People usually think that boys are stronger, heavier and taller than girls. Maybe it's true. Some people even think that boys are smarter than girls. Expert's view: I can't agree with them. If you say that girls learn faster than boys, you may be right, at least when it comes to young chimps(猩猩)using tools. People
found that girl chimps in Tanzania, East Africa, use sticks to find tasty insects(昆虫)two years earlier
than boy chimps. This is because young girl chimps watch their moms collect bugs, while the boy chimps climbtrees.But young boy chimps may hunt and throw(扔)sooner than girl chimps.It's also true for humans. It's easier for girls to learn to write and draw earlier, but boys often run and throw balls earlier than girls.
Teacher's view: I think boys and girls both have their special advantages. Boys are good at sports. They are very athletic. But girls do well in performance. They are very calm.
