关于小作文,你需要知道:
1. 小作文没有英语一和英语二的区别!
2. 小作文即使都用一个套句也没有问题,因为句子可以固定格式。
3. 小作文展开段尽量不要自己给自己挖坑,写能写的东西。
小作文分类(并非很精确):
私人信函:dear + 名字,(若文中无提及,自己编一个)
如:dear mr. wang(2005年英语一), dear editor(2009年英语一), dear professor williams(2017年英语二), dear frank(2011年英语一), dear mary(2010年英语二)等。
公务信函:dear sir or madam, 或者写成dear sir/madam,
有些特例:dear friends(2012年英语一)/ dear classmates(2013年英语二)
2. 核心三段如何写?
通用手法
第一段:自我介绍+写信来意
第二段:核心段落(根据题干)
第三段:表示感谢或者表示道歉或者期盼回复
剩下根据功能句组合拼接即可。
注意:小作文光看是永远无法理解的,尝试写作五篇,立刻能理解!
3. 落款怎么办?
通用手法(格式:要不写在左边左对齐;要不写在右边右对齐)
