问题    For most people, life is easier and more comfortable than ever before. Convenient food from the supermarket simplify shopping and cooking. Household appliances like the vacuum cleaner and the washing machine have taken the hard work out of housework. Released from these household cares, 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 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 have had an unforeseen and in some respects a devastating effect on marriage.  
Hard housework was taken by______.

选项 A、liberated women
B、retired parents
C、unforeseen supermarkets
D、modern equipment

答案D

解析 由题干中的Hard housework定位于文章第一段第三句,文章第一段第三句谈到Household appliances,像vacuum cleaner,washing machine这些电器已经可以承担繁重的家务劳动了,毫无疑问,可以对应到选项D中的“modern equipment”,故选D。
