When Carly Fiorina became Hewlett Packards first female chief executive officer, the existence of her househusband, Frank Fiorina, who had retired early from AT&T to support her career, was a minisensation (小轰动); now this arrangement isn’t【C6】________at all. Seven of the 18 women who are【C7】________CEOs of Fortune 500 companies—including Xerox’s Ursula Burns and PepsiCo’s Indra Nooyi—have, or at some point have had, a stay at home husband. So do scores of【C8】________CEOs of smaller companies and women in other senior executive jobs.
This role change is【C9】________more and more as women edge past men at work. Women now【C10】________a majority of jobs in the US, including 51. 4 percent of managerial and professional【C11】________, according to US Census Bureau data. Some 23 percent of wives now earn more than their husbands. And this earnings trend is more dramatic among younger people. Women 30 and under make more money, on【C12】________, than their male counterparts(年龄相当的人)in many large cities in the US.
During the recent【C13】________three men lost their jobs for every woman. Many unemployed fathers have ended up caring for their children full-time while their wives are the【C14】________wage earners. The number of men in the US who【C15】________care for children under age five increased to 32 percent in 2010 from 19 percent in 1988, according to Census figures.
[A] appealing [B] average
[C] conflict [D] currently
[E] elementary [F] ensure
[G] female [H] fill
[I] occupations [J] occurring
[K] positions [L] primary
[M] recession [N] regularly
[O] unusual
【C14】
选项
答案
L
解析
空格前面为定冠词the, 后面为名词短语wage earners, 所以空格处需要填入形容词作定语。在意义上, 本句由while连接的两个分句构成, 前后对比, 前半句提到丈夫失业, 后半句表达妻子要赚钱养家之意。丈夫照顾孩子, 妻子成为赚钱的主力, 此处的形容词可选择primarily“主要的”, 意为主要的收入者, 符合题意。在备选的形容词中, appealing“吸引人的, 动人的, 引起兴趣的”不合题意;elementary只表示“基本的, 初级的”意思, 没有“主要的”之意。
