倘若你是李华,计划暑假期间去英国学英语为期六周。下面的广告引起了你的注意。请给该校写一封信,询问有关状况。(箭头所指内容)
注意:1.词数100左右
2.可以适合增加细节,以使行文流畅。
参考词语:住宿—accommodation
【思路点拨】
李华计划暑假期间去英国学英语为期六周,看到广告后自己感觉有一些问题广告里不了解,想要给校方写信咨询有关事情,考生要了解这是一封信,要符合信的格式。这是考生很熟知的一个应用文文体。考生应该注意动词时态的变化,以一般目前时为主,兼有以后时,譬如:功课什么时间开始?这是以后的事情。注意适合用一些连词,使文章自然、流畅。用一些高级句型和词语来提升作文档次。
【范本赏析】
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am a student in China and I plan to go to Britain to attend a summer school during the vacation. I’ve seen your ad, and I’d like to know something more about your six-week English course. First, when will the course start and how many class hours are there per week? Besides, I wish there would not be too many students in a class. I’d also like to know how much I have to pay for the course and whether accommodation is included. Would there be host family or university dormitory?
I am looking forward to your early reply.
Yours faithfully,
Li Hua
【闪光点说明】
短文用了一些短语,增加了文章的色彩,如:plan to do sth ;would like to do sth; pay for; look forward to doing/sth等;用了一些过渡词如:First ;Besides等,使文章过渡自然;用了一些连词使句子结构复杂化不再单一。如:I’d also like to know how much I have to pay for the course and whether accommodation is included.并且wish后用了虚拟语气,增加了文章的闪光点。

Dear Peter,
I’m Li Hua, Chairman of the Student Union of Yucai Middle School. Thank you so much for inviting us to have a one-week communication activity at your school and I am writing to enquire about further details.
I am planning to take 10 members of our Student Union to go to your school next month, hoping to make good use of this opportunity to communicate and learn from each other. So I’d like to know what the best date of our arrival is. Above all, could you possibly send me a specific daily schedule of the activity in advance so that I can prepare better for the trip? Last but not least, this being our first experience to go to America, would you be kind enough to offer some suggestions on what necessities we specially need to take with us?
We are really excited and looking forward to the activity. I would appreciate it if you could give me a favorable reply at your earliest convenience.
Yours sincerely,

Dear Joe,
I’ve been indulged in the phone games and internet novels and I don’t know how to deal with it. Thus I’m writing to ask you for some advice.
Trapped into a virtual world, I can barely concentrate on my study, which has caused bad marks for several times. Aware of the harm they have done to me, I have made an effort to avoid these evil things. However, I failed without firm determination. I just can’t tear myself away from my smart phone. Then it struck me that I’d like to turn to you for help after your class, I will appreciate it a lot if you could tell me how American students strike a balance between study and entertainment and offer me some suggestions. I guess different methods may make a big difference.
I’m longing for your advice and sorry to bother you.
Yours,
Li Hua
