Throwing, kicking, punching or batting from the "wrong " side may result______【55】throwing off many opponents who are more accustomed to dealing with the______【56】of players who are right-handed.

选项
A、unique
B、eccentric
C、normal
D、abnormal
答案
D
解析
根据后面这句:孩子们一旦显示出左撇子的倾向就会被强迫使用右手, 可以推断出人们在最近之前一直都认为使用左手是很不好的, 因此这里选D:abnormal, 意思是:不正常的。unique:独特的;eccentric:古怪的;normal:正常的。
