The greatest recent social changes have been in the lives of women. During the twentieth century there has been a remarkable shortening of the proportion of a woman’s life spent in caring for children. A woman marrying at the end of the nineteenth century would probably have been in her middle twenties, and would be likely to have seven or eight children, of whom four or five lived till they were five years old. By the time the youngest was fifteen, the mother would have been in her early fifties and would expect to live a further twenty years, during which custom, opportunity and health made it unusual for her to get paid work. Today women marry younger and have fewer children. Usually a woman’s youngest child will be fifteen when she is forty-five and can be expected to live another thirty-five years and is likely to take paid work until retirement at sixty. Even while she has the care of children, her work is lightened by household appliances and convenience foods.
This important change in women’s life-pattern has only recently begun to have its full effect on women’s economic position. Even a few years ago most girls left school at the first opportunity, and most of them took a full-time job. However, when they married, they usually left work at once and never return to it. Today the school-leaving age is sixteen, many girls stay at school after that age, and though women tend to marry younger, more married women stay at work at least until shortly before their first child is born. Very many more afterwards return to full or part-time work. Such changes have led to a new relation in marriage, with the husband accepting a greater share of the duties and satisfactions of family life, and with both husband and wife sharing more equally in providing the money, and running the home, according to the abilities and interests of each of them.
Many girls, the passage claims, are now likely to______.
选项
A、give up their jobs for good after they are married
B、leave school as soon as they can
C、marry so that they can get a job
D、continue working until they are going to have a baby
答案
D
解析
本题问文章指出现在的许多女孩很可能做什么。根据文章第二段,妇女生活方式的重要改变只是最近才全面影响到了妇女的经济地位。甚至在几年前,大部分女孩学校毕业后抓住机会,找全职工作来做。但是,一旦结婚了,她们通常就立刻放弃了工作,再不上学了。而今天,女孩学校毕业时的年龄是16岁,许多女孩16岁以后仍然求学。虽然现在妇女趋向于早婚,但很多已婚妇女都继续工作,至少在第一个孩子出世以前还工作。因此,本题的正确答案应是D“直到快生小孩了还在工作”。
