QUESTION-1 The second paragraph states the current theory, namely that performance variations among the sexes can be explained in terms of cultural differences. Later, evidence is supplied to contradict this current theory. Thus, the best answer is choice D.

QUESTION-2 The author begins by explaining the prevailing theories for various observed differences in the sexes. Then the author introduces the findings of recent research that provide evidence contradicting these prevailing theories.
The author does not suggest that one sex's capabilities are better or compare the performance of both sexes in a given profession.
Therefore, choice B and C can be eliminated. Choices D and E fall outside the scope of the passage.
Therefore, choice A is the best choice.

QUESTION-3 The passage begins with a brief discussion of how schooling and testing discriminate against the sexes in light of their differences. The best continuation of the passage would therefore apply the new evidence that contradicts the prevailing theory on the cause of such differences to schooling and testing procedures. Such a continuation would allow the findings of the recent brain research detailed in paragraphs 3 and 4 to be considered with respect to their consequences for the opening subject, the sex-based discrimination currently present in schooling and testing.
Choice C is the best choice.

文章脉络：
第一段：Boys suffer from primary-school classrooms; girls suffer later.
第二段：一种解释是文化差异，这种理论认为如果平等地养育孩子，随着时间得推移，这些差异会消失。
第三段：最新研究表明男女差异是由于大脑不同。出生时女性对声音等敏感，男性则在另一方面更敏感(show an early visual superiority)
