Do you think whether handwriting have a practical use today? Do we really need it? Many educators say yes.
Handwriting is important because research shows that when children are taught how to do it,they are also being taught how to learn and how to express themselves.Students with fluent(流畅的)handwriting produce better homework and get higher grades,a new study by Professor Steve Graham shows.
Handwriting is a basic skill of learning,expert Emily Knapton says.She believes,“When kids have trouble with handwriting,it affects all their subjects.Spelling becomes a problem;maths becomes a problem,too.Both of the subjects will be much easier for these kids to learn if their handwriting is improved.”
Fluency and speed of handwriting are very important.Graham's study has also shown that from kindergarten(幼儿园)through the fourth grade,kids think and write at the same time.If they have to struggle to remember how to spell the words,their ability to express themselves will suffer.Stephen Pevely,a professor of education says,“From the writing speed of primary school students,we can know the quality and quantity of their writing in middle school.”
Predictions of handwriting's end didn't begin with the computer;they date back to the introduction of the Remington typewriter in 1873.But for at least a generation(一代人),handwriting has seemed much less important.Now,supported by new research,educators are trying to bring back its special importance into the classroom.

C.good reading skills D.worse homework and grades
( )13.When a student has good handwriting,his spelling and maths will be ________.
A.great fun B.much harder C.much easier D.a problem
( )14.The underlined word "suffer" in the passage means “________”.
A.be strongly influenced B.be deeply moved
C.be seriously hurt D.be badly affected
( )15.Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?
A.Handwriting came to an end after the typewriter appeared.
B.Handwriting helps improve kids' performance in all their subjects.
