地道美语听力练习:成为一名家庭主男

Gladys:Hi, Dan. I'm surprised to see you here at the supermarket in the middle of the day.

Dan:Why?

Gladys:I thought you'd be working.

Dan:I am working.

I'm a stay-at-home dad and I take care of the kids while my wife goes to work.

Gladys:Oh, did you get laid off from your job?

Dan:No, my wife works full-time out of the house and I work full-time at home.

Gladys:You mean that your wife is the breadwinner and you're a househusband?

Dan:If you want to put it that way, yes.

I'm the caretaker for the kids during the day and I do the household chores.

Gladys:Oh, your wife must be a feminist.

Dan:No, my wife is just a modern woman with modern sensibilities.

Gladys:Well, I know that some families like to live radical lifestyles these days, changing up gender roles.

Dan:We don't think of it as radical. In fact, it's quite common nowadays.

Gladys:if you say so.

Tell your wife I'd be happy to share my recipes with her when you go back to work and she's a housewife again.

Dan:sigh
