Do you believe that only boys do well in science? Does it seem to you that (31) have better vocabularies than boys? (32) your opinion, are boys better at building thins? If your answer to each of those questions is "Yes", you (33) right, according to an article in Current Science. There are exceptions, but here are the facts.

(35) show superior ability in tests measuring vocabulary, spelling, and memory. But these (36) will probably not always exist. In the future, a person’s abilities may not be determined (37) sex.

The (41), while seated on it mother’s lap, watches a "show" on a small theater stage.
In Act One of the show, an orange-colored block is lifted from blue box and moved slowly across the stage. Then (42) is returned to the box. This is repeated six times.

It is (45) that bones, muscles, and nerves develop faster in baby girls. Usually, too, baby girls talk (46) an earlier age than boys do. Scientists think there is a physical reason (47) this. 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.
