Mr. and Mrs. Albino, with 64 children, have the world's largest family. Not one of their children is adopted(领养).

When people hear about the Albinos' large family, the first question they ask is, "How is it possible? How can one woman give birth to 64 children in her lifetime?" The answer is simple: {#blank#}1{#/blank#}

Soon after the Albinos got married, the children came quickly, in twos and threes. The first 21 children were boys. Mrs. Albino loved her sons, but she wanted a daughter very much.

The Albinos spent the early years in Argentina. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} To travel from Argentina to Chile, they had to cross the Andes Mountains. Mr. and Mrs. Albino and their 21 sons made the difficult, two-week journey on mules. {#blank#}3{#/blank#}

During the snowstorm, Mrs. Albino gave birth to triplets, a boy and two girls!

The oldest Albino children are in their thirties and forties. They are on their own now, but 18 of the Albino children still live with their parents. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} The shack has electricity but no toilet or running water. The children wash in a small bowl in the dusty backyard.

At times there is very little food in the Albinos' small house when there is not enough food for everyone, Mrs. Albino makes sure the youngest children do not go hungry. "The smallest eat first, and then the bigger ones. We've always done it that way," she says. Obviously, the Albinos do not have enough money for their big family, then, do they continue to have children?

The Albinos do not use birth control because it is against their religion(宗教). They could let other people take care of their children, but Mrs. Albino will not allow it, "When my two brothers and I were babies," she says, "our mother left us at an orphanage(孤儿院) and never returned. We lived there together until we were five. Then a couple adopted my brothers and I was left behind. I was heartbroken.{#blank#}5{#/blank#} Even if I didn't have much money, I would always take care of my children by myself." Mrs. Albino has kept her promise.

Helen was going to leave college. Her father said, "Dear, I want to give you an old 1 . I bought it a long time ago. Before I give it to you, 2 it to a car seller in the city and see how much they offer for（出价）it."The girl did as the father asked. When she came back, she said, "They offered S1,000 because it3 very old."

"OK. Take it to the second-hand car seller,"the father said. The girl4 back again and said, "They offered $100 because it is a very old car and it needs a lot of5 ."

The father asked his daughter to show the car 6 a carclub. This time the girl got 7 different. 

"Some people in the club offered me $100,000 because it is a rare car, it's very8 to find, but it is still in good condition（状况）."

The father smiled. "Dear, remember this. You are not worth（值得）anything9 you are not in the right place. If they don't like you, don't be10 . That means you are in the wrong place. Don't stay in a place where no one sees your value（价值）."
