those of 怎么理解

What kind of family usually have two cars? Those of both parents in employment.

those 具有指代作用，因为本身就是一个代词。从对话的内容即可看出：

those 指代上文中的 family。

说明：those 应指代复数名词，指代的family 应该是复数families。问语中的 What kind of famliy 实际是复数意义：What kind of famlies。因为在kind of 的后面，常用单数名词表示复数意义。

答语 Those of both parents in employment. 省略了问语的谓语部分。等于：

Those of both parents in employment usually have two cars. 等于：

Families of both parents in employment usually have two cars.

父母双方都有工作的家庭通常都有两辆车。

Families of both parents in employment：由在职父母组成的家庭。这里，of 不是所属关系，而是表示“组成”关系。

What kind of families usually have two cars?

Those with both parents in employment.

这是中国人写的句子。原句有二处错误：family应为families，of 应为 with。

those为替代词，替代前面出现过的复数名词。在此为替代 the families。

The families with both parents in employment (usually have two cars).
