In a family where the roles of men and women are not sharply separated and where many household tasks are shared to a greater or lesser extent, notions of male superiority are hard to maintain. The pattern of sharing in tasks and in decisions makes for equality, and this in turn leads to further sharing. In such a home, the growing boy and girl learn to accept that equality more easily than their parents did and to prepare more fully for participation in a world characterized by cooperation rather than by the "battle of the sexes".
If the process goes too far and man’s role is regarded as less important—and that has happened in some cases—we are as badly off as before, only in reverse.
It is time to reassess the role of the man in the American family. We are getting a little tired of "Momism" —but we don’t want to exchange it for a "neo-Popism". What we need, rather, is the recognition that bringing up children involves a partnership of equals. There are signs that psychiatrists, psychologists , social workers, and specialists on the family are becoming more aware of the part men play and that they have decided that women should not receive all the credit—nor all the blame. We have almost given up saying that a woman’s place is in the home. We are beginning, however, to analyze man’s place in the home and to insist that he does have a place in it. Nor is that place irrelevant to the healthy development of the child.
The family is a cooperative enterprise for which it is difficult to lay down rules, because each family needs to work out its own ways for solving its own problems.
Excessive authoritarianism has unhappy consequences, whether it wears skirts or trousers, and the ideal of equal rights and equal responsibilities is
pertinent
not only to a healthy democracy, but also to a healthy family.
The word "pertinent"(Line 2, Para. 5)most probably means______.
选项
A、penetrating
B、profound
C、appropriate
D、irrelevant
答案
C
解析
该题针对第五段内容命题,属于词义句意考查类题目。此类题目的正确答案一般是根据该词所在句上下文逻辑关系来推断。据文章第四段提到,家庭是一个合作组织。所以作者在第五段进一步指出,过度的权威主义会造成不愉快的结果,而不论这种权威来自女性或男性,而平等权利和责任的理想不仅对健康的民主体制,而且对一个健康的家庭来说都是适当的。由此可推断pertinent意思应是“适当的,中肯的”,故选项[C]正确。
