2013高考英语（遵义市）阅读理解（6）（答案）史地常识型阅读理解新闻报道类2012天津卷 the practice of students endlessly copying letters and sentences from a blackboard is a thing of the past. with the coming of new technologies like computers and smartphones, writing by hand has become something of a nostalgic(怀旧的) skill. however, while todays educators are using more and more technology in their teaching, many believe basic handwriting skills are still necessary for students to be successfulboth in school and in life. virginia berninger, professor of educational psychology at the university of washington, says its important to continue teaching handwriting and help children acquire the skill of writing by hand. berninger and her colleagues conducted a study that looked at the ability of students to complete various writing tasksboth on a computer and by hand. the study, published in 2009, found that when writing with a pen and paper, participants wrote longer essays and more complete sentences and had a faster word production rate. in a more recent study, berninger looked at what role spelling plays in a students writing skills and found that how well children spell is tied to how well they can write. “spelling makes some of the thinking parts of the brain active, which helps us access our vocabulary, word meaning and concepts. it is allowing our written language to connect with ideas.” berninger said. spelling helps students translate ideas into words in their mind first and then to transcribe (转换) “those words in the mind into written symbols on paper or keyboard and screen，” the study said. seeing the words in the “minds_eye” helps children not only to turn their ideas into words, says berninger, but also to spot (发现) spelling mistakes when they write the words down and to correct them over time. “in our computer age, some people believe that we dont have to teach spelling because we have spell checks，” she said. “but until a child has a functional spelling ability of about a fifth grade level, they wont have the knowledge to choose the correct spelling among the options given by the computer.”46. what makes writing by hand a thing of the past?
