During the twentieth century there has been a great change in the lives of women.
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 of 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 chance and health made it unusual for them 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 sixty.
This important change in women’ s life has only recently begun to have its full effect on women’ s economic position. Even a few years ago most girls left school and took a full-time job. However, when they married, they usually left work at once and never returned to it. Today the school-leaving age is sixteen, many girls stay at school after that age, and though women 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 relationship in marriage, with the husband accepting a greater share of the duties and satisfactions of family life.
Now a husband probably______.
选项
A、plays a greater part in looking after the children
B、helps his wife by doing most of the housework
C、feels dissatisfied with his part in the family
D、takes a part-time job so that he can be more helpful at home
答案
B
解析
文章最后一句的意思是,这种变化导致了一种新型的婚姻关系,丈夫在家庭生活中承担了更多的责任。
