11、考查文章的写作目的。本文第二段就揭示了为什么男性听不进去女性的话的原因,文章后面的内容对此进行了阐述。故答案为B。2、答案解析:答案为C。本题为推理题。由第三段的内容可知,男性在听同性的话语的时候只是用了大脑的前面区域;然而听女性的话语的时候,却更费力,因为要使用通常用来听音乐的那部分的大脑区域。故可推断,男性不听女性的话是因为他们大脑不能非常容易地处理女性的声音。故答案为C。干扰性最强的D选项 “他们把女性的声音当成音乐” 与文意不符。故错误。3、答案解析:答案为B。本题为句意推断题。结合第五段的内容,作者以女性的口吻谈到如果她早意识到她是因为 “音乐”而被男人倾听,她会为此而感到些许开怀。
