Unit 1: Brave New World (1ère AMC)

 A Booming Business

The document under study is an extract from an article published in the Guardian in December 2009. It is about the story of Sarita, an Indian woman who is 26 years old. We have learned that she comes from a poor family background, in fact, her parents were farmers and at the age of 16, she had to go through an arranged marriage and married a man, whose name was Ramesh, who was 15 older than her. Her dreams were to go to the university in order to become a teacher. Nevertheless, her husband earns a low income and as a family, they still live in poverty. Therefore, in order to change their situation, she decided to become a surrogate mother in order to earn more money to live in better conditions and to give her children a better life.

We will continue the study of the text next week. Be ready!
