（单词翻译）

 Do you have trouble with math? Are there treatments or therapies that can help you get better at mathematics? Good question. And the answer is, yes. Or, at least, there may be. First, though, understand that you’re not alone. Researchers estimate that something like 20% of people have some sort of math disability. Which can be difficult, especially for doing well in school and on standardized1 tests and the like. Now, doing math is a mental exercise, of course. Some people’s brains seem hard-wired to make sense of numbers. But a group of scientists at Oxford2 University may have found a way to help people whose brains don’t take as easily to math. Among a group of fifteen volunteers, they used a mild electrical current to stimulate3 the right hemisphere of the brains of one group, during six two hour sessions. Specifically, they stimulated4 the parietal lobe5 the part of the brain linked to working with numbers. The other group was also hooked up to electrodes but received no stimulation6.
