Directions: Read the following passage and answer the question given below:

1. I’ve helped at a playground as well recently, and I’ve noticed that the boys take up all the space. The girls end up playing in a little space, they have a house corner, and the girls end up in the house corner, or over in the book corner, which is clearly defined spaces where boys don’t run around, whereas the rest of the space is taken up by boys running around attacking each other, being Superman or Batman.

2. I think generally that the way boys play tends to be more um, aggressive, perhaps even more violent than the way that girls play. Boys, for example, tend to play games that involve competition, particularly using some kind of weapon, a sword or a gun. On the other hand, girls tend to play more cooperatively, and I think more peacefully.

3. I think boys tend to like playing war games, doing a lot more sort of physical things, whereas girls will tend to play a lot more games like skipping and those that are focused around babies and teddy bears.
