Dear Doctor，

　　My husband and I got married in 1995 and for the first ten years of our marriage I was very happy to stay home and raise our three children．Then four years ago，our youngest child went to school and I thought I might go back to work．

　　My husband was very supportive and helped me to make my decision．He emphasized all of the things l can do around the house，and said he thought I could be a great success in business．

　　After several weeks of job-hunting，l found my present job，which is working for a small public relations firm．At first，my husband was very proud of me and would tell his friends，“My clever little wife can run that company she's working for．”

　　But as his joking remark was close to reality，my husband stopped talking to me about my job．I have received several promotions and pay increases，and I am now making more money than he is．I can buy my own clothes and a new car．Because of our combined incomes，my husband and I can do many things that we had always dreamed of doing，but we don't do these things because he is very unhappy．

　　We fight about little things and my husband is very critical of me in front of our friends．For the first time in our marriage，l think there is a possibility that our marriage may come to an end．

　　I hove my husband very much，and I do not want him to feel inferior，but I also love my job．I think I can be a good wife and a working woman，but I don't know how．Can you give me some advice？Will I have to choose one or the other or can I keep both my husband and my new career？

　　Please help．

A young woman was driving through the lonely countryside. It was dark and raining. Suddenly she saw an old woman by the side of the road, holding her hand out as if she wanted a lift.  “I can't leave her out in this weather.” the woman said to herself, so she stopped the car and opened the door. “Do you want a lift?” she asked. The old woman nodded and climbed into the car. After a while, she said to the old woman, “Have you been waiting for a long time?” The old woman shook her head, “Strange.” thought the young woman.  She tried again, “Bad weather for the time of year,” she said. The old woman nodded. No matter what the young woman said, the hitchhiker(搭车者) gave no answer except for a nod of the head or a shrug.
Then the young woman noticed the hitchhiker's hands, which were large and hairy. Suddenly she realized that the hitchhiker was actually a man! She stopped the car. “I can't see out of the rear screen,” she said, “Would you mind clearing it for me?”
