一、阅读理解（共1道小题，共50.0分） (错误) My husband and I got married in 1981 and for the first ten years of our marriage I was very happy to stay home and raise our three children. Then four years ago, our youngest child went to school and I thought I might go back to work. My husband was very supportive and helped me to make my decision. He emphasized all of the things I had to do around the house. However, he also said he thought I could be very successful in business.

Because of our joint incomes, my husband and I can do many things we have always dreamed of doing, but we dont do these things because he is very unhappy. We fight about little things and my husband is very critical of me in front of our friends. For the first time in our marriage, I think it is possible that our marriage may come to an end. I love my husband very much, and I dont want him to feel inferior, but I also love my job. I think I can be a good wife and a working woman, but I dont know how. Who can give me some advice?
