Throughout much of the history of human civilization, deep-seated cultural beliefs, allowed women only limited roles in society. Many people believed that women's natural roles, were as mothers and wives. These people considered women to be better suited for childbearing and homemaking rather than for involvement in the public life of business or politics. Widespread doubt about women's intellectual ability led most societies to deny education, employment and some of the legal and political rights to women. It was men who controlled most positions of employment and power in society. The struggle for women's rights - the rights that establish the same social, economic, and political status for women as for men - began in the 18th century during a period known as the Age of Enlightenment. During this period, political philosophers in Europe began to argue that all individuals, male or female, were born with natural rights that made them free and equal. These pioneer thinkers advocated that women should not be discriminated on the basis of their sex. Today, although their status varies in different countries, women in most parts of the world have gained significant legal rights. Among them, the most important are the right to have equal work opportunity and pay to men, the right to vote, and the right to gain formal education. On the whole, a better recognition towards women has been won.

Making movies For centuries, people such as Leonardo da Vinci dreamed (84) about “photographing” objects in motion. Finally, (85) in the twentieth century, inventors succeeded (86) in developing a movie camera. Leland Stanford was one of the first people to experiment (87) with movement and pictures. Because he wanted to study the motion (88) of a running horse, Stanford asked a friend to take series (89) of photographs of one. He hoped to find out if the horse ever managed to have all four feet off the ground (90) at the same time. To prove this new theories is often difficult, and Stanford’s project wasn’t easy to do. His photographer needed to use twenty-four cameras set close (91) to each other to take pictures one (92) after the other. After developing the pictures, he was able to report that a running horse did not, (93) in fact, touch the ground at all times. Later, the inventor Thomas Edison asked Standford to show him the pictures and to introduce him (94) to the photographer. During this meeting, Edison began to develop his ideas (95) for the first picture camera. It’s wasn’t difficult to interest others in Edison’s work. Soon, many kinds of cameras were invented, and within twenty years, filmmaking was a major industry.
