needed to do more to deal with the sex equality gap (差距).
Former OECD reports have suggested the difference may be more to do with how each sex
chooses to spend its time which was not taken into account (考虑到) in the new report.The OECD
said shopping. having a bath. dressing. taking a nap or taking a long lunch all count as work rather
than leisure.If these are taken into account. British men have only 10 minutes more____________a
day than women.
