Card 2
1. The brain is responsible for many different aspects, but the most important thing for me at the moment is memorization. I am going to take a history exam and therefore I would like my brain to remember information much better. Actually, memorizing information is really important thing and it will be useful to you at any time of your life.
2. I partially agree with that statement that brain works differently depending on sex. Starting from the past males and females had different tasks to do so their brains developed in different way. I read some statements about this and there were information that females brains used to work in a bounded area whereas males brains are better in working in a new, big territory
3. I believe that humanization will fully understand the brain in the future, cause people always developing and every time they open some new inventions that help them to solve hard questions, so I think that brain will not be an exception.
