Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer.
One of the most important factors arising from the feminist movement is the recognition that women, should get equal pay for equal work, to see them as contributors and valued members of society. Today, women are protected by the Sex Discrimination Act; however, inequality still persists. It also reveals that the changing role of women in society by means of education as a way to promote themselves to the level of their expertise is not working as effectively as it should.
In most fields of employment women's presence is felt and their voice is heard. Although there has been progress in understanding the value of women's contributions in many employment fields, there are still huge problems to resolve. Persistence of gender inequalities show that the proportion of women in top jobs is minimal compared to the entire women's task force.
Even in the best qualified jobs women suffer the discrimination of being underpaid. So, what is the problem? Nowadays many women are qualified for the career they have trained for, yet it seems that only a small minority finds its way to the top. Are we back to the old theme of women raising children? Time devoted to them and the home does not permit a total devotion to a .top job. The majority of women who are successful, either do not have a family or rely heavily on grandmothers. Other women find part-time more accommodating to their need or choice of life.
36. Thanks to the Sex Discrimination Act, women can get the real equality with men.
a. True b. False c. No information
37. Education has changed women's roles quite effectively.
a. True b. False c. No information
38. Women who have got the best qualified jobs are always paid as much as men are.
a. True b. False c. No information
39. The value of women's contributions in many employment fields has been recognized.
a. True b. False c. No information
40. All women who do full-time work are very successful in their employment.
a. True b. False c. No information
Fill in each numbered blank with one suitable word or phrase.
The ongoing changes in society, politics and economy lead to not only the raise of women's role in society but (41) _____ change the prejudice to treat human beings by sex that had been shaping through decades. From a legal point of (42) _____, a man and a woman are born to be (43) _____. However, in practice, there is no real equality for women's active participation in social life. Housework, chores and raising children are generally considered to (44) _____ to a woman's domain. (45) _____ the fact that birthrates in many countries have been falling, children are obstacles in the labor force. It is understandable that women decide to (46) _____ having children later or do not have children at all. Women comprise 54 percent of contemporary society. However, the number of women taking part in the country's political, economic and civic life shows that women are restricted in the fields of politics and government. Women's salaries are on (47) ____ lower than men's, and women are often victims of violence and unemployment. According to United Nations Gender Organization data, 67 percent of those unemployed are women. Women have less (48) _____ to retraining programs than men, (49) _____ for those who are bearing and rearing children. Women's social status is a serious problem. Few women can be found in positions of social importance. This strengthens the stereotype of "male superiority" and hinders the creation of true partnerships between men and women. So, the main goals are protection of women's rights, (50) _____ of discrimination in society, and widening women's participation at regional and national levels.

Choose the correct answer to each of the questions.
Until the 19th century, the denial of equal rights to women met with only occasional protest and drew little attention from most people. Because most women lacked the educational and economic resources that would enable them to challenge the prevailing social order, women generally accepted their inferior status as their only option. At this time, women shared these disadvantages with the majority of working class men, as many social, economic, and political rights were restricted to the wealthy elite [phần tử ưu tú]. In the 19th century, as governments in Europe and North America began to draft new laws guaranteeing equality among men, significant numbers of women – and some men – began to demand that women be accorded equal rights as well.
At the same time, the Industrial Revolution in Europe and North America further divided the roles of men and women. Before the Industrial Revolution most people worked in farming or crafts-making, both of which took place in or near the home. Men and women usually divided the numerous tasks among themselves and their children. Industrialization led male workers to seek employment outside of the home in factories and other large-scale [extensivve]enterprises. The growing split between home and work reinforced the idea that women’s “rightful place” was in the home, while men belonged in the public world of employment and politics.
Organized efforts by women to achieve greater rights occurred in two major waves. The first wave began around the mid-19th century, when women in the United States and elsewhere campaigned to gain suffrage [ right to vote in political elections]– that is, the right to vote. This wave lasted until the 1920s, when several countries granted women suffrage.
26. Why did the denial of equal rights to women draw little attention from the society until the 19th century?
A. They could not challenge the prevailing social order.
B. They did not have any other option.
C. Most women lacked the educational and economic resources.
D. All are correct.
27. Until the 19th century, what was the status of the working class men in the society?
A. They had the same rights as women.
B. They had no right at all.
C. They did not have much power compared to the wealthy people.
D. They had much power in the society.
28. When did the women’s movement start in Western countries?
A. in the 18th century B. in the late 18th century
C. in the 19th century D. in the early 20th century
29. What did the effect of the Industrial Revolution in Europe and North America bring about?
A. Male workers tried to seek employment outside of the home.
B. It did not bring the equality to women.
C. Well-educated, upper-class men controlled most positions of employment and power in society.
D. All are correct.
30. What was the aim of the women’s movement in the United States in the 1920s?
A. to gain the right to have much power in the society
B. to gain the right to vote
C. to gain the right to go to work in the factory
D. to have the complete equality to men

Swimming is the act of moving through the water by using the arms, legs, and body in motion. It is an integral part of almost all water - based activities. In synchronized swimming, the players perform beautiful maneuvers to music and diving. Water polo, on the other hand, is a game where two opposing teams play against each other, attempting to throw a buoyant ball into the opponent’s goal.
Underwater activities are less varied, the most popular of which are snorkeling and scuba diving. Snorkeling involves swimming face down just below the water surface while breathing through a slender plastic tube called a snorkel, meanwhile scuba divers carry a big tank of
air that allows them to breathe while deep underwater.
Aquatic sports have long been acknowledged as excellent ways to take physical exercise.

VI. Reading comprehension
There is very little documentation about the origins of water polo. It is known, however, that the sport originated in the rivers and lakes of mid-19th century England as an aquatic version of rugby. Early games used an inflated rubber ball that came from India known as a "pulu" (the single Indian word for all "balls"). Pronounced "polo" by the English, both the game and the ball became known as "water polo." To attract more spectators to swimming exhibitions, the London Swimming Association designed a set of water polo rules for indoor swimming pools in 1870. At first, players scored by planting the ball on the end of the pool with both hands. A favorite trick of the players was to place the five-to-nine inch rubber ball inside their swimming suit and dive under the murky water, they would then appear again as close to the goal as possible. The introduction of the rules by Scottish players changed the nature of water polo. It became a game that emphasized swimming, speed and passing. Scottish rules moved from a rugby variant to a soccer style of play. Goals became a cage of 10x 3 feet and a goal could be scored by being thrown. Players could only be tackled when they "held" the ball and the ball could no longer be taken under water. The small rubber ball was replaced by a leather soccer ball. If the player came up too near the goal, he was promptly jumped on by the goalie, who was permitted to stand on the pool deck. Games were often nothing more than gang fights in the water as players ignored the ball, preferring underwater wrestling matches that usually ended with one man floating to the surface unconscious. Water polo was first played in the USA in 1888. The game featured the old rugby style of play which resembled American football in the water. "American style" water polo became very popular and by the late 1890s was played in such venues as Madison Square Garden and Boston's Mechanics Hall, attracting 14,000 spectators to national championship games.
