 Unit 7 Help for Single Moms

第7单元 帮助单亲妈妈
 
Donald works in a bank and day after day he sees women come to his till and cash government issuedassistance checks. Most of these women are single moms who receive money from the government to help raise their babies.
 
唐纳德任职于一家银行,每天都有妇女来到他的柜台,兑现政府核发的辅助支票。这些妇女大部分是单亲妈妈,接受政府的补助来抚养子女。
 
The problem is, once their child turns three years old, the parent no longer receives money and needs to find work. Most mothers have been out of work for so long, they don’t have the skills or confidence to find employment.
 
问题是,等到孩子三岁,这些单亲妈妈就不能再接受补助,而必须去找工作。大部分的单亲妈妈已经很久没在工作,既没有技能,也没有自信能够找到工作。
 
Donald came up with an idea. Right away, he put his plan in motion and organized a two-day workshop. At the workshop, he had women role models from the community come give speeches. There were workshops on how to find the right day care, how to write a resume1 and find information on jobs.
 
唐纳德想到一个点子,并立刻付诸行动,他举办了为期两天的研讨会,在研讨会上,他请来社区里的模范妇女来演讲,研讨会的主题包括如何找到适当的托儿所、如何撰写履历,以及寻找工作相关资讯。
 
He had local businesses sponsor the women. They donated money needed to cover babysitting for the weekend and transportation. The women who attended gained skills, confidence and a support group that helped them make positive changes for themselves and their child.
 
他也找来地方企业赞助这些单亲妈妈,捐赠了一笔钱作为周末的保姆费和交通费。前来参加的妇女获得技能、自信和支持的团体力量,协助他们为自己和孩子正面地改头换面。
