24、Housework is an endless argument between lazy husbands and their hard-working wives, but women are warned not to expect men to share housework any time soon.
A study from University of Oxford has found it seems impossible for men to be doing an equal share of housework before 2050. Mothers will continue to shoulder the burden(负担) of childcare and housework for the next thirty years, mainly because housework such as cleaning and cooking is still thought of to be “women’s work”.
The gap(鸿沟) has narrowed slowly over the past 30 years. Women expect true equality(平等). But what makes them down is that it will take another thirty years before it is achieved.
The research found that in the northern Europe, the burden of housework is shared more equally between men and women. In the UK, a woman spends around four hours and forty minutes each day on housework, compared with two hours and twenty-eight minutes for a man. This is an improvement from the 1960s, when British women typically(典型地) spent six hours a day on housework, while men spent just 90 minutes every day.
But progress towards housework equality appears to be slowing in some countries. Dr. Oriel Sullivan, a research reader, said, “We’ve looked at what is influencing the equality in the home, and we have found that certain tasks seem to be given according to whether they are viewed as ‘men’s work’, or ‘women’s work’.”
Dr. Sullivan said cultural attitudes(态度) taught at school may decide the views of housework. “At school it is much easier for a girl to be a tomboy, but it is much more difficult for a boy to enjoy cooking and dancing,” she said.
【1】Women will continue to do more housework before 2050 mainly because ________.
A.men are too busy to help
B.they would like to do so
C.they can do better
D.housework is considered as women’s work
【2】The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refers to “________”.
A.the research
B.true housework
C.true equality
D.the gap
【3】From Paragraph 4 we know that in the UK ________.
A.men now spend just 90 minutes a day on housework on average
B.women now are too busy with their work to do housework
C.women now spend less time on housework than before
D.housework is shared equally between men and women
【4】________ is mentioned in the last two paragraphs of the article.
A.What men think of housework
B.How much time women spend on housework
C.What influences people’s views of housework
D.Why men should share housework
【5】What is the main idea of this passage?
A.The argument about housework between husbands and wives will end.
B.Women will be doing more housework than men until 2050.
C.Men are unable to help their wives with housework.
D.Women spend less time on housework while men spend more than before.

26、 Have you ever thought about making a bicycle that you dream of? Some creative people have invented some special bicycles. Here are three of them.
Bambikes Bambikes are produced in a company in Philippines. They are made of an unusual king of bamboo and other materials like metal and a local plant. They are very strong. And they are a perfect combination (结合) of the greenest building material and common bicycles. By making bambikes, the company offers jobs to the local people. Besides, it provides money for some students in its community to pay for their study. To continue the production, the company plants more bamboo than it cuts. |
The heaviest bicycle A German cycling lover, Frank Dose, has recently made the world’s heaviest bicycle with big old wheels and lots of other waste materials. He created it just because of a bet (打赌) he made with his friend. The bicycle weighed 1.08 tones. It broke the world record of its kind in weight. Frank said his bicycle was surprisingly easy to ride although it had a huge size and weighed a lot. He rode it in front of 5,000 people for over 100 meters to prove it. |
Twisted (变形的) bicycles Two brothers in France created a bike that looks strange to ride and twists in the middle. Riders can make tight turns (急转弯). The brothers say the bicycle is hard to ride so it can stop people from stealing it. In fact, it isn’t as hard to control as you think. It takes a day or two to get used to the crazy way of riding. It’s amazing. So far, there have 30 of the bicycle, but they are not for sale yet. |
