Some recent research into conversation between men and women has produced results which will surprise few women. Men are always interrupting women when they talk. One researcher feels that men regard female talk as a kind of conversational housework. They expect women to play a supporting role. So a man interrupts in a display of dominance or control. Men also have a much more unpleasant listening style. Whereas a woman uses gestures or say: "mm", a man will say such thing as "right" or "okay" thus settle the stage for an interruption. Conversation of this kind, then, hardly has meaningful communication. Male talk is often argumentative while women are more tentative, asking more questions and tending to build up their replies on what the other person had said. The research would indicate that women are better listeners than men. Yet, listening secretly to conversation between groups of women, one has the impression of several simultaneous monologues into which no man would be able to get a chance to speak. 101. According to the writer, men feel that women's conversation is only a support to their own. 102. The conversation between men and women is not meaningful communication because men do not really listen to what women are saying. 103. The research shows that females are better at listening than males. 104. Men ask more questions and build up their replies on other people's responses. 105. The writer says that when women talk together, they seem to talk at the same time. IV. PREPOSITIONS AND PHRASAL VERBS. Supply each space with a suitable preposition to complete each sentence. 106.
