Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
The greatest recent social changes have been in the lives of women During the past decades, there has been a remarkable shortening of the proportion of a woman’s life spent in caring for children A woman marrying at the middle of the 20th century would probably have been in her early twenties, and would be likely to have seven or eight children, several of whom lived till they were only five years old By the time the youngest was fifteen, the mother would have been in her early fifties and would expect to live
a further twenty years, during which customs, opportunities and health made it unusual for her to get paid
work Today women have fewer children Usually a woman’s youngest child will be fifteen when she is forty-five and can be expected to live another thirty-five years, and is likely to take paid work until
retirement at sixty Even while she has the care of children, her world is lightened by household appliances
and convenience foods
This important change in women’s life-pattern has only recently begun to have its full effect on women’s economic position Even a few years ago most girls left school at the first opportunity, and most
of them took a full-time job However, when they got married, they usually left work at once and never returned to it Today the school-leaving age is sixteen, many girls stay at school after that age, and though women tend to marry younger, more married women stay at work at least until shortly before the first child
is born Very many more afterwards return to full- or part-time work Such changes have led to a new relationship in marriage: with the husband accepting a greater share of the duties and satisfactions of family life, and with both husband and wife sharing equally in providing the money, and running the home, according to the abilities and interests of each of them

entirely by poachers who, according to some sources, are not always interested in material gain but in
personal satisfaction This is an example of the callousness that is contributing to the problem of extinction Animals such as the Bengal tiger, as well as other endangered species, are valuable parts of the world's ecosystem International laws protecting these animals must be enacted to ensure their survival - and the survival of our planet
Countries around the world have begun to deal with the problem in various ways Some countries, in
an effort to circumvent the problem, have allocated large amounts of land to animal reserves They then
charge admission prices to help defray the costs of maintaining the parks, and they often must also depend
on world organizations for support This money enables them to invest in equipment and patrols to protect the animals Another response to the increase in animal extinction is an international boycott of products made from endangered species This has' had some effect, but by itself it will not prevent animals from being hunted and killed
Question 39. What is the main topic of the passage?
C Problems with industrialization D Endangered species
Question 40. According to the passage, Bengal tigers
C have increased in popularity D are an endangered species
