问题     Women are, on the whole, more verbal than men. They are good at language and verbal reasoning, while men tend to be skilled at tasks demanding visual-spatial abilities. In fact, along with aggression, these are most commonly accepted differences between the sexes.
    Words are tools for communicating with other people, especially information about people.They are mainly social tools. Visual and spatial abilities are good for imagining and manipulating objects and for communicating information about them. Are these talents programmed into the brain? In some of the newest and most controversial research in neurophysiology (神经生理学), it has been suggested that when it comes to the brain, males are specialists while women are generalists.
    But no one knows what, if anything, this means in terms of the abilities of the two sexes. Engineering is both visual and spatial, and it’s true that there are relatively few women engineers. But women become just as skilled as men at shooting a rifle or driving a car, tasks that involve visual-spatial skills. They also do equally well at programming a computer, which is neither visual nor spatial. Women do, however, seem less likely to fall in love with the objects themselves , we all know men for whom machines seem to be extensions of their identity. A woman is most likely to see her car, rifle, or computer as a useful tool, but not in itself fascinating.
According to the passage, women are usually good at______.
选项 A、body language
B、logical reasoning
C、tasks demanding for the use of words
D、both A and B
答案C
解析 本题问按照文章内容，女士通常擅长什么。文章第一段指出，总的说来，女人比男人更具有语言表达能力。她们擅长于语言和语言思考，然而男人则趋于在需要视觉和空间想象能力的任务方面见长。因此，本题的正确答案应是C“擅长做需要运用语言的工作”。
