Read the following passage about Gender Discrimination in the Workplace and
mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to
each of the following questions from 23 to 30.
Gender discrimination continues to be a significant issue in many workplaces
worldwide. In many industries, women still face challenges that prevent them from
achieving the same career opportunities as their male counterparts. Studies show that
women earn less than men for doing the same job, and they are less likely to be
promoted to leadership roles. In fact, in countries like the United States, women earn
about 80 cents for every dollar a man makes.
Unfortunately, gender discrimination does not only affect salaries and promotions but
also impacts how women are treated in the workplace. For example, many women
experience “gender bias,” where their skills and ideas are undervalued or overlooked
because of their gender. Women in male-dominated fields, such as engineering and
technology, often struggle to gain the same recognition and opportunities as men,
even when they are equally qualified.
However, there are efforts to reduce gender discrimination. Many companies are
introducing diversity and inclusion programs aimed at creating equal opportunities for
all employees, regardless of gender. Some countries have implemented laws that
require companies to ensure gender equality in hiring, pay, and promotions. These
laws are helping to promote gender equality, although progress has been slow.
Technology also plays an important role in combating gender discrimination.
Social media platforms provide a space for women to share their experiences and
raise awareness about gender inequality. Additionally, apps and websites that offer
career advice and mentorship can help women navigate gender biases in their careers
and create support networks.

Read the following passage about Gender Inequality and mark the letter A, B, C or
D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following
questions from 31 to 40.
[I] Global discussions on gender equality have gained momentum in recent decades,
and one of the primary factors driving this movement is the increased awareness of
inequality. [II] Currently, gender disparities continue to exist in various areas of life,
such as education, employment, and political representation. Predictions suggest that
achieving true gender equality globally may take decades if progress continues at the
current pace. [III] Numerous factors contribute to these disparities, leading to various
societal challenges. [IV]
There are several root causes that perpetuate gender inequality. For instance, women
in many societies still face discrimination in the workplace, earning less than men
for the same job. Additionally, traditional gender roles often limit women's
opportunities in education and leadership. On the other hand, there are also positive
movements working to empower women. Many organizations and governments are
now advocating for equal opportunities in education and the workplace, offering
programs and policies to reduce the gender gap.
Despite these efforts, gender inequality continues to cause widespread consequences
for both individuals and society. First, gender discrimination in employment results in
a lack of financial independence for women, often leading to poverty. Second,
unequal access to education for girls in certain regions of the world denies them the
opportunity to contribute fully to society. These disparities harm not only women but
also hinder the development of entire communities.
Gender equality is a complex issue that requires a deep understanding of both
the causes and the consequences. By focusing on education, equal opportunities, and
strong policies, societies can provide women with the means to live full, independent
lives without being hindered by discriminatory practices.
