Today women earn almost 60 percent of all bachelor’s
degrees and more than half of master’s and Ph.D.’s. Many people
believe that, as this may be good for women as income earners, it【M1】______
foreshadows ill for their marital prospects.
As Kate Bolick wrote in a much-discussed article in The
Atlantic last fall, American women face "a radical shrinking pool【M2】______
of what are traditionally considered to be ’marriageable’ men—
those who are better educated and earn more than they do."
Educated women worry that they are scaring potential partners,【M3】______
and experts claim that those who do marry will end up with
satisfactory matches. They point to outdated studies suggesting【M4】______
that women with high earnings than their husbands do more【M5】______
housework to compensate for the threat to their mates’ egos.
Is this really the fate facing with educated women: either no【M6】______
marriage at all or the marriage with more housework? Nonsense.【M7】______
That may have been the case in the past, but no longer. By 1996,
intelligence and education moved up to No. 5 on men’s ranking of【M8】______
desirable qualities in a mate. The desire for a good cook and
housekeeper had dropped to 14th place, near the bottom of the
18-point scale. The sociologist Christine B. Whelan reports that by
2008, men’s interest in a woman’s education had arisen to No. 4,【M9】______
just after mutual attraction, dependent character and emotional【M10】______
stability.
【M3】
选项
答案
scaring∧一away
解析
词汇错误。scare是动词,表示“惊吓,恐吓”,此处讨论的是受教育女性很难找到理想伴侣,她们的高学历不是恐吓到对方,而是让潜在的伴侣望而却步,因此用词组scare away更合适,表示“吓跑”。
