单选题 Why are women much better at dealing with more than one thing at a time, but men are not as good?
【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】[听力原文] 18-20 M: Do you think women are naturally better at certain things than men? W: Well, it seems to me women are much better at dealing with more than one thing at a time. I don't know whether this has to do with the difference in their brain or whether it's just how they have to cope more often with more than one thing. For example, it is usually women who work, have babies, look after the babies and take the main responsibility for looking after the home. And maybe it's practicing all that that makes women better able to do more than one thing at a time. Men, it seems to me, can only concentrate on one thing at a time, including boring domestic things like washing the dishes. If a friend of mine who is a man washes the dishes, he'll find it quite difficult to conduct a conversation at the same time, whereas if I'm doing the dishes, I'm always talking to someone, probably cooking something as well, and finding that not too stressful. M: Do you think women are more interested in personal relationships than men? W: Generally, yes, though again I don't know if this is because from an early age they are taught to please other people, whereas men are taught to please themselves. I think relationships are more central to most women's lives. For example, I think men don't have very good conversations with each other, whereas women do. If you listen to women talking, often they will be having, after a relatively short time of knowing eachother, fairly personal and truthful conversations, whereas men have conversations not about what I'd call real things. They will talk about their work in a very superficial way, or their interests in a very superficial way, for example, and football is the — um —just a sort of way for men to relate to each other without actually saying anything important, it seems to me.
