E. Read the passage and choose the best answer
The American family unit is in the process of change. In the first half of the 20
th
century, there
were mainly two types of families: the extended and the nuclear.
An extended family includes mother, father, children and some other relatives, living in the same
house. A nuclear family is composed of just parents and children living under the same roof.
As the American economy had progressed from agricultural to industrial one, people were forced
to move to different parts of the country to get good jobs. These jobs were mainly in the large
cities. Now, in fact, three-quarters of Americans live in urban areas which occupy 2,5 % of the
national total land mass. Of the 118 million in the labor force, only 3 million still work on the
farm.
Since moving for better jobs has often divided the extended family, the nuclear family became
more popular. At present, 55% of the families in the US are nuclear family. But besides the two
types of traditional family groupings, the family is now being expanded to include a variety of
other living arrangements because of divorce. There is an increase in single-parent families, in
which a father or mother live with one or more children. Divorce has also led to blended families,
which occur when previously married men and women marry again and combine the children
from former marriage into a new family. There are also some couples who do not want to have
children to form two-person childless families.

th
