By the standards of women’s lib, the pre-war German housewife was oppressed indeed. There need be no struggle between the sexes so long as each sex fulfills those tasks nature has established for it to do. The German house-wife kept to her three K’s—Kinder, Kuche, Kirche (children, kitchen, church).
After the war the women of the German Democratic Republic were drawn into helping rebuild their nation with the promises of equal pay for equal work and good day-care centers for their children. As a result of the government’s campaign over 80 percent of eligible (有条件的 ) women hold jobs. One-third of East Germany’s doctors and judges, 11 percent of its mayors and one-third of its college graduates are women.
But there are clouds in the heaven of liberation. The liberated woman is more than a little enthusiastic about the way she is liberating herself from her husband. East Germans have the eighth-highest divorce rate in the world. The reason for divorce is probably more often the competition between husband and wife than it is adultery (私通). The dominant role of man in marriage will end when his economic superiority ends. Men are more willing to joke about helping their wives than to help them in the kitchen. They still cling to the idea that housework and bringing up children are women’s work. As one young East German housewife puts it, "equality means my husband and I have equal rights. Equal rights means that we both work at full-time jobs. Then I clean the house and take care of the children while he sits in front of the television set and drinks beer in the evening." [br] After the war the German Democratic Republic’s policy was ______.
选项
A、to make it easy and attractive for women to work
B、to force women out of work
C、to pay mothers who stayed at home to look after the children
D、to give equal pay to women who worked in day-care centers
答案
A
解析
文章第二段大意:战后妇女们由于受到政府同工同酬,以及对工作妇女孩子的精心照料的许诺,许多妇女走出家门加入到社会的各行各业中,致使就业妇女达到80%以上,其中1/3的医生、法官为妇女;11%的妇女担当了市长职务;1/3的大学毕业生为女性。这一切都说明,政府的政策使得妇女成为职业妇女变得容易和具有诱惑力。文中的draw“吸引”一词是理解的关键。
