The majority of people, about nine out of ten, are right-handed.【71】until recently, people who were left-handed were considered【72】, and once children showed this tendency they were forced to use their right hands. Today left-handedness is generally【73】, but it is still a disadvantage in a world【74】most people are right-handed. For example, most tools and implements are still【75】for right-handed people.
In sports【76】contrast, doing things with the left hand or foot is often an advantage. Throwing, kicking, punching or batting from the "【77】" side may result in throwing【78】many opponents who are more accustomed to dealing with the【79】of players who are right-handed. This is why, in many【80】at a professional level, a【81】proportion of players are left-handed than in the population as a whole.
The word "right" in many languages means "correct" or is【82】with lawfulness, whereas the words associated【83】"left", such as "sinister", generally have【84】associations. Moreover, among a number of primitive peoples, there is【85】close association between death and the left hand.
In the past, in【86】Western societies, children were often forced to use their right hands, especially to write with. In some cases the left hand was【87】behind the child’s back so that it could not be used. If, in the future, they are allowed to choose,【88】will certainly be more left-handers, and probably【89】people with minor psychological disturbances as a result of being forced to use their【90】hand.
选项
A、away
B、down
C、off
D、up
答案
C
解析
词语搭配题。此处需要一个副词与throw构成短语,其宾语是opponents,根据上下文,用左手是优势会导致运动员战胜对手,而(throw) off意为“抛弃(习惯、拘束等),击败对手”,如:He is too young to throw off the more experienced competitors.故选项C off符合逻辑及题意。选项A away与throw构成短语,意为“抛弃”,如:You threw away the chance of a good job by your carelessness.选项B down与throw构成短语,意为“扔掉,推翻”,如:The murderer threw the body down the cliff.选项D up与throw构成短语,意为“放弃(职业、学业等)”。
