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.
