【D】Research has shown that men talk more than women overall. And while a woman talks to create a relationship with the listener, men, on the other hand, try to influence the listener. Men are always trying to make their point! And they probably think they’re right, too, because men are more self-assured, more self-centered, and more satisfied with their performance than women. As to who is more forgiving, studies show that men are more vengeful and less forgiving than women. Whereas women are better at remembering faces and events, men can remember more symbolic and spatial things, such as how to find their way back from a place they’ve driven to. One of the biggest ways in which men and women are different is in how they communicate. Girls use language to get closer to others and to make friends. Language is used in a cooperative way. However, boys use language to establish their position among others. Language is used for competition. Both males and females carry these ways of using language into adulthood. This is true for all situations: at home, at work, in personal and formal situations, in meetings, or at social functions. Women cooperate to bring about understanding. In contrast, men use power to negotiate their status. Recently, researchers were surprised to discover that this difference carries over into email communication and Internet postings in chat rooms. Researchers discovered that women and men have very different online ways of communicating. And these ways reflect exactly how they use language in their lives. The language of males is adversarial. They use put-downs, like “You must be dreaming!” or “Have you lost it?” They send more emails than women and they’re longer. Men also use language that is self-promoting, such as, “I happen to be an expert on this subject.” And they often use sarcasm, like “The moon’s made of cheese.” On the other hand, females generally use language that is supportive, like “I’m sure you can do it.” They express gratitude, such as, “Thanks for all your help.” Not only do women apologize more, such as, “I’m sorry I haven’t been in touch,” but they also express doubt and make self-conscious statements like “I’m not sure I’m right about this, but ...” Women ask more questions. And when they offer an idea or opinion, it’s usually in the form of a suggestion, such as, “I think it might help you if ...,” or “I suggest you ...” After extensive study, researchers have concluded that, all in all, men use language that is aggressive, competitive, and dominating, whereas women offer support and friendship. Furthermore, they believe that the different ways in which men and women use language in emails is a result of their different goals. Men see Internet technology as a way to influence others and extend their authority and respect. On the other hand, women use it to strengthen existing friendships and make new ones. Knowing how the male and female brains differ can help everyone to understand each other better.

恭喜你精準地答對了這題！這顯示你具備相當優秀的細節定位能力。文章的第二段明確提到，女孩使用語言是為了建立關係與合作，而男孩則是為了確立地位與競爭。最關鍵的判斷點在於緊接其後的這句話：「Both males and females carry these ways of using language into adulthood.」（男性與女性都會將這些使用語言的方式帶入成年期）。這直接印證了選項 (B) 的正確性，說明溝通模式並不會隨著年齡增長而消失，而是會持續影響成年後的生活。
