第四部分 写作

第一节 短文改错

第二节 书面表达

一、样文参考

Dear Sir/Madam,

I'm Li Hua, a Chinese student taking summer courses in your university. I'm writing to ask for help. I came here last month and found my courses interesting. But I have some difficulties with note-taking and I have no idea of how to use the library. I was told the Learning Center provides help for students and I'm anxious to get help from you. I have no class on Tuesday mornings and Friday afternoons. Please let me know which day is OK with you. You may email or phone me. Here are my email address and phone number: lihua@1236.com; 12345678.

Look forward to your reply.

Yours,

Li Hua

二、语言剖析

1. 词汇分析

① take summer courses表示“学习暑期课程”。

② have no idea表示“不知道，不了解”，可用于替换“I don't know”的常见表达方式。

③ anxious为形容词，表示“焦急的，渴望的，令人焦虑的”，常见表达方式为be anxious about，例如：外交部长承认对于该国的局势他仍然颇感忧虑。

The foreign minister admitted that he was still anxious about the situation in the country.

④ email此处用作动词，表示“给…发电子邮件”。

2. 句型分析

I came here last month and found my courses interesting.

该句句型为find +宾语+宾补，又如：

他发现这篇课文很难理解。

He found the text difficult to understand.

我发现这是一部乏味的电影。

I found it a boring film.

当他醒来时，他发现自己在医院里。

When he woke up, he found himself in the hospital.

三、全文评析

本题为求助信，实用性很强。要写好这篇文章，需要从已给出的四条中文要点入手，还需加上自己的合理发挥。其中，“求助内容”和“约定时间”需自己发挥，考查考生合理组织英文的能力，因此交代好前因后果显得尤为重要。建议考生在平时的写作练习中将要点先写在草稿纸上，理清它们之间的关系，最后再连点成线，就不愁拿不到高分了。

这是一篇不错的题目，不但可以拉开学生的分数档次，而且对学生想象力的考查也比较到位。
