C READING
Read the passage and choose one correct answer for each question
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
The most recent government statistics reveal that only about one third of all current American families fit the traditional
mold and another third consists of married couples who either have no children or have none still living at home Of the final one third, about 20 percent of the total number of American households is single people, usually 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; and the rest, about 7 percent, are single, usually divorced parents, with at least one child
36) With what topic is the passage mainly concerned?
A the traditional American family B The nuclear family
C The ideal family D The current American family
37) The writer implies that
A there has always been a wide variety of family arrangements in the U.S
B racial, ethnic, and religious groups have preserved the traditional family structure
C the ideal American is the best structure
D fewer married couples are having children
38) Who generally constitutes a one-person household?
A A single man in his twenties B A single woman in her late sixties
C An elderly man D A divorced woman
39) According to the passage, married couples whose children have grown or who have no children represent
A 7 percent of households B 20 percent of households
C 33,3 percent of households D 3 percent of households
