6.The Write Feeling
Growing up in a military family,I moved a lot.I mostly went to (36)B with other kids whose parents were also in the military.But when my dad (37)D from the Marines after twenty years of service,I found myself (38)B a civilian school with twelve-year-olds who shared no similar life experience with me.
I was a stranger in a strange land.Everyone in my class had grown up together,and they had no room to(39)D for a newcomer.I wore different clothes,had different thoughts,and spoke with an accent.I(40)A for the first few weeks of school.I had no friends,no activities,and no (41)C of a bright future.To deal with it all,I began(42)C in my diary every day---stories of adventure,of old friends,of feelings that I could not speak.I wrote as if my life depended on it,as if the very next
breath I took could not happen (43)A I wrote down words.
One day,my teacher,Mrs.Bush,came to me and asked why I always sat there writing instead
of playing with others.I told her I enjoyed writing and (44)D writing to playing.She smiled at me and walked away.About three weeks later,Mrs.Bush gave us a writing assignment.I was(45)C that I could now participate in something I knew I excelled in.
That night I worked and worked on the essay.I wrote with great(46)D.It was my one chance to feel important and (47)B by the class.
A few days after we handed in our assignments,Mrs.Bush called me up to the(48)A of the classroom.I stood before thirty pairs of eyes looking at me,and I got (49)C.Was I in trouble?Did I do something wrong?
Then Mrs.Bush told the class how much she (50)A all the work that went into the essay and everyone had done a great job.But,she said,one student stood (51)A as an excellent writer,one with imagination,creativity,and word mastery.That student was me!
The class clapped politely and Mrs.Bush handed me my paper,with the following(52)B on it:"Malinda,you are an excellent writer.You fill your paper with the breathings of your heart.Please keep on writing and share your (53)C of writing with the world.I am proud of you and glad you are in my class."
Mrs.Bush helped me feel a sense of (54)B,a place of purpose,and a way to survive a transition in life.She helped me gain(55)D in myself that stayed with me beyond sixth grade.

20.Family structure is the core of any culture.A major function of the family is to socialize new members ofa culture.As children are raised in a family setting,they learn to become members of the family as well as members of the larger culture.The family provides the model for all other relationships in society.Through the observations and modeling of the behavior of other family members,children learn about the family and society including the values of the culture.Family structure and their inherent relationships and obligations are a major source of cultural difference.
The family is the center of most traditional Asians'lives.Many people worry about their families'welfare,reputation,and honor.Asian families are often extended,including several generations related by blood or marriage living in the same home.An Asian person's misdeeds are not blamed just on the individual but also on the family-including the dead ancestors.
Traditional Chinese,among many other Asians,respect their elders and feel a deep sense of duty toward them.Children repay their parents'sacrifices by being successful and supporting them in old age.This is accepted as a natural part of life in China.In contrast,taking care of aged parents is often viewed as tremendous burden in the United States,where aging and family support are not honored highly.
The Vietnamese family consists of people currently alive as well as the spirits of the dead and of the as-yet unborn.Any decisions or actions are done from family considerations,not individual desires.People's behavior is judged on whether it brings shame or pride to the family.Vietnamese children are trained to rely on their families,to honor elderly people,and to fear foreigners.Many Vietnamese think that their actions in this life will influence their status in the next life.
Fathers in traditional Japanese families are typically strict and distant.Japanese college students in one study said they would tell their fathers just about as much as they would tell a total stranger.The emotional and communication barrier between children and fathers in Japan appears very strong after children have reached a certain age.
Although there has been much talk about"family values"in the United States,the family is not a usual frame of reference for decisions in U.S.mainstream culture.Family connections are not so important to most people.Dropping the names of wealthy or famous people the family knows is done in the United States,but it is not viewed positively.More important is a person's own individual"track record"of personal achievement.
Thus,many cultural differences exist in family structures and values.In some cultures,the family is the center of life and the main frame of reference for decisions.In other cultures,the individuals,not the family,is primary.In some cultures,the family's reputation and honor depend on each person's actions; in other cultures,individuals can act without permanently affecting the family life.Some cultures value old people,while other cultures look down on them.
