Explain your reasons. 2. What do you think about women’s role in society? Give 2 examples. 3. Who is the breadwinner in your family?Reading Text Read the text and do the tasks that follow.A. Throughout most of Western history, women were confined to the domestic sphere, while public life was reserved for men. In medieval Europe, women were denied the right to own property, to study, or to participate in public life. At the end of the 19th century in France, women were still compelled to cover their heads in public, and, in parts of Germany, a husband still had the right to sell his wife.B. Even as late as the early 20th century, women in the United States could neither vote nor hold elective office. Women were prevented from conducting business without a male representative who might be their fathers, brothers, husbands, legal agents, or even sons. Married women could not exercise control over their own children without the permission of their husbands. Moreover, women had little or no access to education and were barred from most professions.C. Women have always had lower status than men, but the extent of the gap between sexes varies across cultures and time. In 1980, the U.N. summed up the burden of this inequality: women comprise half of the world’s population, do two thirds of the World’s work, but earn one tenth of the world’s income, and own one hundredth of the world’s property. Women in the U.S., however, have joined together to create the socalled “Women’s Liberation Movement.” Thanks to the development of effective birth-control methods and of mechanized labor-saving devices for the home, women have more freedom in life. Their role in society has been greatly overlooked in the last few decades. It soon caught on that women should have a bigger role than what was thought they should have.187D. Women have made vast improvements in their lifestyles. They are holding high positions in governments, universities, and businesses. Without women, a man wouldn’t have the comfort of someone by his side through rough and bad times. Regardless, women will always be important to society because they bring a lot of love and emotion to life.a) Work in pairs.
