4. Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow.

Marriage in the country side is an agreement between two families or clans. Marriage in towns is becoming more and more an agreement between a man and a woman though many marriage customs are still being followed.

The rich and educated people get married in churches and later money is spent in lavish ceremonies in various halls in towns. Many marriages in towns are betweenmembers of different tribes although this is one of the factors which may cause conflicts during the course of the marriage.

There are some people who avoid marriage completely. The number of educated women is increasing, they seek equal relationships with men and therefore not ready to get married.

On the other hand, male migrant workers who leave their wives in rural areas are ready to live with other women who can cook for them and maintain their houses. In towns, men and women are looking for ways of living together both in and outside marriage, this however leads to uncertainty and absence of permanency in the social life of urban people.

In rural areas, children are trained by their families to follow their customs, and they often have to go through a process of initiation before they become full members of the tribe.

In town it is not easy for children to receive traditional training mainly because of formal education that takes place in schools. Parents in town have little control over the behavior of their children which may be caused by the single parents and the busy schedule of some of the parents.

Some children escape from their homes and become street children and involve themselves in all sorts of crimes.
