Question

 

Since the beginning of the century great changes have been made in families.  It is because of the development of industry 1        families have become much smaller than they 2       (be) .

In the past,when more people lived in the countryside,the typical family had many children. In a family,parents and their children lived with grandparents. Often,too,uncles and aunts lived nearby. Women 3          (tradition) stayed at home,with their husbands 4       (work) in the fields.But since industry became more important than agriculture,families have become smaller. Moreover,industry requires workers 5        are ready and able to move off the land and to move to 6       (where) necessary,and more and more women began to earn money by working outside. So smaller families can be moved from place to place.

In the future,because of 7       (industrialize) ，a typical family will be required to move even more often than now,8       families will be even smaller. The typical family may remain childless and consist only 9       a man and a woman. A smaller number of families may raise children as their chief occupation,10       (leave) the childless families free to move from job to job.
