They Just Can't Help It My theory is that the female brain is mainly built for empathy — the ability to understand other people — and that the male brain is mainly built for building systems．____ For example，women are more likely to read magazines on fashion and parenting，while men will choose magazines that feature computers and sport．

You may think that these preferences are influenced by the way people are taught to behave when they are growing up．However，this is not the case．A new study carried out at Cambridge University shows that newborn girls look longer at a face，and newborn boys look longer at a mobile．【1】____ It has also been observed (that girls are better at noticing signs of changes in other people's feelings．Boys，however，seem to enjoy building toy towers and playing with toys which have clear functions．【2】____ People whose jobs are in the construction industries are almost male．Math and engineering，which require high levels of systems-thinking，are also male-chosen disciplines．Why do men and women have the difference? Actually women have four times as many brain neurons (神經(jīng)) that connect the right and left part of their brains．Because of it，women have a better ability to multitask than men．【3】____ Men tend to focus on a limited number of problems at a time．They will separate themselves from problems and view tasks as independent from one another．

Some people may worry that I am suggesting one gender (性別) is better than the other，but this is not the case．My theory says that males and females differ in the kinds of things that they find easy，but that both genders have their strengths and weaknesses．_【4】_ It is not true．The study simply looks at males and females as two groups，and asks what differences exist，and why they are there．

A．Generally speaking，there are clear differences．

B．Their preference for building systems may change over time．

C．You can see the same kind of pattern in the adult workplace．

D．They will consider many sources of information at the same time．

E．It is important to stress that the female brain may be built more for empathy．

F．That suggests certain differences between male and female brains are biological．

G．Others may think the theory creates a belief of what a particular type of person is like．

試題解析：本次七選五依然為�？嫉恼f明文，題目”They Just Can’t Help It”，由我的觀點入手，說明男性與女性頭腦用途取向不同，并用男性與女性雜志的選擇性不同作例子。進而第二段先提出觀點差異由后天培養(yǎng)造成，后文話鋒一轉，提出男性女性差異是先天生理決定的。第三段進一步說明差異的原因：女性左右腦連接神經(jīng)是男性的四倍。結尾客觀說明我的觀點闡述男性與女性差異各有優(yōu)缺點。文章結構清晰，干擾選項較易排除，整體難度不大。

【1】前文敘述男女大腦用途不同，且根據(jù)后文提示，F(xiàn)or example 的提示，舉例說男性與女性在選擇雜志上的區(qū)別，故此處應為一個總起性質的句子，強調區(qū)別。

【2】第二段總起的觀點為男性與女性在選擇上的差異是后天培養(yǎng)的，However 話鋒一轉，說新生兒在選擇上的差異，因此提出新的觀點“暗示男性與女性選擇上的差異是天生的，即為生理差異決定的�！�

【3】前文提及男孩對搭建玩具塔樓以及功能性較強的玩具有強烈的傾向，后文說建筑類工作多為男性，故前后文都是描述男性相同的選擇傾向，只是發(fā)生的年齡和場所不同，故選擇C。

【4】前文提及女性更具有同時從事多個任務的能力，與D 選項many sources及at the same time 呼應。

【5】前文提到my theory “男性與女性各有優(yōu)缺點”，后文說“it is not true”，故此處引出一個容易誤解的觀點。G 選項提及的theory，且這里的觀點認為“我的觀點會讓男性女性模式化，故選擇G。
