Even a child can do it!”Most adults who are learning a second or a foreign language would disagree with this statement. For them, learning a language is a very difficult task. They need hundreds of hours of study and practice, and even this will not guarantee success for every adult language learner.What kind of language learner are you? If you are a successful language learner, you have probably been learning independently, actively, and purposefully. On the other hand, if your language learning has been less than successful, you might do well to try some of the techniques outlined above.51.

In the United States, as in many other countries in the world, the family is changing. A generation or two ago, the traditional family, in which the father was boss, was customary. Now, the modern family, in which both the father and the mother are equal partners, is more common. Although there are several similarities between the traditional family and the modern family, there also exist some very important differences.In conclusion, the American family of today is different from the family of fifty years ago.

It is interesting for me to compare the customs of marriage in the United States with those in my country.Ive lived in the U.S. for four years now, but Im still not comfortable with the customs here. In fact, what seems strange to me is that courting or dating is not always for the purpose of finding a husband or wife. Some people seem to do it as a hobby.Though I can certainly see the advantages of the freedom that is given to American youths to choose whom they will marry and when, I think I still prefer the customs of my home country. I suppose thats because there is not so much guessing and uncertainty.61. Marriage as a social form of male and female relationship exists in all countries of the world, but customs of marriage vary from culture to culture. T62. As a custom in the U.S., it is the parents who decide when their daughter can have a boyfriend and who he should be. F63.

It is done only for the purpose of finding a husband or wife. T65. In Iran, as soon as the wedding ceremony is complete, the bride will go to her husbands home. FPassage 4Every four years, there is the presidential election. In the United States, there are two major political parties, Democratic and Republican. The summer before the election, each of the major political parties holds a presidential-nominating convention.

The convention meets every presidential-election year and picks the partys presidential and vice-presidential nominees. Once the presidential candidate is selected, his running-mate, the vice-presidential candidate, must be chosen.The newly elected President is inaugurated in January during a nationally-televised ceremony. He then moves into the White House and appoints members of his Cabinet.66. In the United States, there are two minor political parties, Democratic and Republican. F67.
