The Truth about Left—Handed People

About 90% of people in the world today are right-handed. The other 10% are lift-handed, including Obama, the President of the US. Every day, left-handed folks quietly face problems. It could be something as simple as driving a car or using a can opener.

Why are 80 few of us left handed? One theory is that handedness (hand preference) could be a result of genetics. Scientists say that there are two genes(基因) associated with handedness. One is the D gene. L is more frequent in the population and promotes (促成) right-hand preference. The other is the C gene. It has the ability to promote a preference for either hand. When the C gene is present, there is a 50% Chance that a person could be right- or left- handed.

Another theory has to do with human brains, which are made up of two halves. I the left half is more powerful, then one is most likely right handed. But with left- handers , it is more complicated. Seventy percent of them are also left-brain dominant (占优势的). The other 30% have right-side dominant brains.

During the 18th and 19th centuries, left- handedness was considered a disability. But not all of the myths about left handers are bad. One myth suggests that they are more creative and smarter than the right-handers. So far scientific research has yet to find any truth to these claims. In fact, a 2013 survey out of New Zealand found that left-handers and right-handers were the same.

Life might be a little more complicated for left-handers when i comes to cutting a piece of paper or opening a bottle of wine. However,it seems to be a good sign if you are trying to make it to the White House.

The Story of Milton Hershey

Almost every kid in the US has eaten a famous Hershey chocolate bar. But few people know that the Hershey chocolate factory is only about 100 years old. Even fewer know that its founder, Milton Hershey, had suffered many failures before he started his famous company.

Milton grew up in the farm country of Pennsylvania. He was first trained to become a printer. After working for a small newspaper for a short time, he decided that printing was not for him.

The Getty Center

➊:The Getty Center attracts 1.1 million visitors a year. It is one of the most popular ant museums in the US. One reason for its popularity may be that the Getty is free. No tickets to buy, and no reservations needed. There is a$15 parking fee, but you do not have to pay for parking after 5 p.m. And there is convenient public transportation.

❷A tram (接驳车) carries you from the parking area up to the hilltop campus, When you step out, you come face to face with views of the Pacific Ocean, the Santa Monica Mountains, and the vast open area of Los Angeles.

❸Then you will see the five main buildings that house the museum's collection surrounding a central courtyard. The buildings are connected by glassed walkways. So you can enjoy the view again while you move from one building to another. One of the outstanding characteristics of the museum is the natural light that shines through each building's computer-controlled louvers (百叶窗). It allows viewers to look at paintings in the same natural light in which they were created.

❹Part of the large campus is used for a series of gardens. The Central Garden was designed by Robert Irwin. He himself built everything from the handrails (扶手) to the waterfall to create a special and artistic experience in nature.

❺The Getty Center makes an effort to satisfy visitors. There is a cafe that offers lunches and snacks. There is also a restaurant for more formal meals, but it usually requires reservations.

Pets for the English

For the English people, keeping pets is not just a leisure activity.  26  In fact, the expression keeping pets" does not show the high status of their animals. An Englishman's home may be his castle, but his dog is the real king.

Many other cultures have pets. The Americans may outdo (超过) the English in buying expensive things for their pets.  27  Their pets are more than symbols of status. They tend to be far more open, easy and communicative in their relationships with their animals than with each other.

The average Englishman will try hard to avoid communication with his fellow humans.  28 But he will have no difficulty in having lively conversations with a dog.

An American visitor had once suffered for a week as a guest in a fairly typical English home.  29  The owner of the dogs engaged them in non-stop chat and laughed lovingly at their misbehaviors. She complained that the owner's relationship with these pets was "abnormal" and "unhealthy".

The English are allowed to criticize their own pets. But this must be done in friendly and joking tones  30  . They may lovingly talk about the items their dogs have eaten or destroyed.“It wasn't just shoes and ordinary things, mine used to eat mobile phones."《Well, mine chewed a whole Hi-Fi system to bits!"

A.It is an entire way of life.

B. This family was ruled by two large dogs.

C. But the English's relationship with animals is different.

D. In fact, they often take pride in their pets' misbehaviors.

E. No wonder animals are so important to the English people.

F. When he cannot avoid it, he will generally become nervous.
