Mr.Harris used to work in Dover，but then he changed his work，and he and his wife moved to another town.They did not have many friends there，but they soon met a lot of interesting people，and after a few weeks，they often went to dinner or to parties at other people's houses.

Then Mrs.Harris said to her husband，“We've been to a lot of other people's houses，and now we must invite them to our house，mustn't we？”

“Yes，certainly，” answered her husband，“A big party will be the easiest thing，won't it？Then we can start to invite people to dinner in small numbers next month.”

So Mrs.Harris said，“Yes，I'll invite all our friends here to a big party on 5th December.”

“How many will that be？” Mr.Harris asked.“Don't invite too many.”

Mrs.Harris was beginning to write the invitations when her husband saw that she was writing，“Party：6：30 to 8：30 p．m.”

“That isn't very nice，is it？” he said.“You're telling our guests that they must go at 8：30.” So Mrs.Harris just wrote “Party: 6：30 p．m.”

A lot of guests came，and they all had a good time，so they did not go home at 8：30.In fact they were still there at midnight when the door bell rang and a policeman arrived.He said，“You must stop making a noise，because someone has complained(抱怨)．”

Mr.Harris said he did not want to quarrel with the policeman，so everyone went home.They were sorry to have to go.

When Mr.and Mrs.Harris were alone again，she said to him.“That was a surprise，wasn't it? Who complained about the noise？”

“I did，” Mr. Harris answered in a tired voice.

It's a man's world，and many women don't like it.

The women say they are treated like second­class citizens and therefore feel that their anger is justified.Women everywhere，they say，earn less money than men for the same kind of work. Women have less power in their communities than men，and in most cities and towns the political decisions are made by men.There are few women mayors or city officials.The same thing is true in labor unions，and religious groups.Even in unions where the members are almost all women，the heads of the unions are men.The presidents of almost all the big corporations in the country are men.There are few women ministers and no women priests.

Many women have been aware of these inequalities for a long time.Only recently，however，a drive for women's rights made many more women and men，too，interested in fair treatment for women.Groups have formed to demand equal pay for equal work，changes in abortion laws，and round­the­clock day­care centers for children.Women have even started their own newspapers to fight for their cause.They have written books and marched in parades protesting their second­class place in society.

He works for a small firm in Liverpool，where most young people of his age are finding jobs.David's biggest headache is what to do with his money.Though he has high payment，he cannot drive a car，or get credit cards(信用卡)．

David got his job four months ago，a year after leaving school with six O­levels(普通成绩) and working for a time in a computer shop.“I got the job because the people who run the firm knew I had already written some programs，”he  said.

“I suppose ￡35，000 sounds a lot but I hope it will come to more than that this year.”He spends some of his money on records and clothes，and gives his mother ￡20 a week as he lives with his parents.But most of his spare time is spent  working.

“Unfortunately，computing was not part of our studies at school，”he said.“But I had been studying it in books and magazines for four years in my spare time.I knew what I wanted to do and never considered staying on at school.Most people in this business are fairly young，anyway.I would like to earn a million and I suppose early retirement(退休) is a  possibility.You never know when the market might disappear.”
