问题     There was a time when, if a lady got onto a crowded bus or train, a gentleman would immediately stand up and offer her his seat. No more, though. Today, a gentleman will probably look out of the window, or, if he feels a bit guilty, hide behind his newspaper. Either way, the lady will have to stand until someone else gets off.
    You can’ t entirely blame men for this change in manners. The days are gone when women could be referred to as the weaker sex. A whole generation of women has grown up demanding equality with men: not just equality in jobs or education, but in social attitudes. Hold a door open for some women and you’re likely to get an angry lecture on treating women as inferiors(能力低下的人)unable to open door for themselves. Take a girl out for a meal and she’ 11 probably insist on paying her share of the bill: though on second thoughts perhaps that’ s not such a bad idea.
    It’ s no wonder, then, that men have given up some of the gestures of politeness and consideration which they used to show towards women. On the other hand, automatic male(men)politeness is perhaps slowly being replaced by true consideration for the needs of women, so that men can see women as equal human beings.
    Maybe that’ s worth standing in the bus or train.
The new generation of women wants to be ______.
选项 A、treated not as the weaker sex
B、treated as the weaker sex
C、cared for on buses and trains
D、better treated than before
答案A
解析 从第二段第二句“The days aregone when women could be referred to as theweaker sex…demanding equality with men”可以推断新时代的女性们希望受到平等的对待，而不是弱势群体。故A正确。
