Part B
Directions :
Read the opinions given, by five scholars on challenges facing today"s single women,. For questions 61 to 65, match the name of each scholar to one of the statements(A to G)given below. Mark your answers on, ANS WER SHEET 1.
Timothy Constance:
What the women I spoke with said was that they want a husband who is independent and dedi-cated to
his career, but that he doesn"t have to make a lot of money. The emphasis was always on finding a best
friend-a soul mate-someone you could tell all your troubles to and who would be supportive. So it
doesn" t seem to be the case that these women were looking for super high -achieving men.
Grise Levison:
I think that for women, as well as for men, the standard for someone who you"d want to spend your life
with depends much more today on emotional intimacy. It takes some trial and error and a pretty long
and dedicated search to identify the kind of person who is emotionally matchingyou and who is able to
communicate and listen to trouble talk.
Marry Brown:
In recent decades girls have been raised to be more competitive and stronger than they were in the
past. Several women I talked to mentioned that in their life they felt that their intelligence or intellectual
achievement seemed to work against them in their romantic relationships with men. How ever, most of
the women I interviewed felt that there were some men "out there" who would be attracted to smart
women. The problem was finding them.
Donna Smith:
I think, for the women I talked to, their ultimate sense of what they want in life includes family and
children, but they aren"t willing to think about the fact that they therefore will probably have to give up
some of their own individual pursuits and career goals. I think the definition of suc-cess includes both
love and work, and that the challenge is how to arrange that in a particular or-der.
Elizabeth Budy:
I think that people who have done at least some of the things that are essential for a wise judg-ment
about a partner are more likely to eventually end up in a stable marriage. It" s also true that they"re likely
to marry someone who is similar to them in education and earning power, which means that those
marriages are likely to have more money in them.
Now match the name of each scholar (6/ t0 65) to the appropriate statement.
Note: there are two extra statements.
[ A] Career success is in fact not a disadvantage.
[ B] The ability to choose a right partner ensures a stable marriage.
[ C] How to balance career with family is key to success.
[D] The essential part of marriage is the union of soul.
[E] Finding an emotionally intimate mate isn" t a piece of cake.
[ F] Career success ensures a solid marriage.
[ G] Social assistance is needed for today" s single women.
61. Timothy Constance 请帮忙给出正确答案和分析,谢谢!

参考答案

正确答案:D
下面这段文字是5个学者对于当下单身女性面临的挑战的不同观点。蒂莫西?康斯坦斯:和我交谈过的那些女士们说,她们希望找到一个独立、敬业的丈夫.但不一定要很有钱。她们一直强调是要找到一个好朋友——一个心灵的伴侣—你可以告诉他你所有的问题和困惑,而且他也会很支持你。所以,她们并不是要找那些具有极大成就的男人做丈夫。格里斯?利维森:我认为对女人和男人都一样,选择什么样的人共度今生取决于融洽的感情。要想找到一个真正能在情感上配得上你的人,而且这个人可以与你很好地交流并能聆听你的烦恼,往往需要经过一段很长很复杂的苦苦寻觅,这中间你会经历考验甚至会犯些小错误。玛丽?布朗:在当今的时代,女孩们被培养得比过去更有能力和竞争力。在我曾经访谈的几位女士中,有很多都提到在她们的生活中,她们在智慧或学识上的成就往往不利于她们的爱情。然而,我采访的大多数女士都认为,一定会有很多男士会被这些聪明的女人所吸引的。问题是如何找到这些男士。唐娜?史密斯:对于那些我交谈过的女士来说,我认为她们人生的最终追求目标都是包括家庭和孩子的,但是她们不愿意思索这样一个事实:她们因为家庭和孩子可能不得不放弃她们个人的追求和事业目标。我认为成功的定义应该包括爱情和工作两方面。我们面临的挑战是如何有序地安排这两者。伊丽莎白?布迪:我认为那些对理想的伴侣的某些必要条件做出明智决策的人更容易最终获得稳固的婚姻。而且,他们也更倾向于和自己有相似的教育背景和经济能力的人结婚。这就意味着,这样的婚姻里面金钱的因素更多。61.D【精析】主旨题。TimothyConstance认为女士们找伴侣的标准主要是心灵的伴侣,与D项的“婚姻的核心部分是精神的结合”表示相同的意思。故选D。
