13．Teaching young children is achallenging （挑战的） job for him．

3．With large and small keyboards everywhere，neither children nor adults need to write much of anything by hand．That's a big problem．Study after study suggests that handwriting is important for brain development-helping kids get fine motor skills and learn to express and create ideas．Yet the time devoted to teaching penmanship in most schools has shrunk to just one hour a week．Is it time to give up handwriting？Have a look at the link between the brain and penmanship，and you may get the answer．
A test among students in grades 2，4and 6found that they not only wrote faster by hand than by keyboard，but also created more ideas when composing essays with handwriting．And other research shows that the finger movements required to write by hand activate brain areas involved with thought，language，and short-term memory．
A recent Indiana University study had one group of children practice writing letters by hand while a second group just looked at those letters．Then，both groups of kids entered a functional MRI （核磁共振）that scanned their brains as the researchers showed them the same letters．Researchers found that the brain activity in the first group was far more advanced and"adult-like"．
Handwriting also affects other people's way they think of adults and children．Several studies have shown that the same average essay will score much higher if written with good penmanship and much lower if written out in poor handwriting．These studies have also found that people judge the quality of a person's ideas based on his or her handwriting．And the consequences are real：On standardized tests with handwritten sections，like the SAT，all essay that is considered hard to recognize gets a big zero．
Studies show that this isn't only an English-language phenomenon．Chinese and Japanese youths are suffering from"character amnesia"．They can't remember how to write characters，thanks to computers and text messaging．Some experts fear that Chinese writing and reading are so closely linked in the brain that China's reading ability as a nation could suffer．

12．Picture a library without books？
Unlike many people today，I don't own a Kindle or any type of e-reader．I prefer the
old-fashioned book．There is something about holding a book and being able to turn the
pages that I find comforting．Today books may become obsolete．That's something I find
scary．
I remember one episode （一段情节） from a TV science-fiction series Twilight Zone，
which is about a librarian who has become obsolete．Though this episode aired in 1961，the
writer of the series，Rod Serling，was exactly on point when it came to predicting the future．
In fact，in San Antonio，Texas，the first-ever bookless library in the country opened．
The library is full of iMacs，tablets and iPads which cost a huge $2.3 million．The library offers around 10，000 e-books．So the question is：Is this what the future will soon be？
Digital libraries may help the environment by not using paper．However，I feel like
something will always be lacking with a digital book．A digital library is just the beginning．
With new technology，people seem to be more absorbed in their own world．Though
social media is great，it also is addicting and has negative effects．Often when I go on
Facebook it just makes me feel worse about myself．I'll see many of my 800 Facebook
friends showing off their newest accomplishment or acceptance to college．Additionally，
our society is becoming increasingly lazy．For instance，instead of doing mental math，
people use their phone to solve 89+74．It is simple tasks like these that are allowing people to lack important educational and social skills．
It is up to us to find a balance between technology and human values and interactions．
With new technology being created every day，we need to learn how to use it alongside our
great minds．After all，inventions are supposed to benefit society，not harm it．In the day of technology，who knows what's next？
