Women earn less than men do. For example, in 1998 the hourly wages of women in the U. S. were 26% less than those of men.
The gap between male and female incomes varies with age. The gap between the labor incomes of young women and young men
varies. It's also clear that jobs in which women are concentrated pay less. The larger the number of workers who are women in ran
industry, the lower the average wages.
Why do women earn less than men do? Can the differences be explained by the fact that women are looked
down upon? If so, the government has to intervene(干预), to force the employers to pay equal wages to equal jobs. However, there is no agreement among economists about the causes of
the gap. One view argues that women, on the average, have chosen low-paying jobs in which workers enjoy the freedom of entering and leaving the labor force, which reduces their years of experience relative
to men. Other people say the gap can also be explained by the difference in educational background.
Much of the gap, however, has not been fully explained. It might be the result of some prejudice (偏见) against women. It is this part that has produced calls for government action. What would happen if the government did intervene to
increase the wages paid to women? One possibility is that incomes for women as a group might actually decline (下降). An increase in wage decreases the quantity of labor imput demanded, resulting in decreased employment as the rate of hiring new
workers declines. The result will be a surplus 过剩) of labor. Those who can find jobs might be better off while those who had jobs
might find themselves out of work.

Australia is nearly as large as the United States, but most of it is too dry for people to live in. Around
this dry part are large sheep and cow farms. A few of them are as large as the smallest states: of America.
Often the nearest neighbours are several hundred kilometers away.
The two-way radio is very important to people who live on these great Australian farms. It works much like a
telephone. A person can listen to someone else talk and then gives an answer. For example, people on
the large farms could talk to a doctor far away. They could tell the doctor about someone who was ill,
and the doctor could let them know how to look after the sick person.
As the large farms were so far from towns, the children could not go to school. Radio schools were
started for them in some places. At a certain time each day, boys and girls turn on their radios and
listen to teachers in cities far away.
Families on the large farms wanted to give news to their neighbours. The programme Round Robin
Talks by radio was started to keep families in touch with each other. They could talk about who was
going away and who was iii. The men could talk about their sheep and cows and how much money
the markets would pay for them. In many ways the radio became a newspaper for the farm people of Australia.
