a. both the little boy and the old woman found what they wanted at last. b. the little boy decided to go home with the old woman c. the old woman gave the little boy a hug to thank him. b. when children grow up and leave home, parents can experience some sadness. they talk about “empty nests,” which are homes where the children have left to make their own lives, like little birds that fly away. now there is another phrase that is common in discussions about adult children: “the boomerang generation.” a boomerang is a hunting tool from australia. when you throw a boomerang in the air, if it doesnt hit anything, it comes back to you. now many adult children, like boomerangs, are returning to their parents homes. the main reason for this is financial. living on your own is expensive. you have to pay for rent, utilities, and food. when the economy is bad, many people lose their jobs. some of them move back in with their parents. some parents worry that this generation is being lazy. they think their adult children must learn to do their own laundry and cook their own food. its difficult to know how many boomerang children there are. experts do not always agree. roderic beaujot, a canadian professor, says that in 2001, 44 percent of canadians between ages 20 and 29 lived with their parents. an american website says that 25 million young american adults live with their parents. michael rosenfeld of stanford university doesnt accept the idea of a boomerang generation. he believes that in the past, more young adults lived with their families. he says that modern children are actually more independent. for example, in the 1940s in the united states, 70 percent of single adults between ages 20 and 29 lived with their parents. but in 2005, only 39 percent of single women and 46 percent of single men at the same age lived with their parents. rosenfelds work shows there are fewer boomerangs now than in the past. the idea of living with your parents as an adult is not new. perhaps what changed was what parents expect. today more people think that children should grow up quickly and become independent.6. according to a canadian professor, what percentage of young canadians lived with their parents in 2001?a. 20 b. 44 c. 29 d. 467. according to michael rosenfeld, when were there a great number of young adults living with their parents?
