Questions 31 – 35: Read the following passage and then choose the best answer to the questions bycircling the letter A, B, C or D:
Women in Britain are without doubt better off today than they used to be At the beginning ofthe 19th century, women seemed to have almost no rights at all They could not vote , or even sign acontract Their marriages were arranged by their parents They were once kept at home and if theywere allowed to work, they were never given responsible jobs It is strange to think that, as far as weknow, most women were happy with that situation
Today the position is quite different Women now can vote and choose their own husbands In
1970, a law was passed to give them an equal share of property in the case of divorce, and in the sameyear the Equal Pay Act gave them the right to get equal payment with them for work of equal value Yet , despite these changes, there is no doubt that there are still great differences in statusbetween men and women Many employers-maybe even in the majority-seem to ignore the Equal PayAct It is also more difficult for a woman to get a promotion than a man does
There is sex discrimination in England although it has not been so serious as it was More andmore women got out to work, earn more money, get high positions in the society, and liveindependently However there are two great problems to solve The first problem is men’s attitude.They always think that women are inferior and are the weaker sex We do not know exactly how long
