Dysgraphia: More Than Just Bad Handwriting(1/2)
【我的翻译与总结】
People who have unusual difficulty with reading, writing, listening or working with numbers might have a learning disability. We talked last week about a reading disorder, dyslexia. Today we discuss a writing disorder, dysgraphiai.
那些在读、写、听或与数字打交道方面有特殊困难的人可能患有学习障碍。上周我们讨论了有关阅读障碍,即诵读困难方面的问题。今天,我们来讨论一下书写障碍,即书写困难。
Writing is not an easy skill. Not only does it require the ability to organize and express ideas in the mind. It also requires the ability to get muscles in the hands and fingers to form those ideas, letter by letter, on paper.
书写并不是一项简单的技能。它不仅要求人们在大脑中有组织和表达思想的能力,还要求人们具有用手和手指的肌肉将那些思想逐字地表达在纸上的能力。
Experts say teachers and parents should suspect dysgraphia if a child's handwriting is unusually difficult to read. Letters might be sized or spaced incorrectly. Capital letters might be in the wrong places. The child's hand, body or paper might be in a strange position. These can all be signs of dysgraphia. Spelling problems can also be related to the disorder.
专家认为,如果一个孩子的笔迹很难认定,老师和父母就应该认为他可能会患有书写困难。字母大小不一、间距不等;大写字母不在正确的地方;孩子的手、身体和纸的位置不对,这些都可能是书写困难的表现。拼写问题同样也可能与这种紊乱有关。
Many people have poor handwriting, but dysgraphia is more serious. Dysgraphia is a neurological disorder that generally appears when children are first learning to write. Writing by hand can be physically painful for people who have it.
许多人的字迹很难看,但书写困难症则更为严重。书写困难是一种神经性紊乱,通常出现在孩子每一次学习书写的时候。那些患有书写困难症的人用手写字时可能会感到身体上的疼痛。
