Instruction: Read the passage below carefully and choose correct answers to the questions that follow it.
Writing is one of the most important language skills that you should develop so as to succeed in your scademic activities. Because of this, English teachers are always advised to seriously teach this skill as careful as possible. You, as students, should also give more attention to the skill than ever before and practice it as regularly as possible.
The understanding is that the more you engage yourself in meaningful writing activities, the better you uchieve the skill. Of course, few scholars think that since it is the most challenging language skill of all others, it is difficult for several students to achieve it unless teachers provide them with differest supports such as explanations, model texts and guidance.
Currently, however, the widely accepted belief is that the less the teacher interferes with the students engagement in a variery of meaningful writing activities, the faster they achieve the skill. The understanding is that developing self-learning strategy is better than imitating a model text, learning about in and striving to produce the same type of text. Therefore, practicing writing with meaningful activities and checking the progress of one's skills as regular as possible can make most students reasonable and efficient writers.
