There are many reasons why family life in Britain has changed so much in the last 50 years. The liberation of women in the early part of the 20th century and social and economic effects of the World War II had a great impact on the traditional family life. Women became essential to industry and professions. During the war, they had worked in factories and proved their worth.[20]Now with the loss of millions of men their service was indispensable to the nation.
More recently great advances in scientific knowledge, and particularly in medicine have had enormous social consequences. Children are better cared for and are far healthier. Infant death rate was low. Above all, parents now can plan the size of their family if they wish due to more effective means of birth control.
Different attitudes to religion, authority and tradition generally have also contributed to changes in family life. But these developments have affected all aspects of society.[21]It is particularly interesting to know that the concept of the family as a social unit has survived all these challenges.
19. What is the passage mainly about?
20. Why did British women become indispensable to industry after World War II?
21. What remained unchanged in spite of all the challenges in family life?
选项
A、Because millions of men died in the war.
B、Because women had proved their worth.
C、Because women were more skilful than men.
D、Because factories preferred to employ women.
答案
A
解析
细节题。短文中提到,二战期间英国失去了大量的男性工作者(withthe loss of millions of men),女性的服务变得至关重要(their service wasindispensable to the nation),可见二战后女士对工业发展至关重要是因为大量男性死于二战,故答案为A)。
