24、If you are left-handed, you may be familiar with difficulties like eating next to a right-handed person or playing video games. It’s easy to feel alone—just 12 percent of the world’s population are left-handed, and twice as many men as women are. But don’t worry: you may have more in common with another animal—the kangaroo.
A study has suggested that wild kangaroos prefer to use their left hands for common tasks like grooming (梳洗) and feeding according to the BBC. The researchers say this is the first time that “handedness (偏手倾向) has been found in animals. The evidence comes from hours spent studying different animals in the wild.
The research confirmed (证实) for the first time that “we are not alone in the Universe; we are two humans and kangaroos”. The team also suggested that their discovery is an example of parallel evolution (平行进化). This is because handedness seems to have appeared in primates (灵长类动物) as well as the kangaroo.
And animals with hands aren’t the only ones who prefer the left or right side. Oxford University researchers have also discovered that crows (乌鸦) can be right-or left-beaked. A report showed that the birds prefer a particular side on which to hold sticks when using them to poke (捅) insects out of holes.
This is not the only piece of good news for left-handed people. It’s reported that left-handers make especially good baseball players, tennis players, swimmers, boxers and fencers (击剑运动员). Almost 40 percent of the top tennis players are left-handed, including Rafael Nadal, who has won 17 grand slam titles.
Five of the seven most recent US presidents have also been left-handed—Gerald Ford, Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton and Barack Obama.
There are plenty of reasons to be excited if you’re left-handed. Who knows what’s next for you, or kangaroos?
【1】The first paragraph is written mainly to ________.
A.describe the difficulties facing left-handed people
B.show the general situation of left-handedness
C.lead to the topic of kangaroos’ handedness
D.show that there’s no need to worry if you’re left-handed
【2】Paragraphs 5—6 mainly talk about ________.
A.successful people who are left-handed
B.the advantages that left-handed people can enjoy
C.advice for left-handers on their career(职业)development
D.reasons why left-handers do well in some fields
【3】According to the passage, what does the writer think of left-handed people?
A.Not terrible.
B.Bad.
C.We don’t know.
D.Left-handed people are hard to succeed greatly.
25、 On March 14 in 2018, one of science’s brightest stars went dark. Stephen Hawking, the world-famous scientist, died at 76 in Cambridge, UK.
Hawking is considered by many to be the greatest scientist in history since Albert Einstein. He came up with the theory that the universe began with the Big Bang and will end in black holes. His theory became the important base for a lot of later research. He also wrote books to help common people understand the universe. His most famous book is A Brief History of Time(《时间简史》), which has sold more than 10 million copies around the world, according to CNN.
Besides his scientific achievements, Hawking was also someone who had a strong will and positive attitude.
When Hawking was 21, he was told that he had a serious illness that stopped him from walking and talking. Later in life, he had to sit in a wheelchair and “speak” using a computerized voice. But this didn’t stop him from living a meaningful and colorful life. “If one is physically disabled, one cannot afford to be psychologically(心理上) disabled as well.” he once said.
Hawking travelled around the world to attend science meeting, visiting every continent, including Antarctica. He was also a fan of popular culture and appeared on TV shows such as Star Trek and The Big Bang Theory.
He celebrated his 60th birthday by going up in a hot-air balloon. When he was 65, he took part in a zero-gravity flight to experience weightlessness. He hoped to travel into space one day.
In 2013, Hawking spoke about how he felt life was unfair when he first knew his illness. “But now, 50 years later, I can be quietly satisfied with my life,” he said peacefully.
