Read the passage carefully and then choose the best answers:

Women in Britain are better off today than they used to be. At the beginning of the
th
19 century, women seem to have almost no rights at all. They could not vote, or even sign
a contract. Their marriages were arranged by their parents. They were once kept at home
and if they were allowed to work, they were never given responsible jobs. It is strange to
think that, as far as we know, 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 same year the Equal Pay Act gave them the right to get equal payment
with men for work of equal value.
Despite these changes, there is no doubt that there are still great differences in status
between men and women. Many employers seem to ignore the Equal Pay Act. It is also
more difficult for a woman to get promotion than a man does.
There is sex distinction in England although it has not been so serious as it was.
More and more women go out to work, earn more money, get high positions in the society,
and live independently. However , there are two great problems to solve. The first problem


is men's attitude. They always think that women are lower in rank and are the weaker sex.
We do not know exactly how long it will take them to change their mind. And the other
problem which is much more difficult is women's attitude. They should be ready to
struggle to change their fate.
