　　Woman have more problems than men in old age. First of all,

　　they have less money—or no money at all — and because of this,

　　they often feel they get less respect , even at home. Quite a

　　large number have no pension(退休费) because they have never

　　worked outside the home, and thirty-eight percent are

　　supported mainly by their husbands or children. Second, a

　　larger number of old women than old men become window(single

　　women). Men are normally older than the women they marry, and

　　women generally live longer than men. The remarriage among

　　older windows is lower than that among widows(single men).

　　Statistics (统计) from 1990 in Shanghai show only 52 percent of

　　elderly women with husbands still living, compared

　　to(与---相比)82 percent of men.

　　Because of lower incomes and the difficulty of remarriage,

　　many elderly women who live alone, are poor and have almost no

　　social life. Even an old couple lives with children, it is the

　　woman who ends up doing the work around the house. She cleans

　　the rooms, prepares meals, and takes care of the family. Some

　　75 percent of them carry out such heavy physical tasks as

　　buying and carrying grain, coal and other supplies for the

　　home. How to improve the quality of life of women in their
