In your opinion are boys better at building things? If your answer to each of those questions is Yes, you are right according to an article in Current Science. There are exceptions but here are the facts.Usually boys score higher on tests about math while girls do better in tests about words spelling and memory. But these differences may not always be true. In the future, a persons abilities may not be decided by sex. As one scientist says Nothing is impossible for a person to be or do.A recent study by Jerome Kagan, a scientist at Harward University, is studying the watching ability of children 10 months old. Baby boys and baby girls are watching a show while seated on their mothers laps. In Act One of the show an orange-coloured hall is lifted from a blue box and moved slowly. Then it is returned to the box. This is repeated six times. Act Six is almost the same except that the orange ball is smaller.Baby boys do not seem to notice the difference in the size of the ball but girls immediately become excited and begin to make noises that sound like language.Its also known that baby girls usually talk at an earlier age than baby boys do. Scientists believe that the left side of the brain develops faster in girls than in boys. As a result by the time they start to school little girls have an advantage that boys dont have but what have the boys been doing in the year before starting school? They have been developing something called aggression.An aggressive person feels strong and independent (独立的). He is often the first one to start a fight. It is said that aggression is caused by hormones(荷尔蒙). Scientists believe that hormones are not the only cause. They say aggression in boys is also caused by mothers.（1）According to the article in Current Science, what are girls better at? A . Finding facts.B . Using language.C . Learning science.D . Building things.（2）Which is RIGHT about Jerome Kagans study? A . Girls dont like the show.B . Boys are strong enough to lift a blue box-C . Boys and girls have the same watching abilities.D . Girls quickly notice the difference in the size of the ball.（3）Why do girls have an advantage when they start to school? A . Girls become independent earlier.B . Mothers teach girls more patiently.C . Girls hormones develop more completely.D . The left side of the brain develops faster in girls.（4）What is the passage mainly about? A . The research on girls advantages.B . The result of school education.C . The differences between boys and girls.D . The childrens abilities to memorize.13. （10分） A Gold Cup for an OrangeThere is a poor man. He has an orange tree. On the tree, there are many fine oranges. One of them is very, very big.
