解析：根据后面这句：孩子们一旦显示出左撇子的倾向就会被强迫使用右手，可以推断出人们在最近之前一直都认为使用左手是很不好的，因此这里选D "abnormal"，意思是：不正常的。unique“独特的”;eccentric“古怪的”;normal“正常的”。
generally accepted“普遍接受的”。admit“承认”;approve“同意，许可”;acknowledge“认可”。
where引导定语从句修饰world。
by contrast“相比之下”。
result in“导致，造成”;result from“由于······而造成”。
majority“大多数”;minority“少数”;plenty“很多”，通常修饰不可数名词； lack“缺乏”。这句话的意思是：从反面投掷、踢腿、拳击或者是用球拍击打可能会把大多数习惯了对付使用右手的对手们彻底击败。
game“比赛，赛事”;hobby“业余爱好”;activity“活动”;round“轮（比赛）”。这句话的意思是：这就是为什么在很多专业级别的比赛中，左撇子的比例要高于普通人群中左撇子的比例。
be connected with“跟······联系在一起”;related要和介词to搭配使用；mix “混合”，意思在这里不合适；combine“结合”，常和with搭配，意思不合适。本句话的意思是： “右”这个词在很多语言中都意味着“正确”或者和“合法”联系在一起。
be associated with sth.“和······相关联”，这句话中associated with "left", 是定语，修饰words。
根据句中转折连词whereas可以判断两种情况形成对照，既然和“右”相关的词汇意味着“正确”“合法”，因此whereas后的句子中说的就是相反的情况，因此这里选择 negative , negative association的意思是“负面的含义”。
There is a close association between...and…意思是：······和······之间关系密切。这句话的意思是：而且在很多原始的部落里，左手和死亡也密切相关。
tie“绑，捆”; attach“连接，附属”; bring“带来”; remove“拿走，脱掉”。这句话的意思是：有时候孩子的左手被绑在背后避免他使用。
这里是there be结构。
这句话的意思是：将来如果孩子们可以自己选择，一定会有更多的左撤子，而由于被迫使用右手导致轻微心理问题的人数也会减少。

A few old men used to protect the city streets at night and they were not paid.About 300 years ago, London was starting to get bigger and more and more people began to live there. The city was very dirty and many people were poor. There were so many thieves who stole money in the streets that people stayed in their homes as much as possible.In 1750, Henry Fielding started to pay a group of people to stop thieves. They were like policemen and were called "Bow Street Runners" because they worked near Bow Street.Fifty years later, there were 120 "Bow Street Runners", but London had become very big and needed more policemen. So in 1829, the first Metropolitan (or London)Police Force was started with 3,000 officers. Most of the men worked on foot, but a few rode horses. Until 1920 all the police in London were men.Today. the London police are quite well paid and for the few police officers who still ride horses, the pay is even better than for the others.第 26 题 In 1700, the men who protected the streets were paid __________.A． a fewB． nothingC． a littleD． a lot

The Bilingual Brain When Karl Kim immigrated to the United States from Korea as a teenager,he had a hard time learning English.Now he speaks it fluently,and he had a unique opportunity to see how our brains adapt to a second language.As a graduate student,Kim worked in the lab of Joy Hirsch,a neuroscientist in New York.______(46)They found evidence that children and adults don't use the same parts of the brain when they learn a second language. The researchers used an instrument called an MRI(magnetic resonance imaging)scanner to study the brains of two groups of bilingual people.______(47)The other consisted of people who,like Kim, learned their second language later in life.People from both groups were placed inside the MRI scanner.This allowed Kim and Hirsch to see which parts of the brain were getting more blood and were more active.They asked people from both groups to think about what they had done the day before,first in one language and then the other.They couldn't speak out loud because any movement would disrupt the scanning. Kim and Hirsch looked specifically at two language centers in the brain-Broca's area,which is believed to control speech production,and Wernicke's area,which is thought to process meaning.Kim and Hirsch found that both groups of people used the same part of Wernicke's area no matter what language they were speaking. ______(48) People who learned a second language as children used the same region in Broca's area for both their first and second languages.People who learned a second language later in life used a different part of Broca's area for their second language.______(49)Hirsch believes that when language is first being programmed in young children,their brains may mix the sounds and structures of all languages in the same area.Once that programming is complete,the processing of a new language must be taken over by a different part of the brain. A second possibility is simply that we may acquire languages differently as children than we do as adults.Hirsch thinks that mothers teach a baby to speak by using different methods involving touch'sound, and sight.______(50)______(46)A:But their use of Broca's area was different.B:One group consisted of those who had learned a second language as children.C:How does Hirsch explain this difference?D:We use special parts of the brain for language learning.E:And that is very different from learning a language in a high school or college class.F:Their work led to an important discovery.

Losing WeightGirls as young as 10 years old are dieting and in danger of developing unhealthy attitudes about weight,body image and food,a group of Toronto researchers reported Tuesday.Their study of 2,279 girls aged 10 to 14 showed that while the vast majority had healthy weights,nearly a third felt they were overweight and were trying to lose pounds. Even at the tender age of 10,nearly 32 percent of girls felt"too fat"and 3 1 percent said they were trying to diet.McVey,a researcher at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto,and her colleagues analyzed data collected in a number of surveys of southern Ontario school girls between 1993 and 2003,reporting their findings in Tuesday's issue of the Canadian Medical Association Journal.Nearly 80 percent of the girls had a healthy body weight and only 7.2 percent were considered overweight using standard weight-to-height ratios.Most researchers suggest the rate of overweight children in this country is several times higher than that figure.Nearly 30 percent of the girls reported they were currently trying to lose weight,though few admitted to dangerous behavior such as self-induced vomiting.Still,a test that measured attitudes towards eating showed 10.5 percent of survey participants were already at risk of developing an eating disorder."We're not talking about kids who've been prescribed a diet because they're above average weight or overweight. We're talking about children who are within a healthy weight range.And they have taken it upon themselves to diet to lose weight,"McVey said,acknowledging she found the rates disturbing. She said striking a balance between healthy weights and healthy attitudes towards food and body image is a complex task,with no easy solutions. The study showed that most of the girls______.A: were overweightB: were on a dietC: had unhealthy attitudes about weightD: had a healthy body weight
