21、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.

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.

22、These days so many things are going digital, and books are too. People can buy e-books or cheap books online. This means that some bookstores have a hard time staying open. This isn’t a new problem, but things are finally starting to turn around.

Bookstore sales in the US went up 2.5 percent from 2014 to 2015, according to the US Census Bureau. They have found success by trying new things like holding events, adding a coffee shop and food and creating a fun experience for book lovers. “That’s what small bookstores have to offer,” Nicole Sullivan, owner of Denver’s Book Bar, told the Denver Post, “a more personalized（个性化的）experience and a sense of community.”

Also, bookstores are trying to bring in new shoppers in cool ways. The Shakespeare and Co. bookstore in New York is adding the Espresso Book Machine, which can print any book you want in five minutes at the store. This special machine can help people search for books easily.

And sometimes, if you can’t beat them, it’s okay to join them. Many stores like Second Story Books in Washington, DC, use online bookstores like Amazon to their advantage. They have two bookstores. People can pick out new books they like and enjoy themselves in the actual bookstores（实体店）. And they also sell books on Amazon to make more money.
