In 1799, scientists studied works of art made at different times from 1,500 B.C. to the 1950s. Most of the peop
19、le 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 worlds population is left-handed.Why are there more right-handed people than left-handed ones? Scientists now know that a persons two
20、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 persons hands and eyes work together, controls
21、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 real
22、ly 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 doesnt happen to everyone, so scientists guess there must be another reason why people
23、 become left-handed. One idea is that people usually get right-handed from their - 5 -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
24、 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 dont have to.41. After studying works of art made at different times in history, the sc
25、ientists found _.A. the art began from 1,500 B.C.B. the works of art ended in the 1950sC. most people shown in the works of art are right-handedD. most people shown in the works of art are left-handed42.

Its used to make a persons eyes work together.D. Its the centre for thinking and doing problems.44. According to the passage, which of the fo
27、llowing 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.45. The best title for this
28、 passage is _.A. Scientists New Inventions B. Left-handed PeopleC. Which Hand D. Different Brains, Different Hands B“If you want to see a thing well, reach out and touch it!”- 6 -That may seem a strange thing to say. But touching things can help you to see them better.Your eyes can tell you that gla
29、ss ball is round. But by holding it in your hands, you can feel how smooth and cool the ball is. You can feel how heavy the glass is.When you feel all these about the ball, you really see it.With your skin, you can feel better. For example, your fingers can tell the difference between two coins in y
30、our pocket. You can feel a little drop of water on the back of your hand, too.You can even feel sounds against your skin. Have you ever wanted to know why some people like very loud music? They must like to feel the sounds of music.All children soon learn what “Dont touch!” means. They hear it often
31、. Yet most of us keep on touching things as we grow up. In shops, we touch things we might buy, such as food, clothes and so on. To see something well, we have to touch it.The bottoms of our feet can feel things, too. You know this when you walk on warm sand, cool grass or a bad floor. All feel diff
32、erent under your feet.There are ways of learning to see well by feeling.One way is to close your eyes and try to feel everything that is touching your skin. Feel the shoes on your feet, the clothes on your body, the air on your skin. At first, it is not easy to feel these things. You are too used to
33、 them!Most museums are just for looking. But today some museums have some things to touch. Their signs say, “Do touch! There you can feel every thing on show.

37、at in a store, it often carries a label(标签) telling who made it or from what store it was bought. Indeed, some labels show the dress is famous and it is very expensive, so buyers secretly wish they might be carried for ever. On the other hand, buyers who deal with the cheapest products(产品) would be
38、pleased to do away with labels entirely. However, There is another label more important than the one showing from which store the dress was bought. When a person buys a fur coat, or a jacket, from a store, a label telling what the product is made of should be carried to it. This label is required by
39、 law. Besides telling what the product on show is made of, the label should be in clear English and be where one can find it easily. The information on the label must be the truth. The reason for this label is that most buyers today arent expert enough to - 8 -know exactly what kind of fur or materi
40、al they are buying. The buyer must believe in the store that sells the products or in what the labels say. 51. The law requires that furs carry a _.

43、 buying. DIt was school that kept me going in those dark days.We had moved up to high school.Madam Maryam said no one wanted to teach our class as we asked so many questions.We liked to be known as the clever girls.My competition with MalkaeNoorcontinued.But after the shock of being beaten by her wh
44、en she first joined our school,I worked hard and had managed to regain my position on the school honours board for the first in class.She usually came second and Monibathird.Moniba worked hard as she worried that if she got low marks her male relatives might use it as an excuse to stop her education
45、.I was the weakest in mathsonce I got zero in a testbut I worked hard at it.Some parents complained that I was being favoured because my father owned the - 9 -school.But people were always surprised that despite our rivalry we were all good friends and not jealous of each other.We also competed in w
46、hat we call board exams.These would select the best students from private schools in the district.And one year MalkaeNoor and I got exactly the same marks.We did another paper at school to see who would get the prize and again we got equal marks.So people wouldnt think I was getting special treatmen
47、t.My father arranged for us to do papers at another school,but we got the same,so we both got the prize.There was more to school than work.We liked performing plays.I wrote a play based on RomeoandJuliet about corruption(腐败) I played Romeo as a civil servant interviewing people for a job.The first c
