1.GWD-8-Q35 -Q37单亲家庭生活穷困与妇女收入较低问题的讨论 This passage was adapted from an article written in 1990.
Research data indicate that调查数据显示在美国,由妇女持家的单亲
there is a great deal of poverty in家庭存在着大量贫困现象。
the United States among single-
Line parent families headed by women.

the fact that women’s wages are60%。一些经济学家相信有力执行现有的
only 60 percent of men’s. Some平等报酬法律将切实践减少工资不平等。
economists believe that rigorous
enforcement of existing equal pay
(10)laws would substantially decrease
this wage inequity. But equal pay但是当男女专注于不同职业时,平等报
laws are ineffectual when women酬法律是无效的,因为那些律例仅要求

occupations because such laws
(15)require only that women and men
doing the same jobs be paid the
same. Since gender concentration因存在性别集中(如80%文书是妇女),
exists (for example, 80 percent of其他经济学家认为应执行一个可比的
clerical workers are women), other价值标准,即要求无论男女做什么工

any jobs that require comparable

(30)parent families headed by women
would remain in poverty because
many men earn wages that are
