问题     This is supposed to be an enlightened age, but you wouldn’t think so if you could hear what the average men think of the average women. Women won their independence years ago. After a long, biter struggle, they now enjoy the same educational opportunities as men in most parts of the world. They have proved repeatedly that they are equal and often superior to men in almost every field. The hard-fought battle for recognition has been won, but it is by no means over. It is men, not women who still carry on the sex war because their attitude remains basically hostile. Even in the most progressive societies, women continue to be regarded as second-rate citizens. Hearing some men talk, you’d think that women belong to a different species. On the surface, the comments made by men about women’s abilities seem light-heartiness does not conceal the real contempt (轻视) that men feel for women. However much men sneer at women, their claims to superiority are not borne out by statistics. We all know that women cause far fewer accidents than men. They are too careful and responsible to drive like menaces. But this is a minor quibble (双关语). Women have succeeded in any job you care to name. As politicians, soldiers, doctors, bus-conductors, scientists and presidents of countries they have often put men to shame. And we must remember that they frequently succeed brilliantly in all these fields in addition to bearing and rearing children.  
Women cause far fewer accidents than men because women ______.

选项 A、drive like crazy men
B、drive much better than men
C、are conscientious and responsible
D、want to put men to shame

答案C

解析 根据倒数第五句,They are too careful and responsible to drive like menaces作出该项选择。文章的中心论点是男女平等,而没说明女人比男人强,想让男人惭愧,所以选项A、B、D不对。
