I wish to contribute to Project Hope by offering financial aid to a child in a remote area. Having conceived such a plan for a long period, I write this letter to request your help to recommend a candidate.
I wonder if it is convenient for you if two things concerning the child are taken into consideration. First, the child should come from Guizhou Province because I intend to help a child from my hometown. Second, it will be better if the child is a primary school student. Actually, I am good at teaching mathematics on elementary level.
My plan will be carried out as follows. First, I will remit at least 300 yuan in cash every month so as to reduce the financial burden of the family. More importantly, I decide to teach the child mathes and English in person during my summer vacation, which will surely be more beneficial to the child.
I really appreciate your help, and I look forward to your reply as soon as possible.
我非常感谢你们的帮助,希望尽快收到你们的回信。
Yours sincerely, Li Ming
【文章评析】 范文为齐头式格式,由于向政府部门提出申请,语气较为正式,称谓部分采用了比较正式的“To whom it may concern,”。之后第一段开门见山说意图,避免了一些浪费字数的套话。创作中采用了考研试题中较为重视的 “contribute”、 “conceive”、 “request”和 “recommend”四个动词。
第二段按议论文模式设定了段首句,并采用了经典的 “take…into consideration”词组。其后分层次介绍自己的想法,如儿童需来自贵州,因为自己也是贵州人,想帮助家乡的人。另外希望儿童正上小学,因为自己的擅长的数学知识或许可以用得上,可以为儿童辅导数学。此段中由于自己提出了要求,所以语言需要委婉和礼貌,使用了 “I wonder if it is convenient for you”以及 “it will be better if”等表达。
【大作文部分】 1)describe the photos briefly 2)interpret the social phenomenon reflected by them , and 3)give your point of view. 图片内容: 图一一个年轻小伙子在脸上画着 Beckham 字样. 图片下面汉字:把崇拜写在脸上. 图二这个小伙子在理发店理小贝的发型.图片下面汉字:花300元做个"小贝"头
As is vividly depicted in the photos above, Beckham, the handsome British football superstar, is enjoying a striking popularity among young people. In the first photo, Beckham’s name appears on a young man’s face. The caption indicates that worship for the idol is written on the face. In the second photo, this young man is doing Beckham’s chic hairstyle in a barbershop. We are informed that he is spending 300 yuan imitating his idol’s hairdo.
Undoubtedly, the photos have subtly reflected the social phenomenon that idol worship is prevalent among the youth nowadays. Beckham represents the image of sport hero whose handsome appearance and unparalleled football skills are passionately adored by all the sports fans. Likewise, several teenage girls won their fame overnight in The 2005 Super Girl Contest in China, which provoked nationwide noisy debates on the value and harm of admiring these idols. Generally speaking, young people are inclined to adore the people who excel in appearance, intelligence or talent.
In my opinion, idol worship, the thought-provoking social phenomenon, is a double-edged sword which can deeply influence the growth of young people. If we simply worship the idols by imitating their hairstyles or pursuing fashions unreasonably, the obsession will certainly waste us a great deal of money or time, endangering the efficiency of our work. On the contrary, we will lead a positive and fruitful life if we endeavor to improve ourselves by bridging the gap between our models and us. Therefore, the latter attitude should be adopted to direct our way of life. (255字)
