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] The divorce rate in East Germany is high probably because ______.
选项
A、the success of a marriage is based on the inequality of sex
B、there is now a struggle for dominance for the couple
C、women now feel free to commit adultery
D、men still wish to remain dominant
答案
D
解析
依据文章最后一段得知,东德的离婚率高至世界第八位,其原因可能是因为丈夫与妻子之间的竞争,而非私通。这说明,原来丈夫处于主导地位是顺理成章的事,但现在妇女解放了,地位提高了,与丈夫平起平坐了。因此,丈夫如果还想保持其原有的主导地位,必然导致婚姻破裂,所以D项“男人仍想保持主导地位”应是正确答案。
