1、A friend of mine, teaching abroad, was immensely amused by the question, "Are English peasants allowed to go to the theatre?" Anybody who can pay for a 1 may go to the theatre in England, though only two percent choose to do so. This is not because theatres are expensive, 2 because most people prefer to watch television, football matches or to gamble.
The word "peasant" is not used in England, except as an insult or as a joke. We have no peasant class, only 3 laborers. We do not have a system, as in other parts of Europe, 4 people inherit a small piece of 5 and work it for substance. We have farms, which can employ laborers for wages. Such people are 6 as "agricultural workers". They are not highly paid out but they can manage to live fairly well.
Farming is becoming more 7 . These days young men starting work on the farm are expected to spend some more time at agriculture college to learn how to do the job 8 . English agriculture is very 9 and we are now self-sufficing in grain: 10 , we have a surplus, which is stored by the Common Market and which we have to pay to store, through our taxes.

2、When do people decide whether or not they want to become friends? During their first four minutes together, according to a book 1 Dr. Leomard Zuninn. In his book, Contact: The First Four Minutes, he offers this advice to anyone 2 in starting new friendships: "Every time you meet someone in a social 3 , give him your undivided attention for four minutes. A lot of people's lives 4 change if you did just that."
You may have noticed that the 5 person does not give his undivided attention to someone he has just met. He keeps looking over the other person's shoulder, as if 6 to find someone more interesting in another part of the room. If 7 has ever done this to you, you probably did not like him very much.

3、 Why are children so different in their response 1 the same situation? Some research suggests that styles of parenting may affect children's 2 in dealing with their world.

4、In 1959 the average American family paid $989 1 a year's supply of food. In 1972 the family paid $1,311. That was a price 2 of nearly one-third.
Every family has had this sort of experience. Everyone agrees that the cost of 3 a family has risen sharply. But there is less agreement when reasons for the rise are being discussed. Who is really 4 ?

They particularly blame those who 9 the farm products after the products leave the farm. These include truck drivers, meat packers, manufacturers of packages and other food containers, and the owners of stores where food is sold.

6、One of the most common complaints I hear from families is that they are not close. They may be close in proximity, but still not feel close as a 1 . They may live next door or in the same house, but not feel emotionally.
Closeness is about attitude. We feel close when we feel understood, when we feel loved and when we simply enjoy being together. We may live far apart and still feel close, or we may 2 a home yet feel distant.
Closeness is a family trait that 3 over time. It is planted by love, watered by honest sharing and fed by true listening. It grows slowly and sometimes 4 years to mature; but it's roots grow deep. It can 5 most storm and sustain a family through the most difficult time.
I received a letter from a reader in Hawaii. She 6 out that the CEO of one of the island's largest banks was considering a run for governor. Since he was well-liked, he seemed to have a good 7 of winning.
But before filing papers, he changed his mind, stating that he wanted to spend more time with his family. Not that elected officials cannot be family-oriented, but he felt he needed more time at home than the job 8 .
Ronald A Young, in the Honolulu Advertiser, said this about the candidate's decision："No matter what you accomplish in the business world or the social world, if you fail the family, then you have not accomplished much. Failure or success does not 9 in the material wealth you provide them. It is measured by what of yourself you give to them."
He made a decision to give the best of himself to his family. He 10 family closeness first, despite pressure to put more time elsewhere. It's likely a decision he'll never regret.
