In the modern world, when you need to write a letter or a report for work or school, you possibly first move toward the computer. Now, most people, if not all, reach out for (keyboard) way faster than they pick up their pens. But Mrs. Larry, a teacher in a British primary school, is taking a different road. She says that handwriting (be) still an important skill, so she requires her students to write not only by hand but also old-fashioned fountain pens.
Fountain pens (use) in schools long ago and have been more popular recently because they are refillable(可填充的). Today, a writer may (simple) throw an empty pen away and get new one.
So far, Mrs. Larry has been satisfied with the results of her experiment. She shows that her students are paying more attention to their work, and their self-confidence has improved as well. She is pleased with the (improve) she sees in her students' writing in her own writing. She knows that computers are here (stay) and that they will not disappear. However, she believes that the practice with fountain pens helps students to focus, to write faster, and they can feel proud of (they).
