分析 本文为提纲类的书信作文，要求针对目前中学生整体书写水平下降的现象发表个人看法．要点都已经给出，描述要尽量选择简洁的语言，运用合适的语法规则和词汇把各要点都准确表述出．难点在于选择词汇和句型，可以灵活运用高级词汇和固定短语准确表述．审题时注意本文使用一般现在时，人称主要用第三人称，兼顾第二人称，表达个人观点时可以使用第一人称．
重要短语：
be regarded as被视为…；apply for申请；be supposed to do应该做；For one thing，…．For another，…一方面…，另一方面…；All in all总而言之，be of great significance非常有意义．
高分句型：
1．With computers widely used in many fields，more and more people now type everything on the computer
instead of writing on paper，which has caused the level of students'handwriting skills to drop sharply．这句中含有一个介词with的符合结构，在句中做原因状语；后面含有一个which引导的非限制性定语从句．
2．when you apply for a job and the manager asks you to fill a form，your handwriting is the first impression given to the manager．本句中含有一个when引导的时间状语从句；impression后面含有一个过去分词短语作后置定语．
3．All in all，practicing handwriting can help students improve both their bodies and minds，which is of great significance to their growth．本句中的主语为动名词短语practicing handwriting，后面是which引导的非限制性定语从句．

解答 With computers widely used in many fields，more and more people now type everything on the computer instead of writing on paper，which has caused the level of students'handwriting skills to drop sharply．（高分句型）（指出现象原因）
      Handwriting is regarded as a basic skill in society．It is one of the standards that measure a person's quality．For example，when you apply for a job and the manager asks you to fill a form，your handwriting is the first impression given to the manager．（高分句型）Perhaps you may fail to get the job just because of your poor handwriting．Therefore，it is necessary to better your handwriting．（分析重要性）
So in my opinion，we are supposed to hold handwriting contests，attend calligraphy class and keep on writing diary and so on．For one thing，it can improve students'handwriting skills and develop their interest in the art of calligraphy．For another，it can make students love Chinese characters．（提高方法）
       All in all，practicing handwriting can help students improve both their bodies and minds，which is of great significance to their growth．（高分句型）（指明意义）

点评 书信类短文的关键在于要点要全面包括，不能有遗漏和省略．同时注意谋篇布局的顺序，运用合适的连接词连接全文，同时选择高级的词汇和语法项目让文章更有文采．
