【答案解析】[听力原文] M: This is the Health Report. You probably find this story familiar. 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. W: Yes, I've heard about the story. It suggests the difference between the female and male brains. Generally speaking, men do one thing at a time. Women do many. Doing many things at one time is often called "multi-tasking", a very popular word these days. M: But do you think that differences really exist? Is there any scientific evidence for that? W: Yes. Now scientific research supports this theory about male and female brains. A recent study has confirmed what we have known all along—men and women think differently. Scientists at the University of Pennsylvania studied brain images of 949 people aged from eight to 22 years old. M: What did these scientists find? W: They found that male brains have more connections on one side of the brain, or hemisphere. In the female brain, they found more activity and connections between the right and left sides of the brain. The left side of the brain is known as the side of "reason." The right hemisphere is known as the "creative" side. M: So that means when women are asked to do something difficult they might use different parts of the brain while men generally use just one side of the brain. M: Right. Therefore, women take a less direct path to find a solution because they might include other parts of the brain, like the part connected with reason and the part connected with sensitivity when solving a problem.
