The Commission is expected to propose allowing people to choose which legal jurisdiction they would come under, based on their【L1】______or their residency. But the proposal is set to【L2】______because of the very different laws on divorce that apply across the EU. The Commission wants to【L3】______problems over which law to apply when, for example, a married couple from one member state is【L4】______in another member state or when the couple is of different EU nationalities. The【L5】______of member states are said to be【L6】______the idea and responded positively to a【L6】______which followed the【L8】______of a Commission Green Paper. With 15 percent of German divorces each year involving couples of different nationalities, the government of Berlin【L9】______see resolved the issue of which laws should apply. But some member states are expected to resist the【L10】______which would involve allowing different divorce laws to be applied in their countries. For example, in Ireland where the divorce law states a couple must have been separated for four years, establish that their marriage has broken down and be offered【L11】______, a couple from Sweden could apply to an Irish court to allow them to divorce under Swedish law, where divorce can be【L12】______quickly. The Irish government's【L13】______to the Commission on the Green Paper stated: "Ireland is not in favor of allowing【L14】______to choose the applicable law, as this could be open to abuse.., such abuse would be likely to【L15】______most on divorce regimes, such as that of Ireland, which require a relatively long separation period." Ireland, like the UK, however, is allowed to choose whether to "opt-in" to such a proposal under rules agreed in the Amsterdam treaty. Malta has no such【L16】______but could【L17】______the proposal in the Council of Ministers since【L18】______approval will be required. "It is going to lead to【L19】______," said Geoffrey Shannon, Irish expert on the Commission on European Family Law, which examines the【L20】______of EU family law. The proposal would also mean that judges would have to be trained in the divorce law of all 25 member states.

I am honored to be here today,【L1】______Harvard at this celebration of the College Board's half century of working to promote【L2】______and equal opportunity in higher education. Before I say anything else, I want to thank everyone in the room for the work you do every day to make college【L3】______, available, and【L4】______for millions of young people across the country. I want to focus my remarks on a matter of【L5】______to American familiesand to the future of the nation -- restoring education to its proper role as a【L6】______to equal opportunity and【L7】______in our society. This has been an【L8】______in higher education, with great and creative efforts made by many institutions. Earlier this year, we announced a new【L9】______at Harvard aimed at the students from families of low and【L10】______income. Under our new program, families with incomes of【L11】______will no longer be expected to contribute to the cost of attending Harvard for their children. Families with incomes of less than $ 60,000 will also see their【L12】______reduced. We are proud of this effort at Harvard, but we are aware that the programs of individual institutions with means can never be a substitute for our shared【L13】______to provide adequate funding for Pell grants and other financial aid, and for the state and community college systems that make higher education【L14】______and affordable for the【L15】______. There is something empty about【L16】______initiatives that may be right for one institution without attention to their broader impact.【L17】______, we【L18】______if we urge changes in national policy without doing what we can on our own campuses. In this spirit, I want to【L19】______today a problem that is emerging with【L20】______in this nation.

Earthquakes often happen near volcanoes, but this is not always true. The centers of some are【L1】______. The bottom of the sea suddenly【L2】______. The powerful forces inside the【L3】______break the rocks. The coast is shaken and great waves appear. These waves travel【L4】______and rush over the land when they reach it. They are strong enough to【L5】______houses and other buildings; sometimes they break【L6】______than the earthquake itself. Very often fires followed the【L7】______earthquakes. In 1906, the great earthquake at San Francisco broke the gas-pipes. The gas【L8】______, and soon large numbers of fires were burning in the city. The water-pipes were also【L9】______; so it was not possible to put the fires out. There was【L10】______. The Tokyo earthquake of【L11】______happened just before the middle of the day. People were【L12】______on their fires at that time. When the ground shook, the fires shook too.【L13】______were thrown on the different parts of the houses, some of which were【L14】______. Soon 134 fires were burning in the city. What kind of building【L15】______in an earthquake? A building with concrete walls is perhaps the best. A【L16】______will make it even stronger. The frame holds the【L17】______together, and the walls do not easily fall. There is【L18】______of fire because concrete and steel do not burn. The Americans【L19】______the results of the earthquake in San Francisco, and they are convinced that this kind of building is the【L20】______.
