Chооse the cоrrect аnswer thаt best expresses the implied mаin idea. ___ 2. 1In ancient Rome, a left-handed boy who was training to be a soldier would have his hand bound to his side, and would be forced to use his weapon with his right hand. 2In the early Catholic Church, left-handedness was often interpreted as a sign of Satanic influence, and thus prohibited. 3In Christian-Greek Scriptures, many descriptions of the Last Judgment place the wicked or evil at the left hand of God, while the righteous sit at the right hand of God. 4During the early part of the twentieth century, Roman Catholic nuns in United States elementary schools sometimes punished children for using their left hand to write, typically by slapping their left hand with a ruler if they attempted to pick up a pen with it. 5As a result of such treatment during their formative years, baseball players Lou Gehrig and Babe Ruth continued to write right-handed, even though they hit and threw left-handed. 6Also, until very recently, in Chinese societies, left-handed people were strongly encouraged to switch to being right-handed. 7However, this may be in part because, while Latin characters are equally easy to write with either hand, it is more difficult to write legible Chinese characters with the left hand. A. It is possible to train left-handed people to become right-handed. B. Most cultures have looked upon left-handed people as wicked. C. Left-handedness has been frowned upon in many cultures. D. The Catholic Church used to consider left-handed people wicked.
