"Congratulations, Mr. Jones, it’s a girl."
Fatherhood is going to have a different meaning and bring forth a different response from every man who hears these words. Some feel pride when they receive the news, while others worry, wondering whether they will be good fathers. Although there are some men who like children and may have had considerable experience with them, others do not particularly care for children and spend little time with them. Many fathers and mothers have been planning and looking forward to children for some time. For other couples, pregnancy was an accident that both husband and wife have accepted willingly or unwillingly.
Whatever the reaction to the birth of a child, it is obvious that the shift from the role of husband to that of father is a difficult task. Yet, unfortunately, few attempts have been made to educate fathers in this reconciliation(协调)process. Although numerous books have been written about American mothers, only recently has literature focused on the role of fathers.
It is argued by some writers that the change to the father’s role, although difficult, is not nearly as great as the change the wife must take to the mother’s role. The mother’s role seems to require a complete transformation in daily routine and highly innovative adaptation. On the other hand, the father’s role is less demanding and immediate. However, even though we mentioned the fact that growing numbers of women are working outside the home, the father is still thought by many as the breadwinner in the household.
From the passage, we learn that fatherhood
选项
A、brings a feeling of excitement to most men.
B、makes some men feel proud and others uneasy.
C、has a different meaning for men who have daughters.
D、means a responsibility that men accept unwillingly.
答案
B
解析
细节判断题。由第2段第2句中的pride和worry可以判断选项B是对该句的近义替换.选项A原文未提到。选项C曲解了原文第2段第1句的意思,该句中的“Fatherhood is going to have a different meaning”表示对于每个男人来说当上父亲具有不同的意义,而不是就生了女儿的琼斯先生而言。第2段最后一句表明只有部分男人是不情愿地接受责任,因此在D选项men前面加上some才正确。
