雅思口语 part1考题：family

1 the balck sheep of the family 败家子

Who are the people in your family?

Well, I have an extended family living in Beijing. In addition to my parents and I, my cousin and his family live nearby. Actually, my cousin is kind of the black sheep of my family. He's always goffing off in his studies and has no ambitions. 在北京我有一个大家庭。除了我和我爸妈，我的表兄和他的家人也住在附近。实际上我的表兄有点败家子的味道。他在学习上总是偷懒，没有任何理想抱负。

（nuclear family 核心家庭 ，这个表达没有错误，但是中国学生说得有点多，可以换成：My family is quite small. 或者My family is quite typical）

2 blood is thicker than water 血浓于水，血缘的关系比其他的关系更加牢固

如：You know what they say about blood being thicker than water. My cousin will probably end up working in his father's family.You know there is a lot of nepotism in my country. 血浓于水，我的表兄可能最终会在他老爸的公司工作，毕竟在我们国家裙带关系很多。
