I suppose an argument could have been made that when I began staying home my wife was the better parent: She I-Dad spent more time with Ry, could read him better and calm him more quickly. And given a choice, hed have picked her over me. But as she was the more employable one, my wife went out to work and I looked after our son.

　　Because of the increased time I spent with him， I soon knew Ry well， understood what he needed and could look after him more or less as well as my wife could. Actually， the experience helped me unlock one of the worlds great secrets： Women are good at looking after children because they do it. Its not because of any innate (先天的) female aptitude (天资) or a mothers instinct. Its because they put in the time and attention required to become good at the job.

　　Women obviously get a biological head start from giving birth and nursing, but over the long term experience is more important. When I got the experience myself, I was good, too. As good? I dont know. Who cares? Children are not made of glass. Other people are capable of looking after them besides Morn.

　　36 Which of the following does the first paragraph imply?

　　A Men like staying at home.

　　B The author works at a TV station.

　　C In more and more families the wife is earning more than the husband

　　D The husband is the better parent.
