题目内容
A man enters a store to buy milk. He walks out of the store with milk. That is all―milk. At the same time,a woman enters the same grocery store also to buy milk.
She buys it. But,she also buys chicken and lemons to make dinner that night. Then she remembers to buy food for her son to eat at school. She also gets a bottle of wine for drinks with friends and a birthday card for her husband's niece.
And that is the difference between the female and male brains. It is simply explained in a grocery store.
Generally speaking,men do one thing at a time. Women do many. Doing many things at a time is often called "multitasking," a very popular word these days.
A recent study has proved what we have known all along―men and women think differently. Scientists at the University of Pennsylvania studied brain pictures of 949 people aged from 8to 22 years old. They found that male brains have more connections on one side of the brain. In the female brains,they found more activity and connec?tions 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 is a professor at the University of Pennsylvania. She cowrote the report. She 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 prob?lem. Women,however,might include other parts of the brain,like the part connected with reason and the part connected with sensitivity (敏感) when solving a problem.'
Women take a less direct path to find a solution.
