“ Home, sweet home” is a phrase that express an

essential attitude in the United States. Whether the reality

of life in the family house is sweet or no sweet. The            S1         

cherished ideal of home has great importance for many

people.

    This ideal is a vital part of the American dream. This

dream, dramatized in the history of nineteenth-century

European settlers of the American west, was to find

a piece of place, build a house for one’s family, and          S2         

started a farm. These small households were portraits of         S3         

independence : the entire family—mother, father, and children.

Even grandparents—live in a small house and working         S4         

together to support each other. Anyone understood the life      S5         

and death importance of family corporation and hard work.

     Although most people in the United states no longer

live on farms, but the ideal of home ownership is just as       S6         

strong in the twentieth century, as it was in the nineteenth.

When U.S. soldiers came home before World War II for       S7         

example, they dreamed of buying houses and starting

families. But there was a tremendous boom in the home       S8         

building. The new house, typically in the suburbs,were

often small and more or less identical, but it satisfied         S9         

a deep need. Many regarded the single-family

house the basis of their way of life.                       S10
