answer to each of the questions.
Family Life in the United States
Family life in the United States is changing. Thirty or forty years ago, the wife was called a
“housewife”. She cleaned, cooked, and cared for the children. The husband earned the money for
the family. He was usually out working all day. He came home tired in the evening, so he did not
do much housework. And he did not see the children very much, except on weekends.
These days, however, more and more women work outside the home. They cannot stay with
the children all day. They come home tired in the evening. They do not want to spend the evening
cooking dinner and cleaning up. They do not have time to clean the house and do the laundry.
So who is going to do the housework now? Who is going to take care of the children? .
Many families solve the problem of housework by sharing it. In these families, the husband
and wife agree to do different jobs around the house, or they take turns doing each job. For
example, the husband always cooks dinner and the wife always does the laundry. Or the wife
cooks dinner on some nights and the husband cooks dinner on other nights.
Then there is a question of the children. In the past, many families got help with child care
from grandparents. Now families usually do not live near their relatives. The grandparents often
are too far away to help in a regular way.
More often, parents have to pay for child care help. The help may be a babysister or a day-care
center. The problem with this kind of help is the high cost. It is possible only for couples with jobs
that pay well.
Parents may get another kind of help from the companies they work for. Many companies now
let people with children work part-time. That way, parents can spend more time with their
children. Some husbands may even stop working for a while to stay with the children. For these
men there is a new word: They are called “househusband”. In the United States more ans more
men are becoming househusband every year.
These changes in the home mean changes in the family. Fathers can learn to understand their
children better, and the children can get to know their fathers better. Husbands and wives may
also find changes in their marriage. They may have a better understanding of each other.
Question 36: This article is about ____________

Read the following passage and circle the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer
to each of the questions.
After two decades of growing student enrollments and economic prosperity, business
schools in the United States have started to face harder times. Only Harvard's MBA School has
shown a substantial increase in enrollment in recent years. Both Princeton and Stanford have seen
decreases in their enrollments. Since 1990, the number of people receiving Masters in Business
Administration (MBA) degrees, has dropped about 3 percent to 75,000, and the trend of lower
enrollment rates is expected to continue.
There are two factors causing this decrease in students seeking an MBA degree. The first one
is that many graduates of four-year colleges are finding that an MBA degree does not guarantee a
plush job on Wall Street, or in other financial districts of major American cities. Many of the
entry-level management jobs are going to students graduating with Master of Arts degrees in
English and the humanities as well as those holding MBA degrees. Students have asked the
question, "Is an MBA degree really what I need to be best prepared for getting a good job?" The
second major factor has been the cutting of American payrolls and the lower number of entrylevel jobs being offered. Business needs are changing, and MBA schools are struggling to meet
the new demands.
Question 43: What is the main focus of this passage?
A. Jobs on Wall Street
B. Types of graduate degrees
C. Changes in enrollment for MBA schools
D. How schools are changing to reflect the economy
Question 44: The phrase "two decades" refers to a period of _______.
A. 10 years

A. success
B. surplus
C. nurturing
D. education
4
Question 46: Which of the following business schools has NOT shown a decrease in enrollment?
A. Princeton
B. Harvard
C. Stanford

following?
A. reluctance of

C. movement toward
D. extraction from
Question 48: The word "seeking" as used in the passage could best be replaced by ________.
