30、 and hearing problems that I put in the library. Todays lecture deals with the presence of the unusually large deaf population that existed on Massachusetts Island of Marthas Vineyard for three centuries. From the settlement of the island in the 1640s to the 20th century, the people there, who had d
31、escended from 30 original families, married mainly other residents of the island. They formed a highly inbred group, producing an excellent example of the genetic patterns for the inheritance of deafness. Indeed in the late 1800, this island as a whole had a deafness rate 17 times greater than that
32、of the rest of the United States.Even Alexander Graham Bell, the inventor of the telephone and the prominent researcher into deafness, visited Marthas Vineyard to study the population. But because the principles of the genetics and inheritance were still unknown, he was unable to explain the pattern
33、s of deafness and why a deaf parent did not always have deaf children.In tile 20th century the local population has mixed with people off the island and the rate of deafness has fallen.填空项 1:_ （正确答案：1640s）解析：填空项 1:_ （正确答案：30）解析：填空项 1:_ （正确答案：telephone）解析：填空项 1:_ （正确答案：20th）解析：四、Part B(总题数：1，分数：5.00)

42、.00)六、Questions 11 - 13 ar(总题数：1，分数：3.00)A.Men. B.Women.C.Children.D.Old people.解析：听力原文11-13Many studies have been made recently about hand preference in humans. They have brought interesting results. It has been found, for instance, that many more men than women are left-handed; that all children u
43、se both hands about equally until they are three years old; and that hand preference is not clearly marked until age six. Above that age, most people not only favor one particular hand, but they also have a favorite eye, a favorite ear and foot.We know that the left side of the body is controlled by
44、 the right side of the brain. It seems that this particular half is the seat of emotion, imagination, and of the sense of space. And, indeed, lefties seem to be more creative than their right-handed fellow humans; they also seem to be more athletic and to do better in some professions which like spo
45、rts require a good sense of space. In a large school of architecture. it was found in 1977 that 29 percent of the professors and 23 percent of the graduating students were left-handed - while lefties represent less than 10 percent of the general population.Lefties manage to drive, to sew, to paint,
46、to use machines as well as any right-hander. It is not easy for them, however, to struggle with tools, school desks, automobile and television controls, and many ordinary objects. Fortunately the creation of Left-Handers International has attracted attention to their problems and caused the appearance of special stores offering all sorts of objects for lefties, including wrist-watches, musical instruments, pencil-sharpeners, cameras, scissors, and books that show them how to play left-handed guitar and left-handed golf.A.Three years old.B.Before the age of thre
