23、If you are left-handed, you may be familiar with difficulties like eating next to a right-handed person or playing video games. It’s easy to feel alone—just 12 percent of the world’s population are left-handed, and twice as many men as women are. But don’t worry: you may have more in common with another animal—the kangaroo.

A study has suggested that wild kangaroos prefer to use their left hands for common tasks like grooming(梳洗)and feeding according to the BBC. The researchers say this is the first time that “handedness(偏手倾向) has been found in animals. The evidence comes from hours spent studying different animals in the wild.

The research confirmed for the first time that “we are not alone in the Universe; we are two humans and kangaroos”. The team also suggested that their discovery is an example of “parallel evolution(平行进化). This is because handedness seems to have appeared in primates(灵长类动物)as well as the kangaroo.

And animals with hands aren’t the only ones who prefer the left or right side. Oxtore University researchers have also discovered that crows(乌鸦) can be right- or left-beaked. A report showed that the birds prefer a particular side on which to hold sticks when using them to poke insects out of holes.

This is not the only piece of good news for left-handed people. It’s reported that left-handers make especially good baseball players, tennis players, swimmers, boxers and fencers(击剑运动员). Almost 40 percent of the top tennis players are left-handed, including Rafael Nadal, who has won 17 grand slam titles.

Five of the seven most recent US presidents have also been left-handed—Gerald Ford, Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton and Barack Obama.

There are plenty of reasons to be excited if you’re left-handed. Who knows what’s next for you, or kangaroos?

【1】The first paragraph is written mainly to ________.

A．describe the difficulties facing left-handed people

B．show the general situation of left-handedness

C．lead in to the topic of kangaroos’ handedness

D．show that there’s no need to worry if you’re left-handed

【2】Paragraphs 5-6 mainly talk about ________.

A．successful people who are left-handed

B．the advantages that left-handed people can enjoy

C．advice for left-handers on their career development

D．reasons why left-handers do well in some fields

【3】According to the passage, what does the writer think of left-handed people?

A．Good.

B．Bad.

C．We don’t know.

D．Left-handed people are hard to get great achievements.

24、   It’s hard to find a true friend. For most of the time, you may think you can believe（相信）someone, later he may let you down（失望）.

When you have some difficult times, a true friend will always be there for you. Through good times or 【1】 times, they will try to help you and make you laugh. They will understand you 【2】 you do something wrong. A friend will bring new and exciting things to your life and 【3】 your life more interesting.

True friends will keep your secrets（秘密）and they believe you can also keep 【4】 secrets. When you talk to a true friend, you don’t have to worry 【5】 what you may say. You can enjoy this freedom（自由）only with friends.

However, friendship is like a two-way street. To find a true friend, you may do the 【6】 thing as your friend does, too. Help your friends when they have problems and share the good things 【7】 them. Give them the good things they give to you. Sometimes friendship breaks very quickly if only one person is giving and trying to keep it.

There is an old saying, “Friendship makes the hearts of all the world together.” You will 【8】 that there is nothing better than having a true friend by your side to share life with.
