问题     For many women choosing whether to work or not to work outside their home is a luxury ; they must work to survive. Others face a hard decision. Perhaps the easiest choice has to do with economics. One husband said, "Marge and I decided after careful consideration that for her to go back to work at this moment was an extravagance we couldn’t afford. " With two preschool children, it soon became clear in their figuring that with babysitters, transportation, and increased taxes, rather than having more money, they might actually end up with less.
    Economic factors are usually the first to be considered, but they are not the most important. The most important aspects of the decision have to do with the emotional needs of each member of the family. It is in this area that husbands and wives find themselves having to face many confusing and conflicting feelings.
    There are many women who find that homemaking is boring or who feel imprisoned if they have to stay home with a young child or several children. On the other hand, there are women who think that homemaking gives them the deepest satisfaction.
    From my own experience, I would like to suggest that sometimes the decision to go back to work is made in too much haste. There are few decisions that I now regret more. I wasn’t mature enough to see how much I could have gained at home. I regret my impatience to get on with my career. I wish I had allowed myself the luxury of watching the world through my little girl’s eyes.
Questions:
If given a second chance, the writer would probably choose to______.
选项 A、work outside home and make a lot of money
B、stay at home and take care of her family
C、work outside home one week and stay at home the other
D、observe the world in her little daughter’s eyes
答案B
解析 第5题问如果有第二次选择机会的话，作者很可能会愿意做什么。回到原文中用查阅式阅读法，我们在最后一段找到了作者的看法。她认为有时回去工作这种决定做得太匆忙了。她希望自己能够有机会享受一下通过小女儿的眼睛来看世界的奢侈生活。言外之意，作者后悔做了离家外出工作的选择，希望自己能呆在家里照看孩子、做家务，做一个家庭主妇。因此，本题的正确答案应是B。
