问题    Most women in Ghana—the educated and illiterate, the urban and rural, the young and old—work to earn an income in addition to maintaining their roles as housewives and mothers. Their reputation for economic independence, self-reliance, and hard work is well known and well deserved.
   Most of Ghana’s working women are farmers and traders. Only one woman in five, or even fewer, can be classified as simply housewives. Even these women often earn money by sewing or by baking and cooking things to sell. They also maintain vegetable gardens and chicken farms. Indeed, the woman who depends entirely upon her husband for support is looked upon with disfavor.
   Traditionally the tasks of motherhood have been shared. Mothers and sisters, grandmothers and nieces all helped to raise the children and to carry out daily tasks. As the family grew, older brothers and sisters also helped to care for the younger ones and helped in the home. Now with more children going to school, with more people moving away from their traditional homes, not only must the mother continue her income-producing activities, but she must take on all the heavy, time-consuming housework.
   Ghana today is looking for new ways to meet the needs of women and their families, such as providing more day care centers, so women can continue to play their multiple roles in the home and in the economy.  
What kind of women do people in Ghana prefer?
选项 A、Beautiful and charming.
B、Skillful at sewing or baking.
C、Depending totally on husbands.
D、Working hard to earn incomes.
答案D
解析 逻辑推断题。从第一段最后一句可以看出，自力更生又努力工作的女性是受到人们的认可和尊敬的；第二段最后一句，Indeed，the woman who depends entirely upon her husband for support is looked upon with disfavor(完全依靠丈夫来养家的女性是不被人们赞同，并被人看不起的)，也表明本题答案应选D。
