Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate
the correct answer to each of the following questions.
Who talk more – men or women? Most people believe that women talk more. However,
linguist Deborah Tannen, who has studied the communication style of men and women, says that
this is a stereotype. According to Tannen, women are more verbal – talk more in private
situations, where they use conversation as the “glue” to hold relationships together. But, she says,
men talk more in public situations, where they use conversation to exchange information and gain
status. Tannen points out that we can see these differences even in children. Little girls often play
with one “best friend”, their play includes a lot of conversation. Little boys often play games in
groups; their play usually involves more doing than talking. In school, girls are often better at
verbal skills, boys are often better at mathematics.
A recent study at Emory University helps to shed light on the roots of this difference.
Researchers studied conversation between children age 3-6 and their parents. They found
evidence that parents talk very differently to their sons than they do to their daughters. The
startling conclusion was that parents use more language with their girls. Specifically, when
parents talk with their daughters, they use more descriptive language and more details. There is
also far more talk about emotions, especially sadness, with daughters than with sons.
