A
Do you like writing by hand or with a keyboard?
A new brain research led by researchers at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology shows that choosing handwriting over using a keyboard results in better learning and memory.
"When you write your shopping lists or notes by hand you simply remember things better after some time." said Audrey van der Meer, author of the study.
The study was done using equipment(设备)to track(跟踪) and record brain wave activity. 12 young adults and 12 children took part in the study. Each person was asked to write by hand and type on a keyboard while wearing a special cap with over 250 electrodes(电极). The sensors(传感器) in the electrodes picked up the electrical activity that took place in the brain. Each examination took 45 minutes per person.
The results show that the brain in both young adults and children is much more active when writing by hand than when typing on a keyboard. According to Van der Meer plenty of senses become active by pressing a pen on paper, seeing the letters written and hearing the sound made while writing. These build connection between different parts of the brain, opening the brain up for learning.
Van der Meer believes that the results show the importance of children's learning to draw and write at an early age, especially at school. “Learning to write by hand is a bit slower course, but it's important for children to experience the tiring step of learning to write by hand.” she said.
The hand movements are good for us in many ways. “If you use a keyboard, you use the same movement for each letter. Writing by hand requires control of your fine motor(精细动作) skills and senses. It’s important to put the brain in a learning state as often as possible.” Van der Meer added. “You might use a keyboard to write an article, but you should learn by hand during a class.”

B. The control of your fine motor skills and senses when you write.
C. The several ways to write an article and take notes during a class.

Anne was sitting in the mountains of the village. It was her last spring in the mountains because she would be leaving her aunt’s house to rejoin her family in Los Angeles. She had been staying to finish the sixth grade when her parents readied (为……做好准备) their new home.
There was another girl who was drawing beside her.
“Is this your Thinking Place too?” Anne asked. The other girl nodded and smiled. There was a piece of sadness, Anne realized, in that girl’s blue eyes.
Then the girl’s question came, “What are you thinking about?”
UI love this place,” Anne said. This was the truth, and it was all that the other needed to hear. A comforting (令人安慰的) arm reached around Anne’s shoulder.
“Me, too.”
“What are you thinking about?” asked Anne, remembering the sadness in the blue eyes.
“My family is moving to somewhere in Los Angeles. But I knew no one there.” Anne became happy. She told the girl she was moving back to Los Angeles. The girl became happy, too. They kept talking and found they had a lot in common.
Then it was time for Anne to go back to her aunt’s house. She looked back at her new friend, standing on the rocks in the mountains, and then examined the drawing. It showed the power of their new friendship and the Thinking Place in swirls (螺旋形) of bright color. The girl gave it to Anne as a gift.
