M: ...and be boxed in by a thousand other houses I suppose~ Surrounded by a thousand faceless neighbors. No, let' s go for the village. After all I'm the one who has to do all the traveling. Back and forth to London every day. And I would rather add a 15 minutes bus ride to the train ride than be--How does it go？--cabin' d, cribb' d confi' d. F: That' s all very well...all very well to take that romantic attitude. You know... you think you can get out of everything...wriggle out of any argument...by quoting Shakespeare. What about my preferences？ You are being selfish you know. M: Selfish？ Me？ F: Yes. Think of the children.

M: Actually, he was both highly intelligent and very rich. At first, Frida's father was against her marrying Diego because he was from an infamous family. But later on he agreed to it because he couldn't pay his daughter's medical expenses any more. Frida must have spent a fortune on doctors and operations over the years. W: Oh, yes, what a terrible life first polio and then that awful accident. It's amazing she produced so many paintings, isn't it？ M: Yes, she must have been an incredibly brave woman. W: But the marriage didn't work out too well, did it？ M: Well, it had its ups and downs. W: She painted this one with the cropped hair while they were separated, didn't she？ M: Yes, that's right. W. She really looked like a man here. In fact, she looked as if she's got a moustache! And why was she dressed in a man's suit？ I thought it might have had something to do with women's liberation. You know she cut off her hair to symbolize equality or something. M: Er, no the reason she cut off her hair and put on a man's suit is because Diego Rivera loved her long hair, and also loved the traditional women's Mexican dresses she used to wear. She did it to hurt him. (23) A．An actress. B．A writer. C．A teacher. D．A painter.

Why is it that so many mothers like mine think of themselves as second-class or something similar？ Where has this notion come from？ Have we males made them feel this way？ Has our society made "going to work" outside the home seem more important than what a house wife must face each day？ I would be very curious to see what would happen if a housewife went on strike. Dishes would pile up. Food in the house would run out. No meals would appear on the table. There would be no clean clothes when needed. High boots would be required just to make it through the house scattered with garbage. Walking and bus riding would increase. Those scout troops would have to break up. Charities would suffer. I doubt if the man of the house would be able to take over. Oh, he might start out with the attitude that he can do just as good a job, but how long would that last？ Not long, once he had to come home each night after work to more household duties. There would be no more coming home to a prepared meal; he'd have to fix it himself. The kids would all be screaming for something to eat, clean clothes and more bus fare money. Once he quieted the kids, he'd have to clean the house, go shopping, make sure that kids got a bath, and fix lunches for the next day. Once the kids were down for the night, he might be able to crawl into an unmade bed and, try to read the morning newspaper. No, I don't think many males are going to volunteer for the job. I know I don't want it. So, thanks, mom! I'll do what I can to create a national holiday for housewives. It could be appropriately called Wonder Woman Day.
