[1]If you can’t find your keys , ask a woman.It’s reported that females are better than males at multitasking, particularly if those tasks include searching for lost items, for example , the car keys.

[2]Researchers carried out two experiments, in which men and women have to juggle(同时做)several tasks.Examples of this include working in a busy office or cooking several dishes at once for a meal.In the first battle of the sexes , the volunteers played a computer game that required rapid changes of attention.Both sexes slowed down , but the women slowed less.This suggests that they found multitasking easier.

[3]In the second experiment , volunteers were given 8 minutes to complete a set of sums , search for restaurants on a map and work out the route they would take to search for a set of keys lost in a field.The two sexes did well on all the tasks, but the key hunt — in which the searches planned by the women were judged to be clearly superior.When it is the only thing to be done, both sexes are equally good at it.It showed that men’s ability to plan a search for lost keys breaks down, when put under the pressure of multitasking.The results suggest that women are better at multitasking than men.

[4] Women’s advantage at doing tasks has its roots in evolution.In the Stone Age , men could probably go out and hunt for food , while the women stayed at home and multi-tasked.They were always looking out for their children , as well as doing other things , like gathering fruits and doing mending and making stone tools.Men probably have somewhat more of a one-track mind.

People aren’t walking any more---if they can figure out a way to avoid it.

I felt superior about this matter until the other day I took my car to mail a small parcel.The journey is a matter of 281 steps.But I used the car.And I wasn’t in any hurry, either, I had merely become one more victim of a national sickness: motorosis.

It is an illness to which I had thought myself immune(免疫的), for I was bred in the tradition of going to places on my own two legs.At that time, we regarded 25 miles as good day’s walk and the ability to cover such a distance in ten hours as sign of strength and skill.It did not occur to us that walking was a hardship.And the effect was lasting.When I was 45 years old I raced –and beat—a teenage football player the 168 steps up the Stature of Liberty.

Such enterprises today are regarded by many middle-aged persons as bad for the heart.But a well-known British physician, Sir Adolphe Abrhams, pointed out recently that hearts and bodies need proper exercises.A person who avoids exercise is more likely to have illnesses than one who exercises regularly.And walking is an ideal form of exercise--- the most familiar and natural of all.

It was Henry Thoreau who showed mankind the richness of going on foot.The man walking can learn the trees, flower, insects, birds and animals, the significance of seasons, the very feel of himself as a living creature in a living world, He cannot learn in a car.

The car is a convenient means of transport, but we have made it our way of life.Many people don’t dare to approach nature any more; to them the world they were born to enjoy is all threat.To them security is a steel river thundering on a concrete road.And much of their thinking takes place while waiting for the traffic light to turn green.

I say that the green of forests is the mind’s best light.And none but the man on foot can evaluate what is basic and everlasting.
