原文
Which is more important to our lives, the Internet or the washing machine? Many of us might answer, "The Internet !" The Internet helps us gather information. It allows us to see our friends in real time.
However, Ha-joo-chang, a professor at Cambridge University, doesn't a ( 71 ). He believes the washing
machine has changed the world more than the Internet. That sounds strange, but Chang is not a ( 72 ) . Manyexperts have called the washing machine the greatest invention of the 20th century. Why?
Let's be h ( 73 ) : How many of us love to do the laundry (洗衣機)? It seems the cycle of washing, drying and ironing never ends. It’s so tiring and boring.
However, before the washing machine was invented, women often had to spend lots of time washing clothes. Many of them suffered from back p ( 74 ) .
The washing machine freed from the laundry. Many women found they had enough time to enter the labor market. As a result, the social status of women began to change. Today, most women can make an i ( 75 ) living. They don't have to rely on men any longer.
To better understand the influence of washing machines, we can look at societies w ( 76 ) them. In many African countries, doing the laundry takes women six hours a day, Women there h ( 77 ) have time to work or start a business. It is difficult for them to find a way out of poverty. Perhaps things will be a lot different if they have washing machines.
We often take the washing machine for granted. But these machines do play an important role in our lives. They have greatly changed the world.
文章大意
1許多人可能認為網際網路對生活的影響更大,但劍橋大學教授Ha-joo-chang提出了不同看法,他認為洗衣機對世界的影響更為深遠,這一觀點得到了許多專家的支援。
2在洗衣機發明之前,女性需要花費大量時間進行洗衣勞動,這導致她們常患背痛等身體問題。洗衣機的出現解放了女性,使她們有更多的時間參與其他活動,如進入勞動力市場,從而改變了女性的社會地位。
3洗衣機在全球範圍內都扮演著重要的角色,特別是在一些發展中國家,如非洲國家,女性因需要花費大量時間洗衣而無法工作或創業。洗衣機的普及可能會為這些女性提供更多的機會,幫助她們擺脫貧困。因此,洗衣機不僅在我們的日常生活中扮演著重要角色,還對社會的發展和進步產生了深遠的影響
