Reference version| In feudal China, women had low social status, and were regarded as inferior to men. Thanks to the womens liberation movement, women have achieved equal status with men, which is established by the law. But in fact, they still cant enjoy equal rights with men.

Rigtht from the start, we think that as long as we are different, there is something wrong with us. b. There are those who assume that since I cant see, I obviously cannot hear.Very often people will talk with me at the top ot their lungs, uttering each word very carefully. On the other hand, people will also often whisper, assuming that since my eyes dont work, my ears dont either. For example, when I go to the airport and ask the ticket agent for assistance to the plane, he or she will invariably pick ud the phone, call a ground hostess and whisper: “Hi, Jane, weve got a 76 here.” I have concluded that the word “ blind” is not used for one of
