The loss of handwriting in our high-tech world saddens me. People of all ages openly admit their handwriting is becoming worse as keyboards replace pen and paper. Increasingly, schoolchildren deal with assignments on computer and struggle to write, having had little practice. I am of the generation that learnt to write with a dip pen in kindergarten and a fountain pen in high school; by the time I reached university, like everyone else, I used a functional ballpoint. Handwriting has filled every aspect of my life since I was first taught to shape letters on the lined pages of my exercise books.
From the age of 12, I have kept a diary, recording my thoughts and feelings about both the significant and boring aspects of my life. Through this daily practice I connected with myself, explored experiences and found a way to interpret and make sense of my relationships. Although I rarely reread my written material, the process of writing has remained with me as a means of processing my feelings and filtering (过滤)my experiences.
Yet today, handwritten letters are as rare as a red panda. Few of us write letters any longer, even to those to whom we are close We communicate differently when we e-mail or text, both methods characterized by speed and informality. The deep thinking, which came with a handwritten letter, is almost entirely absent. We may be communicating more frequently and with more people, but the depth and quality of our communication has reduced.
Sadly, modern technology tends to last for a limited time. Few of us keep old e-mails or even print them out, so a sense of history and memory is lost. Archivists(档案管理者) report that more information has been lost in the past decade than in the previous 150 years. It is too easy to press the delete (删除) button.
In many other areas of records, material is now in the digital format (数字格式). Yet saving material in a digital format only is extremely unstable (不稳定的). How it will survive the future remains a problem.
A. Last four miles of roads C. Personalities of roads
B. A stretch of hard road D. Beauty along the way
In this digital world of text, e-mails and instant messaging (即时通讯), the value of writing is no longer clear and the case for keeping the practice of writing needs to be made. Should we save the pen and paper when laptops and mobiles are functional, common and unstoppable? Should children continue to be taught to write with a pen and paper?
With its passing, a good way of self-expression is being lost. I invite readers to use handwriting and become aware of this special skill that has created civilization for centuries.

As is interestingly depicted in the pictures, the two friends are sitting at the either side of the boat, enjoying each other’s company by chatting. However, when one is unwilling to share with the other his food, the two ends up in a fight, causing the boat to overturn.
Ridiculous as the pictures seem to be, for true friends, I think, are unlikely to break up for not sharing food, they do convey a message to us that friendship tends to be fragile unless maintained properly. There is no debating that we cannot live a fulfilled life without friends. But what is a true friend? As far as I am concerned, a true friend is simply a person who cares and is willing to patiently listen to my problems or lend me a shoulder to cry on in my times of trouble.
It is easier to make a friend than to keep one, so it is strongly suggested that we devote our time and energy to being with our friends, advising, comforting and supporting our friends whenever they are in need. Only thus can we strengthen our friendship. 录音原文 Text 1
W: Oh, no! I meant to call my mom, but it’s too late to call today.
M: Yeah. Your mom lives in London, not here in New York. They’re five hours ahead of us. So, it’s already midnight there. (1) Text 2
W: So, what did you end up doing this weekend? M: I went to see a Lady Gaga concert. She was amazing! W: Wow, those tickets were super expensive, right?
M: Nope. The show didn’t sell out, so they sold tickets at the door for half price just before the concert began. Sometimes it’s good to wait. (2) Text 3
M: I’ve been waiting for three weeks for someone to return Harry Potter to the library. I’m getting so impatient! (3)
