of life in the family house is sweet or no sweet. The S1
cherished ideal of home has great importance for many
people.
This ideal is a vital part of the American dream. This
dream, dramatized in the history of nineteenth-century
European settlers of the American west, was to find
a piece of place, build a house for one’s family, and S2
started a farm. These small households were portraits of S3
independence : the entire family—mother, father, and children.
Even grandparents—live in a small house and working S4
together to support each other. Anyone understood the life S5
and death importance of family corporation and hard work.
Although most people in the United states no longer
live on farms, but the ideal of home ownership is just as S6
strong in the twentieth century, as it was in the nineteenth.

families. But there was a tremendous boom in the home S8
building. The new house, typically in the suburbs,were

Part Ⅴ Writing
A Speech on Tele—education
Ladies and Gentlemen:
With the rapid development of science and technology, tele—education has sped up in our country. While many people speak highly of its advantages, others see more disadvantages deriving from it.
The advocates of tele—education give their arguments as follows. For one thing,
tele—education makes it possible for people in remote areas to learn the subjects they are interested in. For another, people have a wider range of choices as to teachers and lessons through tele—education, because they can listen to the best lessons by the best teachers in the country, or even in the world.
Just as “Every advantage has its disadvantages”, the opponents believe that not all the people have access to tele—education because many are poor. In addition, the students cannot contact teachers, but interpersonal relations are important to their study.
