The place looked very different. There were lots of traffic signs beside the roads. There was a new car park, a new post office, a new He remembered suddenly that the bus used to stop anywhere: you just put up your hand and it stopped. One surprise followed another. But Roys biggest surprise was the people. He didnt recognize(认识) anybody at all. He thought perhaps everyone here seemed old. He went into the post office and bought some stamps. “Where are all the children and young people?” he asked the postmaster. The old fellow looked up and answered, “Children? Theyre in school, of course.” At lunch Pat said, “The town looks nice, doesnt it?” “Its all different, Pat. It used to be an exciting place, but now its full of old people.

Roys hometown has changed a lot since he left 30 years ago D. Roy didnt recognize anybody because he had been away for 30 years D Having a husband means an extra seven hours of housework each week for women, according to a new study. For men, getting married saves an hour of housework a week. “Its a well-known pattern(模式), ” said lead researcher Frank Stafford at University of Michigans Institute for Social Research. “Men usually work more outside the home, while women do more of the housework.” He points out that there are differences among families. But in general, marriage means more housework for women and less for men. “And the situation gets worse for women when they have children,” Stafford said. Overall, times are changing in the American home. In 1976, women busied themselves with 26 weekly hours of sweeping-and-dusting work, compared with 17 hours in 2005. Men are doing more housework, more than doubling their housework hours from six in 1976 to 13 in 2005. Single(
