The correct answer is a.
This revision demonstrates a judgmental tone toward women because it implies that women are inherently less committed to their careers than men, as evidenced by the statement that women "usually choose their children over their jobs." This framing suggests a negative view of women's priorities in the workplace, contrasting it with a more admirable portrayal of men’s commitment to work.
