19、for the goal. All in all, people should not be content with what they have. Instead, it is significant for us to realize our ambitions in fair and equitable ways. People must always remember that ambition is a good thing as long as it does not harm others.4.Directions: In this part, you are required

21、raditional “women“s jobs“ such as nursing and primary school teaching, but are taking on the duties of scientists, airline pilots and even political leaders. Women are proving that they can contribute just as much as men can do to society. As a result, they are achieving social equality. With the ch

22、anges in their social role, women“s position in the family has improved as well. Nowadays, husband and wife tend to treat each other as equals.

23、hile his wife spends all her time in the kitchen. In spite of these changes, the liberation of women has not yet been completely realized.

Second, more subway lines should be developed as quickly as possible to reduce the jam on roads. These measures taken, I am pretty confident that traffic problems in urban areas will be solved in the near future.
