Are you ready for the coming festive season? What gifts will you give to make your friends feel special? Here teenagers share their ideas for gifts and look forward to the ones they'll get.

Hu Ziwei, 15, Nanjing Foreign Language School

My class will have a gift exchange party, during which we will put on a small talent show. Many of us had our gifts ready a week ago. I believe that the boys will give magic tools, stationary （文具） or sweets, while girls are likely to give dolls or mobile accessories （挂件）.

The biggest fun about these parties is not knowing from whom you'll receive a gift and who will receive your gifts. The computer will decide everything! Our teacher hopes the activity will help us get to know each other better – you see, we've only known each other for three months. I'm looking forward to my surprise gift!

Liu Wei, 17,Beijing No 8 High School

Although my birthday was in November, I'll get a special birthday gift from my classmates this week. A．collective （集体的） birthday party is scheduled for all the students who had birthdays fall in the last six months.

My classroom has been decorated with colorful ribbons and Christmas balls. Someone told me that there will be a huge birthday cake and that a personalized gift sent with best wishes from other students is being prepared for each birthday student. I'm sure we will treasure this event and I'm so looking forward to the big moment!

Yin Zhaohua, 19, Jixi No 1 High School in Heilongjiang

I'm still enjoying the gifts I received on Christmas Eve. Nowadays traditional greeting cards are being replaced with apples and sweets, which symbolize （象征） hope for the year ahead. I got more than 20 apples this Christmas, which means I sent a similar number of apples out. I think apples are healthier, more environmentally and friendly gifts than cards sent through the post.

Wu Shang, 16, Mianyang High School in Sichuan

These last two weeks have been filled with every kind of exam so the atmosphere（气氛） on campus is not at all like a holiday. I miss the days when I got handwritten cards.

In fact, I haven't received or sent holiday cards since the Internet became popular. It's so fast and easy to send an e-card. Also, text messages are fun and convenient （方便的）. I'll send warm hugs to my best friends on New Year's D．ay to let them know that I'll be always there for them.

　　Do you know that women’s brains are smaller than men’s?Normally the women’s brain weighs 10％ less than men’s．Since research has shown that the bigger the brain, the cleverer the animal, men must be more intelligent(聪明的)than women．Right? Wrong．Men and women always score similarly on intelligence tests, despite the difference in brain size．Why? After years of study, researchers have concluded that it’s what’s inside that matters, not just the size of the brain．The brain is made up of “grey matter” and “white matter”．While men have more of the white matter, the amount(数量)of “thinking” brain is almost the same in both men and women．

　　It has been suggested that smaller brain appears to work faster, perhaps because the two sides of the brain are better connected in women．This means that little girls may learn to speak earlier, and that women can understand sorts of different information at the same time．When it comes to talking to the boss on the phone, cooking dinner and keeping an eye on the baby all at the same time, it’s women who come out on top every time．

　　There are other important differences between two sexes(性别)．As white matter is the key to spatial(空间的)tasks, men know better where things are in relation to other things．“A great footballer always knows where he is in relation to the other players, and he knows where to go,” says one researcher．That may explain one of life’s great mysteries：why men refuse to ask for directions … and women often need to!

　　The differences begin when fetuses(胎儿)are about nine weeks old, which can be seen in the action of children when they are very young．A boy would try to climb a barrier before him or push it down while a girl would ask for help from others．These brain differences also explain the fact that more men take up jobs that require good spatial skills, while more women speech skills．It may all go back to our ancestors, among whom women needed speech skills to take care of their babies and men needed spatial skills to hunt, according to one research．

(1)

Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 1?
[　　]
A．	Grey matter controls thinking in the brain．
B．	Men’s brain is 10％ less than women’s．
C．	Grey matter plays the same role as white matter．
D．	Men and women have the same amount of white matter．

(2)

What can you infer from Paragraphs 2 and 3?
[　　]
A．	Men have weaker spatial abilities．
B．	Women do not need to tell directions．
C．	Women prefer doing many things at a time．
D．	Women do many jobs at a time better than men．

(3)

What can you learn from Paragraph 4?
[　　]
A．	Our children needed more spatial skills．
B．	Women may have more feelings than men．
C．	Young boys may be stronger than young girls．
D．	More women take up jobs requiring speech skills．

(4)

The passage is mainly about ________．
[　　]
A．	ways of being more intelligent
B．	differences between men and women
C．	studies on brains between two sexes
D．	studies on white matter and grey matter
