new technologies like computers and smartphone, writing by hand has become something of 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 successful-both 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 tasks-both 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 know 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 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 then 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?a. the absence of blackboard in classroom. b. the use of new technologies in teaching.c. the lack of practice in handwriting. d. the popular use of smartphones.47. berningers study published in 2009 _.a. focused on the difference between writing by hand and on a computer.b. indicated that students prefer to write with a pen and paper.c. found that good essays are made up of long sentences.d. discussed the importance of writing speed.48. which of the following best shows the role of spelling?a. spelling improves ones memory of words.b. spelling ability is closely related to writing ability.c. spelling benefits the translation from words into ideas.d. spelling slows down finding exact words to express ideas.49. what does “minds eye” in paragraph 5 mean?a. window. b. soul c. picture. d. imagination.50. what conclusion could be drawn from the passage?a. computers can help people with their choice of words.b. spell checks can take the place of spelling teaching.c. handwriting still has a place in todays classrooms.d. functional spelling ability develops fast in the fifth grade.bguide tostockholmuniversitylibraryour library offers different types of studying places and provides a good studying

they could go out to a bar or pub, they could enjoy a good meal or they could go to a club. thats what may have happened a few years ago. however, new research has shown that three times as many britons would rather stay in and cook a meal for friends than have a wild night out. these people are being described as the stay home and entertain friends (shef) brigade（队，组）. mark is an it manager from manchester and could be described as a shef. “i like to socialize with my friends, but going out every weekend can be really expensive. weve found another choice; head to the local pub for one or two drinks, then go back to one of our homes for food, drink and some music. much less trouble and more fun than going into the city center and struggling to get a taxi at 2 a.m.!” the survey also found that twice as many men as women associated romance with home-cooked, candlelit dinners with their partners, claiming that this was a perfect way for a great saturday night. according to another study by insurance company more than, people are also turning to their homes as a source of entertainment and a shelter from the stress of modern living. the new “staying in” culture is driving increased spending on home improvement and entertainments systems within the home. many people in the uk have set up home cinemas with plasma screen（等离子屏幕）televisions, satellite televisions and dvd players. maybe, soon the popularity of this trend of staying in will decline and going out will become the new staying in! 56. what would be the best title for the text? a. trends in britain are
