Some Russian women became well-known fighter pilots during the Second World War. Yekaterina Budanova
was one of them. She joined the Soviet Army and became a fighter pilot after working as a non-military pilot. At
first, Budanova’s officer didn’t believe in her ability. But in a short time Budanova became famous for her talent
and remarkable flying skills. Unfortunately, she died at the age of 26 in air-to-air fighting against German planes,
although she already shot down one plane and hit a second before being shot down herself.
Interested in flying at an early age, Lydia Litvyak joined a flying club and performed her first solo fight at the
age of 15. She became a flight instructor after graduating from the military flying school. After the German attack
on the Soviet Union in 1941, Litvyak joined the Soviet Air Force and soon achieved great success. Like
Budanova, she was killed (at the age of 21) in fighting against German planes. And along with Yekaterina
Budanova, Lydia Litvyak is often considered one of the world’s famous female fighter pilots.

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 (from 26 to 30).
In the late 19th century, the women’s movement occurred in many developed countries. It is said to begin in
Western societies and then quickly spread over the world. During the movement, women fought against inequality
in education, employment, reproductive rights, etc. Their uprising was the inevitable result of such a long period
of being subdued. The victims of the temporarily old society were not only women from poor families but also
from all the social classes not permitted to express their own ideas. To these people, life seemed to last endlessly
without freedom and joyfulness. Therefore, their reaction was considered as the revolution in recognising their
contributions and narrowing the huge gender gap between males and females. The victory of the feminist
movement gave birth for the new era of independence, liberty, and happiness for all women globally. Since then,
women have legally gone to school, chosen their career, and been admitted to most social institutions and
organisations, which had been considered extremely luxurious things for them. Although gender inequality has
been substantially reduced over the past decades, there are still a few places where women do not have their
entitlement, young girl children are completely illiterate and mature ones cannot work and receive payment as
equally as men. How to help them to be released from the culturally regional oppression is a very tricky situation.
However, it is believed that this issue is going to be resolved soon.

A.Western societies B. over the world C. Eastern societies D. the United States
