第三题 What are the two major considerations in deciding whether women should go out to work?
题解: 题干中的consideration是寻找答案的关键词。从文章中可以在第三段找到consider一词,这一句明确地说“Economic factors are usually the first to be considered”,所以这里的economic factors肯定是答案的一个方面。但问题是“the two major considerations”,所以还有另一方面。根据这句话的下一句话,“The most important aspects of the decision have to do with the emotional needs of each member of the family”可以挑出来,即“the emotional needs”。
答案: Economic factors and emotional needs(of each family member)
或One is economic factors, the other is emotional needs.
或They are economic factors and emotional needs.
第四题 Some women would rather do housework and take care of their children than pursue a career because they feel______ .
题解: 本题较为简单,从第四段的对比论述可以知道答案在其最后一句话,即homemaking gives them the deepest satisfaction。
要点: 本题只答出从句部分即为正确答案,不要画蛇添足。
答案: satisfied with homemaking
或 that homemaking gives them the deepest satisfaction
或that homemaking and being with children give them deepest satisfaction
第五题 If given a second chance, the writer would probably choose to ______ .
题解: 此题属于推断类题。在第五段里,作者通过自身的体验总结说,不要轻易放弃家庭生活,她对自己迫不及待地出去工作表示后悔,并表示但愿能享受一下与自己的孩子在一起看世界的快乐。由此可断定, 若有机会她宁愿与女儿即家人呆在一起, 所以答案为stay home with her little girl 或 stay home and enjoy family life
