  Most people around the world are right-handed.This also seems to be true in history.In 1799, scientists studied works(作品)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(大腦).The right side of the brain, which makes a person's hands and eyes work together, controls(控制)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 than 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(損害)when they are born.However, this doesn't happen to everyone, so scientists guess there must be another reason(原因)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-or left-handed according to the chance(偶然性)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.

閱讀下面短文,從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng)。

  Have you ever dreamed about a trip to space? Seeds(種子)of some vegetables and crops are a lot luckier than you, as they have travelled to space and back.

  China is among the three countries in the world that carry out agricultural(農(nóng)業(yè)的)research in space.The others are Russia and the U.S.Since 1987, China has sent about 1000 kinds of seeds into space.These include green peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers, carrots and rice.Even on China's first manned spacecraft Shenzhou V there were some seeds from Taiwan.

  “Conditions(條件)in outer space such as radiation(輻射)and low gravity can cause big changes in the seeds, ” said Chinese researcher Jin Xing.

  But not all seeds are better after going to space.After returning to the earth, the best seeds are chosen.These seeds produce much more and also grow faster than normal seeds.As the safety of genetically modified(轉(zhuǎn)基因)food is still being talked about, some people are not sure about the safety of these “space vegetables” because some of their genes(基因)are changed during the trip to space.

  But Jin holds the more hopeful view.He said, “Unlike genetically modified crops, no new genes are introduced to the space vegetables, so they are surely safe.”

  Space vegetables are better than normal vegetables.For example, space tomatoes stay fresh for twenty days, which is one week longer than normal tomatoes.Another popular space vegetable is the peppers.Space peppers have 20 per cent more vitamin C than normal peppers.

  Researchers are considering holding a tomato festival.By the time people will be able to enjoy about 30 different kinds of space tomatoes on their dining tables.

  So far, the Chinese Academy of Sciences has set up three space vegetable base fields, one of which is in Shenzhen while the others are in Beijing and Jiangsu Province.

(1)

What will happen when seeds of some vegetables are sent to space and carried back?

[  ]

A.

Some of their genes are changed.

B.

They are all better than before going to space

C.

No changes are caused in the seeds.

D.

They all produce much more and grow faster.

(2)

Why does Jin Xing have no doubt about the safety of the space vegetables?

[  ]

A.

Because the seeds sent to space stay the same.

B.

Because the seeds sent to space are the best.

C.

Because no new genes are brought into them.

D.

Because space vegetables are luckier.

(3)

Which of the following statements is TRUE?

[  ]

A.

Genetically modified food is completely safe.

B.

The space vegetables don't belong to genetically modified food in some ways.

C.

About 1000 kinds of seeds were sent into space on Shenzhou V.

D.

Seeds back from space must be planted in special rooms controlled by computers.

(4)

What is the underlined wordcucumber in the second paragraph?

[  ]

A.

A product from Russia.

B.

A kind of gene.

C.

A product from Taiwan.

D.

A kind of agricultural product.

Reading comprehension

  People's appearance(外貌) depends on things called genes(基因). Genes are found in the cells(細(xì)胞) of people's bodies, and they are passed on from parents to children. Here are some facts about eyes.

  Many Europeans and Americans can have blue, green or brown eyes. But a brown-eyed person, for example, may also carry genes for another colour in his/her body. So two brown-eyed or green-eyed parents may not have a child with the same colour eyes. If a child's father and mother both have brown eyes, the child will probably also have brown eyes, but this is not certain.

  If one parent has blue eyes and one has brown eyes, their children may have either blue eyes or brown eyes, but most will probably have brown eyes. The gene for blue eyes is recessive(隱性的) and the gene for brown eyes is dominant(顯性的). This means that if a child gets a gene for blue eyes and also a gene for brown eyes from its parents, brown will win, and the child's eyes will be brown, not blue.

Judge the following sentences True or false according to the passage. (根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,判斷下列句子正誤。正確的寫“T”,錯(cuò)誤的寫“F”。)

1.Children look like their parents because they get genes from their parents.

(  )

2.A brown-eyed person only carries the gene for brown eyes in his/her body.

(  )

3.If a child has brown eyes, its parent may have other colour eyes.

(  )

4.If a child's father and mother both have green eyes, the child's eyes must be green.

(  )

5.If one parent has blue eyes and one has brown eyes, their child mostly has brown eyes.
