Practical writing originated in the Shang Dynasty, and "Oracle Bone Inscriptions" was the earliest official writing. Later imperial edicts and customs clearance documents were applied texts.

During the Revolution of 1911 (19 1 1), practical writing began to reform, and official documents were written in vernacular for the first time, and punctuation marks also had new standards.

Practical writing is a style formed by human beings in long-term social practice. It is a tool for people to transmit information, handle affairs and exchange feelings. Some practical writing is also used as evidence and basis. With the development of society, people's communication in work and life is becoming more and more frequent, things are becoming more and more complicated, and the role of practical writing is becoming more and more important.
