26、 meant to an individual.CThe practice of students endlessly copying letters and sentences from a blackboard is a thing of the past. With the coming of new technologies like computers and smartphones, writing by hand has become something of nostalgic (怀旧的) skill. However, while todays educators are u

28、ting 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 found that when writing with a pen and paper, participants wrote longer essays
29、 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 how well they can write. “Spelling makes some of the thinking parts of the brain acti
30、ve 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 keyboa
31、rd 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 them over time.“In our computer age, some people believe that we dont have
32、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.”28.

Functional spelling ability develops fast in the fifth grade.DParents and educators can teach kids to change their fixed mindsets and see more potential
36、in themselves and other people. Do you agree with this statement? If your answer is yes, heres something you might consider. Research suggests that believing in the human ability to change is linked to less depression, better health and greater achievement. This is the “growth mindset”, an idea pion
37、eered by Stanford researcher Carol Dweck.According to this research, when we practice a growth mindset, the difficulties were facing seem more likely to be surmounted. Its important for us to realize we arent helpless; we can grow and adapt. Just as important as seeing ourselves as capable of growth
38、, this reduces some of the pressure we might feel, and helps us think more in terms of challenges than threats.According to studies, developing a growth mindset is of importance. For example, a simple belief in the possibility of change may have a powerful effect on our thinkingpotentially freeing u
39、s to actually see our way through anxiety and a sense of failure among peer conflicts and peer exclusion(排除，驱逐). Research also indicates that believing personalities can change can lower aggression and better navigate social relationships. Additionally, if we believe personalities are changeable and
40、 that situation can change, we can also apply this thinking to groups, resulting in an increased cooperation.A growth mindset isnt a personal state of being; instead, its a way of thinking or a strategy we can apply in a given situation. It isnt something you simply have or you dont. However, someti
41、mes its really challenging to access a growth mindset. Something like feeling threatened, compared or criticized can make us feel unsafe so that it can be difficult to believe in the ability for change. Fortunately, theres always something you can do to develop a growth mindset. 32. According to Car
