For many women choosing whether to work or not to work outside their home is a luxury; they must work to survive. Others face a hard decision. Perhaps the choice has to do with economics. One husband said, "Marge and I decided after careful consideration that for her to go back to work at this moment was an extravagance. We couldn′t afford it." With two preschool children, it soon became clear in their figuring that with babysitters, transportation, and increased taxes, rather than having more money, they might actually end up with less.
Economic factors are usually the first to be considered, but they are not the most important. The most important aspects of the decision have to do with the emotional needs of each member of the family. It is in this area that husbands and wives find themselves having to face many confusing and conflicting feelings.
There are many women who find that homemaking is boring or who feel imprisoned if they have to stay home with a young child or several children. On the other hand, there are women who think that homemaking gives them the deepest satisfaction.
From my own experience, I would like to suggest that sometimes the decision to go back to work is made in too much haste. There are few decisions that I now regret more. I wasn′t mature enough to see how much I could have gained at home. I regret my impatience to get on with my career. I wish I had allowed myself the luxury of watching the world through my little girl′s eyes.
Why did Marge and her husband think it an extravagance for Marge to go back to work?A.Because they might pay more than they earned on the whole.
B.Because they don't have the baby sitter to help them.
C.Because Marge has to take care of their children at home.
D.Because Marge has to pay more transportation fares.

Laziness is a sin, everyone knows that.We have probably all had lectures pointing out that laziness is immoral, thatit is wasteful, and that lazy people will never amount to anything in life. Butlaziness can be more harmful than that, and it is often caused by more complexreasons than simple wish to avoid work. Some people who appear to be lazy aresuffering from much more serious problems. They may be so distrustful of theirfellow workers that they are unable to join in any group task for fear ofridicule or fear of having their ideas stolen. These people who seem lazy may beparalyzed by a fear of failure that prevents fruitful work. Or other sorts offantasies (幻想)may prevent work; some people are so busy planning, sometimes planning greatdeals or fantastic achievements that they are unable to deal with whatever"lesser" work is on hand. Still other people are not avoiding work;strictly speaking, they are merely procrastinating--rescheduling their day.
Laziness can actually be helpful. Likeprocrastinators (拖延者), some people may look lazy when they are really thinking,planning, contemplating (沉思), researching. We shouldall remember that great scientific discoveries occurred by chance. Newtonwasn′t working in the orchard when the apple hit him and he devised the theoryof gravity. All of us would like to have someone "lazy" were causedby the worker′s taking time to check each step of his work and to do his jobright. And sometimes, being lazy that is, taking time off for a rest is goodfor the overworked students or executive.
Taking a rest can be particularly helpful tothe athlete who is trying too hard or the doctor who′s simply working himselfovertime too many evenings at the clinic. So be careful when you are tempted tocall someone lazy. That person may be thinking, resting, and planning his orher next book.
