第七章 Unit 7 Women: Making a difference:Should women stay home or work outside?  Male and female gender roles have continually changed throughout history. In the early 1900s, definite gender roles existed between men and women. The man worked outside to support  the family, fixed the family car and did the manly "handyman" jobs. The woman stayed at home, cared for children and cooked and cleaned. But gender roles have undergone many changes and advancements. Gender roles especially affect the home and workplace. Men and women who had employed mothers have a greater acceptance of working mothers than those who didn't. Working dads seem to be spending more time with their kids than 30 years ago. Men also have a tendency to handle more of the caring for their children than in past decades. Due to the many changes, the gap is shrinking between how both men and women view traditional roles in the family. This unit aims at exploring a current social issue: gender roles, a topic that could spark a lot of debates and arguments. So the topic discussion of online learning is about the changes of gender roles. In the second section, the differences between British and American English are introduced.  The discrimination of the different use between British and American English can help students understand more correctly in reading and listening comprehension. In the third section, the useful skills and the specific procedures of how to write an argumentative essay are introduced.7.1英语怎么说?:Topic Discussion:With the development of economy and women's liberation, male and female roles have changed throughout history. Women embraced this abrupt status change and rose to the challenge of finding work to support their family. But traditionally women who work full time are still perceived as having the primary responsibility of caring for the children and home and still do more housework than their husbands. There have been great changes in equality in the workplace, but men are still expected to earn more money and act as leaders in working. However, in contemporary society, gender issues have become more and more controversial than ever before as a consequence of the fiece competition of today's global economy, which has produced many strong and competent female executives and leaders at various management levels. There are lots of examples which tell us momen have entered the workforce playing significant roles and societies have been greatly impacted.
