For most students, the time before exams is very stressful and difficult.    1    If exams really make you anxious or worried, you don't need to hide your feelings. Talk to someone about it. How to get through an important test? Here is some advice.

VI. Reading Expression（共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分）

Now students' English handwriting gets worse and worse. That makes their teachers feel worried. Is your English handwriting beautiful? If not, here are some steps that really work!

◆Use paper with lines

Using paper with lines can keep you writing straight instead of up or down when you write English words or sentences. 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, slowing down 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 pencil right

When you hold your pencil in the correct way, writing is much easier. Some kids press down really hard when they write. That makes the handwriting not nice. Try to be relaxed and don't hold the pencil 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 some 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. 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!

41. You can write straight instead of up or down when writing English on the paper_________  _________.

42. _________  _________ will make it easy to read handwriting while writing too fast makes it hard to stop and even leads to making more mistakes.
