Researchers are constantly trying to understand how the human brain functions and how its structure affects the way people think and learn. It is clear that not everyone develops these skills in the same way. An interesting way to think about these differences is by classifying people as dominant in either "right brain" or "left brain" thinking. The brain is divided in half and research has proven that these opposing hemispheres are responsible for different learning styles and thinking processes. Left-brain thinkers are usually very logical, rational, and analytical. They tend to view things as individual parts rather than as a whole. General characteristics of left-brain thinkers are that they prefer classical music, are good at math, approach assignments literally, and are well-organized. In contrast to their left-brain counterparts, right-brain thinkers are typically more intuitive, synthesizing, and subjective. They also tend to view things holistically, or as a whole, rather than as a collection of parts. Right-brain thinkers have been shown to prefer rock and pop music, are good at sports and art, approach assignments creatively, and are spontaneous and unpredictable. An interesting fact is that the hemispheres of the brain actually control opposite sides of the body. In other words, the left half of the brain controls the right side of the body, and vice versa. While left-handed people are a minority of the population, there are many famous people who had this trait, including Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, Lewis Carroll, Helen Keller, and three of the past four US Presidents. The left-right brain divide might explain why so many artists, actors, authors, and poets write with their left hands! 41. Which of the following subjects might a right-brain thinker excel at? A. Algebra. B. Chemistry. C. Creative writing. D. History. 42. According to the article, left-brain thinkers tend to like _. A. sports B. poetry C. assignments D. organization 43.
