Fathers in today families are spending more time with their children than at any point in the past
100 years. Although the number of hours the average woman spends at home with her children has
declined since the early 1900s, as more and more women enter the workforce, there has been a decrease
in the number of children per family and an increase in individual attention to each child. As a result,
mothers today in the United States, including those who work part- or full-time, spend almost twice as
much time with each child as mothers did in the 1920s. People (25) ____ raised children in the 1940s

The mystery of twins
What's it like to have a twin? Do you always know what your twin is thinking? Do you feel your
twin's pain when he or she is hurt? Twins are constantly being asked questions like these. But what is it
that makes twins so special?
Statistically, only two of every eighty babies born in America are twins and in some countries, twin
births are even less common. There are two types of twins. Fraternal twins don't always share physical
characteristics such as hair colour, eye colour or blood type. They are no more alike than any other
siblings. Identical twins, on the other hand, look exactly the same. As a result, many identical twins have
a lot of fun swapping identities and trying to trick their friends, teachers and even parents.
Many scientists think that the connection between identical twins is about more than just physical
similarity. They believe that twins often have a very special understanding. There are many fascinating
stories about identical twins who after being separated at birth were reunited some years later. Even
though they grew up under completely different circumstances, with different families, in different
homes and thousands of miles apart, it was discovered that these twins had done many of the same
things. And in some cases the coincidences were amazing.
One of famous example is the 5story of Jim Lewis and Jim Springer. They were separated at four
weeks old in 1940 and grew up forty-five miles apart in Ohio, in the USA. When they were reunited in
1979, they discovered that they're both become policemen. They'd also both married women called
Linda and had sons called James Alan. They'd both got divorced and remarried women called Betty and
they both owned dogs called Toy!
You may think stories like these simply describe a series of coincidences. Or perhaps they show that
there is a remarkable connection between twins which we are only just beginning to understand.
Question 29: What does the writer say about fraternal twins?
A. They don't usually look like their other brothers and sisters.
B. They have exactly the same physical characteristics.
C. They often don't have siblings.
D. They aren't exactly alike.
Question 30: What do scientists find interesting about identical twins?
A. They never look like their parents.
B. They are usually very clever.
C. They often behave badly at school.
D. They may communicate in a special way.
Question 31: According to the text, when twins are separated at birth they _______
A. are often lonely. B. never get on with their families.
C. often make the same choices. D. travel a lot.
Question 32: What happened to Jim Lewis and Jim Springer?
A. They grew up in different countries.
B. They met again as adults.
C. They never got married.
D. They were separated on the day they were born.
