【正确答案】 B

【答案解析】[解析] 14-16
A study of 2000 adults found while most men can comfortably "drive" a string of household electrical gadgets, a few of them regularly prove to be a step too far.
A quarter of men admitted they had no idea how to use their washing machine and a similar amount didn't know how to use the oven.
Women on the other hand are more likely to struggle with turning off their children's games machine and getting their smart phone or MP3 player to work.
Researcher Deborah Risbridger said, "Women have no problem using appliances in the kitchen, but men seem to be far more interested in hand held gadgetry and as a result master new technology with excitement and ease. "
The study showed that men are normally too proud to ask their partner for help and instead are more likely to hit something or break something.
Women on the other hand are happier to leave it to their partner to master the more complicated household gadgets or just give up entirely.
While women happily admit they aren't always up to speed with electronic household goods, they are more likely to turn to the instruction manual than men, who research them without reading the user's guide.
It also showed that the average adult meets difficulty at least once every day in technology, with one in six seeking help twice a day. And typically around six minutes of the day is wasted trying to get to grips with gadgets around the house.
Deborah Risbridger advised, "Six minutes a day spent struggling with technology equates to one and half days a year. Consumers may benefit by looking for products that offer very simple programming to avoid this waste of time. /
