　　加拿大的溫哥華1986年剛剛度過(guò)百歲生日，但城市的發(fā)展令世界矚目。以港立市，以港興市，是許多港口城市生存發(fā)展的道路。經(jīng)過(guò)百年開(kāi)發(fā)建設，有著(zhù)天然不凍良港的溫哥華，成為舉世聞名的港口城市，同亞洲、大洋洲、歐洲、拉丁美洲均有定期班輪，年貨物吞吐量達到8，000萬(wàn)噸，全市就業(yè)人口中有三分之一從事貿易與運輸行業(yè)。

　　溫哥華（Vancouver）的輝煌是溫哥華人智慧和勤奮的結晶，其中包括多民族的貢獻。加拿大地廣人稀，國土面積比中國還大，人口卻不足3000萬(wàn)。吸收外來(lái)移民，是加拿大長(cháng)期奉行的國策�？梢哉f(shuō)，加拿大除了印第安人外，無(wú)一不是外來(lái)移民，不同的只是時(shí)間長(cháng)短而已。溫哥華則更是世界上屈指可數的多民族城市�，F今180萬(wàn)溫哥華居民中，有一半不是在本地出生的，每4個(gè)居民中就有一個(gè)是亞洲人。而25萬(wàn)華人對溫哥華的經(jīng)濟轉型起著(zhù)決定性的作用。他們其中有一半是近5年才來(lái)到溫哥華地區的，使溫哥華成為亞洲以外最大的中國人聚居地。

The point is underlined by its converse: in some societies the failure to bear children (or males) is a threat to the marriage and a ready cause for divorce.

　　Beyond all that is the profound significance of children to the very institution of the family itself. To many people, husband and wife alone do not seem a proper family —they need children to enrich the circle, to validate its family character, to gather the redemptive influence of offspring. Children need the family, but the family seems also to need children, as the social institution uniquely available, at least in principle, for security, comfort, assurance, and direction in a changing, often hostile, world.
