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] What does the sentence "There need be no struggle between the sexes so long as each sex fulfills those tasks nature has established for it to do." (Sentence 2) mean?
选项
A、The Germans think that the pre-war housewife was oppressed.
B、It’s unnecessary for German husband and housewife to fulfill their tasks.
C、It’s natural that each sex do what it should do.
D、Women shouldn’t struggle for their freedom.
答案
C
解析
第二句中的there need be no need“没有必要”以及nature has established for it to do“自然赋予”是理解的关键,结合第一句,可知战前人们将妇女遭受压迫视为很自然的事。
