About 8 to 15 percent of peopl e are l eft hand ed. They often have to use tools that are d esigned for right-hand ed peopl e. So it is difficult for l eft-hand ers to use most tools. If you are right hand ed, try this experiment: Take a knife with your l eft hand and try cutting a potato into pieces. Don’t be surprised if you feel awkward（别扭的）.In the past, peopl e thought it was strange to use the l eft hand. Young stud ents l ooked d own upon their l eft-hand ed classmates. Some children were even punished for using their l eft hand to write. But these days parents and teachers have accepted that. In almost every school in the worl d, l eft-hand ed stud ents can use their l eft hand to write.What causes peopl e to be l eft hand ed or right hand ed? Experts have searched l ong and hard on this.

One out of every ten peopl e just is a l eft-hand ed peopl e are right hand ed. One out of every ten peopl e just is a l eft-hand er. It’s simply like the col or of our eyes – some peopl e have brown eyes, whil e some others have black eyes.However, may researchers think that l eft-handers and right-hand ers are different in some aspects. Right-hand ers are more talkative and outgoing than l eft-hand ers. Many right-hand ed peopl e und erstand spoken words better. For exampl e, after they listen to directions to a supermarket, they can find it easily. Right-handers are good at organizing peopl e, too. They arealso better basketball guards. Just ask Yao Ming.Research shows that l eft-hand ers are creative and artistic. Many famous performers, like Jim Carrey and Paul McCartney, are l eft hand ed. Many l eft-hand ers l earn better visually（在视觉方面）. In art, both Leonard o da Vinci and Michelangel o were l eft handed. In music, Ludwig van Beethoven was l eft handed. In science, you find Newton and Einstein. The l eft-hand ed peopl e are also really good at tennis and other singl e sports.If you prefer one hand, but you are still good at writing with the other, you are mixed. Research shows mixed-hand ers can remember everyday things better than other peopl e. What did you eat for lunch two weeks ago? If you’re mixed hand ed, you can probably remember.49.

They shoul d be allowed to get bored to that they can d evel op their ability to be creative.Chil dren are expected by their parents to be reading a textbook all the time. However, research shows that it may hamper the d evelopment of their imagination, whil e bored om can give them opportunities to d evel op creativity.Bored om is often linked with l oneliness, but a writer named Meera Syal said bored om had helped here in d eveloping her mind. She tol d researchers about her childhood. Having few things to d o, Syal often talked with her neighbors. She also tried to d o things like l earning to bake cakes. “But importantly, I Thought and wrote a lot, because I was bored,” Syal said. Shekept a diary, filling here time with short stories and poems she mad e up.Grayson Perry, an artist, grew up in a family with little money. He enjoyed himself by making up stories, drawing pictures for his stories and reading many books in the library. Bored but free, he spent hours l ooking out of the wind ow, watching the changing cl ouds and seasons. Perry fill ed up his free time with what he liked. He became creative, because he could think freely.Dr. Belton is an expert on the effects of emotions on l earning. “Bored om could be an uncomfortabl e feeling,” she said. “But some young peopl e cannot d eal with that bored om creatively. So sometimes they may break a classroom wind ow, or drive a car out for a mad race.”Usually, when children have nothing to d o, they would turn on the TV, the computer, or the phone. Their time on these things has increased, yet they need to have time to think about their experiences through play or just watching the worl d around them.It is this kind of thinking that can inspire the imagination. On the other hand, the TV or phone may cut short the thinking process. That can be harmful to the development of creativity. “For d eveloping the ability to be creative,” Dr. Belton advised, “perhaps we need to stand and stare, and stay off-line from time to time.”53.
