7、part there are four passages. Each passage is followed by a number of comprehension questions. Read the passages and choose the best answer to each question. Then, mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.15 We first think of the traditional or nuclear family. This
8、 is a two-generation family, the father and the mother and their own children. Most couples wanted to have four children, two boys, two girls.Some nuclear families, however, may add one or more grandparents to come to live with them, that is three generations. This kind of family with grandparents,
9、parents, and grandchildren is called an extended family. This family type was not very common during the later half of the twentieth century, but its becoming more common now as an elderly grandparent moves in to live with a son or daughter. This is more possible now that American homes have become
10、larger. What is interesting, however, is that after the grandchildren move out of the home and start their own families, this extended family shrinks back to a nuclear family, with just two generations again living together, a grandparent and parents, with the grandchildren coming only for occasiona
11、l visits.Now, the fatherless or motherless family is one kind of what we call a single-parent family. In the fatherless family its just the mother and her children. As I said, this can be the result of the husbands death, of an unmarried mother, of a separation or divorce. There are also a growing n
12、umber of motherless families-where the father raises the children, for any of the same reasons. A motherless family may also be fatherless, but still a family with one adult. This is becoming more common in the big cities where a grandmother will raise her daughters children while the daughter goes
13、elsewhere to work.One other new kind of family is becoming increasingly more common. A single parent with one or more children will marry again. Perhaps the other parent is also a single parent. Together they will start what is called a blended family, which blends together or combines the children
14、from two other families.16 An extended family usually has _.（A）two generations（B） three generations（C） four generations（D）one generation 17 Who usually looks after the children in a both motherless and fatherless family in America?（A）The childrens aunt.（B） The childrens nursery or school.（C） The chi
15、ldrens grandmother.（D）The childrens neighbour. 18 How is a blended family formed?（A）A blended family is formed by two single-parent families.（B） A blended family is formed by a nuclear family and a grandparent.（C） A blended family is formed by a nuclear family and grandparents.（D）A blended family is
16、 formed by two fatherless families. 19 What is true to the fact in America?（A）There are more and more members in a family.（B） There are less and less members in a family.（C） There is an increasing number of grandparents who refuse to lood after their grandchildren.（D）There is an increasing number of
17、 grandparents who live separately from their children. 20 Which of the following is the best title of this passage?（A）Family（B） American Families（C） Family Types（D）Four Family Types in America 20 Key James, Secretary of Health and Human Resources in the Virginia State government, loves to turn the t
18、ables on those who dont think its possible to be middle-class, conservative, educated and still be truly black. Once, during an abortion debate, a woman in the audience angrily told James she was so middle-class she didnt have a clue about real African American life. “If you understood what these wo
19、men go through,“ the woman said, “you would realize that abortion is their only choice.“James then asked the woman to consider a poor black mother on welfare. She already has four children and an alcoholic husband who has all but abandoned the family. Now she discovers another child is on the way. “
20、How would you counsel that woman?“ asked James.“Have an abortion,“ the woman responded. “That child would have a very poor quality of life.“I have a vested interest in your answer,“ James said. “The woman I described was my mother. I was the fifth of six children born into poverty. And, in case your
21、e interested, the quality of my life is just fine!“21 Kay James _.（A）is not a black（B） is a poor black mother（C） has five brothers and sisters（D）has a hard life 22 “To turn the tables“ means _.（A）to move the tables（B） to carry the tables away（C） to gain courage（D）to gain an advantage after having be
