Passage3
Who talks more,women or men?The seemingly contradictory evidence is reconciled(调和)bythe difference what l call public and private speaking.More men feel comfortable doing"publicspeaking",while more women feel comfortable doing"private"speaking.Another way of capturingthese differences is by using the terms report-talk and rapport-talk(闲谈).
For most women,the language of conversation is primarily a language of rapport;a way otestablishing connections and negotiating relationships.Emphasis is placed on displayingsimilarities and matching experiences,From childhood,girls criticize peers who try to stand out oiappear better than others.People feel their closest connections at home,or in settings where thelfeel at home during private speaking.But even the most public situations can be approached likeprivate speaking.
For most men,the talk is primarily a means to preserve independence and negotiate andmaintain status in a hierarchical等级制的)social order.This is done by exhibiting knowledge andskil,and by holding center stage through storyteling,joking,or sharing information.Fromchildhood,men learn to use talking as a way to get and keep attention.So they are more comfortable speaking in larger groups made up most of people they know less well;in thebroadest sense,"public speaking".But even the most private situations can be approached likepublic speaking,more like giving a report than establishing rapport.
