Most people around the world are right-handed. This also seems to be true in history. In 1799, scientists studied works of art made at different times from 1,500 B.C. to the 1950s. Most of the people shown in these works are right-handed, so the scientists guessed that right-handedness has always been common through history. Today, only about 10% to 15% of the world’s population is left-handed.

Why are there more right-handed people than left-handed ones? Scientists now know that a person’s two hands each have their own jobs. For most people, the hand is used to find things or hold things. The right hand is used to work with things. This is because of the different work of the two sides of the brain. The right side of the brain, which makes a person’s hands and eyes work together, controls the left hand. The left-side of the brain, which controls the right hand, is the centre for thinking and doing problems. These findings show that more artists should be left-handed, and studies have found that left-handedness is twice as common among artists as among people in other jobs.

No one really knows what makes a person become right-handed instead of left-handed. Scientists have found that almost 40% of the people become left-handed because their main brain is damaged when they are born. However, this doesn’t happen to everyone, so scientists guess there must be another reason why people become left-handed. One idea is that people usually get right-handed from their parents. If a person does not receive the gene(基因) for right-handedness, he / she may become either right-handed or left-handed according to the chance and the people they work or live with.

Though right-handedness is more common than left-handedness, people no longer think left-handed people are strange or unusual. A long time ago, left-handed children were made to use their right hands like other children, but today they don’t have to.

1.After studying works of art made at different times in history, the scientists found _______.

A. the art began from 1,500 B.C.

B. the works of art ended in the 1950s

C. most people shown in the works of art are right-handed

D. most people shown in the works of art are left-handed

2.How many people in the world are left-handed now?

A．Less than one sixth. B．More than a half.

C．About 40%. D．The passage doesn’t tell us.

3.What is the hand for most people used to do?

A．It’s used to find or hold things.

B．It’s used to work with things.

C．It’s used to make a person’s eyes work together.

D．It’s the centre for thinking and doing problems.

4.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?

A．No one really knows what makes a person become right-handed.

B．Left-handedness is cleverer than right-handedness.

C．Today children are not made to use their right hands only.

D．Scientists think there must be some reason why people become left-handed.

5.The best title for this passage is _______.

A．Scientists’ New Inventions B．Left-handed People

C．Which Hand D．Different Brains, Different Hands

When a child is told he is "uncool", it can be very painful. He may say he doesn't care, and even act in ways that are opposite of cool on purpose. But ultimately, these are simply ways to handle sadness by pretending it's not there.

Helping a child feel better in school had to be careful. If you say, "Why are you worried about what other children think about you? It doesn't matter!" Children know that it does matter. Instead, an active way may be best. You could say, "I'm going to do a couple of things for you to help you feel better in school."

If a boy is having trouble making friends, the teacher can help him. The teacher can arrange things so that he has chances to use his abilities to contribute to class projects. This is how the other children learn how to value his good qualities and to like him. A teacher can also raise a child's popularity in the group by showing that he values that child. It even helps to put him in a seat next to a very popular child, or let him be a partner with that child in activities, etc.

There are things that parents can do at home, too. Be friendly when your child brings others home to play. Encourage him to invite friends to meals and then serve the dishes they consider "super". When you plan trips, picnics, movies, and other shows, invite another child with whom your child wants to be friends.

What you can do is to give him a chance to join a group that may be shutting him out. Then, if he has good qualities, he can start to build real friendship of his own.

1.A child who has been informed of being "uncool" may ________.

A. care nothing about it B. develop a sense of anger

C. do something uncool purposely D. pretend to get hurt very much

2.A teacher can help an unpopular child by ________.

A. seeing the child as the teacher's favourite

B. asking the child to do something for partners

C. forcing other children to make friends with the child

D. offering the child chances to show his good qualities

3.Which of the following is TRUE?

A. Children don’t care others' comments on them.

B. It's only teacher's work to make children popular.

C. Parents should take their children out for picnic and shows more often.

D. Inviting children's friends to family activities is good for them to make friends.

4.The passage mainly talks about ________.

A. how to help an unpopular child

B. why some children are unpopular

C. who is responsible for unpopular children

D. how to find out good points of unpopular children

Rome had the Forum. London has Speaker’s Corner. Now always-on-the-go New Yorkers have Liz and Bill.

Liz and Bill, two college graduates in their early 20s, have spent a whole year trying to have thousands of people talk to them in subway stations and on busy street corners. Just talk.

Using a 2-foot-tall sign that says, "Talk to Me," they attract conversationalists, who one evening included a mental patient, and men in business suits.

They don't collect money. They don't push religion (宗教). So what's the point?

“To see what happens ,”said Liz. “We simply enjoy life with open communication(交流).”

Shortly after the September 11, 2001 attacks, they decided to walk from New York City to Washington, a 270-mile trip. They found they loved talking to people along the way and wanted to continue talking with strangers after their return.

“It started as a crazy idea,” Liz said. “We were so curious about all the strangers walking by with their life stories. People will talk to us about anything: their jobs, their clothes, their childhood experiences, anything.”

Denise wanted to talk about an exam she was about to take. She had stopped by for the second time in two days, to let the two listeners know how it went.

Marcia had lost her husband to a serious disease. “That was very heavy on my mind,” Marcia said. “To be able to talk about it to total strangers was very good,” she explained.

To celebrate a year of talking, the two held a get-together in a city park for all the people they had met over the past year. A few hundred people showed up, as well as some television cameramen and reporters.

They may plan more parties or try to attract more people to join their informal talks. Some publishers have expressed interest in a book, something they say they'll consider.

1.What did Liz and Bill start doing after September 2001?

A. Chatting with people. B. Setting up street signs.

C. Telling stories to strangers. D. Organizing a speaker's corner.

2.What they have been doing can be described as______.

A. pointless B. normal C. crazy D. successful

3.Why are Denise and Marcia mentioned in the text?

A. They knew Liz and Bill very well.

B. They happened to meet the writer of the text.

C. They organized the get-together in the city park.

D. They are examples of those who talked to Liz and Bill.

4.What will Liz and Bill do in the future?

A. Go in for publishing. B. Do more television programs.

C. Continue what they are doing. D. Spend more time reading books.

5. How do they like the idea of writing a book?

A. They have decided to wait a year or two.

B. They will think about it carefully.

C. They agreed immediately.

D. They find it hard to do that.

A vegetarian（素食者）diet may help to protect people against cancer, a UK study suggests. Analysis of data from 52,700 man and women shows that those who did not eat meat had significantly fewer cancers than those who did.

Published in American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, the findings were worth looking into .Although it is widely recommended that people eat some fruits and vegetables every day to reduce their risk of cancer and other diseases, there is very little evidence showing that a vegetarian diet can surely reduce cancers .

But surprisingly, the researchers also found a higher rate of colorectal（直肠的）cancer – a disease connected with eating red meat – among the vegetarians.

Study leader Professor Tim Key, a researcher at the University of Oxford, said no previous study had looked at the diet in this way and that there had been a lot of confusion about the issue.

“It’s interesting – it suggests there might be some reduction in cancers in vegetarians, but we need to look carefully at that”, said the professor.

More work is needed to show the connections between diet and cancer but such studies are very hard to do. Dr Joanne Lunn, a senior nutrition scientist at the British Nutrition Foundation, said the findings highlighted the fact that cancer is a complex disease and many different lifestyle factors play a part in determining a person’s risk.

73. What would be the best title for the passage?

A. Reasons for getting cancers.

B. Vegetarians get fewer cancers.

C. Tips on avoiding cancers.

D. A surprising discovery on colorectal cancer.

74. Why are the findings worth looking into?

A. They can encourage healthy eating.

B. They show that cancer is a complex disease.

C. they show a brand new discovery.

D. They have been published in American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.

75. We can learn from the passage that _________.

A. people eating red meat are unlikely to get colorectal cancer

B. the diet is one of the many factors that determine a person’s health

C. the connections between a vegetarian diet and cancer are clear through the research

D. scientists will soon figure out the relationship between the diet and cancer
