11.If life is a beach,then a village in Ireland has come back from the dead after the sand returned 33years later due to a freak tide.
Dooagh beach on Achill Island in the west of Ireland,was washed away in 1984after storms hit the area,leaving a rocky foreshore.The tourists left,causing the hotels and guesthouses as well as the cafes to close down.But in April this year,the sand returned over a ten-day period caused by an unusually high tide that deposited hundreds of thousands of tons of sand along the 300m beach,bringing the beautiful beach back to its former glory.
Emmet Callaghan from Achill Island Tourist Office told the journalist that the people of the island were excited at the beach's reappearing."It's so nice for the villagers to have their beach back.It is an incredible example of the force and power of nature and how the coast can change in a matter of days.Yesterday we had traffic block here in the village with cars and people coming from all over Ireland and the UK to see our new beach,"he said."The people here have always spoken about their days on the beach and how they enjoyed it as children.To have it back with their kids is unbelievable.Now locals are hoping that the beach is given the blue flag status.We already have five blue flag beaches and hopefully,if we keep our beach here,we'll have a sixth."
Dr Ivan Haigh from the University of Southampton said there were two explanations as to why the beach has reformed."It could be a change in sediment (沉積物) supply,from further up or down the coast which has brought a fresh amount of sediment to the beach,"he said."It could also be due to a change in environmental conditions,either a change in the wave climate or a series of tides that have provided the ideal conditions for this beach to reform."
The tourism office and locals hope the new beach will stay,at least for the summer of this year.

58.What can we infer from the article?D
A.Dooagh beach was washed away by storms in 1980s.
B.People worldwide showed great interest in the beach.
C.Blue flag beaches are beneficial to children in the village.
D.The locals had wonderful memories about Dooagh beach.
59.The people on Achill Island hope the new Dooagh beach will stay becauseC.
A.its reforming shows the force and power of nature
B.they will have more beaches to enjoy with families
C.they hope it can help promote the village's economy
D.it will make the summer of the village amazing
60.What might be the reason for the beach's reforming?B
A.The wave climate keeps changing.
B.A series of tides provide the proper conditions.
C.Environmental conditions are getting better.
D.A fresh amount of sediment exists in the sea.

10.Family structure is the core of any culture.A major function of the family is to socialize new members of a culture.As children are raised in a family setting,they learn to become members of the family as well as members of the larger culture.The family provides the model for all other relationships in society.Through the observations and modeling of the behavior of other family members,children learn about the family and society including the values of the culture.Family structure and their inherent relationships and obligations are a major source of cultural difference.
The family is the center of most traditional Asians'lives.Many people worry about their families'welfare,reputation,and honor.Asian families are often extended,including several generations related by blood or marriage living in the same home.An Asian person's misdeeds are not blamed just on the individual but also on the family-including the dead ancestors.
Traditional Chinese,among many other Asians,respect their elders and feel a deep sense of duty toward them.Children repay their parents'sacrifices by being successful and supporting them in old age.This is accepted as a natural part of life in China.In contrast,taking care of aged parents is often viewed as tremendous burden in the United States,where aging and family support are not honored highly.
The Vietnamese family consists of people currently alive as well as the spirits of the dead and of the as-yet unborn.Any decisions or actions are done from family considerations,not individual desires.People's behavior is judged on whether it brings shame or pride to the family.Vietnamese children are trained to rely on their families,to honor elderly people,and to fear foreigners.Many Vietnamese think that their actions in this life will influence their status in the next life.
Fathers in traditional Japanese families are typically strict and distant.Japanese college students in one study said they would tell their fathers just about as much as they would tell a total stranger.The emotional and communication barrier between children and fathers in Japan appears very strong after children have reached a certain age.
Although there has been much talk about"family values"in the United States,the family is not a usual frame of reference for decisions in U.S.mainstream culture.Family connections are not so important to most people.Dropping the names of wealthy or famous people the family knows is done in the United States,but it is not viewed positively.More important is a person's own individual"track record"of personal achievement.
Thus,many cultural differences exist in family structures and values.In some cultures,the family is the center of life and the main frame of reference for decisions.In other cultures,the individuals,not the family,is primary.In some cultures,the family's reputation and honor depend on each person's actions; in other cultures,individuals can act without permanently affecting the family life.Some cultures value old people,while other cultures look down on them.
(Adapted from R.L.Oxford  R.C.Scarcella,"A Few Family Structures and Values Around the Globe")

OutlineSupporting details
(71)Introduction to family structureFamily structure is of great (72)importance/significance in different cultures.
Children raised in a family will gradually learn how to (73)behave in a way which is acceptable in their culture or setting.

In Vietnam,it's not from the personal desires but from family considerations that decisions or actions are done.
In Japan,children are (78)unwilling/reluctant/afraid to share their emotions with father,thus making communication difficult.
Examples of families in the USA Americans don't lay much emphasis on family values.(79)Instead/Howeverpersonal achievement is considered more important.
