ответьте на вопросы по тексту: girls+maths=misery? the idea that girls have difficulty with maths is a common stereotype and there are sheets of statistics showing girls getting poorer results than boys in science and maths.but why? are boys really better at these subjects? or are girls being held back? there are slight genetic differences between both sexes at birth which may influence the subjects boys and girls choose," says dr sean lyle, lecturer in education at surrey university.
