　　Women in the Modern World

　　Women are playing an increasingly important role in society today. Having repeatedly demonstrated ability in roles traditionally held by men， they are showing just how much they can contribute. No longer can it be said that women's place is only in the home raising children and keeping house. Throughout society， capable women are proving that they are valuable to their communities.

　　With the changes in their social role， women's position is the family has improved as well. As a provider for the family， the wife no longer is obedient to her husband but， instead， exerts an influence on the children and family affairs equal to that of her husband. Moreover， the husband must now assume some of the responsibilities of maintaining a household such as cooking ，cleaning ，and other such jobs around the house.

　　Always have an answer to the question，“What would I do if I lose my job tomorrow？”

　　In spite of these changes， the liberation of women has not been completely realized. It is still difficult for women to get certain jobs like top management positions. Because some fields is dominated by men， many capable women have perhaps chosen alternative careers rather than go through the difficulty of trying to break into certain professions.

　　「评语」

　　此文属于比较高水平的文章，结构紧密，语文优美。首先，在第一段中，用中心句提出了妇女在当今社会里承担了越来越重要的角色，而不再是仅仅在家庭范围里养儿育女；第二段里鲜明地提出了随着妇女地位的改变，她在家庭中的位置也有变化。用“instead”，“moreover”，来表达这种层次。紧接着，用“in spite of”，说明了妇女的解放还很不够，社会应该对此抱有更大的毅力和决心。
