Housework is a frequent source of disputes (争论) between lazy husbands and their hard-working wives, but women have been warned not to expect men to pull their weight any time soon.

A study from Oxford University has found that men are unlikely to be doing an equal share of housework before 2050. Mothers, the researchers warned, will continue to shoulder the burden of childcare and housework for the next four decades, largely because housework such as cleaning and cooking is still regarded as “ women’s work”.

The gap between the amount of time men and women spend on housework has narrowed slowly over the past 40 years. But it will take another four decades before true housework equality　 is achieved, the study concluded. The research found that in the Nordic countries, the burden of housework is shared more equally between men and women. In the UK, women spend an average of four hours and forty minutes each day on housework, compared with two hours and twenty-eight minutes for men. This is an improvement from the 1960s, when British women typically spent six hours a day on housework, while men spent just 90 minutes every day.

But progress towards housework equality appears to be slowing in some countries. Dr Oriel Sullivan, a research reader from Oxford’s Department of Sociology, said, “we’ve looked at what is affecting the equality in the home, and we have found that certain tasks seem to be given according to whether they are viewed as ‘men’s work’ or ‘women’s work’.”Dr Sullivan said cultural attitudes taught at school may be responsible for the views of housework.“At school it is much easier for a girl to be a tomboy, but it is much more difficult for a boy to enjoy baking and dancing,” she said.

1.What does the underlined part word probably mean in Paragraph 1?

A. Lose weight.　　 B. Be lazy.

C. Earn money.　　 D. Do equal housework.

2.Why will women continue to do more housework before 2050 ?

A. Because men are too busy to help.

B. Because they would like to do so.

C. Because they can do better in housework　　 .

D. Because housework will still be considered as women’s work.

3.From Paragraph 3,what do we know in the UK?

A. Men now spend just 90 minutes a day on housework on average.

B. Women now are too busy with their work to do housework.

C. Women now spend less time on housework than before.

D. Housework is shared equally between men and women.

4.In Dr Sullivan’s opinion, what is to blame for the housework inequality?

A. Cultural attitudes towards housework..　　 B. Policies made by the government.

C. The time spent on work.　　 D. The type of housework.

阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。

There’s a big difference between working hard and being a workaholic. Working hard involves being organized, focused, getting a lot of work done, knowing when to stop, and having a life other than work. Workaholics, on the other hand, live entirely for work. They are often disorganized, always find reasons for working more, don’t know how or when to relax, and can’t communicate with family members.

Workaholics, like those who are constantly drunk, suffer from a controlling habit, partly because they are always full of enthusiasm for work, feeling lost without work to do. Besides, they sometimes develop their pattern of behaviour due to the environment they are in. Many companies encourage workaholism by rewarding loyal employees with higher pay and better benefits. Those unwilling to burn the midnight oil are at risk.

According to some psychologists, workaholism can be good for people to some extent. It can fuel a sense of self-worth and achievement. They get paid for it and praised for it, which produces good feelings they may not necessarily be able to obtain in other parts of their lives. Workaholism, though, is a problem that has been around for years. With competition rising these days, people ate under more stress. However, workaholics can’t stand not being active. They find it hard to go on vacation. They’re more comfortable being with fellow workers than with family and friends. Of course there is nothing wrong with their commitment, ambition and energy. But what is wrong is that these things often came in at a high price to their health and the happiness of their families.

To be a healthy person physically and psychologically, one should lead a balanced life. Those little things—reading mystery novels, playing volleyball, spending time with family and friends, playing with the dog, going fishing—means a healthy end. They can be at least as rewarding as work.
