Women are on their way to holding more than half of all American jobs. The latest government report shows that their share of nonfarm jobs reached nearly 50% in September. Not only have more and more women entered the labor market over the years, but the recession has been harder on men. In October, the unemployment rate for men was almost 11% compared to 8% for women. Industries that traditionally use lots of men have suffered deep cuts. For example, manufacturing and building lost more jobs last month. But health care and temporary employment services have job growth. Both of those industries employ high percentages of women. Thirty years ago, women earned 62 cents for every dollar that men earned. Now, for those who usually work full time, women earn about 80% of what men earn. And women hold 51% of good-paying management and professional jobs. Yet a study released Thursday said men still hold about nine out of every ten top positions at the 400
A. More and more women faced unemployment.

At the beginning of the 20th century, the railroads were used to transport everything. Powerful railroad companies made fortunes without having to be accountable to the public or considerate of customers. But cars and trucks changed all of that. And by 1970, the rail industry was beset with problems. Trucks were taking all the new business. And even so, the rail industry remained indifferent to customers. Also, many regulations kept the rail industry from adjusting to shifting markets. But in 1980, the rail industry entered the modem era when a deregulation bill was passed that allowed railroad companies to make quick adjustments to fees and practices. Companies reduced their lines by 1/3 and used fewer employees. They also took steps to minimize damage to products and to increase their shipping capacity by stacking freight containers on railroad cars. To accommodate these taller loads, under passes and tunnels were "enlarged.
A. The use of oversized freight containers.
B. Safety problems with railroad tracks.
C. The growth of the automotive industry.
D. The high cost of meeting environmental regulations.

Beethoven is recognized as one of the greatest composers in the world.
Born in Bonn in 1770, Beethoven showed great talent at an early age. In 1787, he visited Vienna for the first time, which was the center of the musical world at that time. There he performed before Mozart, who was amazed at his talent.
By 1817, he became totally deaf. His public performances stopped, but he continued his creative work. His finest works were composed after he had lost the ability to enjoy them.
Beethoven’s life ended sadly. After suffering from an illness for a long time, he died on March 26,1827.
