Gazzaniga also declared that the twenty-first century is "the Century of the Brain". There is no doubt that these declarations signify the most important scientific lessons learned from science and also lift the veil of our marvelous brains. Since the brain is related to our language competence (such as listening, speaking, reading and writing abilities) and cognitive behavior of human beings, this article contributes to discover difficulties of listening comprehension within our brains from the viewpoint of the mechanisms of the brain, and tries to understand cognitive process in individuals. In addition, the educational meanings for practitioners are also discussed.認知神經科學大腦聽覺理解困難Cognitive neuroscienceHuman brainDifficulties of listening comprehension
