Yesterday some of my friends talked about women' s jobs. They have different opinions. Here are some of their ideas:

I don't think that there are any special jobs made for women. Women can fit into all kinds of jobs. We have even seen women drivers and engineers these days.

Eric

Nowadays men and women can do the same job, but I think that teaching suits women better than men. Women can be very good teachers.

Sidney

I think that boys and girls are not equal in the field of work. For example, women are thought to be a burden (负担) in India and it is difficult for them to find a job. This is really unfair

Mary

I also agree with Eric. At present there is no difference between girls and boys in the field of work, but some jobs are not suitable for girls. I believe that office and teaching jobs are perfect for girls.

Rose

It's true that girls can do all types of jobs, but some jobs such as teaching, HR management and nursing are really good for girls. However, as for politics, I think that girls should avoid this type of work.

A famous magician (魔术师) came to our city and gave some shows every day. Most of his shows had some educational messages. He taught lessons about health, history and some other important things about life through his magic tricks. Both parents and children enjoyed his magic shows, the children mainly for the fun and the parents mainly for the education.

My aunt went to our home and gave us two tickets for one of his shows last week. I watched the show with my mother last Wednesday. I had seen this magician's show on TV one year ago. But it was the first time I had seen alive (现场演出的) show, so I was very excited. The show taught children not to steal by describing how a person might feel when his or her thing was stolen. In the show, there was a monkey who liked eating bananas. He often stole things and never cared about the owners' feelings. Then one day he found his own things were stolen. He was worried and angry. From that experience, he realized how worried and angry others would be when their things were lost. From then on he decided to stop stealing.

The show was great. It made me understand why we shouldn't take what didn't belong to us. I also learned that we shouldn't get happiness from hurting others.
