They often have to use tools that are designed for right-handed people. So it is difficult for left-handers to use most tools. If you are right handed, try this experiment: Take a knife with your left hand and try cutting a potato into pieces. Dont be surprised if you feel awkward（别扭的）. In the past, people thought it was strange to use the left hand. Young students looked down upon their left-handed classmates. Some children were even punished for using their left hand to write. But these days parents and teachers have accepted that. In almost every school in the world, left-handed students can use their left hand to write. What causes people to be left handed or right handed? Experts have searched long and hard on this. They concluded（得出结论） that left-handed people are left handed for the same reason that right-handed people are right handed. One out of every ten people just is a left-hander. Its simply like the color of our eyessome people have brown eyes, while some others have black eyes. However, many researchers think that left-handers and right-handers are different in some aspects. Right-handers are more talkative and outgoing than left-handers. Many right-handed people understand spoken words better. For example, after they listen to directions to a supermarket, they can find it easily. Right-handers are good at organizing people, too. They are also better basketball guards. Just ask Yao Ming. Research shows that left-handers are creative and artistic. Many famous performers, like Jim Carrey and Paul McCartney, are left handed. Many left-handers learn better visually（在视觉方面）. In art, both Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo were left handed. In science, you find Newton and Einstein. The left-handed people are also really good at tennis and other single sports. If you prefer one hand, but you are still good at writing with the other, you are mixed handed. Research shows mixed-handers can remember everyday things better than other people. What did you eat for lunch two weeks ago? If youre mixed handed, you can probably remember. （1）If right-handers cut up potatoes with their left hand, they will . A . get hurtB . give up cutting C . feel uncomfortableD . change their tools（2）What is Paragraph 2 mainly about? A . Causes of being left handed. B . Encouragement to left-handers.C . Punishment for using the left hand. D . Changes in opinions on left-handers.（3）According to the passage, right-handers . A . learn better visuallyB . are good organizersC . are better at single sportsD . give clear directions to others（4）From the passage, we can learn that left-handers . A . may be more talkative and outgoingB . are ordinary people like right-handersC . might remember everyday things betterD . no longer need to use right-handed tools25. （8分）阅读理解 John is thirteen now.

Here are some of the findings of a survey about hopes and dreams，and thousands of students across China took part in it.What are the hopes of teenagers?We received several different answers to the question：What would you like to do after finishing your education? It seems some students would like to start work as soon as possible, so that they can help provide better lives for their parents. Other students hope to continue studying after finishing school and to go to university. Although money is important, many teenagers said they want to do jobs they enjoy. According to the survey, the most popular choice of job is computer programming.What are the dreams of teenagers?Teenagers have all kinds of dreams. Some are more realistic(现实的) than others. For example, many students said they would like to be volunteers if Beijing could hold the World Cup, maybe working as translators or tour guides. And quite a few said they dream of going to the moon one day. According to the survey, less realistic dreams are also common, but many students reported that they were willing to work hard to achieve their dreams. Quite a few dream of becoming famous, perhaps famous sports people or singers. Some said theyd like to go on exciting trips; one student said shed love to sail across the Pacific Ocean. And then there are dreams that are impossible; three students said theyd like to be able to fly!ConclusionIt was clear from the survey that teenagers have similar hopes.
