Leisure plays an important part in British life. There are four main reasons for this.
First of all, people spend less time working now than they used to, mostly due to the introduction of new technology in industry. The normal British working week is from Monday to Friday, 9:00 am to 5:00 pm, although some people regularly work a few hours’ overtime each week. Secondly, all working people get a minimum of two weeks’ paid holiday a year. In addition, there are six or more bank holidays a year when all banks and businesses are closed. In some cases the dates of these national holidays change from year to year and in different parts of Britain.
Another reason is that, thanks to modern medicine and higher living standards, people live longer now. This means that after retirement, people have quite a few years of leisure left. Nowadays a much higher proportion of the population is over sixty, but in this group there are more women than men.
Finally, fewer babies are born each year and the average family in Britain has two children. This is one result of changing social attitudes. For example, many more married women now go out to work. The money they earn influences their leisure time. Even married women who do not go out to work have more time for interesting hobbies because most British homes have washing machines, vacuum cleaners and other laborsav-ing gadgets, or appliances.
In Britain, married women have more leisure hours because they have ______.
选项
A、work with a good pay
B、a lot of time
C、washing machines and vacuum cleaners
D、fewer children and more laborsaving gadgets or appliances
答案
D
解析
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段最后一句话可知,英国的已婚妇女有很多休闲时间,因为她们大多数家里都有洗衣机、吸尘器和其他省力的设备或器械。A项文中未提及;B项说法太笼统;C项说法不全面;只有D项符合。所以答案为D。
