Ⅴ.阅读理解
In
the
past
ten
years,many
scientists
have
studied
the
differences
between
men
and
women.And
they
all
got
the
same
answer:The
sexes
are
different,because
their
brains
are
different.And
this,the
scientists
say,makes
men
and
women
see
the
world
in
different
ways.
Boys,for
example,generally
are
better
than
girls
at
mathematical
ideas.Boys
also
generally
are
better
than
girls
at
the
kind
of
hand
and
eye
movements
necessary
for
ball
sports.Girls,on
the
other
hand,generally
start
speaking
earlier
than
boys.And
they
generally
see
better
in
the
dark
than
boys
and
are
better
at
learning
foreign
languages.
What
makes
men
and
women
better
at
one
thing
or
another?The
answer
is
the
brain.The
brain
has
two
sides
connected
by
nerve
tracks.The
left
side
generally
is
used
for
mathematics,speech
and
writing.The
right
side
is
used
for
artistic
creation
and
the
expression
for
emotions.In
men
and
women,different
areas
in
each
side
of
the
brain
develop
differently.In
boys,for
example,it's
the
area
used
for
mathematics.In
girls,it
is
the
area
used
for
language
skills.Another
interesting
difference
is
that
the
two
sides
of
a
man's
brain
are
connected
by
smaller
nerves
than
the
two
sides
of
a
woman's
brain
are.
