Now students' English handwriting（书法）gets worse and worse. That makes their teachers feel worried. Is your English handwriting beautiful? If n  , here are four steps that really work!
Use paper with lines
Using paper with lines can keep you writing straight i   of up or down when you write English words or sentences. Those lines on the paper can help you to write words in the right size. Be s   to fill the lined space completely. And make sure those capital letters(大写字母) are written properly.
Slow down
If your writing is hard to read, try slowing down a little. For some kids, going slower makes the handwriting clear. If you write too q  , it's hard for you to stop where you should, and even worse, you may make more m  .
Hold your pencil right
When you hold your pencil the correct way, writing is much e  . Some kids press down really hard when they write. That makes the handwriting not nice. Try to be relaxed and don't hold the pencil so hard. Let your writing appear nice and clean. If you do so, people will guess you are a student w  a good habit.
Draw more pictures
Drawing can improve your handwriting. You need to use the skills to control your pencil better w   you are drawing pictures. Even though you have no chance to draw at school, you can practice by y   at home.
Handwriting is very important. Imagine you are a world-famous movie star or a well-known sports player, what do you do when your f   run up to you? Give them your autographs(亲笔签名), of course!

We all need a healthy environment, but we produce waster every day and it does harm to our environment. Though we are young, we can still do something to help. In fact, even the simplest everyday activities can make a real difference to the environment. Here are some ideas for you to live a green life.
Remember these three words; reduce, reuse and recycle（减量、再使用和再循环）.
Reduce means “use less”. Don’t waste things. This saves money and reduces pollution and waste going into the environment. Before we buy something new, think if it is really necessary or maybe the old one will be just as good! When we do buy things, choose local products if possible, and try not to buy too many things from abroad.
Reuse means “use again”. Use things for as long as possible. When we buy things, make sure that they last a long time. We should take care of them so that they will last, and we should repair them if we can instead of throwing them away and buying new ones. Don’t use a paper cup or a paper bag. It’s better to use a china cup and a lunch box because you can use them again.
Recycle means “change things into something else”. Although it takes energy to change something into something else, it’s better than throwing things away or burning them. Find out what can be recycled in your neighbourhood and take part in recycling programmes. We should also buy products made from recycled materials, such as recycled paper, to help save trees.
Title:      to Live a Green Life

We produce waste every day and it is      to us. We can do something to help.
Ideas	Does	Don’ts
To	Use less * Try to save something	* Don’t buy too many things from foreign     .
To reuse	Use        * Use things for us long as possible. * Buy things that last long. * Take care of things or     the old things.	* Don’t use     cups or bags.
To recycle	Change things into something       * Join in recycling programmes. * Buy     made from recycled materials.	Don’t      things away or burn them.
