But no matter (37) it is that drives someone to use their antipodal paw, science has also uncovered a particular set of personality traits that left-handed people tend to have (38)

It meant that I would have to entertain myself I spent most of the morning playing with my stuffed animals and reading I was sitting next to the window staring out when I got a strange idea: why not just go outside anyway?

I put on my boots and a big raincoat and stepped out into the wet world It was raining hard but it wasn’t cold All I could hear were raindrops and the wind I decided to go on my hike anyway

My feet didn’t make any sound on the wet ground and the forest seemed different I went to my favourite place and sat down In the summer, my best friend Ellen and I would come here and sit for hours It was our special place All of a sudden, I thought I heard someone shouting my name I turned and saw Ellen walking up behind me

“Oh my Gosh! It’s really you, Martha!” she said “I can’t believe that you are out here right now I thought I would be the only person crazy enough to go for a walk in the rain.”

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 44 to 50

A large number of inventions require years of arduous research and development before they are

perfected For instance, Thomas Edison had to make more than 1,000 attempts to invent the incandescent light bulb before he finally succeeded History is replete with numerous other examples

of people trying, yet failing to make inventions before they eventually succeeded Yet some inventions have come about not through hard work but simply by accident

In most cases, when someone unintentionally invented something, the inventor was attempting to create something else For example, in the 1930s, chemist Roy Plunkett was attempting to make a new substance that could be used to refrigerate items He mixed some chemicals together Then, he put them into a pressurized container and cooled the mixture By the time his experiment was complete, he had a new invention It was not a new substance that could be used for refrigeration though Instead, he had invented Teflon, which is today most commonly used to make nonstick pots and pans Similarly, decades earlier, John Pemberton was a pharmacist in Atlanta, Georgia He was attempting to create a tonic that people could use whenever they had headaches While he was not successful in that

endeavor, he managed to invent Coca - Cola, the world - famous carbonated soft drink.

Scientists have also made crucial discoveries by accident when they were conducting experiments

In 1928, Alexander Fleming discovered penicillin, an antibiotic, in this manner He discovered some mold growing in a dish with some bacteria He noticed that the bacteria seemed to be avoiding the mold When he investigated further, he determined some of the many useful properties of penicillin, which has saved millions of lives over the past few decades Likewise, in 1946, scientist Percy Spencer

was conducting an experiment with microwaves He had a candy bar in his pocket, and he noticed that

it suddenly melted He investigated and learned the reason why that had happened Soon afterward, he built a device that could utilize microwaves to heat food: the microwave oven
