Cet-6-1.14-Exercise 02There may be something in both arguments, but in most rich countries sexism is no longer the main obstacle to women’s careers. Children are. Most women take career breaks to look after them. Many care for elderly relatives, too. One study found that two-thirds of American women had at some point switched from full-time work to part-time or flexible time to balance work and family. Such choices make it harder for women to gain the experience necessary to make it to the very top. What does the author say is the real barrier to women’s careers?
A. The widespread sexism in the workplace.
B. The burden of taking care of their family.
C. Greater diversity.
D. Exceptional diligence.
