Read the following text to answer questions 21-25,
The increasing employment of Indonesian women
workers comes mostly from middle-and-upper-income
families. This is because many of them have got higher
education. Today more than half of all women college
graduates are employed, compared to four out often
high school graduates, three out often elementary
school graduates, and only two out often among those
with less than grade five in school. Most of the
working girls in the 1980s were unskilled, but today's
working women have considerably more education
than those who do not work. Among the working
women only three fourths are high school graduates
and less than 10 percent have not been to high school at
all.
Most well-educated middle class working women hold
white collar or professional jobs. Although many other
kinds of work are offered to college graduated women,
clerical work and teaching are mostly preferred. About
three fifths of the girls who are graduated from high
schools take clerical jobs.
