问题     For most people, life is easier and more comfortable than ever before. Convenient foods from the supermarket simplify shopping and cooking. Household appliances like the vacuum cleaner and the washing machine have taken the drudgery out of housework. Released from these household chores, many wives have found jobs outside the home. Women are achieving economic independence.
    Families, too, are simpler today. In America, it is not customary for parents to live with their married children. With our greater mobility, relatives have scattered, the parents retiring to Florida or Arizona and the young people, after they marry, going wherever their jobs or their parents or their interests take them.
    Young adult women have new freedom, too. While attending college, they often live away from home, sometimes far from their parents or their relatives. After college, they move to the city, find a job, and set up a bachelor apartment. This is the era of women’s liberation.
    But all this freedom and affluence(富裕)have had an unforeseen and in some aspects a devastating(破坏的)effect on marriage.
Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the text?

选项 A、Women’s liberation has made it possible for them to study.
B、Comfortable life adversely influences marriage in America.
C、Adults can go wherever they want.
D、Women prefer to be bachelors.

答案D

解析 排除题。A)项意为“妇女解放运动使得女性有机会受教育”,来自于第三段。B)项意为“舒适的生活对美国人的婚姻有负面的影响”,符合文章尾段devastating effect的含义。C)项意为“成年人可以想去哪儿就去哪儿”,来自于第二段结尾处。D)项意为“女性喜欢单身”,与原文set up a bachelorapartment(住进单身公寓)不符,故为答案项。
