应该为妇女提供更多更高水平工作的机会
More Chances Should Be Offered to Women to Do Some High-level Jobs
Nowadays, with the rapid development of our society and economy, there have emerged many working opportunities. But there exists a problem that high-level jobs are mostly occupied by men even though some women are also competent. That disagrees with the equality of men and women.
When we talk about this phenomenon, first we must admit that there exist some differences between men and women. Then we should know that neither side could be regarded better or worse. For example, if you say men are often cairn and objective, but don＇t you see some men are more careless than women? Besides, if you think women are always hesitant and sensitive, then what would you say when they behave thoughtfully in work? Therefore there are not absolute advantages for men when considering their gender.
In another way, if you＇re a leader, what will be your criteria of selecting a candidate? Would you rather choose a guy just for he is a male and ignore another more competent lady? So whether or not a person has the ability for the job should be the first thing to consider.
However, this kind of prejudice has been existing for a long time. No matter men or women have been affected more or less, this idea has even made some women lose confidence in themselves. Therefore our whole society and especially our government should take efficient measure to encourage acertain percentage of jobs especially high level jobs to be reserved for women.
Through this way, we would hopefully see that more and more outstanding women can be working in their favourite jobs and can get their desirable position. And just by that our working field can be called a kind of equality of men and women.
[点评]
男女平等是人们讨论了已久的话题。本文作者的观点非常明确：应凭能力而选择合适的人来做某些工作，尤其是高水平的工作，而不应凭性别来定，以做到男女平等。议论客观、全面，只是篇幅过长。

应该为妇女提供更多更高水平工作的机会
如今，随着社会和经济的发展，出现了许多就业机会。但其中却存在一个问题，那就是虽然有些女性能力也很好，但男性占据了绝大多数的高级职位。这是有背于男女平等的。
当我们谈论这种现象时，首先我们必须承认男女之间确实存在某些差异，但我们应当明确男女双方并没有优劣之分。例如，如果你认为男性总是镇定而客观的，那你不觉得有些男人比女人还粗心大意吗?此外，如果你认为女性总是犹豫而敏感的，那么当她们在工作中表现出大胆创新时你会说什么呢?因此，当考虑性别时，男人并没有绝对的优势。
从另一角度看，如果你是一位领导，你选择竞聘者的尺度是什么?愿选择一位男性就仅仅因为他是男人而各忽略另一位更有能力的女上吗?因此，这个人是否能胜任工作才是首要的条件。
然而这种偏见长期存在。无论男女都或多或少地受其影响，这种偏见甚至还会使有些女性对自己丧失信心。因此，我们的整个社会，尤其是我们的政府应该采取有效措施来鼓励妇女占据一定比例的工作，特别是高级职位的工作。通过这种方式，我们将有希望看到越来越多的优秀女性能够从事她们喜爱的工作，能得到她们期望的职位。只有这样，我们的各项工作才能称做是男女平等的。
