Question

 All big cities are quite similar. Living in a modern Asian city is not very d 1       from living in an American city. But it is different from living on farms,however.

  In many parts of the w 2       ,farmers and their families live in villages or towns. In theUnited States,however,each farm family lives on its o 3       fields,often beyond the sight of any neighbors. Instead of t 4       from a village to the fields every morning,American farmers stay on their land throughout the week. They travel to the nearest town on S 5       for shopping or on Sundays for church. The children r 6       on buses to large schools which serve all of the farm families living in the area. In some areas,there are small schools serving a few farm families,and the children walk to school.

  Of course life keeps changing for e 7       ,including farmers. Today there are cars,good roads,radios,and television sets. And of course there are modern m 8       for farming. All of those have changed farm life.

  For many years,however,farming inAmericawas often a lonely way of living. Farmers had to deal with their own p 9       ,instead of getting help from others. They 1 10       to try new methods,and to trust their own ideas instead of following older ways.
