Now students’ English handwriting (书写) gets worse and worse. That makes their teachers feel worried.
Use paper with lines
When you write English words or sentences, you can use paper with lines.
Writing is much better when you hold your pencil in the correct way. Some kids press down really hard when they write. That makes the handwriting bad. 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 with a good habit.
Slow down
If your writing is hard to read, just slow down a little. Going slower makes your handwriting clearer.
Draw more pictures
Drawing can improve your handwriting.
Handwriting is very important. Imagine you are a famous movie star or a well-known sports player, what do you do when your fans run up to you? Give them your autographs (亲笔签名), of course!
A.Hold your pencil right |
B.Is your English handwriting beautiful? |
C.That will make your handwriting straight. |
D.If you write too quickly, it’s hard for you to stop where you should. |
E.You need to use the skills to control (控制) your pencil better when you are drawing pictures. |

A boy helped save the life of his friend from choking(噎) in the dining hall at school while having their lunch there. A video of the accident has been watched by many people online.

【推荐2】What should we do if one of our classmates suddenly falls ill or gets hurt? Here are some steps you should follow. But always remember to look for medical care after first aid if the wound is serious.
Broken bones: Take away clothing from the wound. Use an ice pack. Don’t move the hurt body part while waiting for the doctor to arrive.
Animal bites (咬伤): Wash the bite area with soap and water quickly. Pack the wound with a clean cloth if it is bleeding. If the bleeding has stopped, cover the area with a bandage and take the person to the hospital. Make sure you remember what kind of animal it is, so the doctor can find the right way to treat him or her at once.
Fainting (昏厥): Have him or her lie with feet lifted a little. Don’t move the body if you think there might be wounds from the fall. Make sure he or she can breathe and let in fresh air. Clean the person’s face with a cool cloth.
Nose bleeds: Have the person sit up with his or her head tilted (倾斜) forward a little. Do not have the person tilt his or her head back because this may cause heavy breathing or coughing. Pinch (捏) the lower part of the nose for at least 10 minutes.

【推荐3】Schools are supposed to be safe places for children. Sadly, the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) has seen accidents happen in schools from time to time. For this reason, the ICRC began its education programme in 2017. First aid training in schools around the world is one of its plans.
Khalida Asgarova is a 16-year-old student who wants to become a doctor. She lives in Aghdam in Azerbaijan. She took part in ICRC’s first aid training in the spring of 2021. One important lesson she learned was that everyone must take care of themselves first before helping others in emergency (紧急的) situations. Since attending the training, Khalida has already helped her friend who hurt his hand with broken glass. She was able to stop the bleeding and bandage the wound herself. She even taught some of the other students who could not attend the training as well as her younger cousins some of the skills she learned.
“The training is important.” Khalida said. “The teachers and students in our school used to know little about first aid. Now we can carry out some of the techniques correctly in different situations.”
Marisela Mujica teaches at a school in Venezuela. The most important thing Marisela learned from the first aid training was to stay calm in order to do what makes her feel safe at the moment. The training has made her a strong and confident person and an excellent first aider. She and other teachers have already treated small injuries. Besides, they have taught their students some first aid techniques.
Thanks to the ICRC’s first aid training, many students and teachers, like Khalida and Marisela, have become professional first aiders. While bringing these skills back to their families and communities, they will always carry the feeling of safety, confidence and resilience within themselves.

Finding a special name
家长如何给宝宝起名字?
Do you like your name? Names are important to people. A person has to live with the name for their whole (全部的) life after all.
For this reason, some parents in the US and Europe try very hard to give their children a special name. Some even pay a name expert (专家) to pick a name for them. Some companies charge (收费) one or two hundred dollars, but one Swiss company charges about $30,000 to think of a name for parents.
Not all parents do this. Many people look at baby naming books or look online for ideas.
Also, it’s common (普遍的) for parents to choose a name that another family member is called. Popular names these days are city names like Austin and Brooklyn or words in nature (自然) like Reed or Skye.
Some famous people also give their kids special names. For example, one musician named their child Audio Science, while another named their child Pirate. Isn’t this funny?

【推荐2】In Denmark, parents are allowed (允许) to set up a new school if they are dissatisfied with the school in the area where they are living. These schools have to follow the national courses, but they have a lot to choose in deciding what to teach. Some of these new schools are called “small schools” because usually the number of pupils in them is only sixty, but a school has to have at least twenty-seven pupils.
Cooleenbridge School in Ireland, is a small school like the ones in Denmark, it was set up by parents who came from Holland, Germany, Czechoslovakia, England and other parts of Ireland. They came because they wanted to live in the countryside and to grow their own food. In June 1986, they decided to start a school. They used an old, disused primary-school building and started with twenty-four children aged from four to twelve.
The teachers say, “The important thing in school is doing, not sitting.” And so the courses includes yoga, cooking, knitting, kite-making, music, fishing, drama and environmental (环境的) river studies, as well as reading, writing, maths and science.
