问题     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、left
B、right
C、either
D、correct
答案B
解析 语意搭配题。根据文章意思，用右手是天经地义的。如果孩子有左撇子倾向，其父母都会迫使他(她)改用右手，这样就可能让孩子产生轻微的心理障碍。故选项B right(右边的)正确。其他选项：A left(左边的)；C either(任何一个)和D correct(正确的)均不符合题意。句意：将来，如果孩子们可以选择使用左手还是右手，毫无疑问，他们中会出现更多的左撇子，而有心理障碍的人也会少一些，因为这些人的心理障碍就是由于被逼改用右手而造成的。
