Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions. 

As working women continue to receive better and better wages, housewives still work at home without receiving pay – checks. Should a woman who works at home, doing the housework and caring for children, be paid for her service? In a 1986 study at Cornell University, sociologists found that the value of the services of a housewife averaged $ 11,600 a year. This rate was based on a family composed of a husband, wife, and three young children. The $ 11,600 is what the husband would have to pay if he hired others to take over his wife’s household chores. The researchers concluded that it would be fair for husbands to pay wives according to federal guidelines for minimum wages.

         Another plan for rewarding women who work at home has been suggested by a former Secretary of Health and Human Services. He says that full-time housewives should be allowed to pay social security taxes, with their employers contributing part of the payment. He feels that the present system is unfair. He said, “ If you stay at home and raise a family, nobody will give you credit for it.”

What is the main purpose of this passage ?

A. To suggest that housewives should be paid for their household chores.

B. To ask men to treat wives better.

C. To encourage women to go out to work.

D. To suggest that men should share the housework with their wives.

Những người phụ nữ đó nên được trả công cho những dịch vụ mà họ đã làm như làm việc nhà và chăm trẻ…) và đoạn cuối cũng đề xuất thêm “…He says that full-time housewives should be allowed to pay social security taxes, with their employers contributing part of the payment…”- (Ông nói rằng các bà nội trợ làm việc toàn thời gian nên được phép đóng thuế an sinh xã hội, cùng với chủ sử dụng lao động đóng góp vào một khoản trong đó). Chung quy lại,xuyên suốt từ đầu đến cuối bài lặp đi lặp lại ý những người phụ nữ làm việc nhà nên được trả công
