In the past, after people finished their workdays, it was still      4     and they didn’t have too many other activities to do,      5     they spent their free time doing some repairs and many women used to make     6     (most of them didn’t even have a job). Nowadays,      7     , a large number of women work and both men and women have to      8     the pressures of work and they usually work      9     hours, so they have little time to do repairs or make clothes themselves.
