They are regarded as chores by both sexes, but fall(1)_____ on only one. The latest survey of time use in America suggests women still(2)_____ most of the housework, spending on average an hour a day scrubbing, hoovering and shopping,(3)_____ barely 20 minutes for the unfairer sex.
Standard(4)_____ for this division of labour (5)_____ the pay gap between the sexes. A recent report shows women(6)_____ earn about 20% less than men in America. Couples can maximise earnings(7)_____ the lower-paid(usually female)partner does the(8)_____ work at home.

选项
A、made in
B、made up
C、made off
D、made out
答案
B
解析
上文说收入较高的女性干家务的时间少一点,这句话提及这个女性的丈夫,想必是要补回妻子少干家务的时间了。因此made up“弥补”正确。make in“干涉别人”,make off“离开”,make out“设法应付”都无法与空格后的thistime搭配。
