The majority of people, about nine out of ten, are right-handed. 【C1】______until recently, people who were left-handed were considered【C2】______, and once children showed this tendency they were forced to use their right hands. Today left-handedness is generally【C3】______, but it is still a disadvantage in a world【C4】______most people are right-handed. For example, most tools and implements are still【C5】______for right-handed people.
In sports, 【C6】______contrast, doing things with the left hand or foot, is often an advantage. Throwing, kicking, punching or batting from the【C7】______side may result in throwing【C8】______many opponents who are more accustomed to dealing with the【C9】______of players who are right-handed. This is why, in many【C10】______at a professional level, a【C11】______proportion of players are left-handed than in the population as a whole.
The word "right" in many languages means "correct" or is【C12】______with lawfulness, whereas the words associated【C13】______"left", such as "sinister" , generally have【C14】______associations. Moreover, among a number of primitive peoples, there is【C15】______close association between death and the left hand.
In the past, in【C16】______Western societies, children were often forced to use their right hands, especially to write with. In some cases the left hand was【C17】______behind the child’ s back so that it could not be used. If, in the future, they are allowed to choose, 【C18】______will certainly be more lefthanders, and probably【C19】______people with minor psychological disturbances as a result of being forced to use their【C20】______hands.
