1) Now the word "dink" has frequently appeared in the newspapers. Dink is a term combining the first letters of four English words: Double Income No Kids. It refers to the married couples who both have jobs, and live comfortably, but don't want to have a child. While a growing number of young people, especially in big cities, begin to accept and embrace the lifestyle, opinions of it vary from person to person.(通过定义法引出主题:丁克家庭,并表明个人意见,不同的平衡看法)

2) Young married people who like the childless life claim that child rearing means losing too many things in life (主题句). Just imagine how much money-and how much energy--one has to devote to raising a child? When you plan to have a child, you have a responsibility. You have to do a lot of things before he or she comes to the world, and you have to take care of them not only physically but academically and even morally.(持赞成的态度: 因为抚养孩子投入太多,责任太大)

3) Obviously, to ensure a happy and successful life for a child may deprive one of the best and most productive years of one's life.(主题句)You can't enjoy life thoroughly until your child get married: You have to make many sacrifices. Your studies and careers may be affected for this reason and even the whole course of your lives may be altered.(接着整段继续讨论赞成意见,因为培养孩子牺牲太多)

4) Admittedly, having a child is not without any benefits.(主题句) A child may bring much joy and happiness into your life. You can experience much pleasure seeing them growing up and even become the pride of your family. When you get old, they can take care of you. Most significantly, you may die with no regret, for your life will be carried on through your child's blood.(用admittedly转折,引出好的一面,给家庭增添快乐,养儿防老等)

5) A dink family, though unconventional in Chinese society, is a personal choice. It has both advantages and disadvantages. Whether you like it or not often depends on one's personal view of life.(最后表明不偏不倚的看法)
