27、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 (地标 ) and head off in what they think is the right direction
28、. 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(直觉感知的 ). “ In fact, said Cornell, “sense of direction“
29、 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.

30、ies of directions. Yon start from the hospital, then turn left, turn right, go uphill, and then you see the supermarket. Men are more likely to use the survey method while women are more likely to use one route and follow directions. Both work and neither is better. Some scientists insist that these
31、 different skills have a long history. They argue it is because of the difference in traditional roles. In ancient times, young men often went far away with the older men to fish or hunt. The trip took hours or days and covered unfamiliar places. The only way to know where you were was to use the su
32、rvey method to remember landmarks the mountains, the lakes and so on. The women, on the other hand, took young girls out to find fruits and plants.

Held in Rio de Janeiro, the countrys biggest city, the carnival began on February 20 when the mayo
36、r gave key of the city to Rei Momo the Lord of Misrule (无序之皇 ). On his orders, each year people turn the city into a paradise of dance and music. The following six days are so fun of parades, street dancing, fantastic clothes and partying (聚会 ) that many people forget about eating and sleeping. “It
37、was the passion of the carnival that attracted me to Brazil and made me settle down in Rio. “ said Bob Nadkami, a British man who has lived in the city for several years. For many Brazilians, the centerpiece of the carnival is samba (桑巴舞 ), a typical Brazilian dance. Every year, tens of thousands of
38、 visitors and locals show off their passion and energy in the streets, following the beat (节拍 ) of the Latin music. The climax to this street party is the float (彩车 ) parade, in which floats decorated with tons of fresh flowers by various samba schools and local communities move through the city. On
39、 the top of each float stands the candidate for the Drum Queen, who is chosen at the end of the party. While most people are free to enjoy the celebrations, Rios police officers have to keep a clear head. Following the murder of three officers in a gunfight early last week, the Brazilian Government
40、has tightened security in Rio. The street fighting, robbery and sex crimes that accompany the carnival are very difficult to police.
