UNIT 15 WOMEN IN SOCIETY
Read the passage below and choose one correct answer for each question
In developing countries, where three fourths of the world’s population live,
sixty percent of the people who can’t read and write are women. Being illiterate
doesn’t mean they are not intelligent. It does mean it is difficult for them to
change their lives. They produce more than haft of the food. In Africa eighty
percent of all agricultural work is done by women. There are many programs to
help poor countries develop their agriculture. However, for years, these
programs provided money and training for men. In parts of Africa, this is a
typical day for a village woman. At 4:45 a.m, she gets up, washes and eats. It
takes her a haft hour to walk to the fields, and she works there until 3:00p.m.
She collects firewood and gets home at 4:00. She spends the next hour and a
haft preparing food to cook. Then she collects water for another hour. From
6:30 to 8:30 she cook. After dinner, she spends an hour washing the dishes and
her children. She goes to bed at 9:30 p.m.
International organizations and programs run by developed nations are starting
to help women, as well as men, improve their agricultural production.
