阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在正确选项上划勾。

  One of the United States' most pressing social problems is the breakdown of the two-parent family. Today, millions of American children grow up without fathers. Too often, these children lack the love and guidance they badly need and which they would ordinarily receive from two responsible parents. Traditionally, American parents have placed the needs of their children above their own. At present, however, nearly one half of all new marriages end in divorce, with often troubling results for the children involved. Worse, every year, thousands of teenage, unmarried Americans become mother outside the context of marriage altogether, with generally disastrous results for the mothers and children alike and for American society more generally. However, Chinese continue to value intact (完整的) marriages. This is not to say that Chinese marriages are all perfectthey certainly are not, judging from increasing rates of divorce and extramarital affairsbut the willingness of Chinese to set aside their own needs and stay together for the sake of the children is admirable and worthy of study.

  Families, in whatever form they may take, are important to Americans. If one was to ask a group of Americans what is dearest to them, the majority would say “family”. And yet, so many Americans spend much more time at work-that is, beyond the formal forty-hour work week-than they do with their own families. Obviously, the American economy is one of the most powerful in the world, owing in large measure to “workaholism”. It seems to me that Chinese generally find a better balance between work and family needs than many Americans do. I don't see the number of workaholics in China that I do in the United States (or American organizations in China). Instead, average Chinese tend to head home right after work (in the office or field), have meals together, and spend time with their spouses and children. In addition, Chinese tend to make more time for grandparents, uncles, aunts and cousins than many Americans; in many cases, multigenerational families live together. Of course, like many facts of Chinese society, this is all changing; increasing numbers of “New Chinese” are working longer hours and spending less time with their families than ever before. Still, while Americans do value their loved ones, I think we have something to learn from the Chinese about finding the proper balance between work and family.

1.The main point of the passage is ________.

[  ]

A.family plays a very important role in American

B.there is something about family for Americans to learn from China

C.a proper balance between work and family needs to be found for Americans

D.the Chinese have a proper balance between work and play

2.According to the passage, the traditional American family value is ________.

[  ]

A.Americans love their families more than their jobs

B.Americans often set aside their children's needs

C.Americans have a strong work ethic (伦理)

D.American parents place the needs of their children above their own

3.It can be concluded from the passage that ________.

[  ]

A.in the author's eyes, the breakdown of the two-parent family in China will be more serious than that in the U. S. in the future

B.today young Americans should sacrifice (牺牲) their material comforts in the interests of their children's future

C.Chinese marriage is said to be all perfect

D.at present, nearly one half of all new marriages end in divorce in China

4.What does the author think according to the passage?

[  ]

A.Children living in one-parent families badly need their parents' love and guidance.

B.Children with one-parent need their parents' financial support badly.

C.Chinese value intact marriage more than before.

D.Work is dearest to most Chinese.
