When Carly Fiorina became Hewlett-Packard’s 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 mini-sensation (小轰动); now this arrangement isn’t【S1】______at all. Seven of the 18 women who are【S2】______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【S3】______CEOs of smaller companies and women in other senior executive jobs.
This role change is【S4】______more and more as women edge past men at work. Women now【S5】______a majority of jobs in the US, including 51.4 percent of managerial and professional【S6】______, 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【S7】______, than their male counterparts (年龄相当的人) in many large cities in the US.
During the recent【S8】______, 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【S9】______wage earners. The number of men in the US who【S10】______care for children under age five increased to 32 percent in 2010 from 19 percent in 1988, according to Census figures.
A) appealing I) occupations
B) average J) occurring
C) conflict K) positions
D) currently L) primary
E) elementary M) recession
F) ensure N) regularly
G) female O) unusual
H) fill
【S8】
选项
答案
M
解析
空格前面是形容词recent,并且句首处为介词During,由此可知此处想表达“在最近的某个时期”之意,此处缺少名词。此句中又提到了失业率,因此应填入和经济相关的名词形式。备选项中recession“衰退,不景气”放在此处符合句意,为本题答案。在备选的名词中,conflict意为“冲突,矛盾,斗争”,此句中不含有斗争之意,可排除;occupations“职业”不能和During搭配,故排除。
