问答题When workers become more efficient, it's normally a good thing. But lately, it has acted as a powerful brake on job creation. And the question of whether the recent surge in productivity has run its course is the key to whether job growth is finally poised to take off. One of the great surprises of the economic downturn that began 27 months ago is this.. Businesses are producing only 3 percent fewer goods and services than they were at the end of 2007, yet Americans are working nearly 10 percent fewer hours because of a mix of layoffs and cutbacks in the workweek. (46) That means high-level gains in productivity--which in the long run is the key to a higher standard of living but in the short run contributes to sky-high unemployment. So long as employers can squeeze dramatically higher output from every worker, they won't need to hire again despite the growing economy. (47) On Friday, the Labor Department will release a closely watched March employment report expected to show the strongest job growth in three years, driven by stabilization in the economy and a rebound from February snowstorms. A strong March job-growth number-at a time when the economy is growing at only a middling pace--would suggest that the productivity boom has largely run its course. (48) Regardless, the question of what caused the burst in workers' efficiency is one of the great unanswered questions of the expansion and has huge stakes for the economy over the coming year. "It is an episode that we're going to--we, economists in general--are going to want to understand better and look at for a long time," Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke said at a hearing last week in which he described the productivity gains as "extraordinary" and acknowledged he had not foreseen them. (49) Businesses have certainly not been investing in new equipment that might enable workers to be more efficient-capital expenditures plummeted during the recession and are rebounding slowly. (50) And the structural shifts occurring in the economy are so profound that one would expect productivity to be lower, rather than higher, as people need new training to work in parts of the economy that are growing, such as exports and the clean-energy sector. So what's happening? As best as anyone can guess, the crisis that began in 2007 and deepened in 2008 caused both businesses and workers to panic.

问答题If you were a woman reading this magazine 40 years ago, the odds
were good that your husband provided the money to buy it. That you voted the
same way he did. That if you got breast cancer, he might be asked to sign the
form authorizing an operation. That your son was heading to college but not your
daughter. {{U}} {{U}} 1 {{/U}} {{/U}}{{U}}That your boss, if you
had a job, could explain that he was paying you less because, after all, you
were probably working just for pocket money.{{/U}} It's funny how
things change slowly, until the day we realize they've changed
completely.{{U}} {{U}} 2 {{/U}} {{/U}}{{U}}It's expected that by
the end of the year, for the first time in history the maioriw of workers in the
U.S. will be women-largely because the downturn has hit men so hard.{{/U}} This is
an extraordinary change in a single generation, and it is gathering speed. More
and more women are the primary breadwinner in their household (almost 40%) or
are providing essential income for the family's bottom line. Their buying power
has never been greater-and their choices have seldom been harder.
It is in this context that the Rockefeller Foundation, in collaboration
with TIME, conducted a landmark survey of gender issues to assess how individual
Americans are reacting. {{U}} {{U}} 3 {{/U}} {{/U}}{{U}}The study
found that men and women are in broad agreement about what matters most to them,
and as the Old Economy dissolves and pressures on working parents grow, they
share their fears and frustration{{/U}}. However, this is not to say there's
nothing left to argue about. More than two-thirds of women still think men
resent powerful women, yet women are more likely than men to say female bosses
are harder to work for than male ones. {{U}} {{U}}
4 {{/U}} {{/U}}{{U}}Among the most puzzling changes of all is the
evidence, tracked by numerous surveys, that as women have gained more freedom,
more education and more economic power, they have become less happy{{/U}}. No tidy
theory explains the trend, but there are a few ways to look at it. {{U}}
{{U}} 5 {{/U}} {{/U}}{{U}}It may be that women have become more honest
about what troubles them; Or that they are now free to wrestle with the same
pressures and conflicts that once accounted for greater male unhappiness{{/U}}. Or
that modern life in a global economy is simply more stressful for everyone but
especially for women, who are working longer hours while playing quarterback at
home. Today's world is no longer a man's world, nor is it a
woman's nation. It's a cooperative, with bylaws under constant negotiation and
expectations that profits be equally shared.

问答题Traditionally, the woman has held a low position in marriage partnerships. While her husband went his way, she had to wash, stitch and sew. Today the move is to liberate the woman, which may in the end strengthen the marriage union. Perhaps the greatest obstacle to friendship in marriage is the amount a couple usually sees of each other. Friendship in its usual sense is not tested by the strain of daily, year-long cohabitation. (46) Couples need to take up separate interests (and friendship) as well as mutually shared ones, if they are not to get used to the more attractive elements of each other's personalities. (47) Married couples are likely to exert themselves for guests--being amusing, discussing with passion and point--and then to fall into dull exhausted silence when the guests have gone. As in all friendship, a husband and wife must try to interest each other, and to spend sufficient time sharing absorbing activities to give-them continuing common interests, (48) But at the same time they must spend enough time on separate interests with separate people to preserve and develop their separate personalities and keep their relationship fresh. (49) For too many highly intelligent working women, home represents chore obligations, because the husband only tolerates her work and does not participate in household chores. For too many highly intelligent working men, home represents dullness and complaints--from an over-dependent wife who will not gather courage to make their own life. In such an atmosphere, the partners grow further and further apart, both love and liking disappearing. (50) For too many couples with children, the children are allowed to command all time and attention, allowing the couple no time to develop liking and friendship, as well as love, allotting exclusive parental roles.
