　　Ⅳ. 閱讀理解

　　[2024·山西省高三年級四校聯考]

　　Research suggests that if a woman runs her household without any help, she has less interest in scaling the career ladder.

　　But the reason for this is not quite what you might expect, such as being too tired. According to experts, the satisfaction of being in charge of day-to-day domestic tasks leaves mothers with less of a thirst for success at work. If she were indeed to “have it all”—a family life, a love life and a career —she would need to be prepared to carve up some of the home decisions with her spouse, a study suggests.

　　The study asked 136 men and women aged 18 to 30 whether being in control of household decisions is something they desire. Both sexes agreed that being in charge is an advantage. Then, 150 women were asked to imagine being a married mother and either making most of the household decisions or making them jointly with her husband. Those who had imagined being in control at home placed less value on things such as earning a high salary than those who had imagined sharing the running of the household.

　　Then, almost 650 men and women were asked to imagine one of the same two scenes but with division of household chores. The men's interest in work was not affected by thoughts of being in charge at home. And if a woman imagined having to do all the chores, without making the decisions at home, she was still hungry for power in the workplace.

　　Researcher Professor Serena Chen said，“This suggests it is the power aspect of household control that reduces women's interest in power outside of the home. To realise true gender equality in both private and public fields, our results suggest women may need to at least partially give up the role of household directors and men must share such decision-making.”

　　1．What could be learned from the text?

　　A. Women are fond of doing household tasks.

　　B. Women have no interest in the office work.

　　C.

　　Women can do well at home or beyond if they share household decisions with men.

　　D. Women can do well at home as well as in the workplace.

　　2．What leaves women with less of a thirst for a successful career?

　　A. Pressure from household tasks.

　　B. Lack of working experience.

　　C. Poor physical and mental state.

　　D. Satisfaction of being in charge of household tasks.

　　3．Professor Serena Chen suggested that ________.

　　A. it was hard to realize true gender equality

　　B. men must work as household directors

　　C. men and women should share household decisions

　　D. women should be as wise as men

　　4．Who would be most interested in the text?

　　A. Researchers. B. Breadwinners.

　　C. Employers.

　　D. Working mothers.

　　[文章大意]　女性如果想在事業上有所建樹，她們就得把管理家庭事務的權力放一放。

　　1．C。考查文意理解。從全文對研究內容和結果的論述可知，妻子想在事業上成功，她就得和丈夫共同決策家庭事務。第二段最后一句也有明確提示。

　　2．D。考查細節理解。從第二段中信息“the satisfaction of being in charge of day-to-day domestic tasks leaves mothers with less of a thirst for success at work”可知，女性從掌管家庭事務中獲得的滿足感導致她們對成功事業的渴望減少。

　　3．C。考查細節理解。從最后一段中的“To realise true gender equality in both private and public fields, our results suggest women may need to at least partially give up the role of household directors and men must share such decision-making.”可知，Professor Serena Chen 認為夫妻應當分享家庭決策權。

　　4．D。考查推理判斷。文章研究婦女怎樣才能在事業上成功，因此對該文章最感興趣的應該是職業媽媽，所以D項正確。
