many middle-class british couples used (have) three children in the 1960s. since then the birthrate appears (decline) sharply, and by now it seems (level) out at “non-quite-replacement” for the present population. even today, though, near- ly half of the families are likely (end up) with two children, another quarter tend (have) three or more children and only one family in four has a single child. this means that the vast majority of children have at least one brother or sister and family relationships are believed (be) clusters of ties between parents and children, husbands and wives, brothers and sis- ters.
for the last thirty years, fathers have been explicitly urged (help) bring up their children and seem (become) more in- volved. watching the baby being born used (forbid); now it is rare (find) fathers who don’t help their wives in hospital and learn (hug) their children from the first hours of life.
there is a general agreement among british parents of all social groups that children should (teach) (be) kind, (be) honest and (be) fair; and that it is wrong (be) cruel, (steal) or (destroy) the happiness of other people. children are ex- pected (learn) (be) loyal to their own group. it should (note) that the british do not make a cult of “suffering” and “pa- tience against cruelty” like many russians, including dostoevsky. kindness is supposed (be) active and practical. suffer- ing should (relieve), not (admire).
another moral appeal to the british child is “(be) fair”. basic justice should (do). if there are three apples and three children, then each child should (have) one. if there are four children, then the apples should (divide). queueing, taking turns, working out the justice of a situation for everyone: this is very deeply rooted in the british.
in other western countries, different values are stressed. the americans like (teach) their children that everyone has a right to – health, wealth, happiness, education, goods, etc. so it is your duty (insist) on your rights and not (let) other people (take) them away.

The city of my dream since young age, i have always wondered what the perfect place for living would be like. now, i can say that i have a clear vision of the city of my dreams. first of all, it should be situated in a sunny part of our planet and have great weather conditions all year round. secondly, there should be neither crime nor any violence there. only good and kind people can reside in such city. life can be much easier and nicer if everyone is loving and understanding. in the city of my dreams people will live in peace and quiet, without any worries and fears. this city will have excellent roads, cheap stores, many beautiful parks and playgrounds for kids, several entertainment centers and else. the population of the city will be neither too rich, nor poor. people will live equally well. older people will be respected and taken care of. the streets will be clean and safe. there will be no homeless animals in the city of my dreams. another important condition is to have a loyal government. people in the city of my dream will never be in a hurry and they will do only the jobs they like. however, i certainly understand that it’s just my dream, i really hope that at least some of the mentioned qualities will come true in the future.
