【真题解析】
首先就审题而言,诸考生们需要掌握应用文题型的审题技巧,以更快、更有效地掌握关键信息,节约做题时间。
1. 常规性规定部分
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)
本部分规定的内容与前两年的规定内容基本一致。对于此部分,考生们只需在审题时关注一个内容即可,即应用文的署名。本题中规定为“Li Ming”,而这也是应用文考查历史中经常使用的署名规定内容。
2. 规定情景部分
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.
一般而言,对于应用文的规定情景部分,考生们需要从中抓取四个关键信息:应用文类型、书信类型(如果应用文类型为书信)、收信人、应用文内容。
(1)应用文类型
就近十几年的应用文考查历史来看,应用文的考查类型基本分为两种:书信和通知。本题中,明确出现了letter这一个关键词,可确定本题要求书写的应用文类型为书信。
(2)书信类型
本题中,明确含有一个关键词:apology,可初步判断书信类型为道歉信;其次,再结合此部分的内容(忘记将房东Bob的音乐CD还给他了)来看,说明可确定本题要求写的书信类型确实为道歉信。
(3)收信人
本题的规定情景部分中,明确说明“him”,也就是说收信人为Bob。根据之前所写文章中收信人的格式使用情况,对于收信人,本题中已知其名字,故而本题中收信人可用“Dear Bob,”。
(4)应用文内容
本题中规定书信内容为:make an apology, and suggest a solution,即做出道歉并提出补偿方案。
其次,在已知本题规定写作类型为道歉信后,根据之前文章中所解析的道歉信的写作方法,再结合本题的内容要求,本应用文内容可为:
提出道歉,简述事由;
具体经过,补偿方案;
再表道歉,表示期待。
【参考范文】
Dear Bob,
I am writing to express my apology to you, because I had forgotten to return your music CD
before I came back.
Several days ago, I borrowed it when I lived in your house. Unfortunately, just now I found it in my luggage. I was in such a hurry that I forgot to return it to you. To make up for the problem, I will send it to you by post or express as soon as possible. If necessary, I will compensate for any troubles it may cause.
Once again, I feel so sorry for any inconvenience caused. Please accept my sincere apologies.
Sincerely yours,
Li Ming
