Are you a righty or a lefty Writing with your right hand, you are probably right-handed, while if you use your left hand more, you are probably left-handed. This is handedness.
Interestingly, animals show handedness, too. Scientists found that cats have a favorite paw(爪子)
Scientists say the study is important since it could help them learn more about how cat brains work.There are two parts of the brain: the left part and the right part.Left-pawed cats use the right part of their brain more.It helps them take in information. Right-pawed cats use the left part of their brain more. The two parts work together but do different things. The right part deals with upset feelings. For example when you are sad or angry,the right part of your brain helps you feel this way.
Scientists say left-pawed animals experience upset feelings more. They feel more anger than right-pawed animals. They get sadder, too.
Scientists carried out the study in the cat owners homes. The owners watched their cats. They watched them walking down stairs. They watched them stepping into litter boxes(猫砂盒).They wrote down which paw the cat started with.
The cats also took a food test. Bits of food were put in the box and cats tried to get the food out.The owners wrote down which paw they used.
The results showed cats had a favorite paw.They used this paw to reach for food and take the first step The study showed something else: the boy cats liked their left paw better while the girl cats liked their right paw.

On this day people usually eat Zongzi and hold dragon boat races. They also drink realgar wine, hang Chinese mugwort around the doors and carry a spice bag around with them.
The reason why I like the festival best is that I enjoy watching the dragon boat race. The members of the dragon boat team have such great team spirit—everybody tries their best to win the race.
