Passage 1
\
Fatherhood is going to have a different meaning and bring forth a different response from every man who hears these words. Some feel pride when they receive the news, while others worry,wondering whether they will be good fathers.Although there are some men who like
children and may have had considerable experience with them,others do not particularly care for children and spend little time with them Many fathers and mothers have been planning and
looking forward to children for seme time.For other couples,pregnancy was an accident that both husband and wife have accepted willingly or unwillingly.
Whatever the response to the birth of a child,At is clear that the change from the role of a husband to that of a father is a difficult task.Yet,unluckily,few attempts have been made to educate fathers in this process.Although numerous books have been written about American mothers,only recently has literature focused on the role of a father.
It is argued by some writers that the change to the father's role,although difficult, is not nearly as great as the change the wife must make to the mother's role.The mother's role seems to require a complete change in daily routine and adjustment,and the father's role is less
demanding,less immediate.However,even though we mentioned the fact that growing numbers of women are working outside the home,the father is still though by many as the breadwinner in the household.

profession I had never seriously considered,through several of my stories had been published.I accepted the job without hesitation,as it wold allow me to wear tie and go by the name of Mr. Davis.My father went by the same name,and I liked to imagine people getting the two of us confused.\Mr Davis the respectable scholar?\

Passage 3
I began to grow up that winter night when my parents and I were returning from my aunt's house,and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for America. We were on the bus
then.was crying,and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me.I remember that l could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for schoolchildren to which I listened every morning.
I do not remember myself crying for this reason again. In fact,I think I cried very little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives.

The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism,but the idea did not come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was really lost — having to study in three schools as a result of family moves.I did not quite know what I was or what I should be. Mother remarried,and things became even more complex for me. Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other.I was often sad, and saw no end to \
My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home. I wrote letters,filled out forms,translated at inter views with Immigration
