【答案与解析】本文讲述的是Bob和妻子Pat签了一份合同，这个夏天照顾孩子和干家务70天。虽然他费尽苦心，结果却不尽人意，不得不公开认错。(from www.nmet168.com)

1. D。推断题。根据第1段最后一句Although he didn’t even know how to make coffee when he signed, he was quite confident.(He thought the experience would make a nice book.)可知虽然他甚至不会做起码的家务，但很自信，认为照顾家庭是很容易的并认为这是他写出一本好书所需要的体验。因此答案为D。

2. D。推断题。根据最后一段Now that Bob has publicly admitted he was wrong, he is routinely(日常地) sharing the child-raising and household tasks with Pat可知Bob已经公开承认错误并和Pat分担照顾孩子和做家务活。由此可推出他们签合同时达成的协议是：如果Bob不能遵循合同，就公开承认错误。故答案为D。

3. A。推断题。根据第1段he didn’t even know how to make coffee和第4段two years ago Pat went back to work as a secretary…She continued to run the household可推知Pat既勤劳又无私。故答案为A。

4. B。判断题。根据第5段Although Peters had consulted(咨询) with his school’s home economics teachers and the head of the cafeteria(食堂), his meals were sometimes a disaster可知Peters为了做好饭已经尽力了。因此可判断正确答案为B。

5. C。推断题。根据第5段最后一句For the last three weeks, the family ate out a lot—sometimes having Macdonald’s hamburgers for lunch and dinner和第6段As for housekeeping...可知Bob无论在抚养孩子还是在管理家务方面都很失败，要解决问题，只有等妈妈回家了。因此答案为C。
