Read the passage from The Pillow Book. "I cannot bear men who believe that women serving in the Palace are bound to be frivolous

and wicked. Yet I suppose their prejudice is understandable. After all, women at Court do not spend their time hiding modestly behind fans and screens, but walk about, looking openly at people they chance to meet. Yes, they see everyone face to face, not only ladies-in-waiting like themselves, but even Their Imperial Majesties (whose . . . names I hardly dare mention), High Court Nobles, senior courtiers, and other gentlemen of high rank. In the presence of such exalted personages, the women in the Palace are all equally brazen, whether they be the maids of ladies-in-waiting, or the relations of Court ladies who have come to visit them, or housekeepers, or latrine-cleaners, or women who are of no more value than a roof-tile or a pebble. Small wonder that the young men regard them as immodest! Yet are the gentlemen themselves any less so? They are not exactly bashful when it comes to looking at the great people in the Palace. No, everyone at Court is much the same in this respect.” What conclusion can be drawn about the author’s point of view of women in the palace? They seem wicked. They act too bashfully. They appear to be modest. They are confident in themselves.

What steps did Castro take in an effort to stabilize the Cuban economy and end social unrest.
alekssr [168]
In an effort to stabilize the Cuban economic and social unrest, Castro created a one-party government to exercise dictatorial control over all aspects of Cuba's economic, political and cultural life. Every political dissent were suppressed ruthlessly. At the same time, he expanded the country's social services, extending them to all classes of society on an equal basis. This made educational and health services available to Cubans free of charge, and every citizen was guaranteed employment.
