researcher
Washingtom,April4-The United States has more than 90millon families for the first time ,but each contains fewer people on average than ever ,the Census Bureau(统计局) reported today.
The 90,031,000 families in the United States averaged 2.64 members each as of last July 1. ―The reason is, in effect, changes in the age structure,‖ explained Campbell Gibson, a population researcher for the bureau. Most Americans born in the great explosion of births after World War II are mow in their 20‘s and 20‘s when they are most likely to set up families, he said.
The fact that many are doing so increased the number of families from 80.4million in 1980 to 88.8 million in 1986 and past the 90 million mark last summer . At the same time, the average number of people per family dropped from 2.75 in 1935 to 2.65 in 1986 and then to 2.64,Mr Gibson said.
By comparison, the 1970 Census found the average family contained 3.15 people Families averaged more than four people in 1939 and more than five in 1880. The growing number of ever- smaller families is still going on, but Mr Gibson pointed out that family growth was mot the same as population increase in the 1970‘s. The same age factors (因素) that are increasing the number of families also happened then, but in the 1970‘s the proportion(比例) of families in each age group was also growing .
That has not continued in the 1980‘s for a number of possible reasons, Mr Gibson said.
For example, in the 1880‘s more young people have chosen to remain home with their parents instead of setting up housekeeping on their own ,as many did in the 1970‘s. This could be caused by the increasing cost of housing, he said. Delays in marriage while was not the only factor for the family changes.
1.The smaller figure of families reported here is ______.
A.1980 B. 80,400,000 C. 2.64 D. 90 milion
2.How did Mr Gibsin explain the reason of the increase in families? ______

A.peopAle should get married at a later age .
B. The average number of family numbers should be 2.64.
C.It‘s not clear in the report.
A. A. D.Young people should set up housekeeping on their own ,as many did in the
1970‘s.

Camera crew
The famous director of a big and expensive movie planned to film a beautiful sunset over the ocean, so that the audiences could see his hero and heroine in front of it at the end of the film as
they said goodbye to each other for ever. He sent his camera crew(摄制组) out one evening to
film the sunset for him.
The next morning he said to the men, ―Have you provided me with the sunset?‖ ―No, sir.‖ The men answered.
The director was angry. ―Why not?‖ he asked.
―Well, sir,‖ one of the men answered,‖ we are on the east coast here, and the sun sets in the west. We can get a sunrise over the sea, if necessary, but not a sunset.‖
―But I want a sunset!‖ the director shouted.‖ Go to the airport, take the next flight to the west coast, and get one.‖
But then a young secretary had an idea,‖ Why don‘t you photograph a sunrise,‖ she suggested, ―and then play it backwards? Then it would look like a sunset.‖
―That‘s a good idea!‖ the director said. Then he turned to the camera crew and said,‖ Tomorrow morning I want you to get me a beautiful sunrise over the sea.‖
The camera crew went out early the next morning and filmed a bright sunrise over the beach in the middle of the beautiful bay(海湾).Then at nine o‘clock they took it to the director. ―Here it is, sir.‖ They said and gave it to him .He was very pleased.
They all went to the studio(摄影棚). ―All right,‖ the director explained, ―now our hero and heroine are going to say goodbye. Run the film backwards so that we can see the sunset‘ behind them.‖
The‖ sunset‖ began, but after a quarter of a minute, the director suddenly put his face in his hands and shouted to the camera crew to stop.
