【正文】 onents claim that handwriting has bee out of time in our modern world. Typed words have bee a primary form of munication. Once a practical kill handwriting is no longer used by the vast majority of Americans. It is no longer taught in schools, and some claim that the time that it would take to teach it could be put to better use, for instance, by teaching the technical skills. But even in today39。s world there are still plenty of reasons to pick up a pen and apply it to paper. Many American institutions still require original signatures, for instance, signing for a registered letter and buying a house. And original signatures are much more difficult to forge(偽造) than their digital counterparts. There is also strong evidence that writing by hand is good for the mind. It activates a different part of the brain, and improves fine moving skills in young children. People also tend to remember what they write by hand more than what they type, and the process of writing by hand has been shown to stimulate ideas. Besides, studies have shown that kids who write by hand learn to read and spell earlier than those who don39。t. Not to mention, handwriting is pleasing, as is evidenced by the fact that no one has ever typed a love letter. And handwriting remains popular as an art form. Yes, we live in a modern world, but we live in a modern world that is based on fundamental values.（1）What did the teacher find in her class?

There were five girls who were members of the Danville High School basketball team—all of them starters. They were not in uniform to play that night and would not be on the team for the rest of this season. They were there to admit their breaking of team rules. They were there to support their coach39。s decision to take them off the team. They were there to let the town know there was a problem in their little munity that needed to be addressed. And they did it with sincere regret rather than defensiveness. While the school had been out for the New Year39。s holiday, the five girls had gone to the party with several of their friends. There was alcohol there. And they all drank some. Coach Rainville has a zero tolerance rule on drugs and alcohol for her members though it was a hard decision to make. When classes resumed and accounts of holiday parties were shared, rumors about the five girls began closing in on them. The coach said she couldn39。t back down on her rules. And the players—two junior students and three senior students—agreed. That night in the gym was part of their public support of the coach39。s decision. “We hope you will understand that we are not bad kids. What we did was definitely not worth it. We hope this event will make everyone realize that there is a big drug and alcohol problem in our munity,” one of the senior students said, “And if you work with us to try to solve this problem, you will help us feel that we have not been thrown off our basketball team for nothing.” The five left the floor to deafening applause. The team may not win another game this year. But they39。ve learnt something about personal responsibility, the effect of one39。s action on others, and honesty that will serve them well throughout life.（1）It can be inferred from the passage that the five girls who were kicked off the team were ________.
