7 A. Read the text and try to understand what the marked1 words mean.
Why Are Some People Left-handed?
About four per cent of people are left-handed. From history we know that some of the most talented men and women have been left-handed. Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo, the greatest sculptors of all times, were both left-handed.
At the same time we live in a right-handed world. We make our scissors, cars, musical instruments and other things mostly for right-handed people. So left-handed people have to learn to use them.
We don’t know what makes most people right-handed. Here is one theory: the body is not symmetrical, not quite the same on both sides. For example, the right side of the face is a little different from the left. One of our legs is not as strong as the other. Our feet, toes or shoulders may be a little different in size. And this asymmetry goes through our whole body.
The same is true about the brain. The human brain has two halves which don’t work the same way. People believe that the left half of the brain is more “active” than the right half.
The nerves from the brain go to the opposite side of the body. That’s why the right half of the body is better able to do things. We read, write, speak and work with the left half of the brain. And this makes most of us right-handed too. But with some few people the right half of the brain is more active, and these people work best with the left side of their bodies.
B. Listen and read the text aloud.
C. Why, do you think, doctors say that parents shouldntaskt teach left-handed children to work with their right hands? Choose the right answer.
1) It may make left-handed children less talented.
2) It may take too much time.
3) It may damage their health.
