For decades, the debate about balancing work and family life has been framed as an issue for women. Many studies have shown that motherhood is【C1】______taxing (负担重的) than fatherhood) mothers typically reported higher【C2】______of unhappiness and pressure than women【C3】______children or men in general. Over the years, this disparity (不平等) has helped【C4】______the gender wars, in policy debates and at home, often over a【C5】______of dirty laundry.
Men, the truism (众所周知的道理) went, did not do their【C6】______of the grocery shopping or diaper (尿布) changing. They let women pull the【C7】______shift.
But several studies show that fathers are now struggling just【C8】______much—and sometimes even more—than mothers in trying to【C9】______their responsibilities at home and in the office. Just last week, Boston College【C10】______a study called "The New Dad" suggesting that new fathers face a subtle bias in the workplace,【C11】______fails to recognize their stepped-up family responsibilities and【C12】______that they will be largely【C13】______by children.
Fathers also seem more unhappy than mothers with the juggling act: In dual-earner couples, 59 percent of fathers report【C14】______level of "work-life conflict", compared【C15】______about 45 percent of women, according to a 2008 report from the Families and Work Institute in New York.
The research highlights the singular challenges of fathers. Men are【C16】______the primary breadwinner, but they also increasingly report a【C17】______to spend more time with their children. To do so, they must first navigate a workplace that is often【C18】______to give them time off for family reasons, And they must【C19】______with a wife who may not always recognize their【C20】______at home.

选项
A、share
B、duty
C、responsibility
D、burden
答案
A
解析
名词辨析题。这里仍然是承接上文的意思,说明男性在做家务活 方面不肯担起属于他们的那份责任一一帮家里采购或者是给孩子换尿布,而是将其都推给女性,故share“份额”最符合句意。doone’s share of work为常用短语,意为“做某人应做的那份工作”。
