successful. But some women want more for themselves. They want to be successful as men. Today the
best jobs are still given to men. Even when women do the same work, they are often paid less than men.
Some women want these things changed. They want to stand beside the men, with the same chances for
success. Now many American women are earning money outside their homes. More than half of the women
at the age of eighteen to sixty-five have good jobs. In general, working women have more education than
those who stay at home. Among women with jobs, eight out of ten drive a car to work, and most of them
often spend their holidays away from home. They like traveling by air. Women"s work had made several
changes in women"s lives and in men"s lives, too. But things are quite different from those in the Middle East
countries. In the Middle East countries, women have to stay at home. Their duty is to look after their families
and do all the housework. They can"t find work outside. When they go out in public, they cover their faces
with something and walk behind their husbands. For the past few years the women"s life has been changing in
those countries. Many women want to play an active role in the society (社会). Though working gives them

How important are these differences? Certainly, there are some differences between British and American English. There are a few differences in grammar. For example, speakers of British English say "Have you got a pen?" Americans say "Do you have a pen?" Pronunciation is sometimes different.

| The word "sport" first meant something that people did in their free time. Later it often meant hunting wild animals and birds. About a hundred years ago the word was first used for organized games. This is the usual meaning of the word today. People spend a lot of their spare time playing football, basketball, tennis and many other sports. Such people play because they want to. A few people are paid for the sport they play. These people are called "professional sportsmen". They may be sportsmen for only a few years, but during that time the best one can earn a lot of money. For example, a professional footballer in England earns more than $3000 a year. The stars earn a lot more. International golf and tennis champions can make more than $50000 in a year. Of course, only a few sportsmen can earn as much money as that. It is only possible in sports for individuals like golf, tennis and motor-racing. Perhaps the most surprising thing about sportsmen and money is this: The stars can earn more money from advertising than from sport. An advertisement for sports equipment does not simply say "Buy our things". It says "Buy the same shirt and shoes as..." Famous sportsmen can even advertise things like watches and food. They allow the companies to use their name or a photograph of them and they are paid for this. Sport is no longer just something for people"s spare time. |
