During the twentieth century there has been a great change in the lives of women.
A woman marrying at the end of the nineteenth century would probably have been in her middle twenties, and would be likely to have seven or eight children, of whom four of five lived till they were five years old.
By the time the youngest was fifteen, the mother would have been in her early fifties and would expect to live a further twenty years, during which chance and health made it unusual for them to get paid work. Today women marry younger and have fewer children. Usually a woman’s youngest child will be fifteen when she is forty-five and can be expected to live another thirty-five years and is likely to take paid work until sixty.
This important change in women’s life has only recently begun to have its full effect on women’ s economic position. Even a few years ago most girls left school and took a full-time job. However, when they married, they usually left work at once and never returned to it. Today the school-leaving age is sixteen, many girls stay at school after that age, and though women marry younger, more married women stay at work at least until shortly before their first child is born. Very many more afterwards return to full or part-time work.
Such changes have led to a new relationship in marriage, with the husband accepting a greater share of the duties and satisfactions of family life.
We are told that in a family about 1900______.
选项
A、few children died before they were five
B、seven or eight children lived to be more than five
C、the youngest child would be fifteen
D、not all the children can live beyond five
答案
D
解析
文章第一段第二句的意思是:十九世纪末,妇女的结婚年龄大约是二十五岁左右,她们可能会有七到八个孩子,其中只有四到五个仅活到五岁。即不是所有的孩子都能存活下来,有些在5岁之前就已经夭折了,故选D。
