They believe that nerves in the left side of the brain develop faster in girls than in boys. And it is this side of the (48) that strongly influences an individual’s ability to use words, to spell, and to remember things.
By the time they start to school, therefore, little girls have an advantage that boys do not have. Girls are physically more ready to (49) facts, to spell, and to read. These, of course, are (50) that are important in elementary school.
