21、Does handwriting matter (要紧)? Not very much, according to many educators. However, scientists say it is far too soon to declare (宣布) handwriting is not important. New evidence (证据) shows that the link (联系) between handwriting and educational development is deep.
Children not only learn to read more quickly when they first learn to write by hand, but they are also better able to create ideas and remember information. In other words, it’s not only what we write that matters—but how.
A study led by Karin James, a psychologist at Indiana University, gave support to that view. A group of children did not learn to read and write. They were offered a letter or a shape on a card and asked to copy it in one of three ways: draw the picture on a page but with a dotted outline (虚线), draw it on a piece of blank white paper, or type it on a computer. Then the researchers put the children in a brain scanner (扫描) and showed them the picture again.
It was found that when children drew a picture freehand (徒手画) without a dotted outline or a computer, the activities in three areas of the brain increased (增加). These three areas work actively in adults when they read and write. Children chose the other two ways and they showed no such result. Dr. James attributes (归咎于) the differences to the process of free handwriting: Not only must we first plan and take action in a way but we are also likely to produce a result that is variable. Those are not necessary when we have an outline.
It’s time for educators to change their minds and pay more attention to children’s handwriting.

22、 E-book is short for electronic book. It is usually read on personal computers. Some mobile phones can also be used-to read e-books.
Earlier e-books were written for a special group of readers and were about only a few subjects. With the development(发展)of the Internet, knowledge and answers to a lot of questions mainly come from e-books. This is why the e-book business is increasing quickly.

He 【1】(begin) that adventure by traveling to different cities in the US before going on to other countries with his wife and three daughters.
It’s easy to feel 【2】when you’re on the road alone, although my mother said repeatedly, “We made lots of new friends on our trip—most of them were workers who fix 【3】cars, because we often spent hours 【4】(repair) our car during the journey.”

When in the Philippines, we drove to Quezon City one day. It should have been a one-hour drive but was nearly three 【7】(thank) to bad roads and worse traffic. Another day, neither of my parents put our suitcases (行李箱) in the car. It took us another 8 hours to go【8】to get them. It was quite peaceful in our car during that whole time.
