The cohesiveness (内聚力) of a family seems to rely on members sharing certain routine practices and events. For a growing share of the American labor force, however, working shifts beyond the normal daylight hours—what we here call "shift work"——makes the lives of families difficult.
Existing research shows that both male and female shift workers express high levels of stress and a sense of conflict between the demands of work and family life. But shift work couples still maintain a traditional attitude to the meaning of marriage and the individual roles of husband and wife. They expressed a willingness to do "whatever it takes" to approximate their view of a proper marriage, including sacrificing sleep and doing conventional things at unconventional hours. For the majority of couples interviewed, even when wives worked outside their homes, a proper marriage is characterized by a very clear division of roles: husbands are "providers" whose major responsibility is to support the family; wives are "homemakers" who clean, cook, and care for husbands and children.
The women’s definitions of a "good husband" are typified by the following wife’s response:
I expect him to be a good provider, and be there when I need him, loyal about the same things as he would expect out of me, expect that I expect him to dominate over me. But in a manner of speaking, when it’s time to be a man I expect him to stand up instead of sitting back expecting me to do everything.
To husbands, a good wife is someone who is:
Understanding of what I feel go through at work. I need that respect at work, I hope I get it at work. I want my wife to realize what I expect at work. I don’t want her to give me a lot of nonsense when I come home from work because I don’t know if this makes much sense.
These views seemed critical to maintain the families of the shift workers.
What is implied by the author?
选项
A、Shift work had a direct effect on the attitudes and behavior of family members.
B、Shift workers could live a normal life.
C、Shift work couples had unconventional ideas about marriage.
D、Female shift workers were satisfied with the time spent together with their families.
答案
A
解析
细节题。由第二段第一句“Existing research shows that both male and female shift workers express high levels of stress and a sense of conflict between the demands of work and family life. ”可推知,现有的研究表明,男性和女性轮班工人都表现出高度的压力,工作和家庭生活需求之间相冲突。A选项“轮班工作对家庭成员的态度和行为有直接影响。”符合文意,故选A。
