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 the 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, 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 more likely to see her car, rifle, or computer as a useful tool, but not in itself fascinating.

Passage One
The law says that women should have the chance of doing the same jobs as men and earn the same as them.
The reality is very different.Women lose because, 25 years after the Equal Pay Act,many of them still get paid less than men.
They lose because they do lower-paid jobs which men just won't consider.And they lose because they are the ones who interrupt a career to have children.
All this is reported in an independent study ordered by the Government's Women's Unite.
The biggest problem isn't equal pay in workplaces such as factories.It is a sort of work women do.Make a list of the low-paid jobs, then consider who do them.
Try nurses, secretaries, cleaners, clerks, teachers in primary schools, dinner ladies,and child care helpers. Not a lot of men among that group, are there?
Yet some of those jobs are really important.Surely no one would deny that about nurses and teachers, for a start.
So why do we reward the people who do them so poorly? There can be only one answer—because they are women.
This is not going to be put right overnight. But the Government which employs a lot of them, and other bosses have to make a start.
It is disgraceful(可耻的) that we have gone into the 21st century but still treat women as second-class citizens.
Women should have the chance of doing the same jobs and be paid equally as Men( ).
A. after 25 years
B. according to the law
C. as a result of the Equal Pay Act
D. because women are as strong as men
