21、 actor in a favorite movie,for example,is nothing to worry about.But if you forget the plot of the movie or dont remember even seeing it,thats far more concerning,Daffner says.When you forget entire experiences,he says,thats“a red flag that something more serious may be involved”.Forgetting how to o

22、perate a familiar object like a microwave oven,or forgetting how to drive to the house of a friend youve visited many times before can also be signs of something going wrong But even then,Daffner says,people shouldnt panic.There are many things that can cause confusion andmemory loss,including healt

23、h problems like temporary stoppage of breathing during sleep,high blood pressure,or depression,as well as medications(药物)like antidepressants.You dont have to figure this out on your own.Daffner suggests going to your doctor to check on medications,health problems and other issues that could be affe

24、cting memory.And the best defense against memory loss is to try to prevent it by building up your brains cognitive(认知的)reserve,Daffner says.“Read books,go to movies,take on new hobbies or activities that force one to think in novel ways,”he says.In other words,keep your brain busy and working.And al

29、asbeen suggested that girls do not take math courses,not because they are difficult,but for social reasons.Girls do not want to be in open competition with boys because they are afraid to appear less feminine(女性的)and attractive(有魅力的).However,there are still more high-achieving boys than girls when t

30、aking math exams.This difference appears to be worldwide.Biological explanations have been offered for this,but there are other explanations too.Perhaps the difference which comes out during the teenage years has its roots in much earlier experiences.From their first days in kindergarten,boys are en

31、couraged to work on their own and to complete tasks.Facts show that outstanding mathematicians and scientists have not had teachers who gave answers.Besides,there can be little doubt that teachers of math and science expect their boy students to do better at these subjects than their girl students.T

32、hey even appear to encourage the difference between boys and girls.They spend more time with the boy students,giving them more time to answer questions and working harder to get correct answers from them.They are more likely to call on boys for answers and to allow them to take the lead in classroom
