Welcome to the Food Cooperative Society
    The food cooperative society was established last year to meet students’ needs. We express our sincere appreciation to our members for the generous support you have extended to us. Providing fresh and healthy food is the objective of our service. The food cooperative society assures our members of foods without chemical additives and pesticides. Now, we welcome more students to join us and look forward to seeing you in the next membership meeting. The students who join the coop can enjoy many advantages, and the food co-op ensures that the membership fee will be lower than other’s.
The function of reproduction is easy to understand. As we know, if a society wants to maintain itself, it must replace dying members with newly born ones. By reproducing new members, the family can help maintain the proper proportion of the working force, thus ensuring the smooth running of the system as a whole. In this sense, the family contributes to human survival through its function of reproduction.
    The second is the function of protection. Unlike the young of other species in the animal kingdom, human infants need constant care and economic security. They experience an extremely long period of dependency, and place special demands on elder family members.
    The third is the function of socialization. For example, in a family, parents and other kin monitor a child’s behavior and transmit the norms, values, and language of a culture to the child. By doing this, they help the child fit into the society, which is the final objective of socialization.
    Affection and companionship is the next function we will illustrate. Ideally, the family provides members with warm and intimate relationships and helps them feel satisfied and secure. Of course, a family member may find such rewards outside the family—from peers, in school, at work—and may perceive the home as an unpleasant place. Nevertheless, the family is obliged to serve the emotional needs of its members.

答案 She is satisfied with both fresh products and the fair prices. But the food cooperative society doesn’t sell everything, and she has to go to other supermarkets to buy some products, such as sporting goods. The membership fee is very cheap, that is $ 20 per year. If she could work there for two hours every month, she wouldn’t have to pay for it. There is a membership meeting every month to instruct you on how to choose healthy and nutritious food. The shortest membership is two months. She doesn’t know the exact cost for the short membership,  but it is definitely more expensive than a longer one.
