36、se of this practice, many people thought that African men treated African women like slaves. But these first impressions(印象) proved to be false. Until about 50 years ago, most African women had more freedom and independence than women in western nations did. In some places of Africa, women have owne

37、d most business and been the chief traders for many years.

42、s surrounded by children. By the time traffic began to move, I had gone through four boxes.
