Parenthood isn’t a career-killer. In fact, economists with two or more kids tend to produce more research, not less, than their one-child or childless colleagues. But female economists【C1】______can pay a price in terms of productivity after becoming mothers, especially【C2】______they’re young or unmarried.
That’ s according to a new research from the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis. There is widespread【C3】______that motherhood is【C4】______costly in terms of professional career advancement. "In particular, it is often【C5】______that the only way for young women to【C6】______a challenging career is to remain childless, " they wrote. Our study of the academic labor market arrives at a somewhat less【C7】______picture: We do not observe a family gap in research productivity among female academic economists.【C8】______, motherhood-induced decreases in research productivity are less pronounced than usually purported.
The authors in early 2012 【C9】______about 10, 000 economists through the Research Papers in Economics online platform, 【C10】______the academics’ answers with their publication records. They gauged an economist’s productivity【C11】______looking at their output: published research, weighted by journal【C12】______. Among their findings:
Mothers of at least two children are, 【C13】______, more productive than mothers of only one child, and mothers in general are more【C14】______than childless women. Fathers of【C15】______two children are also more productive than fathers of one child and childless men. Toward the end of their careers, however, childless men appear to be somewhat more productive than fathers of one child.
Parenthood does appear linked to【C16】______productivity while the children are 12 and younger: mothers average a 17.4% loss, while fathers average a 5% loss. A female economist with three children, on average, 【C17】______the equivalent of four years of research【C18】______by the time her kids become teenagers. Women who are married or in a【C19】______relationship do not have any drop in research productivity in the three years following childbirth. For single mothers, research output drops by roughly a third【C20】______the same period.
【C7】
选项
A、ideal
B、desirable
C、dreary
D、agreeable
答案
C
解析
本题考查形容词辨析。根据上下文可知,此处Our study of the academic labor market arrives at a somewhat less______picture意为“但我们通过对学术界劳动力市场的研究发现,情况并不这么令人沮丧”。C.dreary“令人厌烦的,枯燥的”符合题意,为正确答案。ideal“理想的”;desirable“令人满意的”;agreeable“令人愉快的,惬意的”,均不符合题意,故排除。此外,根据“三一原则”(四个选项中,有三个词属于同义词,剩余一个词的词义与它们完全不同)考生可快速锁定正确答案C项。
