V Short Answer Questions (共20分,每小题4分)
Directions: Read the following passage carefully and give brief answers to the questions.
Part-time work is sometimes a matter of choice, sometimes a matter of need. Many women with families, especially mothers of small children, choose to work part-time to add to the family income. Some of these women would prefer to work full-time, but they must divide their day’s responsibilities between workplace and home. There are other individuals, men and women, who would prefer to work full-time but cannot find such employment for some reason. During good economic times a significant percentage of the labor force will add to their incomes by taking a second, part-time job. This is usually called moonlighting, because such jobs have traditionally been evening part-time work after a full day at another job. Schoolteachers and police officers are among the types of workers who often moonlight.
