我的腦筋比你好雙語美文

　　男生跟女生有什麼差別嗎?除了生理上的，那麼這篇文章會告訴你答案。接下來，小編給大家準備了,歡迎大家參考與借鑑。

　　1. It's an 1age-old 2dispute: Men are from Mars. Women are from Venus. 3Males and 4females show different behaviors almost from birth. Researchers say these behaviors 5are due to basic differences in brain structure and activity. Studies show men are better at hitting 6targets and 7solving math problems while women are better at 8memorizing words and 9recognizing faces. Why the difference?.

　　這是一個自古就存在的爭論：男人來自火星，女人來自金星。男人和女人幾乎自出生起就有不同的行為。研?a href='//' target='_blank'>咳嗽北硎荊?廡┬形?怯?a href='//' target='_blank'>大腦結構和大腦活動的基本差異所引起的。研究顯示男人較擅於射中標靶和解決數學問題，而女人則比較擅長記憶文字和辨識臉孔。為什麼會有這種差異呢?

　　2. A test of the brain's electrical activity EEG shows that women commonly use both sides of their brain while men rely more on one. Scientists already know that the two sides of the brain control different functions-one controlling the sense of space, for example, the other controlling language. Some researchers believe that the different ways men and women use their brains 1evolved from ancient times, when cave men hunted and women cared for the children. Men had to have good aim. Women had to talk to the kids.

　　檢驗大腦的電流活動腦波圖顯示，女人通常是左右腦並用，而男人則比較常使用一邊的大腦。科學家已經知道左右兩邊的大腦掌管不同的功能--例如一邊掌管空間感，另一邊掌管語言。有些研究人員相信，男女使用大腦方式的差異從遠古時代演化而來，當時穴居的男人負責狩獵，女人則負責照顧小孩。所以男人必須擅長瞄準，女人則必須和小孩說話。

　　2.1 evolve v. 演化，逐步形成

　　3. Whatever the explanation, the 1battle of the sexes continues. And although their brains are 2constructed slightly differently, men and women may be equally 3capable. They may simply 4rely on different abilities. 5Take a couple 6arguing over the 7location of their car in a parking lot. The man might use his sense of space to find it, while the woman relies on her recognition of 8landmarks. They both find the car. But 9chances are, they'll still argue about who's the better driver and who's better at finding the way home.

　　無論是何種解釋，兩性之間的戰爭仍在進行中。而且雖然他們的大腦構造稍有不同，但男人和女人的能力可能是一樣強的。他們只是仰賴不同的能力而已。例如，一對男女在為他們的車子停在停車場的哪個位置而爭吵，這位男士可能會運用他的空間感來找車子，女士則可能會依靠辨認地標。兩人都能找到車子。但很有可能，他們還是會爭論誰的駕駛技術比較好、誰比較善於找到回家的路。

　　3.1 battle n. 戰鬥 2 construct v. 建造 3 capable a. 有能力的 4 rely on v. 依賴 5 take ... 拿……為例 6 argue v. 爭論 7 location n. 地點，位置 8 landmark n. 地標 9 chances are ... 很有可能……
