As computers become more popular in China， Chinese people are increasingly relying on computer keyboards to input
Chinese characters． But if they use the computer too much， they may end up forgetting the exact strokes（笔画） of each Chinese character when writing on paper． Experts suggest people， especially students， write by hand more．
Do you write by hand more or type more？ In Beijing， students start using a computer as early as primary school． And computer dependence is more widespread among university students． Almost all their assignments and essays are typed on a computer．
All the students interviewed say they usually use a computer．
It's faster and easier to correct if using a computer． And that's why computers are being applied more and more often to modern education． But when people are taking stock in computers increasingly， problems appear． \"When I'm writing with a pen， I find I often can't remember how to write a character， though I feel I'm familiar with it． \" \"I'm not in the mood to write when faced with a pen and paper． \"
Many students don't feel this is something to worry about． Now that it's more convenient and efficient to write on a computer， why bother to handwrite？ Many educators think differently． Shi Liwei， the headmaster of a famous primary school in the capital， said， \"Chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic（审美的）value． But those characters typed with computer keyboards only maintain their practical value． All the artistic beauty of the characters is lost． And handwriting contains the writer's
emotion． Through one's handwriting， people can get to know one's thinking and personality． Beautiful writing will give people a better first impression of them． \"
To encourage students to handwrite more， many primary schools in Beijing have made writing classes compulsory（必修的） and in universities， some professors are asking students to turn in their homework and essays written by hand． 1. Which of the following can be the best title? A. The Importance of Handwriting and Typing
B. To Type or to Handwrite
C. Writing by Computer will Replace Writing by Hand D. Practical and Aesthetic Value of Chinese Characters
2.The students interviewed prefer to write using a computer mainly because_______ A. they are usually asked to e-mail their homework and essays
B. they can correct the mistakes they make quickly and conveniently C. they find it not easy to remember how to write a character D. computers have become a fashion and China
3.Which of the following is NOT TRUE of the good points of handwriting? A. Handwriting has the writer's emotion.
B. The writer's thinking and personality are shown in his or her handwriting. C. Handwriting can impress people well and build one's self-confidence. D. Chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic value. 4. The underlined expression \" taking stock in \" probably means _ A. getting bored with B. getting dependent on C. becoming crazy about D. getting curious about
5. We can draw the conclusion from the passage that _______________ A． more and more students will give up writing on a computer B． writing by hand will give way to typing by computer one day C． the typing article better expresses one's feelings and quality D． more and more students will pay attention to handwriting 答案：BBCBC
