19．Recently，educators and parents become concerned about the poor performance of boys in school．The so-called"boy crisis"in education refers （61）to both their academic performance and their behavior．In both areas boys'results are much （62）worse（bad） than girls'．
USA data shows that the boys rank behind girls in almost all areas of schooling．They earn lower（63）grades（grade） overall in primary school and high school．They are behind girls in reading and writing，and 30percent of （64）them are in bottom quarter of standardized tests，（65）compared（compare） with 19percent of girls．
Although the causes of the"boy crisis"are not （66）fully（full） understood，some experts believed that the same-sex classrooms and schools may help solve the problem．The idea is （67）to remove（remove） some of the distractions（分心） caused by the opposite sex，in order to improve students'concentration and hopefully their grades．The first Chinese school to experiment with this idea （68）is（be） the Shanghai No.8Middle School，（69）which began"boys-only"classes in September，2012．Although it is too early to tell if the reform has made a difference，its supporters argue that the results are（70）promising（ promise）．

5．Why do men die earlier than women？The latest research makes it known that the reason could be that men's hearts go into rapid decline when they reach middle age．
The largest study of the effects of ageing on the heart has found that women's longevity may be linked to the fact that their hearts hardly lose their pumping power with age．
"We have found that the power of the male heart falls by 20-25percent between 18and 70years of age．"said the head of the study，David Goldspink of Liverpool John Moores University in the UK．"Within the heart there are millions of cells that enable it to beat．Between the age of 20and 70．one-third of those cells die and are not replaced in men，"said Goldspink．"This is part of the ageing process．"
What surprises scientists is that the female heart sees very little loss of these cells．A healthy 70-year-old woman's heart could perform almost as well as a 20-year-old one's．
"This gender（性别）difference might just explain why women live longer than men，"said Goldspink．
They studied more than 250healthy men and women between the ages of 18and 80，focusing on heahhy persons to remove the confusing influence of disease．
The team has yet to find why ageing takes a greater loss on the male heart，said Goldspink．
The good news is that men can improve the health of their heart with regular exercise．Goldspink stressed that women also need regular exercise to prevent their leg muscles becoming smaller and weaker as they age．
