Text 3 At first glance the patriarchy appears to be thriving.More than 90%of presidents and prime ministers are male,as are nearly all big corporate bosses.Men dominate finance,technology,films,sports,music and even stand-up comedy.In much of the world they still enjoy social and legal privileges simply because they have a Y chromosome.So it might seem odd to worry about the plight of men.Yet there is plenty of cause for concern.Men cluster at the bottom as well as the top.They are far more likely than women to be jailed,estranged from their children,or to kill themselves.They eam fewer university degrees than women.Boys in the developed world are 50%more likely to flunk basic maths,reading and science entirely.What can be done?Part of the solution lies in a change in cultural attitudes.Over the past generation,middte-class men have leamed that they need to help with child care,and have changed their behaviour.Working-class men need to catch up.Women have learned that they can be SUfgeons and physicists without losing their femininity.Men need to understand that traditional manual jobs arc not coming back,and that they can be nurses or hairdressers without losing their masculinity.Policymakers also need to lend a hand,because foolish laws are making the problem worse.America reduces the supply of marriageable men by locking up millions of young males for non-violent offences and then making it hard for them to find work when they get out(in Georgia,for example,felons are barred from feeding pigs,fighting fires or working in funeral homes).A number of rich countries discourage poor people from marrying or cohabiting by cutting their benefits ifthey do.More generally,schools need to become more boy-friendly.They should recognise that boys like to rush around more than girls do:it's better to give them lots of organised sports and energy-eating games than to dose them with Ritalin or tell them off for fidgeting.They need to provide more male role models:employing more male teachers in primary schools will both supply boys with a male to whom they can relate and demonstrate that men can be teachers as well as firefighters.The growing equality of the sexes is one of the biggest achievements of the post-war era:people have greater opportunities than ever before to achieve their ambitions regardless of their gender.But some men have failed to cope with this new world.It is time to give them a hand.Men are doing worse than women at——.A.criminal offenseB.suicide rateC.mathematicsD.human science
选项
A.criminal offense
B.suicide rate
C.mathematics
D.human science
答案
C
解析
事实细节题。根据定位词定位到文章的第二段,题目是在问,在什么方面男人不如女人,在本段的结尾处体现了这个信息,即Boys in the developed world are 50%more likely to flunk basic maths,reading and science cntirely.(发达国家的男孩在基础数学、阅读和自然科学等学科上的不及格率要比女孩高出50%。)由此可见.c项mathematics“数学”对应文章所表达的信息。故C项为正确选项。【干扰排除】剩余的三个选项泽为:犯罪行为、自杀率、人文科学,前两个信息在段落中是说远远超过女性,而人文科学在段落中没有体现,因此应当排除。
