The ancient Egyptians firmly believed in the afterlife and spent their time on earth
preparing for it. Elaborate burial rituals included preparing the burial site, providing for all of the
deceased's material needs (food, clothing, jewels and tools for their trade), and preserving the
corpse so that it would not decay. This preservation was accomplished through a process of
mummification. The ancients left no written accounts as the execution of this process, so scientists
have had to examine mummies and establish their own theories. The embalming process might
have taken up to seven days for the pharaohs and nobility and only a few days for the poor.
The embalmers spread a variety of compounds of salt, spices and resins in allover the
corpse to preserve it. They followed this with a prescribed wrapping, a procedure in which the
wound strips of fine linen around, over and under the body while placing various amulets within
the wrappings to protect the deceased from harm in the long journey to the afterlife. They also
painted resins over the wrapped linen. Finally, a pharaoh or noble would have been encased in a
wooden box before being placed in a sarcophagus.

It has been thought that women are the second class in citizen, and men are the first. There
is not a real equality of opportunity for men and women. Years ago, people were living in a mandominated society. Women had to obey their husbands and fathers absolutely. Women's place was
in the kitchen and women's work was housework. In many places, women were not even' allowed
to go to school. Women had no rights, even the right to choose husband for themselves. Men
usually occupied high positions in society so they thought they were more intelligent than women.
Men often considered women as their property. Sometimes, they were mistreated by their
husbands and suffered the problem as a fate. Many parents did not even want to daughters.
Despite the progress, there remain outdated beliefs about women's roles, traditionally
passed down from generation to generation. Men are commonly seen as the strong bodies, breadwinners in the family and key leaders in society, while women are restricted to being housewives
and child bearing and care, and housework such as washing and cooking.
According to social surveys, many women in the 21st century still have to work over 12
hours a day including working in offices and doing countless household chores without any help
from their husbands. In some regions, the labor of women is not recognized despite the hardships
they endure to support the whole family. Moreover, women are the direct victims of family
violence, especially in rural areas.
Thanks to the women's liberation movement, nowadays women have proved that they are
equal to men in every aspect. An average woman has weaker muscles than an average man but she

may be as intelligent as he is. Women can do everything that men can, and women can do one
thing that no man can: they produce children.
Question 46: Which is not women's role in the former days?

B. Doing housework
C. Working in authority
