In America, older people rarely live with their adult children. But in many other cultures children are expected to care【C1】______their aged parents. In some parts of Italy, the percentage of adult children who【C2】______with their parents【C3】______65% to 70%. In Thailand, too, children are expected to look after their elderly parents; few Thai elderly live【C4】______. What explains these differences in living arrangements across cultures? Modernization theory【C5】______the extended family to low levels of economic development. In traditional societies, the elderly live with their children in large extended family units for economic reasons.【C6】______with modernization, children move to urban areas,【C7】______old people after in【C8】______rural areas. Yet modernization theory can’t explain why such households were never common in America or England, or why families in fully modernized Italy【C9】______a strong tradition of intergenerational living. Clearly, economic development alone cannot explain【C10】______living arrangements.
Another theory associated intergenerational living arrangements with inheritance【C11】______. In some cultures, the stem family pattern of inheritance overtakes.【C12】______this system, parents live with a married child, usually the oldest son, who then【C13】______their property when they die. The stem family system was once common in Japan, but changes in inheritance laws,【C14】______broader social changes brought【C15】______by industrialization and urbanization, have【C16】______the usage. In 1960 about 80% of Japanese over 65 lived with their children; by 1990 only 60%【C17】______— a figure that is still high【C18】______American standards, but which has been【C19】______steadily. In Korea, too, traditional living arrangements are【C20】______: the percentage of aged Koreans who live with a son declined from 77% in 1984 to 50% just 10 years later.
【C11】
选项
A、models
B、patterns
C、modules
D、patches
答案
B
解析
根据上下文的意思可知,本句意为:另一个理论将两代间的居住安排与遗产联系在一起,故[B]patterns“方式,模式”为答案。下句中也提到了pattern,为此空所填词的原词复现,对填此空起到了很强的提示作用。
