问题     For many women choosing whether to work or not to work outside their home is a luxury ; they must work to survive. Others face a hard decision. Perhaps the easiest choice has to do with economics. One husband said, "Marge and I decided after careful consideration that for her to go back to work at this moment was an extravagance we couldn’t afford. " With two preschool children, it soon became clear in their figuring that with babysitters, transportation, and increased taxes, rather than having more money, they might actually end up with less.
    Economic factors are usually the first to be considered, but they are not the most important. The most important aspects of the decision have to do with the emotional needs of each member of the family. It is in this area that husbands and wives find themselves having to face many confusing and conflicting feelings.
    There are many women who find that homemaking is boring or who feel imprisoned if they have to stay home with a young child or several children. On the other hand, there are women who think that homemaking gives them the deepest satisfaction.
    From my own experience, I would like to suggest that sometimes the decision to go back to work is made in too much haste. There are few decisions that I now regret more. I wasn’t mature enough to see how much I could have gained at home. I regret my impatience to get on with my career. I wish I had allowed myself the luxury of watching the world through my little girl’s eyes.
Questions:
Some women would rather do housework and take care of their children than pursue a career because they feel______.
选项 A、highly stressed while working with others
B、greatly competitive at work
C、surprisingly upset while working with men
D、deeply satisfied with their work at home
答案D
解析 第4题问为什么有些妇女宁愿在家做家务、看孩子也不愿出去工作追求自己事业的原因是什么。我们可以利用查阅式阅读法在第三段中找到与本题相关的信息。这一段指出，许多妇女发现如果必须呆在家里照看一个或几个小孩子、做家务使她们感到厌倦，觉得像在监狱里一样。而另一些妇女认为做家务能给她们最大的满足感。因此，答案应该是，一些妇女宁愿做家务照看孩子而不愿追求工作事业是因为她们觉得有极大的满足感。所以，本题的正确答案应是D。
