问题  
Jane Brown’s been married for 12 years. She has three children and lives in the suburb outside Columbus, Ohio. When her youngest child reached school age, Jane decided to go back to work.(26)She thought that she should contribute to the household finances. Her salary could make the difference between the financial struggle and a secure financial situation for her family. Jane also felt bored and frustrated in her role as a homemaker and wanted to be more involved in life outside her home. Jane was worried about her children’s adjustment to this new situation. But she arranged for them to go stay with a woman nearby after school each afternoon. They seem to be happy with the arrangement.(28)The problem seems to be between Jane and her husband, Bill.(27)When Jane was at home all day, she was able to clean the house, go grocery shopping, wash the clothes, take care of the children and cook two or three meals each day. She was very busy, of course, but she succeeded in getting everything done. Now these same things need to be done. But Jane has only evenings and early mornings to do them. Both Jane and Bill are tired when they arrive home at 6 p. m. Bill’s accustomed to sitting down and reading the paper or watching TV until dinner is ready. This is exactly what Jane feels like doing. But someone has to fix dinner and Bill expects that to be Jane. Jane’s becoming very angry at Bill’s attitude.(29)She feels that they should share the household jobs. But Bill feels that everything should be the same as it was before Jane went back to work.
26. Why did Jane want to go back to work?
27. How did Jane spend her days before she went back to work?
28. What problem arose when Jane went back to work?
29. What does the story try to tell us?

选项 A、Neighbours should help each other.
B、Women should have their own careers.
C、Man and wife should share household duties.
D、Parents should take good care of their children.

答案C

解析 主旨大意题。短文讲述了一个妇女重返工作岗位后家人的态度问题。重新工作前,她包揽了全部的家务活,但在她重新回到工作岗位后,她在外劳累一天,回家后丈夫照例不帮忙做家务,她很不满意丈夫的态度。由此可知,夫妻之间应该分担家务劳动。
