Seven of the 10 women who are【C2】______ 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【C3】______ CEOs of smaller companies and women in other senior executive jobs.
This role change is【C4】______ more and more as women edge past men at work. Women now【C5】______ a majority of jobs in the US, including 51. 4 percent of managerial and professional【C6】______ , 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【C7】______ than their male counterparts(年龄相当的人)in many large cities in the US.
During the recent【C8】______ , 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【C9】______ wage earners.

[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
【C1】
选项
答案
O
解析
空格前面是be动词的否定形式,因此空格处需要填入形容词作表语。前一句中提到卡莉.费奥莉娜的丈夫提前退休来支持她的事业,这在当时引起了一个小轰动。原文中使用了分号,由此可知本句和前一句进行对比,当时的轰动现在不算什么,故形容词unusual为本题答案,意思为“不寻常的,与众不同的”。备选词语中形容词较多,但是能和be动词否定形式搭配,并和前句有对比意义的只能选择unusual。
