单选题"What About the Men?" was the title of a Congressional briefing last week timed to 1 National Work and Family Month. "What about them ?" you may be 2 to yell. When Ellen Galinsky, president of the Families and Work Institute, first went out on the road to talk about her organization"s research into men"s work-family 3 , she received many such grumpy responses. Work-life experts laughed at her. Men are 4 , they said. They don"t have the right to complain. That was in 2008, before the Great Recession had hit. And this year, when Galinsky went out on the road again to talk about the results of a new study on male work-life conflict, she got a very 5 response. Some men became very 6 . They felt they didn"t have permission to feel 7 . ""This is what I think about each and every day, " " she recalled another man telling her. " " I didn"t realize that anyone else did, " " he said. "He thought he was alone, " Galinsky told me. 8 men are 9 work-family conflict isn"t new. Indeed, it"s been some time now that they—and younger men in particular—have been complaining of feeling the 10 in even greater numbers of women. Failure, 11 , uncertainty, the 12 that comes from spending a lifetime playing one game 13 , mid-way through, that the rules have suddenly changed, seem to have 14 the old categories of self, work and meaning for many men.

For some years now, sociologists have been tracking the patterns of what they call 17 in men and women"s lives. Mostly, when we think of this, we tend to focus 18 how they live, what they do, spend their time, whether they do or do not empty the dishwasher or care for their children. But what about how they feel? Now that this final frontier is being breached, I wonder if we aren"t fully prepared to see more meaningful change in men"s—and women"s and families " —lives than ever before. That is: if we can 19 the change and act 20 it with courage, not fear.

单选题A recent history of the Chicago meat-packing industry and its workers examines how the industry grew from its appearance in the 1830's through the early 1890's. Meat-packers, the author argues, had good wages, working conditions, and prospects for advancement within the packinghouses, and did not cooperate with labor agitators since labor relations were so harmonious. Because the history maintains that conditions were above standard for the era, the frequency of labor disputes, especially in the mid-1880's, is not accounted for. The work ignores the fact that the 1880's were crucial years in American labor history, and that the packinghouse workers! efforts were part of the national movement for labor reform. In fact, other historical sources for the late nineteenth century record deteriorating housing and high disease and infant mortality rates in the industrial community, due to low wages and unhealthy working conditions. Additional date from the University of Chicago suggest that the packing houses were dangerous places to work. The government investigations commissioned by President Theodore Roosevelt which eventually led to the adoption of the 1906 Meat Inspection Act found the packinghouses unsanitary, while observed that most of the workers were poorly paid and overworked. The history may be too optimistic because most of its data date from the 1880's at the latest, and the information provided from that decade is insufficiently analyzed. Conditions actually declined in the 1880's, and continued to decline after the 1880's, due to are organization of the packing process and a massive influx of unskilled workers. The deterioration. In worker status, partly a result of the new availability of unskilled and hence cheap labor, is not discussed. Though a detailed account of work in the packing-houses is attempted, the author fails to distinguish between the wages and conditions for skilled workers and for those unskilled laborers who comprised the majority of the industry's workers from the 1880's on. While conditions for the former were arguably tolerable due to the strategic importance of skilled workers in the complicated slaughtering, cutting and packing process (though worker complaints about the rate and conditions of work were frequefit), pay and conditions for the latter were wretched. The author's misinterpretation of the origins of the feelings the meat-packers had for their industrial neighborhood may account for the history's faulty generalizations. The pride and contentment the author remarks upon were, arguably, less the products of the industrial world of the packers--the giant yards and the intricate plants--than of the unity and vibrancy of the ethnic cultures that formed a viable community on Chicago's South Side. Indeed, the strength of this community succeeded in generating a social movement that effectively confronted the problems of the industry that provided its livelihood.
