问题     Perhaps (31) are far more wives that I imagine who take it for (32) that housework is neither satisfying nor even important once the basic demands of hygiene and feeding have been (33). But home and family is the one realm in (34) it is really difficult to shake free of one’s upbringing and create new values. My parents’ house was impeccably kept; cleanliness (35) a moral and social virtue, and personal untidiness, visibly old clothes, or long male hair provoked biting jocularity.

    I can now begin to understand why a woman in a small suburban house, with no infants to look (43), who does not (44) reading because she has not had much of an education, and who is intelligent (45) to find neighborly chit-chat boring, should carry the pursuit of microscopic specks of dust to the (46) of fanaticism in an (47) to fill hours and salvage her self-respect. My parents had not even the status-seeking impetus to send me to university that Joe’s had; my mother (48) me to be "a nice quiet person who wouldn’t be noticed (49) a crowd", and it was feared that university education (50) in ingratitude (independence).
