PASSAGE 1: Family types vary in different countries and among different cultures. In Western, industrialized societies, the nuclear family ranks as the most common family type. It consists of a father, a mother and their children. But nuclear families exist alongside many other types of family units. In the single- parent family, for example, a mother or a father heads the family alone. A blended family is formed when a divorced or widowed parent remarries. As divorce rates have risen, the number of single- parent and blended families has increased. In many parts of the world, parents and children live together with other family members under the same roof. These complex families usually contain several generations of family members, including grandparents, parents and children. They may also include brothers or sisters and their families, uncles, aunts and cousins. Even when relatives do not live together, they still consider themselves members of the same extended family. In Latin American and Hispanic American cultures, the extended family includes grandparents, uncles, aunts and cousins. 1. The nuclear family ranks as the most common family type ___. A. in many industrialized countries B. in countries with nuclear weapons C. that leads to the divorce of parents D. that consists of more than two generations 2. In the single-parent family, ___. A. only one parent lives with his or her child or children B. there are often no children C. the number of blended children has increased children live alone D. children live with their grandparents 3. Grandparents, parents and children are mentioned as ___. A. the three typical generations of an extended family B. three branches of a family tree C. the closest and happiest relatives in family units D. a complex combination 4. The second paragraph is about ___. A. American cultures. B. relatives and family members. C. the relationship between family members. D. the extended family. 5. The word “blended” in paragraph 1 is closest meaning to ___. A. complex B. married C. formed D. mixed PASSAGE 2: It is common in Japan for three generations to live under one roof. This is becoming less common today, but still exists, certainly in the countryside. Husbands in Japan give their salaries to their wives. They are returned a sum of money as pocket money; otherwise how to use the rest is the wife’s decision. The finances of a family, though, are the responsibility of the women who handle most of the household expenses. There are exceptions in instances when something of value, like a car, is being bought. This is changing with more women going to work Japanese fathers in contemporary urban households spend so much time at work, and the company demands on them are so great, It means that they often really have very little time or energy to spend with
  14. Page 14 their children. The responsibility for raising children, overseeing the education falls onto the mothers. Mothers play an enormous role in the lives of their children and the bond is very strong. Babysitters are rarely used and mothers often sleep with their babies. A mother will also spend hours with children doing school work. Few Japanese men help with housework. There is more pressure today for this change. Most families in Japan today are nuclear families, such as those in the United States. That is to say that a married couple lives together with their children, perhaps with one grandparent. But for the most part, the Japanese family today looks much like the American family. 1. In Japan, extended families are still popular___. A. in big cities B. in the countryside C. everywhere D. in urban areas. 2. A Japanese woman is responsible for all EXCEPT ___.

Most families in Japan nowadays may be___. A. extended families B. three generation families C. the same as traditional ones D. similar to those in the western PASSAGE 3: Except for a few unfortunate individuals, no law in this world can go against the fact that for most of us our family is an essential part of our lives. The moment you enter this cruel world, where each man is for himself, there are some near and dear ones out there who will do anything to ensure your happiness. We are nothing more than a vulnerable and fragile object, without someone taking care of us on our arrival in this world. Despite all the odds, your family will take care of your well-being, and try their best to provide you the greatest comforts in the world. No one out there, except your family must forgive the endless number of mistakes you may make in your life. Apart from teaching you forgive and forget lessons, they are always there for you, when you need them the most. Family is the only place where children study a lot after school. In school, teachers teach children about the subjects which will help them to find a good job in future. But at home, parents teach children about good habits. They are not only the elements which help the children to shape their personalities but they also prepare them a sustainable and bright future. A good family makes a greater society. Father, mother, children have to work in order to build a strong family. If any one of them fail, the whole family may collapse. The good name of the whole family can be ruined by a single member of the family. In order to avoid that unhappy scenario, every family member has to work hard and try their best. As a result, they will set good examples for the whole society. Families impact very much on society and societies create countries. 1. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true? A. We will effortlessly be damaged without our family. B. Some laws in the world may oppose the functions of family. C. Family is a vital part of your life. D. Not everyone has a family 2.

To children, family plays a role in ___. A. teaching them academic subjects B. developing their personal traits C. helping them to find a good job D. encouraging them to study a lot at school 4. The word "They" in the passage refers to ___. A. children B. teachers C. good habits D. parents 5. The word "ruined” in the passage is closest in meaning to ___.

The birth of fragile object PASSAGE 4: For working parents in the U.S., the challenge of juggling careers and family life continues to be a front-burner issue - one that is being recognized by a growing number of employers who have adopted family-friendly policies such as paid leave. But while few Americans want to see a return to traditional roles of women at home and men in the workplace, one reality persists: Women most often are the ones who adjust their schedules and make compromises when the needs of children and other family members collide with work, Pew Research Center data show. In a 2013 survey, we found that mothers were much more likely than fathers to report experiencing significant career interruptions in order to attend to their families' needs. Part of this is due to the fact that gender roles are lagging behind labor force trends. While women represent nearly half of the U.S. workforce, they still devote more time than men on average to housework and child care and fewer hours of paid work, although the gap has narrowed significantly over time. Among working parents of children younger than 18, mothers in 2013 spent an average of 14.2 hours per week on housework, compared with fathers' 8.6 hours. And mothers spent 10.7 hours per week actively engaged in child care, compared with fathers' 7.2 hours. Another factor is the way that society views the bond between mothers and their children. In a 2012 Pew Research survey, the vast majority of Americans (79%) rejected the notion that women should return to their traditional role in society. Yet when they were asked what is best for young children, very few adults (16%) said that having a mother who works full time is the “ideal situation.'' Some 42% said that having a mother who works part time is ideal and 33% said what's best for young children is to have a mother who doesn't work at all. Even among full-time working moms, only about one-in-five (22%) said that having a full-time working mother is ideal for young children. 1. According to paragraph 1, paid leave___. A. is a burning issue associated with the tension between career development and family life. B. an effective solution to the tension between career development and family life.

Men often need to adjust their career needs to take care of the family. B. Men choose to be stay at home dads to take care of the family. C. Most often it's women who adjust their careers for family life. D. Traditional roles of men and women have changed, so women have focused on their careers without any compromises. 3.

The word 'rejected' most closely means___. A. supported C. refused B. mentioned D. Shared 10. The survey in paragraph 3 addresses which of the following? A. bond between mothers and their young children B. bond between mothers and work-related issues C. bond between mothers and social roles D. bond between mothers and fathers PASSAGE 5: The nuclear family, consisting of a mother, father, and their children, may be more an American ideal than an American reality. Of course, the so called traditional American family was always more varied than we had been led to believe, reflecting the very different racial, ethnic, class, and religious customs among different American groups, but today diversity is even more obvious. The most recent government census statistics reveal that only about one third of all current American families fits the traditional mold of two parents and their children, and another third consists of married couples who either have no children or have none still living at home. An analysis of the remaining one third of the population reveals that about 20 percent of the total number of American households are single people, the most common descriptor being women over sixty-five years of age. A small percentage, about 3 percent of the total, consists of unmarried people who choose to live together. The rest, about 7 percent, are single parents, with at least one child. There are several easily identifiable reasons for the growing number of single-parent households. First, the sociological phenomenon of single-parent households reflects changes in cultural attitudes toward divorce and also toward unmarried mothers. A substantial number of adults become single parents as a result of divorce. In addition, the number of children born to unmarried women who choose to keep their children and rear them by themselves has increased dramatically. Finally, there is a small percentage of single-parent families that have resulted from untimely death. Today, these varied family types are typical and, therefore, normal. In addition, because many families live far from relatives, close friends have become a more important part of family life than ever before. The vast majority of Americans claim that they have people in their lives whom they regard as family although they are not related. A view of family that only accepts the traditional nuclear arrangement not only ignores the reality of modern American family life, but also undervalues the familial bonds created in alternatives family arrangements. Apparently, many Americans are achieving supportive relationships in family forms other than the traditional one 1. Which of the following is the main topic of the passage? A.

The objective of family life education is to enrich and improve the quality of individual and family life by providing knowledge and skills needed for effective living. FLE emphasizes processes to enable people to develop into healthy adults and to realize their potential. Family life education helps people to work together in close relationships and facilitates the ability of people to function effectively in their personal lives and as members of society. While various professionals assist families, it is the family life educator who incorporates a family-systems, preventive, and educational approach to individual and family issues. Family life education includes knowledge about how families work; the inter-relationship of the family and society; human growth and development throughout the life span; both the physiological and psychological aspects of human sexuality; the impact of money and time management on daily life; the importance and value of education for parenting: the effects of policy and legislation on families; ethical considerations in professional conduct; and a solid understanding and knowledge of how to teach and/or develop curriculum for what are often sensitive and personal issues. A professional code of ethics provides guidelines when confronted with challenging and difficult ethical dilemmas. They serve notice to the public, and profession, as to the principles and values that will guide decision making under such circumstances. The ethical principles put forth in this Code of Ethics are standards of conduct in which Family Life Educators consider in ethical and professional decision making. 1.
