The law says that women should have the chance of doing the same jobs as men and earn the same as them.
The reality is very different. Women lose because, 25 years after the Equal Pay Act, many of them still get paid less than men.
They lose because they do lower-paid jobs which men just won’t consider. And they lose because they are the ones who interrupt a career to have children.
All this is reported in an independent study ordered by the Government’s Women’s Unite.
The biggest problem isn’t equal pay in workplaces such as factories. It is a sort of work women do.
Make a list of the low-paid jobs, then consider who does them.
Try nurses, secretaries, cleaners, clerks, teachers in primary schools, dinner ladies, and child care helpers. Not a lot of men among that group, are there?
Yet some of those jobs are really important. Surely no one would deny that about nurses and teachers, for a start.
So why do we reward the people who do them so poorly? There can be only one answer—because they are women.
This is not going to be put right overnight. But the Government which employs a lot of them, and other bosses have to make a start.
It is disgraceful(可耻的) that we have gone into the 21st Century but still treat women as second-class citizens.
Which of the following best describes the writer’s idea?
选项
A、Women should get equal pay for equal work to that of men.
B、Women should strengthen (加强) themselves.
C、The Government ought to protect women against getting paid less than men.
D、Some of the jobs that women do are of great importanc
答案
A
解析
A选项说同样的工作女人应该得到和男人同样的薪酬。B选项说女人应该让自己变得更强,文中没有提到。C选项说政府应该保护女人,使得她们不会拿到比男人更少的薪水,文中没有提到对于政府的建议。D选项说有一些女人做的工作非常重要,文中确实是这么说的,但是不能概括作者的主要意图。所以答案选A。
