With modern technology, much written communication tends to focus on the keyboard, but handwriting is still a necessary and important skill.Here are some tips for you to improve your handwriting.
Examine Your Handwriting
Look through your writing to decide what makes it difficult to read or what makes it unattractive. Perhaps you write your letters too small. Check on spacing of letters and words, and proper formation of letters. If your letters are small, put more effort into writing larger letters. If certain letters trip you up, practice those letters separately and within words.
Write Correctly
Positioning and technique play a role in how your handwriting looks. Hold the pen between your thumb and first two fingers so that it rests against your fingers. Hold it firmly enough to control the tip but not so hard that it hurts your fingers. Lighter pressure on the paper helps you create smooth lines and focus on your letter formation.
Letters are formed from several basic strokes(笔划). Practice those strokes separately to get your hand used to forming them. Strokes found in letters include vertical lines, horizontal lines, and circles. Build on those to practice specific letters.
Write for a Purpose
Teach young children handwriting in meaningful contexts. Use that same idea by picking up a pen to write lists and notes by hand instead of typing. Keep a journal daily with slow, correct strokes.These true and sincere writing opportunities make the practice meaningful.
A. Build on Basics.
B. Practice makes perfect
C. Focus on improving your correctness instead of speed
D. Writing at a slower speed also helps you focus on letter formation
E. Put a handwritten letter in the mail to surprise a friend or a relative
F. Handwriting requires your brain, eyes and hands to work together to form letters.
G. Before you can improve your handwriting, you need to know where you're falling apart.

Many people who struggle with their health or weight say they've tried every diet or food plan under the sun, without any long-term success. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}. Their old eating habits soon return, leaving them disheartened and frustrated. The key to success lies in developing healthy eating habits. Here are a few eating habits that you should follow.
①Eat Healthy Unprocessed Food. Many of the packaged foods we buy today are aimed at convenience but they're not that healthy. They often contain high amounts of preservatives, man-made colourings and other added chemicals. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}.
②{#blank#}3{#/blank#}. Whole grains offer far more nutrients and fibre than their refined "white" varieties. On the taste side, whole grains have more texture, flavour and nuttiness than refined ones. It is a fast and simple way to improve your eating habits.
③Change to Healthy Cooking Methods. The more you "do" to your food, the less it does for you. So avoid things like deep-frying, which drenches your food in unnecessary calories. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}. This will sap them of nutrients.
④Plan Your Healthy Shopping. It's too easy to eat takeaway if there's nothing in the fridge or put together something naughty when it's filled with unhealthy foods. But if your fridge and pantry are stocked with healthy options you'll be able to make better choices when you're hungry. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}.
