Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer.
It has been thought that women are the second class in citizen,
and men are the first. There is not a real equality of opportunity for
men and women. Years ago, people were living in a man-dominated
society. Women had to obey their husbands and fathers absolutely.
Women's place was in the kitchen and women's work was
housework. In many places, women were not even' al owed to go to
school. Women had no rights, even the right to choose husband for
themselves. Men usually occupied high positions in society so they
thought they were more intelligent than women. Men often
considered women as their property. Sometimes, they were
mistreated by their husbands and suffered the problem as a fate.
Many parents did not even want to daughters.
Despite the progress, there remain outdated beliefs about
women's roles, traditionally passed down from generation to
generation. Men are commonly seen as the strong bodies, bread-
winners in the family and key leaders in society, while women are
restricted to being housewives and child bearing and care, and
housework such as washing and cooking.
According to social surveys, many women in the st century stil
have to work over hours a day including working in offices and doing
countless household chores without any help from their husbands. In
some regions, the labor of women is not recognized despite the
hardships they endure to support the whole family. Moreover, women
are the direct victims of family violence, especially in rural areas.
Thanks to the women's liberation movement, nowadays women
have proved that they are equal to men in every aspect. An average
woman has weaker muscles than an average man but she may be as
intelligent as he is. Women can do everything that men can, and
women can do one thing that no man can: they produce children. 36.
