Read the passage and then answer the following questions.(1,5đ)
Family in the Western world have changed greatly during the last two centuries. Social
scientists say that this change in the family is one of the important changes from a traditional
society to a modern society.
Before the 19
th
century, families usually arranged marriages for their children. Young
people did not decide who they wanted to marry. After they got married, they usually had a
lot of children. In the 19
th
century, most yong people could choose the person they wanted to
marry. A marriage joined two people, not two families. Two peple could get married because
the loved each other, not just because their families wanted them to marry. At the same time,
parents began to realize that they had to take very good care of their children. Before this,
most people did not go to school. The family members all worked together at home. Later,
peole realize that education was necessary for a good life.
Today many parents think that they should have fewer children so they can give each one a
good life. They think it is important for a mother and a father to spend as much time as
possible with their children. They think parents should take care of their health and try to
give them an education. Home is seen as a safe, warm place for all the family members.
