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? 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. 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). 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 (压力)
That makes it harder to make the smooth lines. Try easing up and don't hold the pencil too tightly.
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 bas e of your thumb.
Recycling is very important and necessary in today's world. The most important reason for this is that human progress and industry have made it possible for people to have lots of things, and when people have many material possessions, they are bound to throw some of them away. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}
Recycling is a way for us to keep the world clean as items are broken down and used again, preventing the littering of the environment. Instead of throwing all your garbage into the dustbin, you should separate paper, metal, glass, and plastic into different containers. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} They can be turned into valuable compost, which is the perfect plant food and soil disease fighter.
{#blank#}3{#/blank#} You can see if an item has been made from recycled materials by its label. If it's been recycled, it will say so. Also instead of always buying new clothes, you can arrange to have a clothing exchange with your friends. You bring clothes you don't want and pick items you want from what other people have brought. Not only does this save the environment, but it also saves your money. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} This saying can be applied to all sorts of things: books, CDs, furniture, etc. Also try shopping at second-hand stores, because they often have lots of items still in good shape for you to choose.
Many countries have made it easy for people to recycle, as alongside the normal garbage trucks, special garbage trucks come and pick up recyclables. However, in some countries the responsibility is left up to the ordinary people to recycle. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} Recycling represents just one way in which we can help the environment. But it is an effective one and one that we can actively influence.
A. Fallen leaves can also be recycled. B. Having too many things causes a lot of garbage. C. You should try to buy products that have been recycled. D. Products made with recycled materials are as good as new products. E. This creates a lot of garbage which in turn destroys the environment. F. Remember, what is one person's unwanted object can be someone else's treasure! G. Therefore, it needs attention in society so we can continue to make our environment livable. |
