C Reading
Exercise 1. Reading the text, and choose the best answers.
Children can learn a lot from doing household chores. Doing chores helps children learn
about what they need to do to care for themselves, a home and a family. They learn skills
they can use in their adult lives, like preparing meals, cleaning, organizing and keeping a
garden. Being involved in chores also gives children experience of relationship skills like
communicating clearly, negotiating, cooperating and working as a team.
When children contribute to family life, it helps them feel competent and responsible.
Even if they don’t enjoy the chore, when they keep going they get the feeling of satisfaction
that comes with finishing a task.
Sharing housework can also help families work better and reduce family stress. When
children help out, chores get done more quickly, and parents have less to do. This frees up
time for the family to do fun things together.

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 together with 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 includes
grandparents, uncles, aunts and cousins.

Exercise 3. Read the passage and choose the best answer A, B, C or D to each
question.
Comparing society 40 years back to activities and happenings of today, I appreciate that
family values have changed over time. In our world today, a lot of vices are holding sway and
these vices are quickly displacing virtues because we have compromised family values.
Today children are growing up in a society that is technologically driven and are learning
at a much faster pace than in the 70s. The fast pace of learning has kept parents lagging in
getting a hold of their kid’s moral values and helping them understand what family values
used to be.
Family values have changed over time from my perspective, seeing all that is happening
in our world today. To better appraise this conclusion let us understand the definition of
family values. Family values are traditional values that are passed on from generation to
generation within the family that address the family roles, family structure, function,
attitude, and ideas. These traditional values are like unwritten codes that guide the actions
of individuals. They help people decide what is right or wrong.
The family is a powerful institution with tremendous influence on society, and when these
family values become promoted by parents within the family, society will feel the effect.
1. What is the main topic of the passage?
A. Family Values have changed over time. B. Traditional values have lost.
C. Family values in modern society become better. D. What are
traditional family values?
2. In the first paragraph, why does the author mention that a lot of vices are holding sway?
A. Because family values have changed over time.
B. Because we have compromised family values.
C. Because virtues are being displaced.
D. Because so many things have changed for 40 years.
3. The second paragraph is mainly about _______.
A. the importance of technology B. the fast pace of modern life
C. the fast pace of life in the 70s D. the impact of the fast pace of learning
4. The word “driven” in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to_______.
A. transported B. turned C. oriented D. controlled
5. The word “codes” in the third paragraph can be best replaced with_______.
A. laws B. manners C. etiquettes D. habits
6. Which of the following statements is true according to the third and the fourth
paragraphs?
A. Family values are any values that are passed on from generation to generation.
B. Family values can be passed outside the family as long as they address the family
roles, family structure, function, attitude, and ideas.
C. Traditional family values guide the actions of individuals which help them decide what
is right or wrong.
D. The society won’t be affected if family values become promoted by parents within the
family.

Exercise 5. Read the passage and write True or False next to the sentences.
The majority of jobs today are reserved for men but that should not mean that women
cannot make their career. Men are nowadays entering the jobs which are considered for
women like nursing and women, therefore, have been allowed to enter into job vacancies
that are left by men. Many television shows have portrayed successful women’s career
stories.
Various changes have been seen and impacted the role of women in society. Now, women
have gained a lot of ground in politics, the workforce, social welfare, etc. They are even more
powerful within their households. From a time when women were not able to voice their
opinions to the modern time when women started ruining presidential campaigns, the
lifestyle of a woman has undergone a drastic transformation. The modern society and
workforce are filled with powerful women who play their leadership roles in offices in a very
impactful and efficient manner.
Women are in powerful positions in various large-scale companies. Working outside
doesn’t mean women do not do household chores. Women do two full- time jobs - the one at
the workplace and the one at home. Women nowadays are becoming keepers of the home,
planners of family events, errand runners, and bill payers. According to studies, when the
economical and political organization of a society changes, women come to the forefront and
help the family to adjust to new challenges. Women are likely to be the prime initiator of
outside assistance, and they play an important role in facilitating changes in family life.

Exercise 6. Read the lecture to parents, and mark the sentences T (true), F (false),
or NG (not given).
Some people point out that today's children have more homework and have less time to
do chores around the house. If they're teenagers, they also don't have much energy because
their bodies and brains are developing very quickly, and that can be tiring for them.
Children also say, 'It's not my house, why should I clean it?' Actually, they use it, and if
they don't learn how to do basic chores like cooking and cleaning, how can they look after
themselves when they leave home? Helping with chores is training in basic survival skills.
It's also a good way to remind children that they are a part of something bigger than
themselves the family. And, by giving them some responsibilities, you're also telling them
that you trust them, and that increases their confidence.
But it's often tricky to get children to do chores. There is no 'I' in the words 'work' or
'chores', and most kids only like to do things that help them or give them something back
immediately. The best way to deal with this is to make some family rules and the family
chore chart, and also point out some of the long-term benefits: studies show that children
and teenagers who help around the house are happier and have better family values. When
they take out the rubbish, lay the table or clean the floor, they are actually learning how to
become more helpful members of society.
The most important thing is to help children start good habits early, and also help them
become good and responsible citizens in the future.
1. Children today don't have as much homework as children in the past. ______
2. Teenagers have more energy than young children.
______
3. It's important for children to learn how to cook and clean. ______
4. Chores remind children of their responsibility to other people. ______
5. Children who do chores feel more confident. ______
6. Most children like doing things that have long-term benefits. ______
7. Parents are usually very lazy. ______
8. Children who do chores become better members of society. ______

Read the passage, and choose the correct answer A, B, C or D for each question.
Home Life in Japan
It is common in Japan for three generations to live under the same 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
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 their children. The responsibility for raising children, overseeing the
education fall 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 schoolwork. Few Japanese men
help with housework. There is more pressure today for this to 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.
36. In Japan, extended families are still popular ________.
A. in big cities B. in the countryside C. everywhere D. in urban areas
