  第一篇

  Two People, Two Paths

  You must be familiar with the situation: Dads driving; Mums telling him where to go. Hes sure that they need to turn left. But she says its not for another two blocks. Who has the better sense of direction? Men or women.

  They both do, a new study says, but in different ways.

  Men and women, Canadian researchers have found, have different methods of finding their way. Men look quickly at landmarks and head off in what they think is the right direction. Women, however, try to picture the whole route in detail and then follow the path in their head.

  Women tend to be more detailed, said Edward Cornell, who led the study, while

  men tend to be a little bit faster and...a little bit more intuitive .

  In fact, said Cornell, sense of direction isnt one skill but two.

  The first is the survey method. This is when you see an area from above, such as a printed map. You can see, for example, where the hospital is, where the church is and that the supermarket is on its right.

  The second skill is the route method. This is when you use a series of directions. You start from the hospital, then turn left, turn right, go uphill -- and then you see the supermarket.
