问题    In the Harry Potter films, Hermione Granger is better than her male friends and is considered the brightest pupil in her grade. Isn’ t it often the same in schools of our real world? A great many boys fall behind their female classmates.
   " It’ s surprising but true that most of the top students have been girls since the primary school. Girls are class leaders, club presidents and the top ones in exams," said Wang Feixuan, 15, who studies at a Chengdu school. By any measure, Wang herself is a high achiever. She is a top student, a team leader in her school’ s sports club and a winner in many competitions.
   But why do so many girls outperform their male peers?
   In Sun Yunxiao’ s latest book Save Our Boys, he points out that the education system is " more suited to girls, who are good at memorizing and like to sit quietly and read". Yet he also says that girls have to do so much more when they compete with males for honours, top universities and good jobs. They can feel great pressure nearly every day.
   This seems to be the same in most countries in the world. Young women in the United States are also reported to feel the same pressure to be perfect.
   "Let’ s look at what we ask our teenage girls for," says an American professor Stephen Hinshaw in an interview. He thinks that it’ s no longer enough that a girl does well in school and becomes a caring friend. Girls see images of impossible perfection on TV, on the Internet, and everywhere. Today’ s young women must be good learners, good athletes, and fill their after-school lives with other activities. But they’ re also asked to have the styles and looks of popular stars. "Be pretty, sweet and nice. Be athletic, competitive and get straight. Be impossibly perfect. " Stephen Hinshaw sums up.
How does Sun Yunxiao explain the reason why girls perform better than male peers?
选项 A、Girls study harder than boys.
B、The education system favours girls.
C、Boys can’t do well under pressure.
D、Girls tend to be high achievers.
答案B
解析 根据第四段第一句“…he points out that the education system is‘more suited to girls，who are good at memorizing and like to sit quietly and read’．”可知，孙云晓在他的书中指出，目前的教育体系更适合擅长记忆、喜欢安静地坐着看书的女生。由此可推知，孙云晓认为女生比男生表现好的原因是教育体系更有利于女生。故选B。
