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.
Most weddings in Japan start with a religious ceremony in which usually only family members attend
Afterwards, a banquet is customarily held to which many people, including friends and colleagues, are invited To
celebrate the happy occasion, guests give the bride and groom goshuugi – gift money in special envelopes Goshuugi
from friends is usually 20,000 yen or 30,000 yen
A typical Japanese wedding party starts when the bride and groom enter the banquet hall together, and take their seats on a slightly raised platform facing their guests Invited guests are seated closer to the bride and groom, with family and relatives seated further in back The bride's and groom's bosses usually give congratulatory speeches then their friends sing in celebration Other wedding highlights include a candle ceremony where the couple
holds a candle while greeting their guests at each table, and the cutting of the wedding cake Afterwards, the bride and
groom thank their parents with a speech, then leave to end the party
In the past, dishes that supposedly brought good fortune, such as prawns and sea breams, were served in
abundance So much of the food was ordered that guests ended up taking the surplus home Today, the majority of the weddings serve just enough for everyone Additionally, before leaving, guests would traditionally receive souvenir gifts
called hikidemono
Many wedding ceremonies take place at wedding halls or hotels Rough estimates show that it costs about 3 million yen to host a wedding party for 80 guests During Japan's economic bubble, overseas weddings and flamboyant receptions with special effects, such as smoke machines and having the bride and groom fly in on gondolas, were very
popular But these days, couples choose to tie the knot in various ways, from not having any ceremony to having a
modest affair, or still going all out

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 issue of equality for women in British society first attracted national attention in the early 20th century, when the suffragettes won for women the right to vote In the 1960s feminism became the subject of intense debate when the women’s liberation movement encouraged women to reject their traditional supporting role and to demand equal status and equal rights with men in areas such as employment and pay
Since then, the gender gap between the sexes has been reduced The Equal Pay Act of 1970, for instance, made
it illegal for women to be paid less than men for doing the same work, and in 1975 the Sex Discrimination Act aimed to prevent either sex having an unfair advantage when applying for jobs In the same year the Equal Opportunities
Commission was set up to help people claim their rights to equal treatment and to publish research and statistics to show where improvements in opportunities for women need to be made Women now have much better employment Code 101 Page 3
Trang 4opportunities, though they still tend to get less well-paid jobs than men, and very few are appointed to top jobs in industry
In the US the movement that is often called the “first wave of feminism” began in the mid 1800s
Susan B Anthony worked for the right to vote, Margaret Sanger wanted to provide women with the means of
contraception so that they could decide whether or not to have children, and Elizabeth Blackwell, who had to fight for the chance to become a doctor, wanted women to have greater opportunities to study Many feminists were interested in other social issues
The second wave of feminism began in the 1960s Women like Betty Friedan and Gloria Steinem
became associated with the fight to get equal rights and opportunities for women under the law An important issue was the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA), which was intended to change the Constitution Although the ERA was not passed, there was progress in other areas It became illegal for employers, schools, clubs, etc to discriminate against
women But women still find it hard to advance beyond a certain point in their careers, the so-called glass ceiling that
prevents them from having high-level jobs Many women also face the problem of the second shift, i.e the household chores
In the 1980s, feminism became less popular in the US and there was less interest in solving the
remaining problems, such as the fact that most women still earn much less than men Although there is still
discrimination, the principle that it should not exist is widely accepted

Question 44 The phrase “gender gap” in paragraph 2 refers to
