Careers for Women
It is only seventy years since British women got the right to vote.Some people think this is the main reason why women are so under-represented in politics,trade unions and big businesses.Others feel it is simply because that they are much too busy doing other things.The old saying"a woman's place is in the home"may seem out of date to most people,but the old,fixed image of a woman as a supporting wife and caring mother is certainly still usual一one only has to watch a few television ads.
In 1975 the law did not allow women to be paid less than men doing the same work.Certainly it is usually the case nowadays that women doing the same jobs as men get the same money for doing it. But generally women do not do the same jobs:they do different ones that offer lower salaries.
In the United States,there are two million women entering the workforce every year. The new workers include all ages and backgrounds:teenagers,college students,young housewives,and older women who have lost their husbands.Altogether,more than half of the eighty-four million women in
the United States are now employed or seeking employment.Most of them are still holding tightly to the womanly jobs such as nursing,teaching,catering and office work jobs that can be seen as an extension of the mothering role.
Although the areas women work in are almost all those of"service",a growing number of pioneers are venturing into other fields. They run business;they manage farms;they become astronauts, carpenters,lawyers,truck or taxi-drivers,coal miners,or politicians.They join the army or the navy.So far no woman has become president of the country;but that might happen,as indeed it has happened in other countries.
Apart from looking after people during the day at work,women often have to take care of a family at home too,which may mean they have less energy to compete in the race for professional development. In almost every field,top positions are more likely to be filled by men. While most teachers are women,for example,most head masters are not.School cooks are women,head cooks are men and even cleaners tend to be watched over and directed by male caretakers.
选项
Women are naturally less competitive than men in work since they are not as energetic as men.
A:Right
B:Wrong
C:Not mentioned
答案
B
解析
文章第一段就指出“It is only seventy years since British women got the rightto vote",七十年前英国妇女才获得了选举权,因此选B
文章并没有提到几十年前妇女是否因为太忙没有时间参加社会事务,所以选C。
该判断正确。文中第二段提到“Certainly it is usually the case nowadaysthat women doing the same jobs as men get the same money for doing it.”即通常和男人做同样工作的女人拿到的钱和男人一样多。
第三段最后一句说到很多妇女做的工作“can be seen as an extension of themothering role",这些工作都可以被看作是看顾、照料型角色的扩展,mothering意思是“像母亲般照顾人的”而非“母亲”的意思,所以选B。
文章并没有提到美国是否在短期内就会产生一名女性总统,只是说“Sofar no woman has become president of the country; but that might happen",即有可能产生女总统,所以选C。
文章最后一段表明一个事实,即女性在工作和家庭中都需要做照顾性的工作,而这也许意味着“they have less energy to compete in the race for professional development", 而不是在工作上天生不如男性精力旺盛,所以选B
文章最后一段倒数第二句提到“While most teachers are women ...most head masters are not",即虽然大多数教师是女性,但学校的校长却不是女性。所以A正确。
