Whatever the reaction to the birth of a child,　it is obvious that the shift from the role of husband to that of father is a difficult task. Yet, unfortunately, few attempts have been made to educate fathers in this remobilization process. Although numerous books have been written about American mothers, only recently has literature focused on the role of a father.

　　It is argued by some writers that the transition to the father’s role, although difficult, is not nearly as great as the transition the wife must make to the mother’s role. The mother’s role seems to require complete transformation in daily routine and highly innovative adaptation; on the other hand,　the father’s role is less demanding and immediate. However, even though we mentioned the fact that growing number of women are working outside the home, the father is still thought by many as the breadwinner in the household.

　　1. According to the author, being a father______.　

　　A. brings a feeling of excitement to some men

　　B. has a different meaning for those who have daughters

　　C. makes some men feel proud and others uneasy

　　D. means nothing but more responsibilities

　　2. It is stated in the passage that______.　

　　A. some parents are not prepared to have a child

　　B. young couples do not like children at all

　　C. working couples do not have much time to take care of their children
