Cloze I
Parents have to
do much less for their children today than they
used to do, and home has become much less of a
workshop. Clothes can be bought 1 made,
washing can go to the 2 , food can be bought
cooked, canned or 3 ,
bread is baked and 4
by the baker, milk arrives on the 5 , meals can
be had at the restaurant, the 6 canteen, and
the school dining-room.
It is unusual now
for father to 7 his trade or other employment at
home, and his children rarely, if 8 , see him at
his place of work. Boys are 9 seldom trained
to follow their father’s 10 , and in many towns
they have a fairly 11
choice of employment
and so do girls. The young wage-earner often earns
good money, and soon 12 a feeling of
economic independence. In textile areas it has
long been 13 for mothers to go out to work, but
this practice has
become so widespread that
the working mother is now a not 14 factor in a
child’s home life, the number of married
women
15 employment 16 more than doubled in the last
twenty-five years. With mother earning and his
elder
children drawing 17 wages, father is
seldom the dominant figure 18 he still was at
the beginning of the century.
When mother
works economic advantages accrue, but children
lose 19 of great value if mother’s employment
prevents her from being home to 20 them when
they return from school.

In
the morning it started to rain. It was the first
rain of the new year and it 1 , in and extremely
violent manner,
the beginning of the rainy

rain has started, the drivers had had only the big
puddles to miss, but later on, when the
drains
had 13 and the whole road swam with water all
dangerous pits and 14 had been hidden, and the
faces
peering through the windscreens peered
even more anxiously than before. But often the
faces inside the taxis ceased to
15 to look
out at all, for water had splashed up to the 16
system, and the engine stopped just as surely and
abruptly as
it would have done, 17 the car
actually 18 into one of the drains it had so 19
missed only a few moments
