How are American families different from Chinese families?
In some ways American families are very different from Chinese ones, and in other ways, they are              American families, for example, enjoy family dinners, support and love each other Just as Chinese families         . The differences come from culture, however. Many Chinese students are              to learn that American teenagers are allowed to make many decisions on their own, and that parents want their children to               home at eighteen.
In most American families, children are encouraged to make their own choices              a young age. They start with small choices and gradually             ones until they graduate from high schoo1. That is when they  face the biggest decision of their lives:             to do next. Parents and family will help with the choice, but the children themselve make the final decision.
Americans                 move back into family homes when they get older. Instead, they prefer to have their own              for as long as possible. It is important to remember that these are cultural differences, and that Americans see this as              of the culture.
