I/ Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer.
Traditions, saying, beliefs, language, and values are just a few things that make up our culture. Culture is the framework in which families are structured. It shapes our expectations and ideals. Culture plays a part in the meaning of marriage and our roles as husbands, wives, children and parents.

Culture affects the roles that spouses take within marriages, the age at marriage and number of children a couple have, the meaning of divorce, cohabitation and non-marital childbearing, and the way parents raise children. Understanding how relationships and marriages vary across cultural contexts, and how they are similar, we will be able to identify the unique ways that marriages and family life affect people of various cultures. As a result, we will be able to help families and sustain happy marriages.
A cross cultural marriage or similar love relationship can be extremely exciting.

Jean spent her first few years in Hooper and her family moved to Otsego early in her life.

Although she had much responsibility at home, Jean thoroughly enjoyed school and was an excellent student. She went on to graduate 10th in her class at Otsego High School in 1953.
While still in high school, Jean met a young man named Charles "Chuck" Holly, at a dance in Alamo; and they were quite taken with each other.

In 1964, Chuck and Jean were overjoyed with the birth of their son, Chuck, who brought great joy into their lives.

Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer.
For approximately the last 100 years women have been fighting for the same rights as men, especially around the turn from 19th to 20th century with the struggle for women's suffrage and in the 1960s with second-wave feminism and radical feminism, and were able to make changes to the traditionally accepted feminine gender role. However, most feminists today say there is still work to be done.
Numerous studies and statistics show that even though the situation for women has improved during the last century, discrimination is still widespread: women earn a smaller percentage of income than men, occupy lower-ranking job positions than men and do most of the housekeeping work. However, there may be some reason for this, as some studies have indicated that many jobs which are perceived to be male-dominated usually have longer hours, necessitate long periods of exposure to the elements, are higher risk and require a fair amount of physical strength.
When feminism became a conspicuous protest movement in the 1960's, critics often argued that women who wanted to follow a traditional role would be discriminated against in the future and forced to join, the workforce. Many women, especially single parents are denied this choice due to economic necessity. In theory, feminism is the belief that a woman should have the right to make her own decisions. Those women who choose to pursue careers and higher education are more and more appreciated.
- After a long time of struggling, women have got a quite equality to men in every aspect so far.
a. True b. False c. No information
- According to some studies and statistics, men spend more time doing housework than women do.
a. True b. False c. No information
- Thanks to the equality between men and women, women can earn as much money as men do.
a. True b. False c. No information
- Jobs which require a fair amount of physical strength are usually male-dominated.
a. True b. False c. No information
- The amount of women who get higher education has outgrown that of men.
a. True b. False c. No information
