男孩和女孩以不同的方式看待世界
男孩和女孩以不同的方式看待世界

Scientists have studied the differences between boys and girls. And they all got the same answer: their brains are different, which makes boys and girls see the world in different ways.
Boys generally are better than girls at mathematical ideas. Boys also generally are better than girls for some sports. On the other hand, girls generally start speaking earlier than boys. And they generally are better at learning foreign languages.
What makes boys and girls better at one thing or another? The answer is the brain. The brain has two sides connected by nerve tracks. The left side generally is used for mathematics, speech and writing. The right side is used for artistic creation and the expression for emotions. In boys and girls, different areas in each side of the brain develop differently. In boys, for example, it’s the area used for mathematics. In girls, it is the area used for language skills. Another interesting difference is that the two sides of a boy’s brain are connected by a smaller nerves than the two sides of a girl’s brain are.
