VI. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your ANSWER SHEET to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

Throughout history, the central role of women in society has ensured the stability, progress and long-term development of nations. Globally, women comprise 43 percent of the world's agricultural labor force - rising to 70 percent in some countries. For instance, across Africa, 80 percent of agricultural production comes from small farmers, most of whom are rural women. It's widely accepted that agriculture can be the engine of growth and poverty reduction in developing nations. Women, notably mothers, play the largest role in decision making about family meal planning and diet. And, women self-report more often their initiative in preserving child health and nutrition.

Women are the primary caretakers of children and elders in every country of the world. International studies demonstrate that when the economy and political organization of a society change, women take the lead in helping the family adjust to new realities and challenges. They are likely to be the prime initiator of outside assistance, and play an important role in facilitating (or hindering) changes in family life.

The contribution of women to a society's transition from pre-literate to literate likewise is undeniable. Basic education is the key to a nation's ability to develop and achieve sustainability targets. Research has shown that education can improve agricultural productivity, enhance the status of girls and women, reduce population growth rates, enhance environmental protection, and widely raise the standard of living.

Today, the median female share of the global workforce is 45.4 percent. The role of women in the urban and rural workforce has expanded exponentially in recent decades.
