问题     " Almost universally, women have failed to reach leading positions
in major corporations and private sector organizations, respective of their【S1】________

also fighting a losing battle for sexual harassment.【S5】________
    A British study found that women in one company subjecting to【S6】________

label of ’feminist’ and ’whining’ , while trying to be one of the men
invited further harassment," the ILO report said.
    A survey of 300 companies in Britain last year found that just

of their male counterparts—putting them ahead of their counterparts in
most other countries.

largest companies found that women there held just 1 to 3 percent of the
top executive and boardroom positions. The ILO also reported that the
comparative high proportion of women executives in large French【S10】________
companies—13 percent—was now falling again from the 1980s levels. [br] 【S9】
