There’s a dirty little secret in many American homes—couples fight about the housework, It’s a No. 1 issue my husband and I argue about. We argue over who is doing more, who should be doing which chores, and why my standards are unrealistic.There is always too much to take care with and, with two kids, neither one of us has the energy to keep top of it all. When the laundry, dirty dishes, and dust pile out, I feel stressed and resentful and the fighting begins. Most couples are trying to split three full-time jobs—his, her, and managing the house—between two people. There just aren’t enough hours in the day. The current arrangement is leading to a nation of tired, angry couples with no time to relax with each other and their children. It is estimated that the first child triggers an increase of 21 hours of chores per week, not included childrearing, while each additional child adds 6hours of chores. The average American mother, whether she works out of the home or not, spends 35 hours a week doing housework. When you think about the time has spent on cleaning, cooking, grocery shopping, the yard work, and laundry, it’s clear that managing a home is no small feat. So many of our parents got along without household help, the amount of hands-on parenting time at home has increased dramatic in the past 20 years. It’s no longer safe in most areas to let children play in the front yard or out in the neighborhood unsupervised. [br]
选项
答案
out→up
解析
同定搭配错误。pile out表示“挤出,走出”,例如:Edward parked by the river and we all piled out.pile up意为“堆积,积累,搁浅”,例如:The traffic starts piling up around this time.此句意为“当积满脏衣物、碗碟、灰尘时,我感到充满怨恨与压力,争吵又开始了”。
