问题     The fight for women’s rights is central to the UN’s global mission. Fifteen years ago, in Beijing, governments committed themselves to equality, development and peace for all women in all countries. The Beijing Declaration was a landmark on the road to women’s empowerment. It has guided policy making. It has inspired women and girls to strive for equality and opportunity and reminded everyone that this is their right.
    We have seen progress. Girls are now more likely to receive an education. Women are now more likely to run business or participate in government. But much work remains. Death in Children is still too common. Too few women have access to family planning. Violence against women remains a cause of global shame. I just appointed a special representative to mobilize international action to address these crimes. At the United States itself, we have more women in senior posts than at any time in history.

选项

答案 为妇女争取权利的斗争是联合国全球使命的重要组成部分。15年前,在北京,各国政府承诺为世界各地所有妇女争取平等权、发展与和平。在妇女赋权的进程中,《北京宣言》是一座里程碑。它不仅引导了政策的制定,还鼓舞了妇女和女童争取平等和机会,提醒所有人,这是她们的权利。 我们已经取得了进展。如今,女孩更有可能接受教育,妇女更有可能经营生意或担任公职。尽管如此,我们仍有大量工作要做。女性因分娩死亡仍是常见的现象;可获得计划生育服务的妇女寥寥无几;暴力侵害妇女的行为仍令全世界蒙羞。我刚刚任命了一位特别代表,负责动员国际社会打击这些犯罪行为。

解析     本文选自2010年3月8日联合国秘书长发表的国际妇女节电视致辞,属于演讲文的范畴。选段介绍了近年来妇女赋权运动所取得的一些成效,以及依然存在的问题。
