A The Spanish Government is so worried about the number of young adults still living with their parents that it has decided to help them leave the nest.
Around 55 per cent of people aged 18-34 in Spain still sleep in their parents’ homes, says the latest report from the country’s state-run Institute of Youth.
To coax (persuade gently or gradually) young people from their homes, the institute started a "Youth Emancipation (解放)" programme this month. The programme offers guidance in finding rooms and jobs.
Economists blame young people’s family dependence on the precarious (不稳定的) labour market and increasing housing prices. Housing prices have risen 17 percent a year since 2000.
Cultural reasons also contribute to the problem, say sociologists. Family ties in south Europe — Italy, Portugal and Greece — are stronger than those in middle and north Europe, said Spanish sociologist Almudena Moreno Minguez in her report "The Late Emancipation of Spanish Youth: Key for Understanding".
"In general, young people in Spain firmly believe in the family as the main body around which their private life is organized," said Minguez.
In Spain — especially in the countryside, it is not uncommon to find entire groups of aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews all living on the same street. They regularly get together for Sunday dinner.
Parents’ tolerance is another factor. Spanish parents accept late-night partying and are wary of setting bedtime rules.
"A child can arrive home at whatever time he wants. If parents complain he’ll put up a fight and call the father a fascist (a fascist is someone who does not allow any opposition)," said Jose Antonio Gomez Yanez, a sociologist at Carlos III University in Madrid.
Mothers’ willingness to do children’s household chores (杂务) worsens the problem. Dionisio Masso, a 60-year-old in Madrid, has three children in their 20s. The eldest, 28, has a girlfriend and a job. But life with mum is good. "His mum does the wash and cooks for him; in the end, he lives well," Masso said. [br] What is said about Dionisio Masso in the passage?
选项
A、Her eldest son lives better with his girlfriend than with her.
B、She is willing to do the chores for her grown-up children.
C、Her daughter-in-law will live with her in the future.
D、She is forced to do the household chores for the whole family.
答案
B
解析
文章倒数第二段首句提到,母亲们愿意为孩子们操持家务恶化了这一问题,随后举例说明:60多岁的Dionisio Masso生活在马德里,有三个二十几岁的孩子。她最大的孩子28岁,有女朋友和工作,但和妈妈生活十分惬意。末段进行了具体解释说明:Masso说:“他的母亲为他洗衣服、做饭;结果他生活的很好。”B)“她愿意为成年子女料理家务”与原文意思相符,故为答案,同时可排除A)。C)在文中未提及,故排除。母亲们是自愿为孩子做家务,故排除D)。
