五、阅读理解
18．阅读理解
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
left 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）What did the scientists find after studying works of art made at different times in history
A．The art began from 1,500 BC
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．About 10%-15%. B．About 50%.
C．About 40%. D．The passage doesn't tell us.
（3）What is the left hand for most people used to do
A．It's used to work with things.
B．It's used to find or hold 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．Left-handedness is cleverer than right-handedness.

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

（4）理解归纳题。通读全文的过程中并没有科学依据说明左撇子的人比右撇子的人聪明。故选A。
（5）标题归纳题。全文都在讲述人在运用两只手时的不同，有的用左手，有的用右手，从而对其进行分析。因此选项中第四项符合题意。故选D。
【点评】考查阅读理解。本文涉及细节题与推断题，细节题要注意从文中寻找答案；推断题需要联系上下文，推断出需要的信息。

五、阅读理解
18．阅读理解
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
left 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.

【知识点】科普类；说明文
【解析】【分析】文章大意：短文叙述了全世界大多数人都是右撇子。历史上似乎也是如此。1799年,科学家研究的艺术作品在不同时期从公元前1500年到1950年代。这些展示的大多数人是右撇子的作品,因此科学家们猜测, 右撇子一直是常见的。如今,只有约10%至15%的世界人口是左撇子。现在虽然右撇子比左撇子更常见,但是人们不再认为左撇子是奇怪的或不寻常的。
（1）细节理解题。根据文中语句Most of the people shown in these works are right-handed, so the scientists guessed that right-handedness has always been common through history.可知这些作品所示的大多数人是右撇子，因此科学家们猜测，右撇子在历史中一直是常见的。故选C。
（2）细节理解题。根据文中语句today, only about 10% to 15% of the world's population is left-handed.可知如今,只有约10%至15%的世界人口是左撇子。故选 A。
（3）细节理解题。根据文中语句For most people, the left hand is used to find things or hold things.可知对大多数人来说,左手是用来找东西或持着东西。故选B。
（4）理解归纳题。通读全文的过程中并没有科学依据说明左撇子的人比右撇子的人聪明。故选A。
（5）标题归纳题。全文都在讲述人在运用两只手时的不同，有的用左手，有的用右手，从而对其进行分析。因此选项中第四项符合题意。故选D。
【点评】考查阅读理解。本文涉及细节题与推断题，细节题要注意从文中寻找答案；推断题需要联系上下文，推断出需要的信息。
