  National Handwriting Day is on January 23rd. Its aim is to highlight the importance of the skill of handwriting. It is an important day in today’s world where people use a computer keyboard more than a pen or pencil. Some people are worried that in the future, handwriting might become a lost art. The Writing Instrument Manufacturers Association (WIMA) started National Handwriting Day in 1977. They chose January 23rd because this is the birthday of John Hancock, who was the first person to sign the American Declaration of Independence – one of the most important documents in America’s history. WIMA says: "National Handwriting Day is a chance for all of us to re-explore the purity and power of handwriting."
  全国书法日是每年的1月23日,为了让人们重视起书法技巧。在当今世界中,人们使用电脑的次数要多于使用铅笔和钢笔次数,这一节日更尤为重要。许多人担心将来的书法艺术将会失传。文具制作协会在1977年始创了该节日。他们选择1月23日是因为这天是约翰·汉考克的生日,他是第一个签署美国《独立宣言》的人。《独立宣言》是美国历史上所签署的最重要的文件之一。文具制作协会称:“全国书法日让我们有机会重新发现书法的纯洁和力量。
  Handwriting is like an art. We can use it to express ourselves and be creative. It is almost like a craft.Traditional teachers like to teach their students ‘penmanship’, rather than simply ‘writing’. A higher art form is calligraphy1. People can study how to write a single letter of the alphabet for many years. Everyone’s handwriting is unique. We only need to see the front of a letter to recognize the handwriting of someone we know. Some handwriting can be almost impossible to read. Doctors are famous for writing prescriptions  that look like gobbledygook or ancien thieroglyphics. Experts can even analyze our handwriting and explain what kind of personality we have. What does your handwriting say about you?
  书法就像是艺术。我们能够利用书法来表达情感,让人们变得更加富有创造力。书法就像是工艺品。传统老师喜欢教授学生“具有艺术风格的书法”而不是简单的写字。高等艺术被称之为书法。单个字也许就会花费多年的时间来学习。每个人的笔记是各不相同的。我们仅仅能够通过开头的几个字来认出我们所认识的人。许多笔记很难辨认。医生的处方笔记写得像天书,还有点像古代的象形文字。专家还能够从笔记中读出人们的性格。你的笔记能够告诉你什么呢?
  1.American Declaration of Independence 独立宣言
  Though all the signers of the American Declaration of Independence were men, this is considered sexists insome quarters, the GLM said, adding it is better to use the term founders.
  全球语言检测机构称:“虽然美国《独立宣言》的所有签名者都是男性,但在某些地区该认为“signer”带有性别歧视意味,”因此用“创始人founder ”一词更好。
  2.be impossible to 不可能
  It will be impossible to stop the flu from arriving, the authorities acknowledge, and hard to slow its spread.
  政府部门承认,想要杜绝流感是不可能的,要减缓传播速度也很难。
  3.be famous for 因…而著名
  For me, a girl does not need to be famous for me to like her. I do have my romantic moments but I am sensible. It is company that is important for me.
  对我来说,女孩不非得成名,我懂浪漫,但是我也很敏感。陪伴对我来说最重要。
