America is a country where equality between men and women is important. American women officially launched their fight for equal rights in 1848, in Seneca Falls, New York. It wasn’t until 1920 that women in America were granted a legal right to vote in civic elections. The famous Nineteenth Amendment gave them this right. More and more women are joining the labor market in America. These days, roughly 65% of American workers are women. However, on average, male workers in America still make about 22% more money than their female counterparts. It seems that the road to full gender equality in America is a long one.

(Please send the mispronounced words and expressions to your student.)

PART E_2

In the middle of a conversation, Japanese people often ask each other, “What blood type are you?” Why do Japanese people like to categorize people on almost any occasion? For example, they call those who think logically “left-brained,” and those who think emotionally “right-brained.” Similarly, many people keep on labeling others as the “science” type or the “art” type, even years after college graduation. Perhaps categorizing people by blood type is the most extreme example. Maybe it’s true that people can be categorized into types based on what they have in common. However, if you ask “What is your blood type?” to foreigners you meet for the first time, they will be surprised. Perhaps in a country like America, where everyone has a different background, categorizing people is useless.

PART H_2

New technology may change the meaning of “window shopping.” Recently, German experts started testing new software in a real store window. The system uses four cameras and a large computer monitor. The computer monitor is located at the entrance of the store. The four cameras capture 3-D images of people passing by on the street. The software calculates eye, face, and hand positions. Right at the store window, people can interact with the company website without even touching a computer. They only have to look at a product on the monitor to make its sales details appear. They only have to point at a link to visit another store department. In this way, window shoppers can select products to view, and even buy them, right from the street. “Customers can window shop… for real,” said researcher Alan Baum. The system is on display this month in Hanover, Germany.
