Five Steps to Better Handwriting

Some kids love handwriting, but others hate when it’s time to put their pen to paper. Maybe they are worried about their handwriting. Are you one of them? 【1】 Here are five steps that really work!

Get a great grasp

Try this—hold your pencil at the top and try to write your name. Pretty hard?But when you hold your pencil the correct way, writing is much easier. 2Hold it in place with your thumb, and your index(食指) and middle fingers.

Let the lines be your guide

Lined paper is your friend!Those lines can help you create letters that are the right size and proportion(均衡).3 Also be sure to fill up the lined space completely. Those capital letters should be from the bottom line to the top one.

Slow down

If your writing is hard to read, try slowing down a little. If you rush, it’s hard to control where you stop and start your letters.

Lower the pressure

4 That makes it harder to make the smooth lines. Try easing up and don’t hold the pencil too tightly.

5

Lots of games require you to write or draw pictures. So even though it’s not schoolwork, you’re still using the skills you need to control your pen better.

A. Play games.

B. Ask for more advice.

C. So “a” should be half the height of a capital “A”.

D. You’ve been writing since you were a little kid.

E. Some kids press down really hard when they write.

F. The good news is that just about everyone can improve their handwriting.

G. The best way to hold a pen or pencil is to let it rest next to the base of your thumb.

【题目】Our room was on the second floor but you could still hear the roar of the ocean and see the stars at night. I used to take long walks along the water. The food in town was wonderful and the people were very friendly. The area was very quiet and peaceful, and fairly deserted.

The last evening of our vacation, however, we all heard strange footsteps following closely behind us as we were walking up to our room in the holiday centre. We turned around and noticed a fairly young man moving very rapidly across the beach and getting closer to us. He was tall and wore a baseball cap. We couldn’t see his face and he was approaching us very rapidly. The man’s actions made my dad very nervous. Dad warned us that we’d better try to make it to our hotel room as quickly as possible. I didn’t like my dad’s voice; I could hear fear in it. It was late and we were all alone. We didn’t have any cell phones on us. I never saw Dad as worried as he was then and I knew that something was terribly wrong. The sense of fear started to overwhelm Mom and me. We had had such a good time in town. Now, the night was rapidly turning into a dangerous situation.

We could hear the man’s footsteps getting closer. Dad’s face was almost pale. The so-called intruder (侵入者) had moved nearer and nearer when all of a sudden, the nearby vending (自动贩卖) machine started going crazy and spitting out cans of soda! The noise actually scared the intruder and he ran out of sight. My parents were shaking, but we all turned around to see who had put money into the vending machine downstairs, and actually saved us, but no one was around at all. Not a soul.

It’s one vacation I will never forget.

It’s that time of year when people need to lock their cars. It’s not because there’re lots of criminals stealing cars. Rather, it’s because of good-hearted neighbors who want to share their harvest. Especially with this year’s large crop, leaving a car unlocked in my neighborhood is an invitation for someone to stuff it with zucchini(西葫芦).

My sister, Sharon, recently had a good year of tomatoes. She and her family had eaten and canned so many that they begun to feel their skin turn slightly red. She decided to share her blessings. She called everyone she knew. When that failed, she began asking everyone in the neighborhood, eventually finding a neighbor delighted to have the tomatoes. “Feel free to take whatever you want,” Sharon told her. She felt happy that she could help someone and that the food didn’t go to waste.

A few days later, the neighbor appeared in her house, holding a hot loaf of bread. She smiled,” I wanted to thank you for the tomatoes, and I have to admit I took a few other things too.”

Sharon couldn’t think of anything else that had been worth harvesting and said so,” Oh, but you did,” the neighbor said. “You had some of the prettiest zucchini I’ve ever seen.”

Sharon was confused. They hadn’t even planted any zucchini. But her neighbor insisted there were bright-green zucchini in her garden. Sharon decided to go to see where the zucchini had grown. The two of them walked t into the backyard. When the neighbor pointed at the long green vegetables, Sharon smiled,” Well, actually, those are cucumbers that we never harvested, because they got too big, soft and bitter for eating.”

The neighbor looked at Sharon, shock written all over her face. Then, smiling, she held out the bread she had shared all over the neighborhood. “I brought you a nice loaf of cucumber bread. I hope you will like it.”

【题目】Flight cancellations(取消) and loss of luggage can ruin even the best-planned holiday. The key to a stress-free trip is having a backup plan.

Fly non-stop. The worst problems involve connections, so it is important to take non-stop flights whenever possible. If you do have to make a connection, try to route through a southern city, where snowstorms and de-icing delays will be less likely. Always allow at least two to three hours for flight connections.

Check the weather. Check the weather in your connecting city, not just the arrival and departure city. If your departure flight is cancelled because of weather, you can go home or back to your hotel. Airlines promise to get you on the next available flight, not the next flight. That could be several days later on a sold-out holiday weekend.

Go early. The earlier in the day you fly, the better your chance of getting rebooked the same day after a missed connection. It will also put you ahead of stranded(滞留的) passengers who arrive later.

Rebook immediately. As soon as your flight is delayed or cancelled, get on the phone and rebook your flight instead of waiting at the ticket counter. If your rebooking is delayed, call or ask your travel agent to find a seat on another carrier, and then ask your original carrier to endorse your ticket to the new airline. Airlines are not required to do this but often do. Learn more at www. dot. gov/ airconsumer/ fly-rights.

Ship bags. A few days before your flight, ship suitcases or holiday gifts to your destination by a documented express service. It’s preferable to losing bags because of re-routed flights and sometimes cheaper than paying airline overweight bag fees.

Know your rights. Airlines are not required to compensate passengers for delayed or cancelled flights, but it never hurts to ask for goodwill vouchers(折扣) for meals, taxis or a room.

1When making a flight connection, it’s common that you’ll___________.

A. stop in the south B. choose a good city without snowstorm

C. be trapped in the storm D. wait for two or three hours

2The suggested way for you to rebook your flight is___________.

A. through the phone B. by waiting at the ticket counter

C. by changing another airline D. by surfing the Internet

3The underlined word “compensate” in the last paragraph can be replaced by “___________”.

A. pay B. ask C. host D. treat

4What’s the best title of the passage?

A. The Worst Problem in the Trip.

B. The Preparation Before the Flight Trip.

C. How to Book the Plane Ticket.

D. How to Plan the Holiday.
