Letter Writing (信件写作)
Letters can be classified into formal and informal ones. Formal letters can be either formal impersonal or formal personal. For instance, a letter to the principle of a college explaining why you will be delayed is a formal impersonal letter. A letter to the father of a friend of your own age congratulating him or her on an examination success will probably be written as an informal letter(a personal letter). When you write a letter, you would better always bear in mind that the worst mistakes in letter writing are caused by mixing up the different kinds. Different occasions require
different treatment.
1.Formal Impersonal Letters(正式非私人信件)
Formal impersonal letters are written to get things done. They are written to firms and other organizations, to offices and departments, to employers of firms and to officials. Because of this they are often called “business letters”. For this reason, the rules of formal impersonal letter must be strictly obeyed. These letters should be business-like. Concentrate on the business you are trying to get done. Don?t bury it in irrelevant personal details. When you are writing a formal impersonal letter, be careful with handwriting, grammar, punctuation and spelling. You are writing to get something done, something that matters to you. So don?t your reader the impression that you are careless. See the following example:
Flat6, the Priory,
3 A Nevill Park,
Tunbridge Wells,
Kent TN4 8NW
30th October,2000 (2) The Project Director
Amazon Expedition,
8 Bell St.,
London WC3 5YA
(3) Dear Sir,
(4)I was very interested in your advertisement in today?s edition of The Evening Post and I should like to apply to be a member of the Amazon Expedition team.
I am twenty-three years old and have an honors degree in Botany from Bath University. Since leaving university I have been working in a research laboratory but my contract comes to an end in six weeks. I would particularly like to join the expedition for the opportunity it would give me to study the plant life of the area.
I enjoy several outdoor activities including rowing and rock climbing and I consider myself to be both fit and healthy enough to undertake such an expedition.
If you would like me to attend an interview, I would be come at any time convenient for you, as my employers have agreed to give me time off for the purpose.
I look forward to hearing from you.
(5) Yours faithful,
Signature
(6) Ma Xiaoguang
This is a typical formal impersonal letter (business letter). This kind of letter should be typewritten except the signature. It consists of six parts.
(1)Heading. The return address goes in the top right-hand corner of the page with the
date below it. Do not put your name above or near your address. Remember
always to use the postcode.( TN4 8NW)
(2)Inside address. Write the name of the receiver and the inside address on the left
and four to six lines below the return address.
(3)Salutation. Write the salutation on the left, two lines below the inside address and
follow it with a coma. The normal ways of naming the person you are writing to
are as follows:
If you know the name of the person ,you write :
Dear+ Mr.\ Mrs.\Ms+ Surname
If you don?t know the name of the person , you write:
Dear+ Sir or Madam
(4)Body. Start your letter on the left-hand side, underneath the name two lines below.
(5)Closing. Write the closing on the left-hand side, and follow it with a comma Yours
sincerely. If you have no idea of the person you are writing to, it is usual to use the form Yours faithfully.
(6)Signature. You should write your signature three or four lines down by closing by
hand. Below your signature you should print or type your name, so that the person who reads your letter is in no doubt about who you are.
A formal letter doesn?t need to be written in very formal languages these days. You should aim to express yourself in a clear and concise way and to avoid slang, idiomatic expression and abbreviations.
Formal personal letters(正式私人信件)
Formal personal letters are different from formal impersonal letters because the relationship between the writer and the reader is different and the letters are written about different kinds of things. The writer of a formal personal letters knows the reader personally. The purpose of the letter is to send a message from one person to another. You are not writing about a business or an official subject. The way you write the letter must show your reader that you are thinking if him or her in a personal way. Formal personal letters are formal, so, your letters should be properly set out and carefully written. This kind of letter often covers the following areas:
A invitation
B requests
C arrangements
D apology
E Congratulations
F thanks
Now see the following example:
Example
(1)Flat 3, Hartington House,
9 Hope Park Terrace
Edinburgh EH8 9JX
9 July, 2000
(2) Dear Mr. and Mrs. Seaton,
(3)Thank you very much for taking me with you on that splendid outing to London.
It was the first time that I had seen the Tower or any of the other famous sights. If I would gone alone, I could not have seen nearly as much, because I would not have known my way about.
The weather was splendid that day, which I thought was true. I still remember some people told me that Britain there is weather and no climate. During the same day, it may snow in the morning, rain at noon, shine in the afternoon and be windy before the night falls. So I think I was lucky.
I think the river trip was the best thing of all. London really came alive for me as we saw it from the Thames during that wonderful journey down to Greenwich. It was all tremendously exciting—a day that I shall never forget.
Thank you for giving me such a great birthday treat.
(4) Yours sincerely,
(5) (signature)
A formal personal letter could be typewritten (except the signature) or written by hand. It usually consists of five parts. (Inside address doesn?t appear in a formal personal letter.)
(1) Heading. Your address always goes in the top right-hand corner. The date always goes under the address. This can be written as:
Monday,28th March
March 28th
28\3\2000
(2)Salutation. Write the salutation on the left, and follow it with a comma. The
normal ways of naming the person you are writing to are as follows:
A Dear Mr.\Ms.+ surname (family name)
(3) Body. Indent four or five spaces at the beginning of every paragraph.
(4) Closing. Write the closing in the centre of the page---the closing is Yours sincerely—and follow it with a comma.
(5) Signature. You should write your signature two or three lines down below the closing by hand.
When you write a formal personal letter, you must choose your words to suit the kind of the subject you are writing about. For example, you would n?t write to the father of a friend thanking him for a present in the same way that you would write to the dean of your department putting forward your ideas for changes in the courses in the course study. You can write formal personal letters to the people:
A Who are older than you.
B Who are in a position of authority
C you have not known for a long time
D you are acquainted with
E you are not related to
F you do not have a lot in common with.
Informal Letters(非正式信件)
Informal letters are also called “ personal letters”. Often you can write informal letter to the people:
A who are about the same age as you
B who have the equal social position as you have
C whom you have known for a long time
D who are amiable friends of yours
E whom you are related with
F who have many things in common with you Example
(1)139, South Close,
London NW3 2RF
20 August,2000
(2) Dear Aunt Nellie,
I have just started work, and I …d like to tell you about my experiences so far. I am working as a typist in an insurance office which has about forty other people. Most of the time I type a letter for a very kind man called Mr. Merriam, who is manager of the Claims Department. He gives me my work, and I take it back to him when I have typed it.
There are all kinds of different people in the office: some rude, some noisy, some funny. I have made friends with a typist called Susan; her boss is a Mrs. Jones, who is manager of the Accounts Department. Susan and I get on very well together, and we often go to a nice little café for lunch, which costs about a pound.
You know that I have been trained as a typist, so the work here is easy for me. The office is very clean and modern, though I find the atmosphere bizarre and a bit difficult to get used to. Transport from home to work is no problem for me: I first catch a 26 bus, change at Bidlam Square, and then continue on a number 12. It takes about 20 minutes.
Well , that is all for now. Next time I write I hope I will have more news for you.
(3)with love
(4)(5) Mary
The usual rules of an informal letter are more or less the same as the formal personal letters.
Narration (记叙文)
Narration , as a pattern of thought, consists of the act of following a sequence of actions or events in time. It is a recounting of the facts or particulars of some occurrence, incident, or experience.
The simplest kind of narration is the which follows chronological order, that is, which tells the events in the order in which they occurred.
Reading the following paragraph:
I went to the lecture at 11. Before that I had a sandwich and a cup of coffee at the university canteen. I didn?t have enough time to eat breakfast. After the lecture, I went off and ate a big lunch.
This paragraph is not following the chronological order. It seems to be a bit jumbled. It is better to be written as follows:
I got up late in the morning, so I didn?t have enough time to eat my breakfast. Before I went to the lecture at 11 I had a sandwich and a cup of coffee at the university canteen. After the lecture, I went off and ate a big lunch.
Exercise rearrangement
A Aristide had gone for a walk in the forest one day
B He set out early in the morning
C He didn?t know how to find his way back to the town
D He soon fell asleep
E He was tired and hungry, and sat down to rest
F Having walked for several hours, he suddenly realized that he was lost
G He was surrounded by redskins
H When he awoke, it was nearly dark
I They bound his hands and led him away to their village
The common Structure of Narration
The rhetorical structure of narration can be partially conveyed by a single sentence: Yesterday morning, on the main street in the city centre, Mr. Wang had a car accident. This sentence contains all the elements of narration (except cause and effect): the
time(when the events occurred), the place(where the event occurred), the agent ( the person or persons who take part in the action), and the action( the thing done). Because narration follows the laws of chronological succession, in the narrative the pattern can be as follows:
Introduction ( contains time, place, agent, and beginning of action)
Event1 2 3 4 Conclusion
Narration often goes hand in hand with description. Practicing writing a factual description of a place and a day?s routine associated the place is useful for an IELTS candidate. From this, he will learn to describe a workplace or educational institution and to describe the main facts of a person?s working day in chronological order.
The present simple tense in the narrative is used when writing about everyday routine. This is a very common use of this tense.
In real life, one is often required to write a personal factual narrative on particular events. It is therefore useful for students to learn how to arrange the events in chronological order and to describe the events in a simple piece of continuous writing. Exercise1
Write about a day?s outing you went on. Say who went with you, where you went and what you did.
The guiding for the writing:
(1)Introduction and explanation ---who you are where you live where you went
(2)Traveling there--- when you left how you traveled when you arrived
(3)What happened there---what you did first next after that when you have a
meal
(4)Traveling back---- when you left how you traveled when you got back home The past perfect tense is used in the writing because it fits in naturally when narrating events in the past. Superlative of adjectives clauses are also used here. Adjectives clauses are a very common feature in written English.
In academic writing, a narrative is often used to outline a sequence of steps carried out a specific occasion. It is also particularly important in report-writing, when the writer outlines the developmental stages of an experiment or a piece of research, or the sequence of steps in an event such as a fire or an accident.
Vocabulary Guide
(1)now then next before after subsequently afterwards earlier later

(4)while at the same time meanwhile
(5)yesterday the day before yesterday two days ago tomorrow

雅思写作教案3
Description 描写 Description is a mental process, a way of perceiving objects in space and time. As it pertains to composition, description is a way of picturing images verbally in speech or writing and of arranging those images in logical or associational pattern. Generally, description is concerned with people, places, and things. But in academic writing, especially in IELTS, you have to write a simple description of an object, a process or some data. According to this requirement, two writing techniques are mainly concerned in IELTS when writing a description. They are: static description and process description. Static Description (静物描述) Very often we have to describe the appearance or layout of something. We shall refer to this as static description. In IELTS, you may be required to write a description about an aerosol container, a camera or a microwave oven. When describing such things a number of features may be contained: shape, size, color, location of parts and condition. Usually in writing static description the following principles should be observed: (1)Your description should be well organized, eg general to particular, more important to less important, front to back, top to bottom, etc. (2)You should offer the reader a clear picture in his mind of what you are describing (3)The details must be correct (4)You ought to stick to the important parts. A Relay A relay is a switching device for opening and closing one or more electrical circuits on receipt of an electric signal. A simple kind of relay consists of two parts: a switch in high voltage circuit which is operated by a spring loaded armature and a low voltage electro-magnetic circuit The electro-magnet comprises a soft iron core shaped like a horseshoe. Each arm of the core has a coil would around it. The coils are connected to each other and to a battery through an on\off switch. In writing static description, the following words are quite useful: above below over underneath at the front of at the back to the left to the right in the middle near close to apart on top of at the foot of at the base of at the bottom of on the side on the other side within inside circle vertical line hyperbolic curve Process Description (过程描述) A process is a series of actions ,changes ,functions, steps, stages, procedures, or operations that bring about a particular end or result. Like narration, process suggests ongoing movement and continuous action. The rhetorical structure of a process may be conveyed by a simple pattern: Introduction (thesis) Step 1 Step 2 Conclusion ( summary and so forth) Describing How to Do Something In describing how to do something the main thing is to arrange the information so that
雅思写作范文：远程教育和网络课程将会取代传统课程
Distance learning and online computer courses would replace traditional classroom learning. Descriptions of the changes wrought by the information revolution have scientifically proven how advanced and civilized our society is becoming. Recently, New York Times published a lengthy article on the University of Phoenix --- a virtual university that offers accredited degrees for coursework performed entirely on the Internet. However, some people doubt if this trend will bring us benefits. Admittedly, from an enlightened and pragmatic perspective, I, personally, would assert that it's the time for alternative teaching methodologies to take the leading position from traditional classroom learning. Not only the supporters of alternative learning, but also, I suppose, all of us could not deny the time-effectiveness and individualization that it brings to us. Unlike the traditional classroom learning which requires students to physically participate in class , distance learning and online computer courses allow students who for various reasons could not come to the classroom to customize their class schedules. For instance, a single working mother, who has to work full-time in order to pay checks, cannot fit the curriculum schedule in a real classroom, but might have a larger possibility to enroll some courses through distance learning and online computer courses. That is, alternative learning styles turn the "mission impossible" in old days into a real and practical action right now. Besides, it is alternative learning styles that enhance the quality and efficiency of individual learning. In most cases, alternative learning styles outweigh traditional classroom learning for one noticeable success that problem-solving process where most students have learning difficulties and problems is highly highlighted. In traditional classrooms, class time is given so limited for teachers to identify students'
雅思写作Task2范文：老人养老
雅思写作Task2范文：老人养老 在英国，一些老人会到养老院和其他老人住在一起，并有专门的呼市照顾他们。有时候政府会为这种服务买单。你认为谁该对这些老人负责。本文是关于这一论题的雅思范文。如果你不熟悉如何完成这样的文章，请参照本文。认真研读一定的雅思范文及作文模板可以帮助我们检验自己的写作水平，并能很好地吸收和应用优秀范文里的优秀内容。 Write about the following topic: In Britain, when someone gets old they often go to live in a home with other old peoples where there are nurses to look after them. Sometimes the government has to pay for this care. Who should be responsible for our old people? Model Answer: Many old people in Britain, after a lifetime of hard work and the toil of bringing up children, are put into homes for the elderly by their families. There, they are looked after by professional nurses, and this is sometimes at the expense of the government. However, this situation has raised controversy about whether we extend to our elders the care and respect they deserve. The critics of this system say that it is the duty of the family to look after its senior members in the years when they are no longer able to work. They point out that in retirement homes old people tend to feel useless and unwanted by their family members, who seldom come to see them. In addition, there is evidence that younger people benefit from the experience and wisdom of older people who live with them on a daily basis.

雅思写作例文 Task 2 09
You should spend about40minutes on this task. Write about the following topic: Many people believe that the high levels of violence in films today are causing serious social problems. What are these problems and how could they be reduced? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience. Write at least250words. Answer： The increasing amount of violence that is shown regularly in films has been a cause of concern for some time.Such films make violence appear entertaining,exciting and even something to be copied.However,it seems to be increasingly clear that this development is causing problems in our society. First of all,those who enjoy such films eventually stop associating the violence with any real consequences.They therefore lose their sense of reality and no longer take violence seriously or have any sympathy with the victims.This is bad for both individuals and for our whole society.Another worrying trend is that in these films the heroes are shown as people to be admired,even though they are very violent characters.This leads impressionable people to believe that they can gain respect and admiration by copying this aggressive behaviour,and so the levels of violence increase, especially in major cities throughout the world. What is needed to combat these problems is definite action.The government should regulate the film industry on the one hand,and provide better education on the other.Producers must be prevented from showing meaningless violence as'fun'in their films.Instead,films could emphasise the tragic consequences of violent acts and this would educate people, especially young people,to realise that violence is real.

Give possible reasons and your recommendations. Model Answer: There is much discussion nowadays as to whether or not the relation-ship between family members is as close as before. Diverse contributing factors can be identified. In the following, I would like to present my point of view. Great changes have taken place in family life along with the development of society. One of them is that the once-extended family tends to become smaller and smaller. Many children have to leave their parents at an early age to study or work elsewhere. As time passes, children become emotionally estranged from their parents. Compared with the past, social competition is becoming increasingly fierce. People are urged to concentrate their efforts upon work, so that they can achieve success, or at least a good standard of living. As a result, they can’t afford to spend their leisure hours with their families. The importance of bonds of kinship is gradually fading from their minds. In addition, the availability of various kinds of recreational facilities also diverts people from enjoying chats with the members of their families. Their free time is mostly occupied by watching TV, surfing the Internet or playing video games. They come to lose interest in communicating with the other members of their families. In view of such alienation within families, urgent steps must be taken, in my opinion. For members of families who live away from one another, regular contact on the phone can bring them the care that they need. Family reunions on holidays or other important occasions can make a difference as well. For those living together, it is a good idea to take some time off work or recreation periods to spend more
雅思写作：雅思写作第二部分解题思路
The shortage of housing in big cities can cause severe consequences, and only government a ction can solve the problem. To what extent do you agree or disagree? 翻译： 大城市的房屋短缺会导致严重后果，并且只有政府行为才能解决这一问题。你在何种程度上同意或反对？ 抛砖： 房地产业real estate是关系到人民生活的重要行业industry，政府不能完全放开到市场，让个人自行解决。首先，如果整个城市经济不发达，人民收入有限，即使房屋短缺也不会有房地产商愿意投资，政府应当把税收的一大部分用于建造保障住房，保证低收入low-income人群有房可住。 如果城市经济发达，当人口增加，房屋短缺时，房价必然提高，这时会有很多建筑商进入这个行业，建造新房，而垄断的房地产商们进一步提高房价，使普通市民无法承担can not afford，这时政府也应投资建造保障用房，平抑房价，解决居民居住问题，而且还要采取其它调控措施，保证房地产业健康发展。 房地产是民生行业，不能进行绝对的自由竞争，一定要有政府行为。 Some people think that good health is the basic needs of every human and it is not r ight for the medical care services to be run by profit-making companies. Do the disadvantage s of private health care outweigh its advantages? 翻译： 一些人认为身体健康是每个人的基本需求并且医疗保健服务被盈利公司所经营是不对的。私有健康保健机构的缺点是否超过好处？ 抛砖： 医疗行业是关系到人民生活的行业，不能完全被盈利公司所经营。当然，私有健康保健机构有好处，比如机构小，效率高；更多考虑患者需求，能提供更加个性化的服务。 但是私营医疗机构的目标是盈利，不会考虑那些无法承担医疗费用的人群，比如低收入或生活有困难的人们；而且私营机构总是集中在有赚钱效应的领域，比如牙医、整容、或心血管疾病等，而不愿涉足一些冷门的非盈利领域。 私营健康机构有自己的特点，作为保障医疗的补充，应长期存在，但政府应建立主要服务于大众的保障医疗机构，这样才能保障大多数人民群众的医疗需求。 Some people say that government should pay for the health care and education but oth er people say that it is not the governments' responsibility. Discuss both views and give yo ur own opinion. 翻译： 一些人说政府应当支付健康保健和教育但是另一些人说这不是政府的责任。讨论两种观点并给出你自己的观点。

Discuss. 开头段 ⑴Advertising has become prevalent in the contemporary society and vast billboards, TV commercials and leaflets（传单）are all exerting profound impact on modern life. ⑵In the meantime, whether advertising is a blessing or a curse has sparked spirited (激烈的)debate. ⑶Some people argu e （认为）that advertising has only beneficial influence on our lives while many others contend that it has detrimental （有害的）effect as well. （改写原题观点，如果原题中只有一个观点，最好把相反的观点写出来。）⑷Personally, I am in favor of the former (latter) view. （表示自己的观点） 表示利与弊的英文：advantages and disadvantages strengths and weaknesses the upside and the downside / pros and cons / boons and banes 主体段1 Admittedly, advertising may also carry considerable potential drawbacks. ⑴To begin with, a vast number o f online advertisements may harm the Internet users’ lives. ⑵To illustrate, email spamming （群发）may fill up one’s email box with junk emails and worse yet, （递进）many of these junk emails could destroy PCs with viruses or Trojan horses. ⑶Moreover, a high percentage of advertisements in the media are misleading ones. ⑷Today, it seems that many drug companies give false information about their products, which has rendered （让……变成什么状态）a host of customers afraid to buy medicine. 主体段2 Despite this, advertising has brought numerous benefits. ⑴In the first place, advertisements inform us about the latest products on the market. ⑵In general, with the help of ads, customers can make shopping more economical and less time-consuming.⑶In the second place, elaborate （包含了很多劳动，变成了精心制作）advertisements can be a genuine art form. ⑷Indeed, instead of wasting our time, creative ads can afford us diverse amusements, thereby （后面是动名词）immensely brightening up our lives. ⑸Last but not least, some advertising in the media can motivate people to contribute to charities. ⑹As a matter of fact, I would be hard-pressed to imagine how charities can get enough funds without the help of non-profit ads. （我很难想象相反的事情发生） 结尾段 ⑴In the final analysis, I concede that the proliferation （扩散）of the advertising industry does not come without any adverse effects.

Lesson 2: Introductions ---- Four types of questions 1. Discussion Some people think that it is more effective for students to study in groups, while others believe that it is better for them to study alone. Discuss both views and give your own opinion. Topic- study in groups or alone Answer- sometimes better alone, usually better in a group People have different views about the effectiveness of group study as opposed to working alone. While there are some benefits to studying independently, I believe that group work is usually more productive. 2. Opinion Some people believe that unpaid community service should be a compulsory part of high school programmers. To what extent do you agree or disagree? Topic- community service for all teenagers Answer- 3 choice (agree, disagree, balanced opinion) It is sometimes argued that high school students should be made to do some work in their local communities. (agree) I completely agree that this kind of scheme would be a good idea. (disagree) It is sometimes argued that high school students should be made to do some work in their local communities. In my opinion, it would be wrong to force teenagers to do any kind of unsalaried work. (want mention both side) It is sometimes argued that high school students should be made to do some work in their local communities. While I disagree with the idea of making such programmers compulsory, I do believe that voluntary community service could benefit young people. 3. Problem and solution Some people reoffend after they have been punished. Why do some people continue to commit crimes after they have been punished, and what measures can be taken to tackle this problem? Topic- criminals reoffend Answer- several reasons, a variety of measures (government, communities) It is true that punishments do not always deter criminals from committing more crimes. There are various reasons why offenders repeatedly break the law, but governments could certainly take steps to address this issue. 4. Two-part question As most people spend a major part of their adult life at work, job satisfaction is an important element of individual well-being. What factors contribute to job satisfaction? How realistic is the expectation of job satisfaction for all workers? Topic- job satisfaction Answer- several factors, unrealistic / impossible Work plays a central role in our lives, and we would all like to feel fulfilled professionally. While a variety of factors may lead to job satisfaction, it would be unrealistic to expect everyone to be happy at work.
