答案　B　[从文章的最后一句可推知。]

　　D

　　If a husband accuses his wife of missing the bigger picture or the wife says her husband has no eye for detail，there may be more than an element of truth to it.

　　Scientists have shown that men are better at dealing with distant targets，while women are good at short­range focusing.

　　The finding reflects the way men and women's brains evolved(进化)thousands of years ago. Hunters，usually the men，needed the ability to find targets in far places. Women，on the other hand，had to be_adept_in searching the area immediately within reach for fruits，nuts，berries and roots.

　　Researchers asked 48 men and women to mark the midpoint of lines on a piece of paper with a laser pointer. Men were more accurate(准确的)than women when the target was placed at a distance of 100cm or out of reach. When the paper was only 50cm away—within hands' reach—the women did a much better job.

　　Psychologist Helen Stancey，from Hammersmith and West London College，said，“Evidence already exists that separate pathways in the brain process visual information from near and far space. Our results suggest that the near pathways is favored in women and the far pathway is favored in men. ”The findings are published online in the British Journal of Psychology.

　　In a second study，volunteers were asked to carry out the same tasks by using a stick. This time women were much better than men at judging both distances. The finding suggests that the stick provides a focal point(集中点)to help the brain to process distant information as if it is in the near space.
