Wang Fang 写作分析：
本次写作任务是要求学生写一封回信，一般来说需要写信人对来信中的一些问题做出答复或回应。

因此，写回信时应正确理解写信人的意图、所提出的问题，并给出明确的答复，信件的措辞要注意考虑目的读者的感受。

本次写作要求新老师的情况，属于人物介绍类的写作。

说到人物介绍，同学们通常会想到通过描写人物的肖像、性格、语言、动作等来刻画人物，也可以通过叙述日常生活中的一件事、自己的经历，甚至是心理活动来体现人物特征。

无论是采用较为细致的细节描写还是通过叙述事件来介绍人物，同学们都要注意突出人物的某一方面的特征。

本次写作可以介绍某一个老师，从多个角度重点介绍；也可以介绍新接触的若干老师，采取并列的手法，但要抓住每个老师的不同特点。

人物介绍类的文章常用的词汇和表达有：
1. 外貌类：brown eyes，straight nose，charming eyes, shining eyes, beautiful, pretty, handsome, lovely, attractive, etc. 性格类：cute，optimistic, knowledgeable, easy-going, outgoing, selfless, gentle, humorous, active, quiet, strict, patient,
kind-hearted, determined, respectful.
2. She is a lovely girl, with a round face, big eyes, white teeth and long wavy hair.
3. He is tall and thin and is wearing a pair of thick glasses.
4. His favorite sport is …
5. be good at/ do well in …
6. He was strict with everybody and in everything he did.
范文一：
Dear Mary，
I was glad to receive your letter. I would like to tell you about my new teacher.
Miss Li is our history teacher and she has a sense of responsibility. One day before her class, we were told that Miss Li had fallen ill and that we had to study by ourselves that day. However, after a while, the door opened and Miss Li was leaning against the doorframe, looking tired and pale. "I'm alright," she said in a weak voice. "The mid-term exam is coming, and you shouldn't miss a single class. Don't worry. I'll go to see the doctor after the class." Hearing this, we were all moved, and everyone was very attentive during that class.
How is your new school and your teachers? Do you like them? I'm looking forward to your reply.
Yours,

本篇习作切合题意、中心突出、感情真切、语言流畅。

开头首先指明老师的突出特点---责任感强。

然后通过一个事例来证明老师的这种精神品质，一个坚强而又有责任感的教师形象跃然纸上。

同时，文章对老师的动作、神态和语言的描写也恰到好处，如"leaning against the doorframe"，"looking tired and pale"和"she said in a low voice"等，让我们不禁也对这位爱岗敬业的老师肃然起敬。

范文二：
Dear Mary:
I was glad to receive your letter. I would like to tell you something about my new teachers.
I'm so fortunate to have two new teachers this semester. My new English teacher, Daniel, who is a handsome gentleman, impresses me most. Although he has just graduated from university, his wide knowledge and humorous language attract me so much that I'm always eager to have his class. Miss Wang is the maths teacher and she is helpful, patient and strict with us. She also has a good sense of humor, which makes her class very interesting. With these new teachers, I firmly believe that I can make rapid progress.
How is your new school and your teachers? Do you like them? I'm looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
