单选题The writer thinks that one can hold fast to his dream by ______.

单选题The cohesiveness (内聚力) of a family seems to rely on members sharing certain routine practices and events. For a growing share of the American labor force, however, working shifts beyond the normal daylight hours—what we here call "shift work"—makes the lives of families difficult. Existing research shows that both male and female shift workers express high levels of stress and a sense of conflict between the demands of work and family life. But shift work couples still maintain a traditional attitude to the meaning of marriage and the individual roles of husband and wife. They expressed a willingness to do "whatever it takes" to approximate their view of a proper marriage, including sacrificing sleep and doing conventional things at unconventional hours. For the majority of couples interviewed, even when wives worked outside their homes, a proper marriage is characterized by a very clear division of roles: husbands are "providers" whose major responsibility is to support the family; wives are "homemakers" who clean, cook, and care for husbands and children. The women's definitions of a "good husband" are typified by the following wife's response: I expect him to be a good provider, and be there when I need him, loyal about the same things as he would expect out of me, expect that I expect him to dominate over me. But in a manner of speaking, when it's time to be a man I expect him to stand up instead of sitting back expecting me to do everything. To husbands, a good wife is someone who is: Understanding of what I feel go through at work. I need that respect at work, I hope I get it at work. I want my wife to realize what I expect at work. I don't want her to give me a lot of shit when I come home from work because I don't know if this makes much sense. These views seemed critical to maintain the families of the shift workers.

单选题{{B}}Text 2{{/B}} Some futurologists have assumed that the vast upsurge of women in the workforce may portend a rejection of marriage. Many women, according to this hypothesis, would rather work than marry. The converse of this concern is that the prospects of becoming a multi-paycheck household could encourage marriage. In the past, only the earnings and financial prospects of the man counted in the marriage decision. Now, however, the earning ability of a woman can make her more attractive as a marriage partner. Data show that economic downturns tend to putting off marriage because the parties cannot afford to establish a family or are concerned about rainy days ahead. As the economy comes to life, the number of marriages also rises. The increase in divorce rates follows to the increase in women working outside the home. Yet, it may be wrong to jump to any simple cause-and-effect conclusions. The impact of a wife's work on divorce is no less cloudy than its impact on marriage decisions. The realization that she can be a good provider may increase the chances that a working wife will choose divorce over an unsatisfactory marriage. But the reverse is equally plausible (似是而非的). Tensions grounded in financial problems often play a key role in ending a marriage. By raising a family's standard of living, a working wife may strengthen her family's financial and emotional stability. Psychological factors also should be considered. For example, a wife blocked from a career outside the home may feel caged in the house. She may view her only choice as seeking a divorce. On the other hand, if she can find fulfillment through work outside the home, work and marriage can go together to create a stronger and more stable union. Also, a major part of women's inequality in marriage has been due to the fact that, in most cases, men have remained the main breadwinners. A working wife may rob a husband of being the master of the house. Depending upon how the couple reacts to these new conditions, it could create a stronger equal partnership or it could create new insecurities.

单选题What does the man like?

单选题Guise I used to think I had to do all of them, and I was doing them all the time, from the moment I woke up until I flew out the door for work... Then one day I went to see the counselor and he suggested I experiment by not making my bed for two weeks... It' s incredible. I never felt better. And you know what? I don' t dry my dishes anymore ,either. I discovered I had choices in my life and my life is so much different now. Holtz I used to take better care of my house and car than I did of myself. I put everyone else' s needs ahead of my own. That' s fine if it' s occasional. It would even be okay if there was a balance. But then one day I realized I was wearing myself out. Fortunately, yes, and that' s the key, too. I know life doesn' t have to be like that. The point is to do something for myself every day. Legh I got busy and ran short of time. I stopped exercising and started to skip meals, then I stole time from my sleep. Soon I found myself too busy to see morn and dad and friends. I stopped reading and playing ball, and six months went by without a long walk... Then I realized that was not a great way to live. I' ve got to change. I know where to begin. I picked them up one by one. Clan It took a long time for me to realize that fax machines and cellular phones don' t save time but merely speed up the already hectic pace of life. And trying to be more efficient isn' t the key, either. That' s just a way of cramming more into less time. I then came to realize that we really should be aiming to do less and enjoy it more. And the thing is I never bring my briefcase home from the office any more. Jelly I didn' t know what I was busy doing. I only knew I was terribly tired and needed to take a nap. I needed to take a walk. I needed to sit down and lean back. I believed in it, you know, save the best for the last. Then I realized it probably would never happen if it always got left until last. Work before health and pleasure soon becomes work instead of health and pleasure. Thank God I' m so different now. I' m so very, very back. Now match each of the persons with the appropriate statement. Note: there are two extra statements. Statements A. I can be less than perfect. B. Exercise, leisure, friendships and hobbies should also be regular aspects of life. C. Change "others first" into "me, too". D. Physical and mental enjoyments are as important as work.F. Work even more efficiently.G. Enjoy my office and family life.
