The majority of medium and large companies pay higher wage rates to men than to women, according to the latest government figures. The disparity, known as the gender pay gap, reflects the different average hourly salaries earned by men and women. The government data showed 74% of firms pay higher rates to their male staff. just 15% of businesses with more than 250 employees pay more to women. As many as 11% of firms said there is no difference between the rates paid to either gender.

Unlike pay inequality - which compares the wages of men and women doing the same job - a gender pay difference at a company is not illegal, but could possibly reﬂect discrimination. The average gender pay gap across all medium and large-sized firms is now 8.2%, as measured by median pay. in other words, men typically earn over 8% more per hour than women. Among those with the largest gender pay gap are airlines such as Tui and Easyjet, and banks including Virgin Money, the Clydesdale and TSB. Easyjet has said its pay gap of 45.5% is down to the fact that most of its pilots are male, while most of its more modestly paid cabin crew are female. Tui Airways - where men earn 47% more than

214women - has the same issue. Many banks also appear to have a gender bias on salaries. The Bank of England's wage rate for men is 24% higher than for its female employees.

By law, all firms with more than 250 staff must report their gender pay gap to the government by 4 April this year. So far only 1,047 firms have complied, leaving another 8,000 to go. Carolyn Fairbairn, director general of the CBI, denied companies were dragging their feet in reporting the data. "I don't see a reluctance," she told the Today programme. "I think this is genuinely quite difficult data to find, it is often sitting on different systems and firms are working very hard towards that deadline.

The phrase "dragging their feet" in paragraph 3 means ________.

A. succeeding

II. READING COMPREHENSION
2.1. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
Why are there so many grandmothers and so few grandfathers? In other words, why do men die
younger than women? Is this because men are afraid of getting old and helpless and so they prefer to die
before that happens? Perhaps they fear to be left alone by their women and so decide to do the leaving first.
Many explanations are given for the fact that men die earlier than women. Men are stronger
physically, yet women can hang on longer to life. Both men and women are emotional creatures but women
are not afraid or ashamed to cry while men refuse to do so. They are afraid of being thought "soft". Some
men, when they are upset, play loud music or dig in the garden to relieve their feelings. Many men like an
orderly life so that they bury themselves in their work or want a wife with some children or long to take part
in wars where there is a definite chain of command. There is a leader to give orders and a known enemy to
fight against and defeat. All these make men feel they live in a rational world.
So the majority of men like a rational world. Rationality is fine but it does not include everything that
makes life joyful and fun or even messy and frustrating. When a man refuses to cry, he is refusing to accept
that his emotions are part of him. Of course, some men do not follow this pattern. Bob Hawke is capable of
crying in public whereas Margaret Thatcher is probably incapable of crying at any time.
We need to cry because that shows our ability to suffer. If we do not suffer, we are not really alive at
all. Suffering can be creative or destructive. If we can all learn to cry and laugh and shout and dance openly,
we are living creatively and adding something to the human race. We often say men suffer more from stress
and therefore they die earlier. Are we not saying in another way that they do not know how to suffer in the
right way - with tears and laughter instead of silence - and so they are miserable and just give up? That is just
my theory of course. Have you a better one?
1. What does the word “that” in the passage refer to?
A. The fact that men get old and helpless.
B. The fact that they fear to be left alone.
C. The fact that men die younger than women.
D. The fact that they decide to do the leaving first.
2. What's the main question the article is intended to discuss?
A. Why women are more emotional than men.
B. Why suffering is different in men and women.
C. Why men die earlier than women.
D. Why men like a rational world.
3. What is found the same for both men and women?
A. They like to cry. B. They are physically strong.
C. They are emotional creatures. D. They want to play loud music.
4. The phrase “to do the leaving” is closest in meaning to.............
A. set off B. go down C. pass away D. depart
5. What's the writer's opinion toward crying?
A. It is a good thing for people to cry.

B. It is all right for women to cry but shameful for men.
C. Tears are not real signs of suffering.
D. To be silent is better than to cry.

Câu có các động từ sau: think, belive, suppose, figure, assume, fancy, imgine, reckon, expect, seem, feel that + mệnh đề phụ:

- Lấy mệnh đề phụ làm câu hỏi đuôi nếu chủ ngữ của mệnh đề đầu là “I”.

Ví dụ:

I think he will come here, won’t he? (Tôi nghĩ là anh ấy sẽ đến phải vậy không?)

Lưu ý: mệnh đề chính có “not” thì vẫn tính như ở mệnh đề phụ

Ví dụ: I don’t believe Mary can do it, can she?

- Cùng mẫu này nhưng nếu chủ từ không phải là “I” thì lại dùng mệnh đề đầu làm câu hỏi đuôi.

Ví dụ: She thinks he will come, doesn’t she?

Do đó: People believe that men make build the house and women make it home, ___?

Chủ ngữ của mệnh đề đầu là “people” nên ta hỏi đuôi theo mệnh đề đầu.
