21、阅读B篇，根据短文内容判断下列句子的正(A) 误(B)。请将答案按编号涂卡。

Many students have kept practising English hand-writing for nearly three years. Now a lot of students’ English hand-writings are getting better and better. That makes our teachers feel happy. Is your English hand-writing beautiful? If not, here are four steps that really work!

◆Use paper that has lines

When you write English words or sentences, you can use paper with lines. That will make your handwriting straight. Those lines on the paper can help you to write words in the right size. Be sure 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 fast, it’s hard for you to stop where you should, and even worse, you may make more mistakes.

◆ Hold your pen right

When you hold your pen the correct way, writing is much easier. Some kids press(按，压) down really hard when they write. That makes the handwriting not nice. Try to relax yourself and don’t hold the pen so hard. Let your writing appear nice and clean. If you do so, people will guess you are a student with a good habit.

◆Draw more pictures

Drawing can improve your handwriting. You need to use the skills to control your pencil better when you are drawing pictures. Even though you have no chance to draw at school, you can practice by yourself at home.

Handwriting is very important. The English saying says “The style(字体) is the man.” Imagine you are a world-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!

【1】Not all the students’ English hand-writings are getting better and better.

【2】If you want to make English hand-writing beautiful, you’d better use paper with lines.

【3】The more slowly you write, the more mistakes you will make.

【4】Holding your pen too hard while writing can make your handwriting nice and clean.

【5】The English saying means handwriting can determine (测定) a man and his personality.

22、Anna Brown was an artist who believed that it was important to help others. When she heard of a summer camp for children with serious illnesses, she came up with an idea. It cost money for these kids to go to the camp, so Anna decided to see what she could do to help. It was impossible for her to donate (捐赠) a lot of money, so she had to think of another way.

She wanted to take advantage of (利用) her love of art. So she started making and selling beautiful cards to raise money for these kids. Because these cards were all handmade, it would take her a long time to make a lot of them. So Anna had another idea. She started inviting friends to her house to help her make the cards. At first her friends were hesitant. Many said that they were not artistic and didn’t know how to make cards. But after they saw the beautiful materials (材料) that she had in her workroom, her friends felt more comfortable doing things such as drawing and cutting in order to make a new card.

But the materials were expensive. To make money without spending money, Anna asked for and got donations of paper, glue, scissors, and other things from nearby stores. She sold her cards for three dollars each in different art markets during the year. Anna raised more than $30,000 in her 10 years making cards.

【3】How did Anna get the expensive materials?

A．She got them from her parents.
