　　句子解析：

　　第一句：

　　Intergenerational households offer more hands and eyes to watch the kids or manage mealtimes made incompatible by overlapping schedules.

　　参考译文：多代际家庭能提供更多双手和眼睛来看孩子，或管理由于日程重叠而冲突的用餐时间。

　　第二句：

　　Schools have always been a huge driver of residential real-estate sales, and even a modest increase in online learning could shock the market.

　　参考译文：学校一直是住宅房地产销售的有力推手，即使在线学习仅小幅增长，也可能动摇这个市场。

　　第三句：

　　Economic pressure may encourage consolidation of some families into bigger but more populous single-family homes, while (disconnecting home values from school districts主语) even somewhat could make them more affordable.

　　参考译文：经济压力也许会鼓励一些家庭合并成人口更多更大的单户家庭，同时房屋价值脱离学区甚至从某种程度能让房屋稍微平价一点。

　　思考题解析：

　　A. apartments inside school districts are much cheaper.

　　(学区内的公寓更便宜)

　　和什么比?

　　和其他房比较，肯定不是更便宜。

　　和以前比，也只是可能会更便宜。

　　总之这个选项就有问题了。

　　这个题就是模仿的2004年第一篇文章的一个题目。

　　B. online learning will deal blows on the working parents

　　(在线学习将会对工作父母造成打击)

　　第二句说了，这是对学区房市场会有打击，因为大家上网课的话，住哪里就不是那么重要了。

　　B选项错误。

　　C. nuclear families may not be seen as preferable as before

　　(核心家庭将不像以前那样被认为是可取的)

　　这是典型的正话反说;

　　既然最后一句说：大家庭会变得可取，

　　那就有可能性，核心家庭不再像以前一样的可取了。

　　C选项正确。

　　D. economic pressure make it hard to support big family

　　(经济压力使养活一个大家庭变得困难)

　　文章说的是会让小家庭变成大家庭。

　　没说养活大家庭变得困难。

　　D选项错误。
