Nowadays, with the growing popularity of computers, students were paying less and less attention to handwriting.
According to a recently survey, many students don’t want to improve their handwriting for various reason. 52 percent of them think that they can just use a computer, so it is no need to waste time improving our handwriting. 32 percent believe that they are too busy with the study that they have no time to practicing, and 16 percent think that practicing handwriting is useless.
As the saying went, writing style shows the man. Beautiful and neat handwriting is great help, especially for students. Therefore, in my opinion, the more importance should be attached to handwriting from now on.
(1)1.(get) rid of garbage problems, the city will load huge spaceships with waste materials 2. send them towards the sun, 3.(prevent) landfill and environmental problems.
All cars will be powered by electricity, solar energy or wind, and 4.will be possible to change the color of cars 5. the flick of a switch.
(2)Li Hua and Wang Hai are two students of Senior Three. 6.of them work hard but they have various learning methods.
Li Hua listens to her teachers7.(attentive) and asks her teacher 8.help as soon as possible if she has some problems. Because of this, she spends less time 9.(do) her homework, so it is10.(certainly) that she can keep energetic in the day. However, Wang Hai has quite a11. (difference) way of learning 12.(compare) to Li Hua. He likes to sit up late at night doing his homework, so he often feels sleepy in class.

In my opinion, Li Hua learns more effectively in class and has more free time to enjoy herself. So I prefer15.(she) learning method.
