01 Have you ever heard people say that they tend to be more of a right-brain or left-brain thinker? From books to television programs, you have probably heard the term 1) mentrined numerous times, or perhaps you have even taken an online test to 2) determine which type best describes you.
你有没有听过人们说他们更倾向于右脑或左脑思考者？从书籍到电视节目，你可能已经听过很多次了，或者你甚至参加了一次在线测试来确定哪种类型最适合你。大脑的不同部位真的控制着不同的身体和心理功能吗？
02 Do different parts of the brain really control different bodily and mental functions? Over the years, a theory that has 3) gained in popularity is that the right brain and the left brain are 4) responsible for different modes of thought and that the way in which a person thinks will depend on which side of his brain works more actively.
多年来，一种越来越流行的理论是，右脑和左脑对不同的思维方式负有责任，一个人思考的方式将取决于他大脑的哪一边更积极地工作。
03 People who rely more 5) heavily on the right half of their brain tend to be more imaginative and spontaneous. They are interested in patterns, shapes and sizes, for the right brain is associated with 6) artistic ability like singing, painting, writing poetry, etc. Left-brain dominated people are quite 7) opposite in the way they think. They tend to be more logical and 8) analytical in their thinking and usually stand out in mathematics and word skills.
严重依赖右脑的人往往更有想象力和自发性，他们对模式、形状和大小感兴趣，因为右脑与唱歌、绘画、写诗等艺术能力有关。左脑占主导地位的人在思维方式上与左脑完全相反，他们的思维倾向于逻辑性更强，分析性更强，在数学和文字技能方面通常很突出。
04 While the different functions of the two brainparts may have been 9) distorted and exaggerated by popular psychology, understanding your strengths and weaknesses in certain areas can help you develop better ways to learn and study. For example, if you are usually 10) stumped in trying to follow verbal instructions, an activity often cited as a right-brain characteristic,you can benefit from writing down directions and developing better organizational skills.
虽然这两个脑区的不同功能可能被流行心理学扭曲和夸大，但了解你在某些领域的长处和弱点可以帮助你找到更好的学习和学习方法。例如，如果你通常在试图遵循口头指示(一种经常被称为右脑特征的活动)上陷入困境，你可以从写下方向和培养更好的组织技能中获益。
