Read the passage and choose the
right anwser.
The
issue of equality for women in British society first attracted national
attention in the early 20thcentury, when the suffragettes won for
women the right to vote. In the 1960s feminism became the subject of intense
debate when the women’s liberation movement encouraged women to reject their
traditional supporting role and to demand equal status and equal rights with
men in areas such as employment and pay.
Since
then, the gender gap between the sexes has been
reduced. The Equal Pay Act of 1970, for instance, made it illegal for women to
be paid less than men for doing the same work, and in 1975 the Sex
Discrimination Act aimed to prevent either sex having an unfair advantage when
applying for jobs. In the same year, the Equal Opportunities Commission was set
up to help people claim their rights to equal treatment and to publish research
and statistics to show where improvements in opportunities for women need to be
made. Women now have much better employment opportunities, though they still
tend to get less well-paid jobs than men, and very few are appointed to top
jobs in industry.
In the
US the movement that is often called the “first wave of feminism” began in the
mid 1800s. Susan B. Anthony worked for the right to vote, Margaret Sanger
wanted to provide women with the means of contraception so that they could
decide whether or not to have children, and Elizabeth Blackwell, who had to
fight for the chance to become a doctor, wanted women to have greater
opportunities to study. Many feminists were interested in other social issues.
The
second wave of feminism began in the 1960s. Women like Betty Friedan and Gloria
Steinem became associated with the fight to get equal rights and opportunities
for women under the law. An important issue was the Equal Rights Amendment
(ERA), which was intended to change the Constitution. Although the ERA was not
passed, there was progress in other areas. It became illegal for employers,
schools, clubs, etc. to discriminate against women. But women still find it
hard to advance beyond a certain point in their careers, the so-called glass ceiling that
prevents them from having high-level jobs. Many women also face the problem of
the second shift, i.e. the household chores.
In the
1980s, feminism became less popular in the US and there was less interest in
solving the remaining problems, such as the fact that most women still earn
much less than men. Although there is still discrimination, the principle that
it should not exist is widely accepted.
Câu 1: It can be inferred from paragraph 1 that in the 19th century,
______.
A. British women did not have the right

equal pay.

supporting role.

gap” in paragraph 2 refers to ______.

Read the passage and indicate
the correct answer to each of the questions
How do television and other visual media affect the
lives of individuals and families all over the world? The media can be very
helpful to people who carefully choose the movies and shows that they watch.
With high quality programs in various fields of study, such as science,
medicine, history, arts, and so on, TV and video tapes increase the viewers
knowledge, they can also improve thinking ability. Moreover, TV benefits
elderly people who cannot go out often, as well as patients in hospital.
Additionally, it offers language learners the advantage of
"real-life" audiovisual instruction and aural comprehension practice
at any time of day or night. Television and video can also provide almost
everyone with good entertainment – a pleasant way to relax and spend free time
at home.
Nevertheless, there are several serious disadvantages
to the visual media. First of all, some people watch the "tube" for more hours a day than
they do anything else. Instead of spending time taking care of their kids, many
parents use TV as an "electronic baby-sitter". As a result, TV and
video can easily replace family communication, physical activities and other
interests. Secondly, those who, young and old, spend more time watching TV than
manual work can easily suffer from near-sightedness and obesity.
The third negative feature of the media is the amount
of violence and horror on the screen that have bad effect on children and
teenagers. Finally, the most negative effect of TV and video might be
addiction. People often feel a strange and powerful need to watch TV or play a
video tape even when they do not enjoy it or have free time for entertainment.
Câu 1. What is the main idea of the paragraph?
A. Children should
not be allowed to watch, TV.
B. Television and
other visual media have both advantages and disadvantages.
C. TV is a good
baby-sitter. D. All are correct.
Câu 2. To many elderly people and patients in hospitals, TV
________.
A. is an ideal tool
of entertainment B. must be banned
C. has bad effects
on their health D. is not enjoyable
