23、   Having a husband means an extra seven hours of housework each week for women, according to a new study. For men, getting married saves an hour of housework a week. "It's a well-known pattern(模式)," said lead researcher Frank Stafford at University of Michigan's Institute for Social Research. "Men usually work more outside the home, while women take on more of the housework."

He points out that differences among households(家庭) exist. But in general, marriage means more housework for women and less for men. "And the situation gets worse for women when they have children," Stafford said.

Overall, times are changing in the American home. In 1976, women busied themselves with 26 weekly hours of housework, compared with 17 hours in 2005. Men are taking on more housework, more than doubling their housework hours from 6 in 1976 to 13 in 2005.

Single women in their 20s and 30s did the least housework, about 12 weekly hours, while married women in their 60s and 70s did the most-about 21 hours a week.

Men showed a somewhat different pattern, with older men picking up the broom(扫帚) more often than younger men. Single men worked the hardest around the house, more than that of all other age groups of married men.

Having children increases housework even further. With more than three children, for example, wives took on more of the extra work, clocking about 28 hours a week compared with husbands'10 hours.

【1】According to the "well-known pattern" in Paragraph 1, a married man ________.

A.takes on heavier work B.does more housework

C.is the main breadwinner D.is the master of the house

【2】How many hours of housework did men do every week in the 1970s?

A.About 23. B.About 28. C.About 13. D.About 6.

【3】What kind of man is doing most housework according to the text?

A.An unmarried man. B.An older married man.

C.A younger married man. D.A married man with children.

【4】What can we conclude from Stafford's research?

A.Marriage gives men less freedom. B.Marriage has effects on job choices.

C.Housework sharing changes over time. D.Having children means doubled housework.

24、“Did you see that?” Joe said to his friend Bill. “You play basketball so well!”

Bill caught the basketball and threw it again. The ball flew into the net.

“But I can’t when I’m in a real game,” Bill said unhappily.

Bill was right. He played much better when he was having fun with Joe in the school playground than he did when he was playing for the school team in front of a large crowd.

“Maybe you just need to practise more,” Joe said.

“But I practise all the time with you! I just can’t play well when people are watching me,” Bill said.

“You play well when I’m watching.”

“That’s because I’ve known you since we were five years old. I’m just not comfortable playing when other people are around.”

Joe understood, but he also had an idea.

The next day Joe and Bill met in the school playground again to practise. After a few minutes, Joe said to his friend, “Practise without me. I’ll be back in a minute.”

Joe hurried through the school building, gathering (召集) a group of people.

When Joe explained why he needed them, everyone was happy to help. Joe told the group to stay quiet. Bill made five baskets in a row (连续) without noticing the people standing behind him.

“Hey, Bill!” Joe called out finally. Bill turned. A look of surprise came over his face.

“I just wanted to show you that you could play well with people watching you,” Joe said. “Now you’ll have nothing to worry about for the next game.”

【1】Why was Bill unhappy?

A．His team lost too many games.

B．Joe watched him too closely when he played.

C．The school playground was not a good place to practise.

D．He played better in practice than he did during games.

【2】Where did Bill practise the next day?

A．In the park.

B．In his community.

C．In the school playground.

D．In the playground near his house.

【3】Why did Joe decide to gather a group of people?

A．Because he wanted to show them his skills.

B．Because he wanted more players for his team.

C．Because he wanted to help Bill feel less nervous.

D．Because he wanted more people to watch the next game.
