题文

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

题型：阅读理解  难度：中档

答案


小题1:C
小题2:A
小题3:B
小题4:A
小题5:D


试题分析：短文叙述了全世界大多数人都是右撇子。历史上似乎也是如此。1799年,科学家研究的艺术作品在不同时期从公元前1500年到1950年代。这些展示的大多数人是右撇子的作品,因此科学家们猜测, 右撇子一直是常见的。如今,只有约10%至15%的世界人口是左撇子。现在虽然右撇子比左撇子更常见,但是人们不再认为左撇子是奇怪的或不寻常的。
小题1:细节理解题。问题：科学家们发现在研究历史上的艺术作品在不同的时间吗?分析原文：Most of the people shown in these works are right-handed, so the scientists guessed that right-handedness has always been common through history.句意：这些作品所示的大多数人是右撇子,因此科学家们猜测,右撇子在历史中一直是常见的。故选C
小题2:细节理解题。问题：现在世界上有多少人是左撇子？分析原文：today, only about 10% to 15% of the world’s population is left-handed.句意：如今,只有约10%至15%的世界人口是左撇子。故选 A
小题3:细节理解题。问题：左手对大多数人用来做什么?分析原文：For most people, the left hand is used to find things or hold things.句意：对大多数人来说,左手是用来找东西或持着东西。故选B
小题4:细节理解题。问题：通过上文哪一个描述是错误的？通读全文的过程中并没有科学依据说明左撇子的人比右撇子的人聪明。故选A
小题5:标题归纳题。问题：短文最佳的题目是什么？全文都在讲述人在运用两只手时的不同，有的用左手，有的用右手，从而对其进行分析。因此选项中第四项符合题意。故选D

据专家权威分析，试题“Most people around the world are right-handed. This also se..”主要考查你对  新闻报道类阅读  等考点的理解。关于这些考点的“档案”如下：

新闻报道类阅读

考点名称：新闻报道类阅读

  • 报刊阅读应逐步成为中学生阅读的一个重要内容。由于新闻报道强调遵循5个W和1个H的原则，学生在阅读时也要抓住这一点去理解。

  • 新闻报道类阅读的注意事项：
    1. 品味新闻的标题，联系平时所积累的知识，为了解材料大意作铺垫。
    2. 了解新闻报道的特殊规律，其内容和多含何人、何地、何事、何时等，阅读时要抓住新闻的这一主要特点去理解判断。
    3. 要注意文中以黑体、大写、下划线等方式加以提示的文字，因为这很有可能是材料的核心或至少是一部分内容的概括。

    新闻报道类阅读答题技巧：

    1.审视标题，抓住中心<?xml:namespace prefix = "o" ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

    试题中有的文章有标题，有的没有，拟题人是有所考虑的。标题是文章主题的高度凝聚。
    它能给我们启发和想象，想象文章的内容和走向。这样做有利于对文章的理解，能提高做题的效率。

    2.浏览全文，掌握全貌

    如果时间紧，至少要快速通读全文，尤其是首两段。再把标题和文章内容结合起来，这样全文的梗概便一目了然了。

    3.细读题目，抓住要点

    对整篇短文内容有了一定的了解后，要马上看短文后的问题，带着问题去选择或判断答案。要确定所需查找的信息范围，并注意所查找信息的特点。例如：
    如果问题或选项涉及到人名、地名，就应该找首字母大写的单词；如果问题或选项涉及时间、日期、数字，就应该寻找具体的数据。
    另外还要注意试题难易，应暂时绕开那些少数较难的题目，先做最有把握、最熟悉的题目，也就是该类题可以直接或间接从文章中找到的。
    而对于那些要通过对文章归纳判断、逻辑推理的题目，需要再对全文快速阅读，仔细分析思考，反复比较、推敲选出正确答案。
    若文章短可先读短文，后看文后题目；如果文章太长，你可以先把文章后面的问题看一遍，带着问题去看文章。这样可以帮助你去掉杂念，提高阅读速度和解题的正确性。
    要善于找关键句，特别要注意文章的第一段和最后一段的头一句话，往往就是关键句，可以帮助你掌握文章的全貌，理解文章的主题。
    此外，还应该细读文章，因为有时的试题是考细节。可以边读边用铅笔做点标记，把有关的画出来。凡逢人物就圈起来，看完一数，有几个圈就是几个人，一目了然。

    4.细读文章，掌握细节

    这次应细品，不可一晃而过。可边读边用铅笔做些记录，把有关的人物、事件、时间、地点、起因（即五个W：who， what， when， where， why）划出来。
    经过这样的处理，你对文章的内容和细节便会胸有成竹，对事态的发生、发展和解决有了更加深入的了解。

    5.理解大意，初选答案

    一般短文都设有五个题目，对那些表层理解的题目可以断然选定。
    对那些深层理解的题目，应再查阅原文，但决不是简单重读，应找出依据，把所答案代入文中，再确定正误。
    在确定答案时，对文章和题中的词语应结合上下文思考其确切意思，切忌望文生义，作出错误的判断。

    6.复读全文，核对答案

    要用全文的主题思想统率各思考题，研究其内在的联系和逻辑关系，并依次审核那些未获解答的题，对照题目，推测判断，确保理解无误。

    7.瞻前顾后，首尾突破

    对一具体问题不要局限于一词一事，而应从短文整体考虑，从主线向外扩展，打开思路，前后上下对照。这样，可减少“钻牛角尖”和“繁琐分析”。而且，在中考试题中，即使是事实和细节题，也是“围绕或用以说明主旨和大意”的。大多数短文，尤其是新闻报道或议论文的第一段，或每段的第一句，常包含了全文的主要信息或基本观点；
    而结尾部分常是结局或结论。寓言或幽默文字的结尾也往往是点晴之笔或值得玩味之处。
    因此，抓住首尾往往抓住了主要矛盾，主要矛盾解决了，次要矛盾也就迎刃而解了。
