Tourists were surprised to see a woman driving a huge orange tractor down one of Rome’s main avenues. Italy’s political leaders and some of its male union chiefs are said to have been even more puzzled to see that the tractor was followed by about 200,000 women in a parading procession that took more than three hours to
snake through central Rome.
Shouting slogans, waving flags and dancing to drumbeats, the women had come to the capital from all over Italy to demonstrate for "a job for each of us, a different type of job, and a society without violence." So far, action to improve women’s opportunities in employment has been the province of collective industrial bargaining. "But there is a growing awareness that this is not enough," says a researcher on female labor at the government-funded Institute for the Development of Professional Training for works.
Women, who constitute 52 percent of Italy’s population, today represent only 35 percent of Italy’s total workforce and 33 percent of the total number of Italian with jobs. However, their presence in the workplace is growing. The employment of women is expanding considerably in services, next to the public administration and commerce as their principal workplace. Official statistics also show that women have also made significant strides in self-employment. More and more women are going into business for themselves. Many young women are turning to business because of growing overall in employment. It is also a fact that today many prejudices have disappeared, so that banks and other financial institutes make judgments on purely business considerations without caring if it is a man or woman.
Such changes are occurring in the professions too. The number of women doctors, dentists, lawyers , engineers and university professors increased two to three fold. Some of the changes are immediately visible. For example, women have appeared on the scene for the first time as state police, railway workers and street cleaners.
However, the present situation is far from satisfactory though some progress has been made. A breakthrough in equal opportunities for women is now demanded.
Which of the following is true according to the first sentence of Paragraph 3 ?
选项
A、There are more men than women in Italy.
B、Men represent only 35 percent of Italy’s total workforce.
C、Two-thirds of the jobs are held by men in Italy.
D、Women in Italy do not want to work.
答案
C
解析
选项C对应这一句话中的33%这个数据,女性只占到有工作的人数的33%,也就是三分之一,那么“三分之二的工作就被男性所拥有的”。选项A和这一句中的52%这个数字不符,根据文章内容,女性占到总人数的52%,意思是女性比男性人数多。选项B偷换概念,文章中35%这个数字说明的对象是女性,而不是男性。选项D无中生有。
