This passage was adapted
from an article written in 1990.
Researchdata indicate that there is a great deal of
poverty in the United States among single-Line
parent families headed by women.
(5) This problem could result from the fact that
women’s wages are only 60 percent of men’s.
Some economists believe that rigorous enforcement
of existing equal pay
(10) laws would substantially decrease this wage inequity.
But equal pay laws are ineffectual when women and
men are concentrated in different occupations because such laws
(15) require only that women and men doing the same jobs be paid
the same. Since gender concentration exists (for example, 80 percent
of clerical workers are women), other
(20) economists argue that a comparable worth standard,
which would mandate that women and men in any jobs
that require comparable training and responsibility be paid
(25) the same, should be applied instead. But some policy
analysts assert that, although comparable worth would virtually
equalize male and female wages, many single-
(30) parent families headed by women would remain in poverty
because many men earn wages that are below the poverty line.
These policy analysts believe that the
(35) problem is not caused primarily by wage inequity but rather
by low wages coupled with single parent hood, regardless of sex.
As a solution, they challenge the govern-
(40) ment’s assumption that a family’s income should depend
primarily on wages(Q35)and urge the government to provide
generous wage supplements(child and housing allow-
(45) ances) to single parents whose wages are low.(Q36)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

E. applicable to single-parent families headed by women but not to
single-parent families headed by men
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
GWD-8-Q36:
Which of the following is most clearly an example of the policy advocated
by the policy analysts mentioned in line 26 ?
A. A government provides training to women who wish to move out of
occupations in which women are concentrated.
B. A government supports research that analyzes the connection between
wage inequality and poverty among single-parent families headed by women.
C. A government surveys wages annually to make certain that women and men
in the same jobs receive the same pay.
D. A government analyzes jobs in terms of the education and responsibility
they require and publishes a list of jobs that should be considered equivalent
for wage purposes.
E. A government provides large rent subsidies to single parents whose
wages are less than half the average worker’s wage.
