Left-Handedness
Science still can’t tell us why people become left-handed. Some studies say that it is because
of gene(基因) flow before birth. Another study says that people may choose(選擇) to become
right-handed to fit in with others. This way they are not different from most of the people.
Though there are challenges(挑戰), being left-handed can be good in many ways. For starters,
left-handers may do better in sports. This is because it is more difficult for right-handers to get
used to(習慣) their moves. Some studies also found that, left-handers are usually better at
remembering things and doing difficult math problems.
Today, society’s(社會) ideas about being left-handed is changing. More and more people
believe that being left-handed is a gift to a person. There is even a special day for left-handers.
It’s on August thirteen and called internatioal Lefthanders Day. Left-handed people come
together to have a good time. There are some fun activities like lefty vs. righty sports games
and a special tea party for lefties. This special day lets people know that it’s OK if things aren’t
“all right” all the time.

Ancient Papers Found in Kinmen (金門) Trash
A street cleaner in Kinmen found(發現) papers from ancient times. The word “ancient” means
something is very very old. Sometimes hundreds or thousands of years old.
The worker was picking up trash when he saw two boxes. He opened the boxes and looked
inside. He found that the papers inside were important and valuable. If(如果) something is valuable,
that means it is important. Some valuable things mean a lot of money. Other valuable things are an
important part of history or very useful.
Experts(專家) came and looked at the papers. They say the papers are documents(文件) for
owning land(土地), and documents for selling and buying land.
The experts say the ancient papers are up to 200 years old! That means they came from the time
of the Qing Dynasty (清朝), all the way to the first year of the Republic Era (民國元年).

money. Some of them moved to other countries like Malaysia (馬來西亞), and Indonesia(印尼) to try
to make more money.
