How many men do housework? Recently a European commission (委员会) tried to find out people's ideas and reactions to the women's movement. As part of their survey (调查), they asked many men and women the question: “Who does the housework?” The men answered very differently from the women!
The housework they asked people about were: preparing meals, washing dishes, cleaning the house and babysitting. 48% of British husbands said they did these things. 37% of Danish men helped in the house. But only 15% of Italian men said they did the housework; many of them said they never helped at all.
But there was an interesting point of view from the wives. According to British wives, only 38% of their husbands helped in the house. And Italian wives said that their husbands hardly ever helped. The Italian and British men did not tell the truth! The Commission found that Danish men were the most trustful husbands; their answers were the same as their wives' answers.
Do the men you know help in the house? Do you think the survey gives a true picture in your experience?

The last day of the final examination arrived. In a large eastern university, on the steps of one building, a group of students were talking about the exam that was going to begin in a few 26. On their faces was confidence. This was their 27 exam—then on to graduation and jobs.
Some talked of jobs they already had, others talked of jobs they 28 get. With the certainty of four years of college, they felt 29 and able to take control of the world.
The coming exam, they knew, would be a(n) 30 task, as the professor had said they could bring 31books or notes they wanted, requesting only that they did not 32 each other during the test.
33 they entered the classroom. The professor handed out the papers. And smiles 34 on the students’ faces as they found there were only five questions.
Three hours had passed 35 the professor began to collect papers. The students no longer looked confident. On their faces was a frightened expression. Papers in hand, no one spoke as the professor faced the class.
He looked at the 36 faces before him, and then asked, “How many completed all five questions?” 37 a hand was raised.
“How many answered four?” Still no hand.
“Three? Two?” The students moved restlessly in their seats.
“One, then? Certainly somebody finished 38 .”But the class remained silent.
The professor put down the papers. “That is exactly what I 39 ,” he said. “I just want you to know that, although you have completed four years of study, there are 40 many things about the 41 you don’t know. These questions you could not answer are relatively common in 42 practice.” Then, smiling, he added, “You will all 43 this course, but remember—even though you are now college graduates, your education had just 44 .”
The years have weakened the name of the professor, but not the 45 he taught.
