Many changes are taking place in the way in which men and women look at their roles in society. We see these changes most dramatically in jobs and business situations. It is no longer unusual to find a male nurse or a female construction worker. Years ago, however, a man who worked as a nurse would have been looked down upon for doing a "woman’s job", and a female construction worker would have been roared off the construction site by her male co-workers. However, the most important changes that have taken place can be found in men’s and women’s roles in family life.
Household work that used to be done by women is now often shared equally by men and women. Men have discovered at last that they too are capable of preparing the family dinner, rather than thinking that they are only capable of taking out the garbage.
Perhaps the greatest change that has taken place in the family is in parents’ new attitude towards bringing up children. While it is true that only mothers can breastfeed their infants, nowhere is it written that fathers cannot bathe their own babies or change diapers. And more and more of them are doing just that. These days, being a full-time parent is a job that fathers and mothers both share.
As a result of these changes, we no longer insist that little boys play with trucks and grow up to be doctors, while little girls play with dolls and grow up to be housewives. Many men no longer feel that they must maintain a masculine attitude all the time, and many women no longer feel that they should be submissive and obedient. Changes like these do not occur overnight or even in a few years because they involve fundamental changes in attitude and behavior.
Questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you have just heard.
29. Where do the most important changes of men’s and women’s roles take place?
30. What is the greatest change that has taken place in the family?
31. What is the passage mainly about?
选项
A、Changes in children’s rearing.
B、Changes in men’s and women’s roles.
C、Changes in men’s role in family life.
D、Changes in women’s role in society.
答案
B
解析
选项概括性表明,本题可能考查短文的主题,再根据选项均以Changes开头以及其中重复出现的men’s,women’s,roles等可推断出,短文主旨可能与男性和女性的角色变化有关。短文中首先讲了男性和女性在社会生活中角色的变化(their roles in society).接着又讲了男性和女性在家庭中角色的变化(men’s and women’s roles in family life)以及社会对他们的要求的变化,由此可知,短文从多方面说明男性和女性角色上的改变,故答案为圆。
