A B C D E F
Решение #1

Правильный ответ — 375164  

 

A — 3 

The aim of the event is to raise awareness about pay discrimination

 

Выбираем отрывок №3, так как он логично завершает мысль о цели Европейского дня равной оплаты труда — повышении осведомленности о дискриминации в зарплатах. Это прямо соответствует вводному предложению. 

 

B — 7 

For instance, there is almost no difference between the levels in Germany and Greece, despite Germany being the richest country in the EU

 

Отрывок №7 подходит, потому что он создает контраст: в Германии и Греции разрыв в оплате почти одинаков, несмотря на то, что Германия — самая богатая страна ЕС. 

 

C — 5 

Although this is unfair, there are many complex reasons for it

 

Здесь нужен отрывок №5, так как он объясняет, почему разрыв существует (есть много сложных причин), после утверждения о его несправедливости. Это логичный переход к дальнейшим аргументам.    

 

D — 1 

In the first place, men are more likely to get better job positions and be promoted than women colleagues.  

 

Отрывок №1 завершает сравнение: мужчины чаще получают повышение (and be promoted), что раскрывает первую причину разрыва — карьерное неравенство.

 

E — 6 

Only women need maternity leave and they also spend much more time looking after children or caring for relatives than men do.  

 

Отрывок №6 добавляет к декретному отпуску (maternity leave) вторую причину — женщины больше времени тратят на уход за детьми. Это ключевой фактор влияния на карьеру.

 

F — 4

Another problem is that some jobs are done mainly by women whereas others are male dominated. 

 

Отрывок №4 противопоставляет женские профессии (упомянутые ранее) мужским, подчеркивая гендерное разделение труда.
