CULTURE


Read the following text about gender equality in the United Kingdom and
answer the questions.



As a high - income country, the United Kingdom has made a remarkable progress in
gender equality.



First, girls perform better than boys at all levels of education. At university level, there are
more women than men in full - time undergraduate courses. In addition, men and women
equally gain first class degrees.



Second, according to a survey in 2012, women make up 47 per cent of the British
workforce. Only 35 per cent of women aged 16 to 64 are now not working. 



However, the United Kingdom still faces challenges in gender equality. Millions of women
and girls experience domestic violence every year. The gap in full - time wage between
men and women is 10 per cent and most of the people in low - paid jobs are women.
