Americans love pets. Many pet owners treat their pets as part of the family. Sometimes they even play interesting videos for their pets or giving them amusing toys. If they have an eye for fashion, pet owners can dress their pets in stylish clothes. Sometimes they can use animal perfume （香水）to make their dogs smell good, less beastly.
In America, there are more households with pets than those with children. At least 43 percent of US homes have pets of some sort. Animals, such as monkeys, snakes and even wolves, find a home with some Americans. More common pets include tropical（熱帶的）fish, mice and birds. But the all-time favorites are cats and dogs, even at the White House. Barney, the Bushes’ dog, has now become First Pet. Many stores sell tasty pet foods to owners eager to please their pets. In Houston, Texas, dogs can have their dinner delivered to their homes, just like pizza. Pets can even go on a vacation with their owners. Furry guests at Four Seansons Hotels can enjoy meals served on fine china and sleep in soft beds. Americans believe that pets have a right to be treated well. At least 75 animal welfare organizations exist in America. Veterinarians（獸醫）can give animals medical care for a very high price. To pay for the high-tech health care, people can buy health insurance（保險）for their pets. Researchers have discovered that interacting with animals lowers a person’s blood pressure. Dogs can offer protection from thieves and unwelcome visitors.
Cats can help rid the home of unwanted pests. Little creatures of all shapes and sizes can provide friendship and love. Pets even encourage social relationships: They give their owners an appearance of friendliness, and they provide a good topic of conversation. Pets are as basic to American culture as hot dogs or apple pies. To Americans, pets are not just animals, but a part of the family. After all, pets are people, too.

Scientists studied works of art made at various times in history and found most of the people shown in these works of art are right-handed. So scientists guessed that right-handedness has always been common in humans through history. Because no one has ever come across records of any large groups of left-handed nations or people, scientists also guessed that right-handedness is a natural characteristic（特征）of humans. Today, only about 10 to 15 percent of the world’s population is left-handed.
Scientists now know that a person’s two hands each have every special jobs. For most people, the left hand is used to find things, hold things, or support things. The fright hand is used to handle or work with things. This division of work seems to be related to how the two sides of the brain work. The right side of the brain, which controls the left hand, is strong in skills related to making a person’s hands and eyes work together. The left side of the brain, which controls the right hand, is the center for thinking and solving problems. Studies have found that left-handedness is twice as common among artists than among people in other jobs.
What makes a person become right-handed rather than left-handed? So far, no one really knows for sure. Scientists have found that almost 40 percent of the people who suffer major brain damage when they are born become left-handed. However, not everyone who suffers brain damage becomes left-handed, so scientists guess that there must be another reason. One simple idea suggests that people normally get right-handedness 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 chance and the person’s surroundings.
Even though right-handedness is more common than left-handed are no longer looked down on, nor are they considered abnormal（反常的）. Left-handed children used to be punished until they bean using their right hands like other children, but today either case is perfectly acceptable.
6. Which fact supports the idea that right-handedness is a natural characteristic?
A. Scientists found the right-handed gene.
B. Right-handed people are more clever.
C. Most famous people were right-handed.
D. No large left-handed groups of people exist in the world.
7. The second paragraph describes _____.
A. the two hands separately
B. problems that left-handed people have
C. the connection of the brain to the hands
D. how a person becomes left-handed
8. What makes a person right-handed
A. Genes B. Society.
C. The environment. D. No one knows for sure.
9. People sometimes become left-handed because ___.
A. it is accepted
B. the left hand is more artistic
C. their brain is damaged
D. right-handed children are punished
10. Suppose the world’s population is 6.5 billion, how many left-handed people are there?
A. About 2 billion. B. About 1 billion.
C. About 500 million. D. About 100 million.
