Did you know that women’s brains are smaller than men’s?The average women’s brain weighs 10% less than men’s.Since research has shown that the bigger the brain,the cleverer the animal,men must be more intelligent than women.Right?Wrong.Men and women always score similarly on intelligence tests,despite the difference in brain size.Why?After years of study,researchers have concluded that it’s what’s inside that matters,not just the size of the brain.The brain consists of “grey matter” and “white matter”.While men have more of the latter,the amount of “thinking” brain is almost exactly the same in both sexes.
It has been suggested that smaller brain appears to work faster,perhaps because the two sides of the brain are better connected in women.This means that little girls tend to learn to speak earlier,and that women can understand sorts of information from different sources at the same time.When it comes to talking to the boss on the phone,cooking dinner and keeping an eye on the baby all at the same time,it’s women who come out on top every time.
There are other important differences between two sexes.As “white matter” is the key to spatial(空间的) tasks,men know better where things are in relation to other things.“A great footballer always knows where he is in relation to the other players,and he knows where to go,” says one researcher.That may explain one of
