Most telephone calls will be made by computers, too.Some people are glad about these new ways of shopping and communicating(交际). Others do not think that computers wil
3、l replace our old ways. Lets look at books, for example. Some people think that one day we will not read books made of paper. Instead, we will buy and read books using computers. We will read texts on small pocket computers. The computers will keep many different books in them at the same time. We w
4、ont need to turn lots of pages and paper will be saved. Computerized(计算机化) books will be used more and more. Is Internet shopping such a pleasure as going to the shop? Many people say it is not.

5、le will want to read large texts on our computers. Because paper books will perhaps be more friendly. Maybe computers wont change these two habits.1.

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 1
9、950s. 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 worlds population is left-handed. Why are there more right-handed people than left-handed ones? Scientists now k
10、now that a persons two hands each have their own jobs. For most people, the 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 persons hands and eyes w
11、ork 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
12、 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 doesnt happen to everyone, so scientists guess there must be a
13、nother 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. Thou
