问题     There was a time when, if a lady got into a crowded bus or train, a gentleman would immediately stand up and offer her his seat. Today a gentleman will probably look out of the window or hide behind his newspaper. Either way, the lady will have to stand until someone gets off.
    You can’t entirely blame men for this change in manners. The days are gone when women could be treated as the weaker sex. A whole generation of women has grown up demanding equality with men: not just equality in jobs or education, but in social attitudes. Hold a door open for some women and you’re likely to get an angry lecture on treating women as inferiors, unable to open doors for themselves. Take a girl out for a meal and she’ll probably insist on paying her share of the bill.
    It’s no wonder, then, that men have given up some of the gestures of politeness and consideration which they used to show towards women. On the other hand, man’s politeness is perhaps slowly being replaced by more consideration for the needs and feelings of women, so that men can see women as equal human beings.
Which of the following statements is TRUE?

选项 A、Men have become less and less the weaker sex.
B、The women are thought of as the weaker sex.
C、The women could not open doors for themselves.
D、Men’s attitudes towards women are reasonable.

答案D

解析 正误判断题。本题问下列哪种说法是真的。A.男士已经变得对女士越来越没礼貌了。B.女士被人们看作弱者。C.女士们过去自己开不了门。D.男士们对待女士们的态度合乎情理。根据文章最后一节的第一句可知D是真的,故选D。A与事实不符,因为文章说男士们改变了过去的礼让女性的做法是女性要求一切平等的结果,并非他们变得对女性不礼貌了。B用了一般现在时,而女性被看作弱者是过去的事,故也与事实不符。C更与事实不符,文章里明确说,过去女士不开门是男士照顾女士为女士开门表现礼貌。而今女士要求平等,不要男士照顾,坚持自己开门,这就说明她们自己能开门。
