Are
you
left-handed or right-handed? Do you use your right hand or left hand when you do some
activities? In this world, some people usually use their right hand, and others use their left hand. Is
there any difference between these people?
Some scientists) have discovered an interesting fact, about the life span of left-handed people and
right-handed people. They. say that left-handed people have a shorter life span than right-handed
people. This idea comes from Da study in 1991 It showed that the population of left-handed people
becomes smaller with age. The scientists said that left-handed people live in ② a world for right
handed people. Some things, such as a knife, a guitar, a baseball glove, and a keyboardof personal
Computers, are made for right-handed people. Left-handed people are more likely to have trouble
using those things, and have-accidents and serious injuries..
In 1992, one scientist,
that the life spans of left-handed people are about nine years shorter than those of right-handed
people. Were left-handed people given a bad hand?
If you are a left-handed person, don't feel down. In 2000, a scientist showed that ④ Coren's idea
was not. true. Here is the reason: some elderly right-handed people started as left-handed people, but
their parents and teachers changed them into right-handed when they were children. That means
many of left-handed people died as right-handed. Like this, there are some questions about Coren's
data, so we cannot say that left-handed people have a shorter life span. Also, other studies showed
that the life spans of right-handed people and left-handed people are not so different.
Stanley Coren, said that these make their life spans shorter. He found
Still, some people say that there are some bad points in being left-handed. Because they live in a
world for right-handed people, left-handed people may have higher rates of some diseases such as
mental disease,and allergies. However, we can also find a lot of good points in being left-handed.
They have an advantage in sports like_tennis and baseball. Also, they are likely to have more
academic success and higher IQs. Five of America's last eleven presidents were left-handed people,

この問題は消去法で行けます。選択肢一つ一つを見ていきましょう。

ア:アメリカでは少しの人が右利きである。
☞そんなわけないだろうがぁぁー！！ということです。右利きの人の方が多いですから。

イ:アメリカ人の中では、たった10%が左利きである。
☞僕は全文読みましたが、最初の方で書いてありましたっけ？わからないので今の時点でこれは保留にしときます。

ウ:右利きの人はスポーツが壊滅的だ。(不利だ。)
☞それは運動神経が壊滅的な僕に言ってんのか？文化部で悪かったなぁぁ！！あぁ！？
(…僕以外の右利きの皆さんは運動上手ですよね。利き腕なんて関係ありません。才能です。違いますね。)

エ:彼ら(左利きの人達)は他の人達よりも頑張ってお勉強してます。
☞ふざけんな。俺らも勉強してるわ。

答え:無難な「イ」になります。

選択肢の中でまともな事をいってるのはイだけですから。
