21. Women in the Modern World

当今女性

Women are playing an increasingly important role today. In many fields of society, you can easily find lots of outstanding women. With their actions and achievements, they have showed that women can do almost everything as equally well as men. Meanwhile, with the changes of their social role, the position of women in the family has also greatly improved.

现在，女性的作用越来越重要。在许多领域里，人们都会发现很多杰出女性。她们的行为和成就证明了女性在几乎所有领域里都能做得和男性一样好。随着社会角色的变化，女性在家庭里的地位也大大提高了。

Yet, there is still some discrimination against women. Some organizations refuse to have women employees. Even when women are accepted, they often do not enjoy equal pay for equal work. Furthermore, many husbands still consider their wives as their possessions.

然而，对于女性仍然存在着许多歧视，一些组织拒绝接纳女性雇员；即使被接纳，女性也很难享受到同工同酬；还有很多丈夫仍然认为女性是他们的附属。

In my eyes, women should try to get more opportunities to get educated and try to be independent both mentally and financially. They should never stop fighting for equal rights in society.

在我看来，女性应该努力获得更多的受教育机会，努力做到精神上和经济上的独立，她们永远也不应停止在社会上争取平等的努力。
