Bên cạnh những chủ đề phổ biến trong IELTS như ”Family”, ”Love”, hay ”Travel”, IELTS cũng có rất nhiều chủ đề độc lạ, khiến thí sinh không khỏi bối rối.
Hưởng ứng không khí của ngày Quốc tế Phụ nữ 8/3, hôm nay, hãy cùng khám phá một chủ đề như vậy trong IELTS, là ”Gender Equality” (Sự cân bằng giới tính) nhé!
- To what extent has the traditional female role changed in the last 20 years?
Well, it is obvious that the female role has changed a lot in the last 20 years. In the past, females used to stay at home and be the homemaker. They would not go to work and bring home the bacon like men. However, in this day and age, this has changed significantly as shown in the rise of dual-income households.
Từ vựng:
- bring home the bacon: kiếm tiền nuôi sống gia đình
- in this day and age: trong thời đại nàyy
- dual-income household: gia đình có cả vợ và chồng đều đi làm
2. Are men and women equal in terms of intelligence and ability?
The answer is yes, provided they are born and bred in settings with similar educational levels. To be more specific, if educated parents raise them, it is likely that males and females will have the same level of ability and intelligence. People often say that women are somehow less clever than men, but it is not true since we are all capable of developing ourselves to the fullest.
Từ vựng:
- born and bred: được sinh ra và nuôi dưỡng
- develop oneself to the fullest: phát triển bản thân toàn diện nhất
3. What behaviors are deemed as appropriate for men but inappropriate for women?
Due to gender differences, there are many behaviors that could be considered suitable for men but not for women. Smoking is one of them. The image of a male with a cigarette is totally normal, however, if it is replaced by a female, the story would be different. The women could be stared at, talked about, or even criticized. Another action is fighting. People tend to take men fighting for granted, but in the case of women, it is regarded as unethical and rude.
- gender differences: sự khác biệt về giới tính
- unethical: không có đạo đức
