The greatest recent social changes have been in the lives of women. During the twentieth century there has been a remarkable shortening of the proportion of a woman’s life spent in caring for children. A woman marrying at the end of the nineteenth century would probably have been in her middle twenties, and would be likely to have seven or eight children, of whom four or five lived till they were five years old. By the time the youngest was fifteen, the mother would have been in her early fifties and would expect to live a further twenty years, during which custom, opportunity and health made it unusual for her to get paid work. Today women marry younger and have fewer children. Usually a woman’s youngest child will be fifteen when she is forty-five and can be expected to live another thirty-five years and is likely to take paid work until retirement at sixty. Even while she has the care of children, her work is lightened by household appliances and convenience foods.
This important change in women’s life-pattern has only recently begun to have its full effect on women’s economic position. Even a few years ago most girls left school at the first opportunity, and most of them took a full-time job. However, when they married, they usually left work at once and never return to it. Today the school-leaving age is sixteen, many girls stay at school after that age, and though women tend to marry younger, more married women stay at work at least until shortly before their first child is born. Very many more afterwards return to full or part-time work. Such changes have led to a new relation in marriage, with the husband accepting a greater share of the duties and satisfactions of family life, and with both husband and wife sharing more equally in providing the money, and running the home, according to the abilities and interests of each of them.
Nowadays, a husband tends to______.
选项
A、play a greater part in looking after the children
B、help his wife by doing most of the housework
C、feel dissatisfied with his role in the family
D、take a part-time job so that he can help in the home
答案
A
解析
本题问现在做丈夫的有做什么的倾向。文章最后部分指出,很多妇女生完小孩后还会继续工作,做全职的或兼职的工作。这种变化带来了婚姻中的一种新型关系:丈夫越来越多地担负家庭责任和满足于家庭生活,夫妻双方按着各自的能力和兴趣在挣钱持家方面也越来越平等了。因此,本题的正确答案应是A“丈夫在照顾孩子方面也起到了比较大的作用”。
