Fun Writing Activities for Struggling Writers

There are dozens of reasons kids struggle with writing. They may have difficulty getting their thoughts down on paper.1.Perhaps grammar and language barriers are blocking their progress. Whatever the reason, adding a little fun can be a great way to get the creative juices flowing.

2.

Sometimes writers get stuck because they simply don’t know where to start. For a child, you can try things that are geared(合适)toward their interests, like My Favorite Toy, or What I Like to Do in the Summer. Remember,  it' s important to support and guide their ideas, not to discourage thoughts or judge them.

Develop a story map

A great activity to help struggling writers is to build a story map. Write down ideas for the beginning, middle, and end of a story. Or put the topic in the middle of the paper and draw lines out like a wheel for who, what where, and why. 3. This is helpful, because it takes stress out of the writing process.

Make writing relevant

Children are more apt to write if they can identify with the purpose of writing. Writing a letter to a friend or relative can better engage a struggling writer. Or maybe your child has some suggestions for books that the library should have. 4. If writing becomes a more meaningful activity to the child, it can help to make it an easier process.

Make writing enjoyable

You could consider making different writing supplies available like colored pens and pencils, notebooks, etc. Or you could provide a word bank of common words for your kid to use and spell. 5. Afterwards, reward your child’s good performance. These all set the stage and invite kids to get excited to write.

A.Inspire ideas

B.Develop an interest.

C.Use the map to guide the writing.

D.Make the process into more of a game.

E.Maybe they lack experiences to write about

F.There are loads of fun ways to get children writing.

G.Encourage him to write a letter to the person in charge

    2019-nCoV, a cousin of the SARS virus, has infected more than 10000 people since the outbreak began in Wuhan, China, in December. Scientist Leo Poon, who first decoded the novel virus, thinks it likely started in an animal and spread to humans.

“What we know is that it causes pneumonia (肺炎) and then doesn’t respond to antibiotic (抗生素) treatment, which is not surprising, but then in terms of death rate, SARS kills 10% of the individuals,” Poon, a virologist at the School of Public Health at The University of Hong Kong, said.

2019-nCoV can make people sick, usually with a mild to moderate upper respiratory tract illness (上呼吸道疾病), similar to a common cold. Coronavirus symptoms include a runny nose, cough, sore throat, possibly a headache and maybe a fever, which can last for a couple of days. For those with a weakened immune system, the elderly, there’s a chance that the virus could cause a lower, and much more serious, respiratory tract illness like a pneumonia orbronchitis (支气管炎).

There are a handful of human coronaviruses that are known to be deadly.

Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (中东呼吸综合症), also known as the MERS virus, was first reported in the Middle East in 2012 and also causes respiratory problems, but those symptoms are much more severe. Three to four out of every 10 patients infected with MERS died, according to the CDC.

Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome, also known as SARS, is the other coronavirus that can cause more severe symptoms. First identified in Guangdong Province in southern China, according to the WHO, it causes respiratory problems but can also cause diarrhea (腹泻), fatigue (疲劳), shortness of breath, respiratory distress (呼吸窘迫) and kidney failure (肾衰). Depending on the patient’s age, the death rate with SARS ranged from 0-50% of the cases, with older people being the most vulnerable (易受伤害的).

Viruses can spread from human contact with animals. Scientists think MERS started in camels, according to the WHO. With SARS, scientists suspected civet cats were to blame.

When it comes to human-to-human transmission of 2019-nCoV, often it happens when someone comes into contact with the infected person’s secretions (分泌物). Depending on how virulent (有毒的) the virus is, a cough, sneeze or handshake could cause exposure. The virus can also be transmitted by touching something an infected person has touched and then touching your mouth, nose or eyes. Caregivers (护理人员) can sometimes be exposed by handling a patient’s waste, according to the CDC.

1.Which of the following can explain the underlined word “decoded”in paragraph 1?

A.found or discovered something.

B.put something into a code.

C.changed something into ordinary language.

D.changed something into a form that can be processed.

2.Which of the following statements is true?

A.Antibiotic treatment has some effect on 2019-nCoV.

B.2019-nCoV usually causes severe illness similar to a pneumonia or bronchitis.

C.Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia, MERS and SARS are all caused by corona viruses.

D.2019-nCoV spreads just by getting close to the infected person.

3.What type of writing is the passage?

A.An instruction. B.A news report.

C.An advertisement. D.A scientific paper.

Thinking is something you choose to do as a fish chooses to live in water. To be human is to think. But thinking may come naturally without your knowing how you do it. Thinking about thinking is the key to critical(批判性的)thinking. When you think critically, you take control of your thinking processes(过程). Otherwise, you might be controlled by the ideas of others. Indeed, critical thinking is at the heart of education.

     The word "critical" here has a special meaning. It does not mean taking one view against another view, as when someone criticizes another person for doing something wrong. The nature of critical thinking is thinking beyond the easily seen—beyond the pictures on TV, the untrue reports in the newspapers, and the faulty reasoning (错误的推理).

     Critical thinking is an attitude as much as an activity. If you are curious about life and desire to dig deeper into it, you are a critical thinker; if you find pleasure in deep thinking about different ideas, characters, and facts, you are a critical thinker.

Activities of the mind and higher-order reasoning are processes of deep and careful consideration. They take time, and do not go hand in hand with the fast speed in today's world, fast foods, instant coffee, and self-developing film. If you are among the people who believe that speed is a measure of intelligence, you may learn something new from a story about Albert Einstein. The first time Banish Hoffman, a scientist, was to discuss his work with Albert Einstein, Hoffman was too nervous to speak. But Einstein immediately put Hoffman at ease by saying, "Please go slowly, I don't understand things quickly."

1.Critical thinking is important to us because if we do not think critically,__________.

A.it will be hard for us to think naturally and fast

B.we will follow the ideas of others naturally

C.we might be controlled by other people's ideas

D.we might be fooled by other people's ideas

2.If you are a critical thinker, you will________.

A.criticize other people for their mistakes B.trust the reports in the newspapers

C.take one view against another view D.think deeply about different ideas

3.In the last paragraph, "something new" suggests that________.

A.the smarter you are, the faster you do things

B.intelligence is not decided by speed

C.speed can improve intelligence

D.the faster you do things, the smarter you become

4.What would be the best title for the passage?

A.Understanding Critical Thinking B.Thinking and Critical Thinking

C.Thinking Natural and Human D.Thinking Fast Means Intelligence

    I grew up in a home with a mother who believes that vaccines (疫苗) cause brain damage, and do not contribute to the health and safety of a society. The only shot I received was for tetanus (破伤风) when I was two months old. After that, nothing.

At the beginning of each school year, I was very nervous. Delayed term paper? Mischievous (捣蛋的) behavior? Late for school? None of them. I’d be pulled out of class and brought to the headmaster’s office. The school doctor would tell me I hadn’t received any of the necessary shots to attend school. But the same thing occurred each time: my mom would free me from the shots and nothing would happen.

After doing a lot of research, I found although people who don’t vaccinate their children make up only a relatively small group, they can cause major consequences. People who, for health or age reasons, cannot receive vaccines are at a higher risk of catching a preventable disease.

Eventually, I turned 18. In Ohio, where I live, I had to wait until I became a legal adult to make the decision to receive vaccine shots. A huge factor in taking the step to ensure my health was the message board website Reddit. Last November, I asked Reddit users for advice about what vaccines to ask for and how to go about getting them from a doctor. After my post received more than 1,000 comments, I made an appointment with my family physician. Despite how strongly my mother felt, I went through with it anyway.

I did something every person should do. It wasn’t special in any way. Vaccines protect the health and safety of not only yourself but also other people. Vaccination is important because someone could die if you don’t get vaccinated. This was the biggest reason I got vaccines despite the opposition.

1.Why was the author called to the headmaster’s office at the beginning of each school year?

A.He was late for school.

B.He didn’t behave himself at school.

C.He couldn’t hand in his term paper on time.

D.He was hardly ever vaccinated.

2.How might the author’s mother have felt about his appointment with the family physician?

A.Annoyed. B.Grateful.

C.Thrilled. D.Guilty.

3.What does the author mainly want to tell us through his story?

A.Listening to your mother pays off.

B.Doing the right thing matters.

C.Keeping fit is the best policy.

D.Asking for advice helps.
