As working women continue to receive better and better wages, house wives still work at home without receiving paychecks. Should a woman who works at home, doing the housework and caring for children, be paid for her services? In a 1986 study at Cornell University, it was found that the value of the services of a housewife averaged $ 11,600 a year. This rate was based on a family com posed of a husband, wife, and three young children. The $11,600 is what the husband would have to pay if he hired others to take over his wife’s household work. The researchers concluded that it would be fair for husbands to pay wives according to government guidelines(方针)for least amounts of wages.
Another plan for rewarding women who work at home has been suggested by Dr. Johnson, a former Secretary of Health and Human Services. He says that full-time housewives should be allowed to pay social security taxes(社会保障金) ,with their employers (that is ,their husbands) offering part of the payment. He feels that the present system is unfair. He said, "If you work in a store you can qualify for Social Security, but if you stay at home and raise a family, you can’t qualify for it." [br] Why does Dr. Johnson think that the present system is unfair?
选项
A、Husbands are paying the social security taxes for their wives.
B、Women working at home can’t get social security.
C、Bosses refuse to pay part of the taxes for female employees.
D、Full-time housewives are required to pay social security taxes.
答案
B
解析
判断题。该题考查学生的判断和推导能力。文章第二段第二句中指出“full—time housewives should be al lowed to pay social security taxes”,应该允许全职太太支付社会保险税。“Should”一词表示这是应该的但实际上没有支付。交税就应该得到社会保障金,而没有收入就不可能交税。由此可以推断她们没有收入,也得不到社会保障金,这是非常不公平的。所以本题选B 。
