Should Men and Women Be Equal?
Should men and women be equal? This is a much talked question nowadays.
Some hold that men are superior to women in many ways. For one thing, many jobs which can easily be done by men, can hardly be done by women. And for another, most of the world famous people are found to be males. Moreover, the whole human society seems to have all along be dominated by men only. Hence, men should enjoy more rights than women.
Other people, however, maintain that both men and women are born equal And women are certainly as intelligent as men if they are given equal opportunities of education. It is a well known fact that many women have been working side by side with men in many fields in China. Besides, there are many women, Madame Curit and Margreat Thatcher, to name only a few, in history who work as scientists and politicians. So men and women should be equal in every respect.
Personally, I firmly believe that women should be given the same rights as men, because they are equally important in all human activities. Our human society would definitelynhave stopped to exist without either of the sex. Is there a ylreason that men and women should be treated differenty?

男女应该平等吗?
男女是否应该平等是当今的一个热门话题。
有人认为在许多方面男性比女性优越。原因之一是许多男性可以胜任的工作，女性却难以完成。原因之二是大多数世界著名的人物都是男性。另外，整个人类社会似乎全由男性操纵。山此，男性应享有比女性更多的权利。
然而，另一些人则坚持男女生来平等。如果给女性同样受教育的机会，女性一定会与男性一样聪明。众所周知，在中国的许多领域里，女性一直与男性并肩作战。而且，历史上有许多女科学家和政治家，居里夫人和撒切尔夫人就是例子。因此，男女应在各方面平等。
就我个人而言，我坚信女性应该得到与男性同等的权利。因为在人类活动中，他们只有同等重要的作用。如果没有男人或没有女人，我们人类社会肯定会不存在。难道还有什么理由区别对待男性和女性吗?
