How do women feel about it?6. Is it possible for a woman to be successful in her career and take good care of her family at the same time?Demo:4. What were the traditional roles of women? Do you think they were unfair to women?The traditional roles of women vary according to their culture and religion. In the traditional Chinese society, women were oppressed and disrespected. The traditional role of women in China centered around the home, where they were expected to serve their families. Men dominated the Chinese society while women were subordinate to their fathers, husbands, brothers and sons. Arranged marriages left women with virtually no voice in the society. Chinese women did not have rights or privileges. So their roles were certainly unfair.In the West and in many parts of the world, traditionally when a couple got married, the man was considered to be the head of the family, and his wife was expected to defer to him. Generally, the wife would be expected to be in charge of the household, to provide food, and to raise and carefor the children. In a Jewish society, women of all classes were generally expected to be the family doctors, since professional doctors were often not available. Women would be expected to have a good knowledge of first aid and medicine, be able to make their own home remedies, treat wounds, etc.Additional Question for DiscussionDo you think that women in China have ample opportunities to develop their potential? Why or why not?Demo:Some do, some don’t. First, opportunities are a limited resource in most places. Compared to the number of people who want them, there are simply not enough of them. Second, there’s the traditional or popular concept about women’s role. They are the weaker sex and their status is comparatively lower than men at home. Third, physically and psychologically speaking, women are faced with some special challenges, like giving birth to children. So, only those women who are well prepared, highly motivated, hard-working, and have a bit of good luck will get an opportunity to fully develop their potential.III.Part B: Listening & Speaking Tasks1.Listening Task – TextsText1 Women in BusinessTeaching Steps:1)Introduce some background information about the unit.2)Play the tape of Text 1 once and ask the students to do Exercise 1.

They now enjoy the right to vote and have the same educational opportunities as men do in most countries. But this is the result of a long and hard struggle. In France, for example, women did not even have the right to open their own mail until 1923 and did not have the right to vote until 1944. And until 1965, no married woman was allowed to open her own bank account without her husband’s written consent.And even today women are still discriminated against in various ways. In many countries, women do not get equal pay for equal work. In France, women’s salary is about 75% that of men and in Britain, the situation is similar with women still earning only 79% of men’s full-time hourly pay. As regards work types, most women are in clerical and secretarial jobs, which are undervalued and underpaid. And there are far fewer women than men in top positions in various spheres of life. In our own country, when university graduates apply for an opening in a company, boys are usually preferred. To win equal treatment for women, there is still much to do.Language and Culture Notes2.they stuck to age-old traditions that she couldn’t follow — long lunches and late-night meetingsthey strictly observed those very old traditions without considering that she was now a mother and had a baby to take care of; they talked about business during long lunches and spent extra hours after work having meetings, so she could find little time to be with her baby3.
