So it is hardly surprising that boys are now far more likely（可能的） than girls to go to universities.Eclipsed (黯然失色)Mary Curnock Cook, a leader of the University, is so worried about the future of boys that she wants to see a national effort to solve the problem. If this difference goes on growing, girls born this year will be 75% more likely to go to university than boys.So what is at the root of this gap（差距）? Are there changes in the nature of universities which have led to the dominance of girls on campus?

So before they sit a single exam, there are probably more girls than boys who are likely to go to university.Waste of time?The average grade for a girl is C+ compared to C for a boy at A-level examinations.

Primary schools often have more female teachers, and mothers helping out.According to the study, girls and boys often have different attitudes towards schoolwork. The report says: Boys are more likely than girls to regard school as a waste of time. Whats more, boys tend（倾向） to spend over one hour less per week on homework than girls.
