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. 2.Hold 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.

Digital technology — email and smart phones especially—have vastly improved workers' ability to be productive outside of a traditional office. Even so, most white-collar work still happens in an office. One reason is that, according to findings of a new survey (调查) of office workers conducted by Wakefield Research for the IT company Citrix, most bosses are doubtful about remote working. Half of the workers say their boss doesn't accept it, and only 35 percent say it's tolerated.

Skeptical bosses will likely have their doubts reinforced (加深) by the same survey, which shows that 43 percent of workers say they've watched TV or a movie while “working” remotely, while 35 percent have done housework,and 28 percent have cooked dinner.

It is true, however, that working at home makes people much more efficient (高效的), because it allows workers to take care of annoying housework while still getting their jobs done. It’s much faster, for example, to shop for groceries at a quarter to three than to stand in line during the after-work rush.

The fact that such practices remain officially unaccepted reflects how far we haven't come as a society from the days when we expected every full-time worker to be supported by a full-time homemaker.

More broadly the Wakefield survey suggests that employers may be missing a low-cost way to give workers something of value. Sixty-four percent of those survey participants who haven't worked remotely would rather give up some bonus in order to get even one day a week working from home. Under such circumstances, smart firms need to find ways to let their employees have enough ability to change or be changed easily to suit a different situation to manage their time efficiently.

1.Why do some employers hesitate to allow remote working?

A. They are used to face-to-face communication.

B. They want to stick to their routine practice.

C. They have little trust in modem technology.

D. They fear losing control of their workers.

2.What seems to be most workers' attitude toward remote working?

A. Favorable.B. Doubtful.C. Reserved.D. Disapproving.

3.What does the author suggest smart firms do?

A. Shorten their office hours.

B. Give employees a pay raise.

C. Adopt flexible work patterns.

D. Reduce their staff’s workload.

It’s after 10 a.m. and the kids are still sleeping. It’s Sunday. This is a traditional day of .

Every culture on the planet has one day of rest a week. Some use that time to go church, others sleep, watch TV, and just give themselves the gift of a day. And there are those who that working up a sweat in the backyard is just what the doctor ordered, but I that exact activity.

We need to give ourselves a break, and a little rest well for almost everybody. It doesn’t matter what the activity is. The idea is to give your body, mind, and heart a(n) to relax. If you keep going at full speed every day, it can be really on you, both physically and mentally.

Some people it hard to take a real vacation, let alone a day off. I have seen many people work themselves an early grave because they were too , and some too scared to give themselves a break.

It doesn’t matter what your free time takes. You yourself the gift of a deep breath and a view of the long sunset. Remember that you can’t work well if you’re exhausted (精疲力竭) by stopping to take a rest. Again, it doesn’t matter you do it. This is not about tradition. Find out whatever time works best for you, and a plan.

this and talk it over with others. The idea here is that by giving ourselves a break and just a day off, we can make our lives better and actually create greater things in our world.

No poem should ever be discussed or “analyzed”,until it has been read aloud by someone,a teacher or a student.Better still,perhaps,is the practice of reading it twice,once at the beginning of the discussion and once at the end,so the sound of the poem is the last thing one hears of it.

All discussions of poetry are,in fact,preparations for reading it aloud,and the reading of the poem is,finally,the most telling “interpretation” of it,suggesting tone,rhythm,and meaning all at once.Hearing a poet read the work in his or her own voice,on records or on film,is obviously a special reward.But even those aids to teaching can not replace the student and the teacher reading it or,best of all,reciting it.

I have come to think,in fact,that time spent reading a poem aloud is much more important than “analyzing” it,if there isn’t time for both.I think one of our goals as teachers of English is to have students love poetry.Poetry is “a criticism of life” and “a heightening(提升)of life”.It is “an approach to the truth of feeling”,and it “can save your life”.It also deserves a place in the teaching of language and literature more central than it presently occupies.

I am not saying that every English teacher must teach poetry.Those who don’t like it should not be forced to put that dislike on anyone else.But those,who do teach poetry must keep in mind a few things about its essential nature,about its sound as well as its sense,and they must make room in the classroom for hearing poetry as well as thinking about it.

1.According to the passage,to have a better understanding of a poem,the best way is

A.to discuss it with others

B.to analyze it by oneself

C.to hear it read out

D.to practice reading it aloud

2.What does the last sentence in the third paragraph imply(暗示)?

A.The teaching of poetry should have been much more stressed.

B.The teaching of poetry is more important than the teaching of any other subject.

C.One cannot enjoy life fully without an understanding of poetry.

D.Poetry is the foundation of all languages and literature courses.

3.The underlined phrase “make room” in the last paragraph can be best replaced by“ ”.

A.build a booth

B.provide equipment

C.leave a certain amount of time

D.set aside enough space

4.Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a function of poetry?

A.Extending your life. B.Saving your life.

C.Criticizing life. D.Heightening life.
