题目内容
A man enters a store to buy milk. He walks out of the store with milk, That’s all-- milk. At the same time, a woman enters the same store and also buys milk. Besides, she buys chicken to make dinner that night. Then she gets coffee for breakfast and remembers stamps to mail the bills.
And that is the difference between the female and male brains simply explained in a store. Generally speaking, men do one thing at a time while women do many. Doing many things at one time is often called multi-tasking a very popular word these days.
Now scientific research supports this theory about male and female brains. A recent study has proved what we have known all along—men and women think differently.
Last year, some scientists studied brain images of 949 people aged from 8 to 22 years old They found that male brains have more connections only on one side of the brain. In the female brain, they found more activities and connections between the right and left sides of the brain The left side of the brain is known as the side of “reason”. The right one is known as the “creative” side.
Regina Verma, a professor in the brain study, says when women are asked to do something difficult they might use different parts of the brain. Men, she adds, generally use just one side of the brain.
As a result, men generally deal directly with a problem. In fact, there is a strong connection between the “understandings and the “action” parts of men’s brains. Women, however, might include other parts of the brain, like the part connected with reason and the part connected with sensitivity (敏感性) when solving a problem. They take a less direct path to find a solution.
