单选题 All of the following statements are true except that______.

【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】本题可用排除法。文中第一段“newly-wed gaily embark on the task of decorating their homes"对应选项A;第二段提到wives automatically assume their husband will put things right,而husbands也live under the delusion that the can do anything,表明女人通常会把修理之类的活交给husband去做,而男人和女人都有“男人能修理很多东西”这样一种错误信念, B,D项也正确。原文第一段说“有些狂热者会build their own record players”,并不是说只有 old mail才会修理record players,因此C项不正确。
