根据短文,回答{TSE}题 Empowering workers constitutes the first step toward a stronger economy and stronger citizenry.It is a vital step toward overcoming inequality in American society.During the l980s,the need for better wages for a11 workers increased as women,traditionally secondary earners,assumed greater responsibility for their own and their children’s well-being.Yet the ability to raise families to a decent living standard through wage work decreased;real wages fell for most workers.And the Federal Government enacted no new policies to facilitate the integration of work and family,as working women and working families suffered a loss in political power as wellBlack or Hispanic women are four times as likely to be low-wage workers as are white men with compa- rable skills and experien.White women are more than three times fls likely as white men to be low-wage workers,and black or Hispanic men more than one-and-a-half times as likely.More than half of all low-wage workers are the only wage workers in their families,or live alone.EmpIoyment no longer provides an escape from poverty.More than eight million working adults are poor;two million of them work full-time, year-round.More than seven million poor children have at least one working parent. When that one working parent is fl low-wage worker.the children have no better chance of escaping from poverty than if the parents were not working at all;more than two-fifths of such children are poor.Even if generous income assistance were available,the wages employers pay would be held to a minimum.In addition,policies such as tax credits for working parents do nothing to increase the political power of working women and men.Our research shows that—unioni—zation is among the most effective strategies for raising pay,especially for women and minority melt,Being a union member,or being covered by a collective-bargaining agreement, raised l984 wages by$1.79 per hour for Hispanic men,$1.32 for black men,$1.26 for Hispanic women,$1.O1/for black women,$0.68 for white women,and$0.41 for white men,when all other factors,such as occupation,industry,firm size,education andexperience were held constant.In percentage terms,the union increase was more than l5 percent for blacks and Hispanics,11 percent for white women,and 4 percent for white men.{TS}During the l980s,women started to play a more important role in__________.[A]demanding political rights[B]improving social welfare[C]supporting the family[D]earning better wages
