In America, older people rarely live with their adult children. But in many other cultures

children are expected to care 【C1】______ their aged parents. In some parts of Italy, the percentage of adult children who 【C2】______ with their parents 【C3】______ 65% to 70%. in Thailand, too, children are expected to look after their elderly parents; few Thai elderly live 【C4】______ . What explains these differences in living arrangements across cultures? Modernization theory 【C5】______ the extended family to low levels of economic development. In traditional societies, the elderly live with their children in large extended family units for economic reasons. 【C6】______ with modernization, children move to urban areas, 【C7】______ old people after in 【C8】______ rural areas. Yet modernization theory can't 'explain why such households were never common in America or England, or why families in fully modernized Italy 【C9】______ a strong tradition of intergenerational living. Clearly, economic development alone cannot explain 【C10】______ living arrangements.

Another theory associated intergenerational living arrangements with inheritance 【C11】______ . In some cultures, the stem family pattern of inheritance overtakes. 【C12】______ this system, parents live with a married child, usually the oldest son, who then 【C13】______ their property when they die. The stem family system was once common in Japan, but changes in inheritance laws, 【C14】______ broader social changes brought 【C15】______ by industrialization and urbanization, have 【C16】______ the usage. In 1960 about 80% of Japanese over 65 lived with their children; by 1990 only 60% 【C17】______ — a figure that is still high 【C18】______ American standards, but which has been 【C19】______ steadily. In Korea, too, traditional living arrangements are 【C20】______ : the percentage of aged Koreans who live with a son declined from 77% in 1984 to 50% just 10 years later.

【C1】

A.about

B.after

C.for

D.over

You may meet Americans who know very little about your country。 If this(1)the case, be patient with them. Unfortunately, little is taught about the cultures or customs of other countries in America schools. The United States has always been separated from older countries by the vast oceans to the East and West of the country. As a(2) Americans have not become so familiar with different cultures and other ways of doing things as is often the case in older countries. If Americans try to help you(3)something that is very familiar to you,if they mistake your country for another of thousands of kilometers away,be patient with them。 The United States has developed into a modern nation in a very short time(4)with many other countries—only about 300 years. Americans have been very busy with growth of the country, with building roads and cities, establishing free education for millions of children, and making inventions, discoveries, and developments to benefit the whole world. The Nation's attention has been on the United States,not on the world, during most of this(5)period.It is only since World War Two (1939-1945) that Americans have been more interested in other parts of the World。
