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 can be concluded from the passage?
选项
A、After the war German women have equal rights to men’s.
B、Equal rights are acceptable in theory but not in practice.
C、German husbands are open-minded and humorous.
D、Women’s position is superior to men’s.
答案
B
解析
依据文章的最后部分“They still cling to the idea that housework and bringing up children are women’s work.”以及一位东德家庭主妇对男人的描述:平等意味着男人与女人同样从事全日制工作,而回到家,妻子却要打扫房间和照看孩子,而丈夫却可以坐在电视机前喝啤酒。由此可以看出,德国的男人只是在理论上接受妇女解放,而非行动上,故B项为正确答案。
