Oliver，according to a report from Oxford University.The effect of the celebrity role models，who have given cooking a more manly picture，has combined with a more general drive towards sexual equality and men now spend more than twice the amount of time preparing meals than they did in 1961.According to the research by Prof.Jonatahn Gershuny，who runs the Centre for Time Research at Oxford，men now spend more than half an hour a day cooking，up from just 12 minutes a day in 1961.Prof.Gershuny said，“The man in the kitchen is part of a much wider social trend.There has been 40 years of sexual equality，but there is another 40 years probably to come.”Women，who a generation ago spent nearly two hours a day cooking，now spend just one hour and seven minutesa great fall，but they still spend far more time in the kitchen than men.Some experts have named these men in aprons as “Gastrosexuals (men using cooking skills to impress friends)”，who have been inspired to pick up a kitchen knife by the success of Ramsay，Oliver as well as other male celebrity chefs such as Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall，Marco Pierre White and Keith Floyd.“I was married in 1974.When my father came to visit me a few weeks later，I was wearing an apron when I opened the door.He laughed，” said Prof.Gershuny.“That would never happen now.”Two-thirds of adults say that they come together to share at least three times a week，even if it is not necessarily around a kitchen or dining room table.Prof.Gershuny pointed out that the family meal was now rarely eaten by all of its members around a tablewith many “family meals” in fact taken on the sofa in the sitting room，and shared by family members.“The family meal has changed a lot，and few of us eatas I did when I was a childat least two meals a day together as a family.But it has survived in a different format.”语篇解读牛津大学的一篇报道说，男性下厨的时间比以前多了。一方面的原因是男性名人厨师的影响，另一方面更多的是男女平等观念的影响。4What is one reason behind the trend that men spend more time cooking than before?AThe development of sexual equality campaign.BThe influence of popular female chefs.CThe change of females view on cooking.DThe improvement of cooks status.答案A解析细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The effect of the celebrity role models，who have given cooking a more manly picture，has combined with a more general drive towards sexual equality.”可知，男性名人在电视上展示厨艺和受到性别平等的心理驱使，导致男性在做饭上花得时间更多了。故选A。5What does the author think about the time men and women spend on cooking?AMen spend more time cooking than women nowadays.BIt will take 40 years before men spend more time at the stove than women.CWomen spend much less time on

to the passage?AIt has become a thing of the past.BIt is very different from what it used to be.CIt shouldnt be advocated in modern times.DIt is beneficial to the stability of the
