问题     After 20 years of marriage, a husband may still not understand his wife. How is it that she is never at a【C1】______for words? How can she【C2】______the names of a couple they met on【C3】______years ago? Now we know【C4】______to tell him: it’s her brain.
    Although there are obviously cultural【C5】______for the differences in emotions and behavior,【C6】______breakthrough research reveals that the【C7】______of many puzzling differences between men and women may【C8】______in the head. Men’s and women’s brains【C9】______much in common, but they are definitely not the same【C10】______size, structure or insight. Broadly speaking, a woman’s brain, like her body, is ten to fifteen per cent smaller than a man’s,【C11】______the regions dedicated to language may be more densely【C12】______with brain ceils.
    Girls generally speak earlier and read faster. The reason may be【C13】______females use both sides of the brain when they read. In【C14】______, males rely only on the left side.
    At every age, women’s memories【C15】______men’s. They have a greater ability to【C16】______  names with faces than men do, and they are【C17】______at recalling list. The events people re- member best are those that an emotion is attached to.【C18】______women use more of their right brains, which【C19】______emotions, they may do this automatically.
    While we don’t yet know what all these findings imply, one thing is【C20】______: male and female brains do the same things, but they do them differently.
【C14】
选项 A、fact
B、contrast
C、addition
D、consequence
答案B
解析 由前一句“use both sides of the brain"可知，女性阅读时是左右脑都用上了。由下一句"only on the left side"可知，男人只用左脑，前后句构成相反的对比的关系，选项in contrast意为“相反”，符合文意；in fact意为“实际上”；in addition意为“此外”；in consequence意为“因而，由于……”的缘故。故选B。
