Researchers from France and Italy discovered that Canadian parents are less strict with their children than mothers and fathers in France and Italy.

“Our most important finding was the difference between Canadians and the others，” said Professor Michel Claes，the lead author of the study.“Canadians focus on independence and negotiation.On the other hand，Italians，for example，exercise more control.We found Canadians seem to focus on negotiation in case of a conflict.”

Claes said Canada，France and Italy were selected for the study because they share important cultural and social factors.“We chose French­Canadians because they share the same language as France，and originally came from France and share certain values.Italy was included because it was considered to have similar，strong and important family values，” he explained.

The researchers examined the emotional ties between parents and their children by questioning 1,256 students aged 11 to 19 years old.

Canadian students reported less control and more free actions，according to the study.Italian parents were stricter and French parents were somewhere in the middle.

Claes explains that the differences lie in education in Canada，France and Italy.

“North America has its own educational values，which promote individualization.Tolerance and comprehension are encouraged.Italy，on the other hand，promotes respect of authority，control，and the need for permission.” he said.

Children from all three countries described their mothers as warm and communicative.Italian and Canadian children had similar feelings about their fathers，and reported high levels of emotional ties.But French fathers were generally thought by their children to be more distant and cold.

“We were surprised by this，” Claes admitted.“It seems as though the relationships between French mothers and their children were becoming closer over time，while fathers maintain a form of distance and coldness，which is more of a source of conflict in France than in the other countries.”

1.Professor Michel Claes believes that Canada，France and Italy ________.

A.have the same family spirit

D.have experienced similar cultural developments

2.How did the researchers carry out the study ?

When looking at Western Europe，we don’t usually think about poverty—but in fact，some people in modern—day Britain are so hard up that they can’t afford to buy food.

Back in 2008.the financial crisis caused a lot of unemployment.Then there were the cuts to the welfare system in 20 1 3 which added to the problem—and many British people fell into debt.It’s estimated that 500，000 people in the UK have turned to food banks，just to get by.

Steph Hagen，who works in a Nottingham food bank，says：“People do not go to a food bank because it's an open door.It’s a case where they go to it because they need to.With our food bank—we are an independent one.and we have limited stocks—everyone who comes through our door has no income.”

There are checks to make sure nobody is abusing the system.If a doctor or a social worker thinks someone needs to use a food bank—even for a short time—they can give them vouchers(凭证).Then the people in need take them along to the food bank and they get handouts for three days.

Churches and individual donors provide most of the food in the banks.But some businesses might help out too.

And what sort of food is offered in food banks? Hagen says：“Basically，we’ve got porridge.We do occasionally get fresh produce but it’s very rare，especially in the winter months.It’s like tinned fruit，tinned ready meals.We have to give out‘no-cooking’food parcels because people can’t afford the gas and electricity”.

Community spirit has a lot to do with food banks.Volunteers say they are a great meeting place for people who are lonely and depressed.And when facing a crisis，some beneficiaries might need to feed not only their belly—but also their soul.

24.According to the text，the food bank is a place_____.

A.which is funded by the government

B.where people can get food randomly

C.which helps poor people live through crisis

D.where there is enough food supplies

25.What does the underlined word“them”in Paragraph 4 refer to?

A.Systems.    B.Doctors.    C.Social workers. D.Vouchers.

26.Why do food banks mainly offer“no-cooking”food?

A.Poor people have no money for gas and electricity.

B.The volunteers hate to supply cooked food.

C.Food banks can’t afford cooked food.

D.This kind of food is easy to store.
