However, it had twelve-inch hooked claws on each of its hind legs. While the T-rex had short, stubbyforelimbs, the Utahraptor had large, powerful arms equipped with ten-inch claws.

Assaulted from all quarters, theMuslim world turned in on itself. Henceforth modernism became alien. Should cultural and religious identity beaffirmed by rejecting this modernism, which the West symbolized? Or, on the contrary, should the road ofmodernization be embarked upon with resolution, thus risking loss of identity? Neither Iran, nor Turkey, nor theArab world has ever succeeded in resolving this dilemma. Even today we can observe a lurching alternationbetween phases of forced westernization and phases of extremist, strongly xenophobic traditionalism.The Arab world—simultaneously fascinated and terrified by these Franj [Franks], whom they encountered asbarbarians, but whom subsequently managed to dominate the earth—cannot bring itself to consider the crusades amere episode in the bygone past. It is often surprising to discover the extent to which the attitude of the Arabs (andof Muslims in general) towards the West is still influenced, even today, by events that supposedly ended someseven centuries ago.

(A)handed (B)told (C)took (D)turnedAs little as thirty years ago, few people questioned the gender roles that had prevailed for centuries. Theconventional wisdom was that a woman’s place was in the home and that a man’s main responsibility to his family was toput food on the table. In the 1970s and 1980s, however, greater numbers of working women meant that men were nolonger the sole breadwinners. A father’s emotional involvement with his family also became more important. Forty yearsago, almost no husbands were present in the delivery room when their wives gave birth. Today, it is generally expectedfor male partners to attend childbirth classes, to be there for the delivery, and to take more responsibility for child rearingthan their fathers or grandfathers did.In addition to society’s changing views of the role men play in relation to childcare, social scientists also found thatthe presence of the father in the home can contribute to lower juvenile crime rates, a decrease in child poverty, and lowerrates of teenage pregnancy. Differences in parenting styles between men and women are also believed to contribute tochildren’s ability to understand and communicate emotions in different ways. The research supports the claim that theabsence of a father in the family is the single biggest problem in modern society.
