24、st answer （ 根据短文内容，选择最恰当的答案 ） （ 4分 ）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 gu

25、essed 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 hands each have their own jobs. For most people, the left hand

26、 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 persons hands and eyes work together, controls (控制) the left hand. The left-side of the brain, whic

27、h controls the right hand, is the center 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 as among people in other jobs.No one really knows what makes a person become right-

28、handed instead of left-handed. Scientists have found that almost 40% of the people become left-handed because their main brain is damaged (损害) when they are born. However, this doesnt happen to everyone, so scientists guess there must be another reason (原因) why people become left-handed. One idea is

29、 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, pe

30、ople 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 most children can choose.1.
