Most people around the world are right-handed. This also seem to be true in history. Most of the people shown in the art works are right-handed. So the scientists guessed that right-handedness(右撇子) has always been common through history. Today, only about 10% to 15% of the world’s people 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(大脑). 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, is the center for thinking and doing problems.
No one really knows what makes a person become right-handed. Scientists have found that almost 40% of the people become left-handed because their main brain is damaged(损坏的) 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 get the gene, he/she may become either right-handed or left-handed according to the chance and the people they work or live with.
Right-handedness is more common than left-handedness, but people don’t think left-handed people are strange or unusual any more. A long time ago, left-handed children were made to use their right hands like other children.
50. How many people in the world are left-handed now
A. About 40%. B. More than a half.
C. About 10% to 15%.. D. The passage doesn’t tell us.
51. 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 center for thinking and doing problems.
52. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true
A. Left-handedness is cleverer than right-handedness.
B. Children are not made to use their right hands only today.
C. No one really knows what makes a person become right-handed.
D. Scientists think there must be some reasons why people become left-handed.
53. What does the underline word “gene” mean in Chinese
A. 模式 B. 基因 C. 细胞 D. 组织
54. What’s the best title for this passage
A. Scientists’ New Findings B. Left-handed People
C. How Brains Control Hands D. Which Hand, Right or Left

The Asian elephant is the largest animal is Asia. The elephants are usually 5 to 6 meters tall and weigh 3 to 5 tons. Yunnan is the only home for wild Asian elephants in China. The province has built 11 nature reserves and its population has risen from 170 in the 1970s to 300 today.
However, last year, 15 wild Asian elephants left their home in Xishuangbanna, Yunnan Province, They kept going north, walking through fields and towns. The journey damaged 561,333 square meters of crops and led to economic losses of nearly 6.8 million yuan.
People wonder why the elephants are on the move and where they are heading to. Zhang Li, a life science professor at Beijing Normal University, suggested that the elephants need more space and food, or they are losing their home. Another idea suggests that a change in Earth’s magnetic(磁场) field has made the elephants think they should move.
The government is trying to protect the safety of both humans and the elephants. They have fed the elephants tons of food in order to guide them away from city areas. They have also watched the group’s movement, warning nearby people not to get close to the elephants. A total of 76 police cars and trucks, five diggers and nine drones(无人机) have been used to protect the animals.

Most people around the world are right-handed. This also seem to be true in history. Most of the people
shown in the art works are right-handed. So the scientists guessed that right-handedness(右撇子) has always been
common through history. Today, only about 10% to 15% of the world’s people 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(大脑). 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, is the center for thinking and doing problems.
No one really knows what makes a person become right-handed. Scientists have found that almost 40% of
the people become left-handed because their main brain is damaged(损坏的) 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 get the gene, he/she may
become either right-handed or left-handed according to the chance and the people they work or live with.
Right-handedness is more common than left-handedness, but people don’t think left-handed people are
strange or unusual any more. A long time ago, left-handed children were made to use their right hands like other
children.
50. How many people in the world are left-handed now
A. About 40%. B. More than a half.
C. About 10% to 15%.. D. The passage doesn’t tell us.
51. 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 center for thinking and doing problems.
52. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true
A. Left-handedness is cleverer than right-handedness.
B. Children are not made to use their right hands only today.
C. No one really knows what makes a person become right-handed.
D. Scientists think there must be some reasons why people become left-handed.
53. What does the underline word “gene” mean in Chinese
A. 模式 B. 基因 C. 细胞 D. 组织
54. What’s the best title for this passage
A. Scientists’ New Findings B. Left-handed People
C. How Brains Control Hands D. Which Hand, Right or Left
