The passage above is probably_ .Aa piece of newsBa novelCa storyDan advertisementA myth is something that is not correct, but many people believe. There are a lot of myths about the human brain.One of the biggest myths is that we only use 10 percent of our brains. The next part of the myth is that if we can learn to use the rest of our brains, then well be much smarter. People say this all the time, but its absolutely not true! The truth is that although we dont know everything about the human brain, we know that each part of it has an important function (功能) . Modern scientists think the 10 percent myth ridiculous (荒谬的) . The other most popular myth is about being right brained or left brained. According to this myth, people who use the right side of their brains are more artistic and creative. People who use the left side of their brains are better at math and science. This is as popular as the 10 percent myth, and its also wrong. In 2013, a study at an American university examined the right brain and left brain myth. According to the study, we use both sides of our brains equally (相等地). Its true that we use different parts of our brains for different things. We use our left side for language more, and our right side when we need to pay attention. But there is no evidence (证据) that creative people use the right side more or that scientific people use the left side more.Weve talked about myths, so lets look at a few interesting facts about the brain. First of all, the brain feels no pain. Second, about 75 percent of the brain is made of water. Its also the fattest organ in your body. Heres another interesting fact about the brain. Around the time you turn 18 years old, it stops growing.29 .
