【精彩表达】taking part in;not only…but also…, …which is important to their further studyand a bright outlook; Outgoing and energetic, I can…; As to…; correspondingly; I will be grateful if…
【错误纠正】①冠词使用错误,应改为an。activity首字母发音为元音,故用冠词an。
②for改为to, “对……有好处”应用短语do good to。
③be tired with意为“因……而感到劳累”,考生在此处要表达的是“因……而感到厌倦”,应使用be tired of。
④短语错误,应改为most importantly,用副词做状语起补充说明的作用。
⑤improve 应使用过去分词形式作get的表语,get done表示被动。
【唯美范文】
Dear Sir or Madam,
I’m Li Hua from Class One, Senior Twoof Chenguang Middle School. As far as I am concerned, I believe to teach English for pupils from Chenxi Hope School will be good for both the primary-school students and high-school student tutor, which thus will result in substantial social benefits.
I think I am qualified for being the pupils’ English coach, because I have a good character, being independent in life and proficient in English. That’s why I apply for the position; I hope I can join the instructive activity.
My plan for coaching the pupils is to teach them by listening, speaking, reading and writing. What’s more important is to stimulate their interests in learning English as a foreign language, creating a good learning environment. I hope you can offer the opportunity.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
第二节 推荐信
一、写作指导
推荐信的基本功能是说明被推荐人的性格、能力和品行,评估申请人是否具备未来发展的必要的学术或专业资格。推荐信必须由具有公信力的人撰写才有信服力。推荐人必须诚实,且推荐信内容均需以事实为依据。好的推荐信应当由具备相当知名度且与申请人熟识的人撰写。申请人的长官、同事或学校里的老师是最佳人选。但是在高中英语写作中的推荐信多为自荐信。自荐信即自己推荐自己,多用在求职或上学中,作者本人要对自己的情况实事求是地进行描述,不夸大其词。
二、常用句型
推荐信写作的常用句型有如下几类:
(1)I am very pleased to write this letter of recommendation to support his application.
我非常高兴写这封推荐信,以此来支持他的申请。
(2)I am very delighted to have been asked to write this letter of recommendation for …
我非常高兴被邀请给……写这封推荐信。
(3)I had enough opportunities to observe him in many ways.
我有大量的机会从多方面观察他。

【思路点拨】文体类型:自荐信。
时态定位:一般现在时。
得分点分析:
(1)对夏令营的理解;
(2)说明自己的优势及参加活动的目的;
(3)语气要委婉客气。
【学生写作实况】
Dear Sir,
I’m Li Hua from Fujian, aged19. The moment I saw the advertisement, I’m deeply impressed bythe subject and I’m eager to join you.
The purpose of this activity is meaningful. As we are living in one world, we have to learn to live together ①peaceful with various people. It’s important to get on well with②theothers. Only in this way can welive better. Besides, I think the Summer Camp offers me a chance to practice my fluent English with my foreign kids to deal with. I’ll be more patient and ③carefully with my work. What’s more, I’m sure I’ll develop myself a lot to adapt tothe society.
As forme, a Senior Three student, I love English and ④bewith others together.
I’d appreciate it ifI could⑤be admitted bythe group. And I am looking forward to your reply.
【名师评析】本文内容完整,表达详细,条理清晰。用词丰富多彩,过渡词用法准确,语气委婉,符合自荐信的要求。only引起的倒装句以及“I’d appreciate it if ...”句型为本文的亮点句子,值得借鉴。
【精彩表达】the moment起连词作用,引导时间状语从句;be deeply impressed by...;be eager to do;get on well with sb.;only in this way can we ...,only加状语放在句首时主句采用倒装形式;besides;adapt to;what’s more;as for sb.;“I’d appreciate it if ...”句型等。
【错误纠正】①peaceful应改为peacefully;应该用副词修饰动词live。
②去掉the。加the是学生易犯的错误。错误原因:“the other +名词”特指“其他的……”;“other+名词”(泛指“其他的……”),others为代词。
③carefully应改为careful。此处与形容词patient并列,在句中作表语,所以也应该用形容词形式。
④be应改为being。错误原因:与前面的English 并列,用动名词形式做love的宾语。
⑤by应为to。错误原因:“被录取”很容易记成be admitted by,属学生易错之处。
【唯美范文】
Dear sir,
I’m Li Hua from Fujian. When I was reading the advertisement, the aim of this activity impressed me greatly, I think it instructive to learn to live together by living together. It is a good opportunity for the only child like me to learn to share and work together. Therefore I recommend myself to you without hesitation.
As a boy of 17, I am outgoing, good at English and have experience of working well with children aged from 7 to 12, I think it is a kind ofwin-win activity. For one thing, I can help take care of the children. For another thing, I can improve my English, make more friends, and enrich my life during the summer vacation.
I am looking forward to your early reply.
Sincerely yours,
Li Hua

Dear Mr. Brown,

Li Hua
【思路点拨】时态定位:一般现在时和一般过去时。
得分点分析:
(1)表达感谢之情;
(2)提出需要帮忙的事情。
【学生写作实况】
Dear Mr. Brown,
I really appreciate the help you ①offered me in America. And I’m sorry to bother you again, for I have left an English dictionary in your house by carelessness. It is a gift from an American teacher, which ②means very preciousto me. Therefore I will be very grateful if you can send it back. There is much possibility that it still remains on the bookshelf ③in bedroom. Its cover has a bright color so you will find it ④easy. By the way, the postage will be paid by me. It is very kind ⑤foryou to do so.
Best wishes
Yours,
Li Hua
【名师评析】语言表达简明、准确,用委婉客气的语气表达了写信的目的。对各种从句的使用灵活、有效。
【精彩表达】Itis a gift from an American teacher, which means...;I will be very grateful if you ...;There is much possibility that...
【错误纠正】①动词offer使用错误。这里讲的是在美国期间发生的事情,是过去发生的事,所以使用一般过去时态,故offer应改改为offered to me。
②本句在使用定语从句的过程中出现了语法错误,动词means之后不可以跟形容词,所以means very precious应调整为means a lot。
③此处在名词bedroom前丢了冠词,应改为in the bedroom。
④修饰动词find应使用副词,所以easy应改为easily。
⑤此处应使用介词of。It’s kind of sb. to do sth为固定搭配, kind是用来形容sb.的,意思为“某人这么做真是太善良了”。
唯美范文:
Dear Mr. Brown,
I’m now safely back home. Thank you very much for all the kindness I got from you during my stay. Hope everything is fine with you there.
Now I wonder whether I could ask a favor of you. When I came back, I suddenly realized that I had left my English dictionary behind at your place. It is a precious gift from my American teacher. Would you please be so kind as to send it back to me? I’ll pay for the postage. The dictionary must be on the bookshelf in my bedroom. It is the one with a red cover.
Thanks and all the best.
Yours,
Li Hua
