Planning is the first stage in writing. Even when we plan a text or a short note,we first think about what we’re going to say.
Planning your writing is thinking about what you’re going to write before you write it. |
The importance of planning
There are many benefits(好处) to planning your writing. It helps you to:
●come up with new ideas
●record your ideas
●organise your thoughts
●check that you have all the information you need
Think about the possible advantages(优势) to planning.
What to think about when planning
When planning your writing, think about why you’re writing, and who you’re writing to.
The reason you’re writing is your purpose(目的) for writing. The audience is the person or the people you are writing to. Every time you write something, think about your writing purpose and your audience. If you’re writing a report for your work supervisor(管理者),you may need to plan what you say carefully to make sure you've included all your points,and that your writing is as clear as possible.
The writing process(过程)
Writing may be done alone or together with one or more people. You may want to write by hand or you may prefer(偏爱) word-processing it. Using a computer can be helpful when you want to make changes to your text, as you can re-draft(改写) using the‘copy’,‘cut’and‘paste’functions, which saves you from writing your text out again in full.

Every year on 15th October, over 200 million people around the world take part in Global Handwashing Day. But why do we have a day for something we do all the time? Well, research shows that not enough people often wash their hands with soap. It is believed that this leads to the deaths of millions of people every year.
What’s more, the study from the US Department of Agriculture shows most people failed to wash their hands and rub (擦) with soap for 20 seconds. That’s the amount of time recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which says that washing for shorter periods means fewer germs (细菌) are washed off.
The study also states that quite many people didn’t dry their hands with a clean towel or air dryer.
Sidibe, a public health officer says soap is the most beautiful invention in public health. Washing your hands with soap can have a huge impact on reducing the spread of diseases. It can also prevent babies from getting ill and keep children healthy.
However, washing hands with soap does not happen as often as you might think. For many people, handwashing is simply not part of their everyday life. It’s not easy to get people to change habits they learned in early childhood.
So what’s the right way to wash hands? There are some tips:
Step 1: Wet hands with clean, running water.
Step 2: Turn off the tap and apply soap after wetting hands with water.
Step 3: Rub hands together with the soap for at least 20 seconds. Be sure to rub the backs of hands, between fingers, and under fingernails.
Step 4: Wash hands well under clean, running water.
Step 5: Dry hands with a clean towel or air dryer.
In 2008 the Indian sports team joined around 100 million Indian schoolchildren in washing their hands with soap on the first ever Global Handwashing Day. Since then, many different events have been held around the world every year.
