阅读下列各小题，根据汉语提示，用句末括号内的英语单词完成句子，并将答案写在答题卡上的相应题号后。

Overall, gender（性别）differences in math tend to be small. Statements like“Boys do better than girls in math”should not be read as one that all boys perform better than all girls in math.In some recent studies almost no differences have been found. For example, in the national Assessment of Educational Progress study, there were no great difference in the average scores of eighth and twelfth grade boys and girls.     

As a math teacher, I hope to do everything in my power to encourage girls to have more confidence in math. Of course I want every girl and boy in my class to see that they can succeed in math .I do not allow boys monopolize（垄断）the answering of questions in my classroom. I call on girls and boys equally and I don’t let any student get away by saying” I don’t know” or by shrugging their shoulders. I will guide students to a solution.     

In one project I assign to my 8th grade algebra（几何）students, they have to research a mathematician and report to the class. I encourage as many students as possible, boys and girls, to research some of the famous female mathematicians. When the girls see how much women had to do to study mathematics years ago, it helps them to see how fortunate their opportunities are today. In this way I provide girls with positive math experiences.

　　I have a rule for travel： Never carry a map． I prefer to ask for directions (方向)．

　　Foreign visitors are often puzzled in Japan because most streets there don’t have names． In Japan, people use landmarks in their directions instead of street names． For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, “Go straight down to the corner． Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market． The post office is across from the bus stop．”

　　In the countryside of the American Midwest, usually there are not many landmarks． There are no mountains, so the land is very flat (平坦的)． In many places there are no towns or buildings within miles． Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distance． In Kansas or Iowa, for example, people will say, “Go north two miles． Turn east, and then go another mile． ”

　　People in Los Angeles , California, have no idea of distance on the map：They measure distance by means of time, not miles． “How far away is the post office?” you ask． “Oh,” they answer, “It's about five minutes from here． you say, ”Yes, but how many miles away is it? They don't know．

　　People in Greece sometimes do not even try to give directions because visitors seldom under-stand the Greek language． Instead of giving you the direction, a Greek will often say, “Follow me． ” Then he'll lead you through the streets of the city to the post office．

　　Sometimes a person doesn't know the answer to your question． What happens in this situation? A New Yorker might say, “Sorry, I have no idea． ” But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers, “ I don’t know． ” People in Yucatan think that “ I don’t know” is impolite． They usually give an answer, often a wrong one． A visitor can get very, very lost in Yucatan!

　　One thing will help you everywhere-in Japan, in the United States． In Greece, in Mexico, or in any other place． You might not understand a person’s words , but maybe you can understand his body language． He or she will usually turn and then point in the correct direction． Go in that direction, and you may find the post office!
