Although women now make up almost half of all workers in the US, nearly 80 percent of them are employed in low-paying clerical, sales, service, or factory jobs. Approximately a third of all women workers have clerical jobs, which pay on average $12,000 or less. Partly as a result, women make only seventy-five cents for every dollar earned by men. Moreover, men routinely make more money even when education, experience, and responsibilities are equal. The gap in male-female earning has great significance because more than 16 percent of U.S. households are headed by women. Low-paying jobs keep many of these households in poverty. Women's groups such as National Organization for Women have demanded that equal opportunities and equal pay be given to women. According to women's activist Maggie McAnany, "It is imperative that the government help to change the situation of employment for women. We cannot wait for the companies to reform themselves. Change must . ome through the law."                                                                                      The passage is mainly about____________________________________________________. ___________                                                                                                                                                          A.The Women's Liberation Movement in the US                                                                                                  B.
