As working women continue to receive better and better wages, house wives still work at home without receiving paychecks. Should a woman who works at home, doing the housework and caring for children, be paid for her services? In a 1986 study at Cornell University, it was found that the value of the services of a housewife averaged $ 11,600 a year. This rate was based on a family com posed of a husband, wife, and three young children. The $11,600 is what the husband would have to pay if he hired others to take over his wife’s household work. The researchers concluded that it would be fair for husbands to pay wives according to government guidelines(方针)for least amounts of wages.
Another plan for rewarding women who work at home has been suggested by Dr. Johnson, a former Secretary of Health and Human Services. He says that full-time housewives should be allowed to pay social security taxes(社会保障金) ,with their employers (that is ,their husbands) offering part of the payment. He feels that the present system is unfair. He said, "If you work in a store you can qualify for Social Security, but if you stay at home and raise a family, you can’t qualify for it."
Now in the U. S. the women working outside home can get______.
选项
A、the same pay as those doing housework
B、as much as their husbands
C、an average payment of $ 11,600 a year
D、more and more money
答案
D
解析
细节题。该题考查对原文细节的理解。文章第一段的开头的从句中指出:“working women continue to receive better and better wages”,职业女性的收入越来越高。而题目中的短语“working women”和“receive better and better wages”分别与文章中的“the women working outside home”和“get more and more money”对应,由此可知答案为D 。
