__________________________________________________________________________________________ 正确答案:(正确答案: Dear Mr. Wang, I appreciate you for hiring me two months ago as an editor for your magazine Designs & Fashions. I really cherish the opportunity of being your employee and working with these colleagues here. The amazing experience will be unforgettable in my whole life. However, as a young man who takes an interest in starting his own business rather than fashion designing, I find the job I am doing now doesn\"t fall in with my previous training and strength. As a result, I decide to quit this job and engage in my own business. Please accept my sincerest and deepest apology for any inconvenience my leaving may incur. I hope you can find a more suitable person for the position. Yours truly, Li Ming)
解析:解析: 写作指令要求考生根据规定的情景给上级写一封辞职信,考查考生对应用文写作的格式、语体等相关知识的把握。从语域角度而言,写给上级的信件语言应正式、规范,语气应委婉。此外,虽然写作指令中并没有规定要致谢,但按照英文辞职信格式的要求,信件的开头应该首先表达谢意。信的正文部分可分三段来写:表达自己受聘后的感激之情——提出辞职的原因——表达歉意。需要注意的是,有关辞职的原因不宜过多,一两个为宜。

__________________________________________________________________________________________ 正确答案:(正确答案: Dear Sir or Madam, I\"m writing to seek an opportunity to contribute to Project Hope by offering financial aid to a child in a remote area. I would be more than happy if you could recommend a candidate. The will-be beneficiary should meet the following requirements. First, he or she must demonstrate eagerness to learn. Second, it will be better if the child comes from a poverty-stricken family, which leaves him or her unable to continue school. I am going to set aside money from my scholarship to cover her tuition fees. During the vacation, I will invite her to Beijing to give her more personal help. Thank you for your patience. I\"m looking forward to hearing from you soon. Yours sincerely, Li Ming)
解析:解析: 本部分满分10分,考生平均得分5.25分。本年度小作文要求考生写一封书信,请求希望工程推荐一名边远地区儿童作为捐助对象,因此语气要严肃、礼貌,不能因为准备慷慨解囊就一副屈尊俯
就的语气。总体来说,希望工程是考生非常熟悉的话题,95年的考研作文就曾以此为题。考生可采用典型的三段论写法:首先提出请求,明确表达写信的意图;第二段具体说明希望援助什么样的儿童,描述其特点;第三段则讲述如何实施资助计划来帮助该名儿童。
5.Write a letter to your university library, making suggestions for improving its service. You should write about 100 words on ANSWER SHEET 2. Do not sign your own name at the end of the letter. Use \" Li Ming\" instead. Do not write the address. (10 points) (分数:2.00)
__________________________________________________________________________________________ 正确答案:(正确答案: Dear Sir or Madam/Librarian, As a regular reader of the library, I have benefited a lot from your excellent service. However, I do find, in the meantime, there is still room for improvement. Firstly, the library should cancel the lunch break so that students can take fuller advantage of its resources. Secondly, set up an outdoor drop-off slot for books to save the readers from returning books to the librarian. Moreover, the library can launch an email service to remind readers of the books a-vailable for lending and the books due to expire. Thank you for your reading and I\"m looking forward to finding some changes in our library soon. Sincerely yours, Li Ming)
解析:解析: 题目要求考生写一封建议信。根据写作要求,收信对象为某大学图书馆。鉴于收信人姓名不详,开头可参照常用写法:Dear Sir or Madam/Librarian,结尾可用Sincerely yours/Yours sincerely等。图书馆与考生的学习生活息息相关,这比较利于考生发挥。考生可从多个方面提出建议,只要内容合理即可。 第一段:先对图书馆的服务表示感谢,继而点明主题,即图书馆的服务质量有待改善。 第二段:联系实际生活,指出图书馆可以改进的地方,如设置外部还书处、启用电子邮箱服务等。由于提出建议的目的是让对方高度重视并采取相应措施,不可采取批评的态度或使用生硬的语气。 第三段:以感谢、希望和期待的语句结束。
6.You have just come back from Canada and found a music CD in your luggage that you forgot to return to Bob, your landlord there. Write him a letter to 1. make an apology, and 2. suggest a solution. You should write about 100 words on ANSWER SHEET 2. Do not sign your own name at the end of the letter. Use\" Li Ming\" instead. Do not write the address. (10 points) (分数:2.00)
__________________________________________________________________________________________ 正确答案:(正确答案: Dear Bob, As unpacking the luggage this morning, I found the music CD which I should have returned to you before I left for China. I feel very sorry for my carelessness. As you know, I was overwhelmed by piles of work while in Canada, leaving me insufficient time to pack up. Had I paid more attention then, I wouldn\"t have made such a stupid mistake. I intend to send the CD back to you via Express Mail. Please let me know your most accessible address at your earliest convenience. Please accept my apology for any inconvenience my o-versight caused. Yours truly, Li Ming)
解析:解析: 今年的应用文是一篇道歉信,根据写作提示,除道歉外,还需要交代道歉的缘由,并提出相应的建议。今年的题目实为2005年道歉信和2007年建议信的结合体,但鉴于今年是一封私人书信,语气不可过于正式,开头部分不宜出现“I am writing to express my apology to you”之类的句式。 第一段:首先表示歉意,继而说明原因——由于匆忙,把CD带回了国内。 第二段:提出解决方案,譬如用快递将CD寄回、在网上为对方重新购买等。建议不可过多,一至两条为宜。 第三段:再次为自己的疏忽表示歉意。
7.Part BDirections: Write an essay of 160-200 words based on the following information. __________________________________________________________________________________________ 解析:
8.Write an essay of 160 ~200 words based on the following pictures. In your essay, you should 1. describe the pictures briefly, 2. interpret the meaning, and 3. give your comments. You should
write neatly on the ANSWER SHEET. (20 points)(分数:2.00)
__________________________________________________________________________________________ 正确答案:(正确答案: As is depicted in the left picture, with the television on, a father is smoking on the sofa and asking his son to work hard, leaving the boy frowning helplessly. However,the right picture depicts a father and a son immersed in their work respectively, both seemingly content with each other\"s company. The caption below the pictures implies that example is better than precept. Incontestably, the pictures shed light on the importance of examples. A fine example has infinite power, which is particularly true in the relationship between parents and children. Family is the most basic unit of education, where parents, the first mentors of their children, should practice what they preach. One reason is that kids like to imitate adults and their thinking process is characterized by concrete images; thus setting examples for kids to follow is more productive. Another reason is that actions speak louder than words. If parents make various requests that they themselves fail to fulfill, how can they ask their children to do so? As the saying goes, \" Parents are the mirror of children. \" Therefore, they should match words with deeds and set good examples for their children, so as to keep that \"mirror\" bright and clean all the time.)
解析:解析: 根据图中文字信息可知,画中人物为父子关系。左图中,叼着香烟的父亲正倚在沙发上悠闲自得地看电视,却要求儿子好好学习,而儿子的面部表情颇具深意;右图中的父亲则以身作则,和儿子一同伏在桌前,认真学习。显然,两位父亲截然不同的表现是这组图画的关键。正如“与其只提要求,不如做个榜样”所述,父母在对孩子提出要求时,应该先审视一下自己是否能够做到。“身教胜于言传”正是这幅图画的寓意。具体写作时,考生可先点明主题,再联系切身实际,论述身教为何会胜于言传。 第一段:描述图画,提炼主题。应将图中两位父亲截然不同的表现作为描述重点,至于“与其只提要求,不如做个榜样”这一信息,无需逐字译出,将其提炼为能体现主题的文字即可。 第二段:围绕主题展开深层分析。首先表明立场——父母应该树立榜样,以身作则;继而分析这样做的原因,如孩子总是会模仿父母、行动比语言更有说服力等。 第三段:总结评论。呼吁父母言行一致,做好子女的明镜。
