2、s.Beginning in the early 20th century,thetwo-parent family known as thenuclear family was the predominantAmerican family type.Generally children live with their parentsuntil they go away to a college oruniversity,or until they find jobs andacquire an apartment or home oftheir own.In the early mid-20
3、th century,the fatherwas typically the sole wage-earner,and the mother was the childrens principalcaregiver.Today,often both parents hold jobs.Dual-earner families are thepredominant type for families with childrenin the United States.Increasingly,one of the parents has anon-standard shift,that is,a
4、 shiftthat does not start in the morning and endin the late afternoon.In these families,one of the parents manages the childrenwhile the otherworks.Prior to school,adequate day care ofchildren is necessary for dual-earnerfamilies.In recent years,many privatecompanies and home-based daycare centers h

7、eeth than they do alonewith their children?A new study from the University of NewSouth Wales has discovered thatduring the working week,Australianfathers only spend an average ofjust over a minute each day alone withtheir children.Australian mothers,on theother hand,spend three hours a weekpurelyloo
8、king after their children-a muchgreater disparity than in other countrieslike America,Denmark,Italy,and France,where couples divide thechildcare more evenly.These findings willprobably infuriate those who want to shakeoff theperhaps unfair image of Australia as a landof old-fashioned malechauvinism.
9、According to the study,Australian fathers appear to like the funaspects ofparenthood,but shy away from the boringhousework.So while they tend tobe happy taking the kids to the park or tosporting events,they are unlikely toparticipate regularly in feeding,bathing,ortaking the kids to school.In short,
10、Australian parenting is seen as a womansjob and a mans hobby.Many people believe that the last 20 yearshave seen the arrival of the so-calledew man-th e man who is willing to sharethe housework andchildcare.The new man has a picture of hischildren on his computer desktop at work;he never misses the
11、kids school plays,andhe skips a drink at the bar afterwork so that he can get home in time to readbedtime story to their kids.This studysuggests that the new man feels a littlemore at home inEurope than in Australia.Indeed,a pollconducted in the U.K.for the think tank theFatherhoodInstitute in Janua
12、ry indicates that almost70 percent of British women thinkthat men are as good at raising children aswomen.Thats something for Australianmen to ponder while they brush their teeth!Keys:1.B 2.A 3.A 4.B 5.ATask3:Views on filial piety see changeScript:With fast economic development inHong Kong,young peo
13、ple are lesslikely to cherish the traditional notion offilial piety.Instead,they are graduallytaking a new approach to a welfaresociety,according to a three-year surveyconducted by the City University of HongKong.As many as 85 percent of therespondents expect the government totakeup the responsibili
14、ty for supporting theelderly,and 77 percent agree withthe idea that the burden should fall onsociety as a whole rather than onindividual families.Researcher RichardWong,who took charge of the study,is sadabout theeroding of traditional family bonds.He said that while most people still respecttheir p
15、arents and grandparents,they tend to equate economic assistancewith love.When asked about how theywould show their love for their old parents,many simply said they would send them toold peoples homes.Others said they would give money,andonly two percent of therespondents said they would be ready tot
16、ake care of the psychologicalhealth of their parents.According to thestudy,middle-aged people who havechildren of theirown take their filial duties more seriously.Also,married women know better thanmen the need for this kind ofloving care.Researcher Wong questionedthe wisdom of adopting the new conc
