Read the following passage and mark letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to
each of the questions that follow.
 Family life is changing. Two-parent households are on the decline in the United States as
divorce, remarriage and cohabitation are on the rise. And families are smaller now, both due
to the growth of single-parent households and the drop in fertility. Not only are Americans
having fewer children, but the circumstances surrounding parenthood have changed. While
in the early 1960s babies typically arrived within a marriage, today fully four-in-ten births
occur to women who are single or living with a non-marital partner. At the same time that
family structures have transformed, so has the role of mothers in the workplace – and in the
home. As more moms have entered the labor force, more have become breadwinners – in
many cases, primary breadwinners – in their families.
