听力原文: How many men do housework? Recently, a European commission tried to find out people's ideas and reactions to the women's movement. As part of their survey, they asked many men and women the ques-tion,'Who does the house work?' The men answered very' differently from the women! The housework they asked people about was: preparing meals, washing dishes, cleaning the house and babysitting. 48% of British husbands said they did these kind of housework, 37% of Danish men helped in the house, 15% of Italian men said they did the housework. 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 complained that their husbands hardly ever help: The Italian and British husbands did net tell the truth! The commission found that Danish men were the most truthful husbands: their answers were the same as their wives. (30)
