that could take me.I was expected to go to college,but no one ever told me Id make a good engineer someday.When I was in high school,I didnt know the first thing about engineering.I couldnt have distinguished a transmission from an alternator.The car I drove needed some work but I was afraid to take it to the mechanic.Because honestly,the mechanic could have shown me an electric can opener

_ Text 4 At the end of my junior year of high school,I heard about a summer program designed to interest girls in engineering.The six-week program was free,and students were given college credit and a dorm room at the University of Maryland.第28页Supplementary ReadingAfter ReadingDetailed ReadingGlobal ReadingBefore ReadingUnit 6 Women,Half the SkyUnit 6 Women,Half the Sky I cant help shuddering when I hear about studies that show that women are at a disadvantage when it comes to math.They imply that I am somehow abnormal.Im not,but I do know that if I hadnt stumbled into that summer program,I wouldnt be an engineer.When I was growing up I was told,as many students are,to do what I am best at.But I didnt know what that was.Most people think that when you are good at something,it comes easily to you.But this is what I discovered:just because a subject is difficult to learn,it does not mean you are not good at it.You just have to grit your teeth and work harder to get good at it.Once you do,theres a strong chance you will enjoy it more than anything else.D R _ Text 5第29页Supplementary ReadingAfter ReadingDetailed ReadingGlobal ReadingBefore ReadingUnit 6 Women,Half the SkyUnit 6 Women,Half the Sky In eighth grade I took algebra.On one test I got only 36 percent of the answers correct.I failed the next one,too.I started to think,Maybe Im just no good at this.I was lucky enough to have a teacher who didnt take my bad grades as a judgment of my abilities,but simply as an indication that I should study more.He pulled me aside and told me he knew I could do better.He let me

studied a lot in college,too.I had moments of panic while sitting underneath the buzzing fluorescent lights in the engineering library on Saturday afternoons,when I worried that the estrogen in my

between my femininity and a good career.D R _ Text 7第31页Supplementary ReadingAfter ReadingDetailed ReadingGlobal ReadingBefore ReadingUnit 6 Women,Half the SkyUnit 6 Women,Half the Sky Why are we so quick to limit ourselves?Im not denying that most little girls love dolls and most little boys love videogames,and it may be true that some people favor the right sideside of their brain,and others the left.But how relevant is that to me,or to anyone,as an individual?So I reminded myself that those studies,the ones that say that math comes more naturally to men,are based on a faulty premise:that you can judge a persons abilities separate from the cultural cues that she has received since she was an infant.No man is an island.No woman is,either.D R _ Text 8第32页Supplementary ReadingAfter ReadingDetailed ReadingGlobal ReadingBefore ReadingUnit 6 Women,Half the SkyUnit 6 Women,Half the SkyInstead of translating our differences into hard and fast conclusions about the human brain,why cant we focus instead on how incredibly flexible we are?Instead of using what we know as a reason why women cant learn physics,maybe we should consider the possibility that our brains are more powerful than we imagine.Heres a secret:math and science dont come easily to most people.No one was ever born knowing calculus.A woman can learn anything a man can,but first she needs to know that she can do it,and that takes a leap of faith.It also helps to have selective hearing.D R _ Text 9第33页Supplementary ReadingAfter ReadingDetailed ReadingGlobal ReadingBefore ReadingUnit 6 Women,Half the
