题文

Now some women are spending a weekend at Mother's Camp. There, husbands and children are not allowed. Why would a woman want to take a vacation without her family? Some women say they need time to be alone. At Mother's Camp a woman has room to herself. She can sleep, read or watch TV, and no one will bother her. No children will ask, "Mom, what's for dinner?" No husband will say, "Oh, dear, I can't find any clean socks." In fact almost 50% of women in the United States work outside the home. Many of them work full-time and then come home to a second job  -  taking care of their homes and families. These working women say one of their biggest problems is housework. In the United States, working wives do about 75% of the housework. Many of their husbands say they want to help. But then they burn the rice or they can't find the pans. They ask so many questions that their wives decide it is easier to do the job themselves. Some women go to Mother's Camp just to get a break from housework. For two days they don't cook, they don't clean, and they don't look after their children and husbands. What do they do? They enjoy warm, sunny weather, walking, swimming or boating in a clear blue lake and sing songs around the campfire. They relax away from home. They have a really wonderful vacation at Mother's Camp ! 小题1:Why would some mothers like to be alone? A．Because they have too many friends. B．Because they can't get along well with others.

小题1:C 小题2:B 小题3:A 小题4:D 小题5:C

试题分析：这篇文章主要讲了现在有一些妇女在Mother’s Camp过周末。丈夫和小孩不允许进入Mother’s Camp。在那里，她们有自己的空间，可以睡觉、看电视，没有人去打扰她们。因为在美国，这些有工作的妻子要做75%的工作。她们想要在Mother’s Camp好好地度假。 小题1:推理判断题。根据 Many of them work full-time and then come home to a second job  -  taking care of their homes and families.句意：她们中有很多人是全职工，然后回到家里做第二份工作----照顾家庭和家人。由此可看出，她们想要独处是因为平时她们太忙了，没时间放松。故选C。 小题2:推理判断题。根据 There, husbands and children are not allowed.句意：丈夫和小孩不允许进入Mother’s Camp。可知她们不是和家人一起度周末的。可知应选B。 小题3:细节理解题。根据These working women say one of their biggest problems is housework. 句意：这些有全职工作的女人说她们最大的问题之一就是家务。do housework就是do chores at home。故选A。 小题4:推理判断题。根据 In the United States, working wives do about 75% of the housework.句意：在美国，这些有工作的妻子要做75%的家务。可知她们要做太多的家务以致于她们想要休息。可知应选D。 小题5:标题归纳题。这篇文章主要讲了妈妈们想在Mother’s Camp过周末，远离家人，好好放松休息。故选C。
