Women are beginning to rise【1】to the top in the workplace all over the developed world. New figures show that in almost a third of American【2】with a working wife, the woman brings home more money than her husband and that they now occupy half the country’s "high-paying, executive, administrative and【3】occupations", compared with 34 per cent 20 years ago.

Pushing a buggy (婴儿车) on a sunny afternoon in New York’s Central Park last week, Jonathan Blinderman, 33, said, he was【7】he had been able to see every moment of his daughter Lindsay’s first six months of life while his wife, Sage, was out working.
It is a sign of these times of【8】that when he mentions his status at parties he is either praised as a saint or【9】as a slave-cum-freeloader (爱占便宜的奴隶). For the revolution is nowhere near complete.

M. growing N. steadily O. households
【5】
选项
答案
M
解析
此处需要形容词作定语。前文提到“女性开始在工作场所稳步上升到高层位置”,所以可推断男性逐步接受做家庭主男,因此growing最为合适。a growing acceptance意为“越来越接受”。
