Until the 19th century, the denial of equal rights to women met with only occasional protest and drew little attention from most people Because most women lacked the educational and economic resources that would enable them to challenge the prevailing social order, women generally accepted their inferior status as their only option At this time, women shared these disadvantages with the majority of working class men, as many social, economic, and political rights were restricted to the wealthy elite [phần tử ưu tú] In the 19th century, as governments in
Trang 8Europe and North America began to draft new laws guaranteeing equality among men, significant numbers of women – and some men – began to demand that women be accorded equal rights
as well
At the same time, the Industrial Revolution in Europe and North America further divided the roles of men and women Before the Industrial Revolution most people worked in farming or crafts-making, both of which took place in or near the home Men and women usually divided the numerous tasks among themselves and their children Industrialization led male workers to seek employment outside of the home in factories and other large-scale [extensivve]enterprises The growing split between home and work reinforced the idea that women’s “rightful place” was in the home, while men belonged in the public world of employment and politics
Organized efforts by women to achieve greater rights occurred in two major waves The first wave began around the mid-19th century, when women in the United States and elsewhere campaigned to gain suffrage [ right to vote in political elections]– that is, the right to vote This wave lasted until the 1920s, when several countries granted women suffrage

42 Until the 19th century, what was the status of the working class men in the society?
A They had the same rights as women B They had no right at all
C They did not have much power compared to the wealthy people
D They had much power in the society
43 When did the women’s movement start in Western countries?
A in the 18th century B in the late 18thcentury C in the 19th century D in the early 20th
century
44 What did the effect of the Industrial Revolution in Europe and North America bring about?
A Male workers tried to seek employment outside of the home
B It did not bring the equality to women
C Well-educated, upper-class men controlled most positions of employment and power in society
