考研英语小作文的写作格式和策略
考研英语小作文要求考生根据所给情景写作约100次(标点 符号不计算在内)的应用性短文,包括私人和公务信函、备忘录、报告等。海天考研认为小作文重点是信函,信函主要有:求职信、投诉信、邀请信、订购信、询问 信、感谢信、道歉信、推荐信等八种,而在这八种信函中前五种是重点。
英语小作文写作格式
英语小作文的一般都可分为三段,同学们在写作的时候要注意开头和结尾。从第一段中就可得知是何种类型的小作文,说的什么问题。在称呼上,如果是 不认识的人,一般称呼为敬词+尊称。例如,DearSirorMadam;如果是写给关系正式的某团体或个人,称呼为敬词+尊称+名。例 如,DearMr.xx或DearMs.xx;对于关系较亲密的人可以直呼其名。
正文格式一般格式为首段开头空四个字母,段落之间不空行;现在流行的格式,每段开头不空格,但是各段之间空一行。考生在格式方面可以根据自己的习惯进行选择。只要让阅卷人看得舒服,且完全符合应用文要求的文体就可以。
最有一段一般是回应第一段,或者再次表达感谢,期待回复等。简练在特别注意的。最后一段不需要含有很多的信息点,侧重固定词语的运用。
英语小作文写作策略
1,求职信首先要标明信息来源,说明自己的写作意图,然后介绍自己的工作经历,学习经历,以及自己对该职业的看法和规划等,并证明自己能够胜任该职位。
2,投诉信主要写明自己投诉的原因,并展开论述该问题的具体情况和对自己造成的损失,最后表达对上述问题需要及时得到解决的强烈愿望。
3,邀请信开篇表明写作意图,向某人发出邀请。然后说明邀请的具体原因,邀请的内容。最后表明强烈的期盼,并希望尽快得到答复。
4,订购信开篇点出写信的目的,定购你要的东西。接着详细说明你订购货物的规格、大小、颜色、尺寸等。最后表示对方回函以便确认。
5.询问信首先明确写信的目的,说明写这封信的目的是寻求某信息或帮助。然后询问具体问题,强调所需信息的重要性。最后表达获取信息的强烈愿望,提供联系方式以便收信人与你联系,并对有关人员表示感谢。
同学们在写小作文的时候还要注意简化描述语言。用简短的语句代替冗长的语句。在作文完成的时候,应该检查、修改,以免遗漏一些需要表达清楚的要点和细节。

2、称呼从左边顶格写起,对一般机关、团体的负责人一般用 Dear Sir, 对政府官员可

Directions: Write a memorandum of about 100 words to the student service department and ask them to fix a telephone for each dormitory.
MEMO
August 16, 2005
To: The leader of student service department
From: Li Ming
Subject: Telephone
Dear Sir,
I would like to remind you that we are in want of a telephone for each dormitory. As a university student, we need to cope with the daily increasing communications with teachers, friends and people outside the campus.
We need a telephone to get and send message, which is important for us. Though most of us have mobile phones and e-mail address, a telephone in the dormitory is after all the most convenient and cheapest tool of communication. I hope that you will pay attention to this problem and solve it as soon as possible.
三、摘要
文章摘要是对所写文章主要内容的精炼概括。美国人称摘要为“Abstract”,而英国人则喜欢称其为“Summary”。
通常国际刊物要求所要刊登的文章字数,包括摘要部分不超过1万字。而对文章摘要部分的字数要求则更少。因此写摘要时,应用最为简练的语言来表达论文之精华。论文摘
要的重点应放在所研究的成果和结论上。
国际会议要求的论文摘要的字数不等,一般为200字-500字。而国际刊物要求所刊登的论文摘要的字数通常是100字-200字。摘要的位置一般放在一篇文章的最前面,内容上涵盖全文,并直接点明全旨。语言上要求尽量简炼。摘要通常多采用第三人称撰写。 科学书籍、论文和学术报告一般都附有内容摘要,这样可以节省读者的时间,使他们不必读完整个文章就能够了解它的主要内容。书籍摘要,一般放在封二或封三;论文和学术报告的摘要,一般放在正文前面。摘要应做到简明扼要,切题,能独立成文,使读者能准确地了解书籍的要义。写摘要时,最好用第三人称的完整的陈述句,文长一般不超过200个词。
英文摘要分类
摘要分陈述性的(Descriptive)和资料性的(Informational)两类。陈述性摘要只陈述书籍或文章的主题,不介绍内容。资料性的摘要除了介绍主题外,还应介绍文章的要点和各个要点的主要内容。它可以包括三个组成部分:
①点明主题,解析文章或书籍的目的或意图;
②介绍主要内容,使读者迅速了解文章或书籍的概貌;
③提出结论或建议,以供读者参考。

摘要题型写作实例
① 试题题目
Directions: Study the following essay carefully and write a summary in about 80 words.
We continue to share with our remotest ancestors the most tangled and evasive attitudes about death, despite the great distance we have come in understanding some of the profound aspects of biology. We have as much distaste for talking about personal death as for thinking about it; it is an indelicacy, like talking in mixed company about venereal disease or abortion in the old days. Death on a grand scale does not bother us in the same special way: we can sit around a dinner table and discuss war, involving 60 billion volatilized human deaths, as though we were talking about bad weather; we can watch abrupt bloody death every day, in color, on films and television, without blinking back a tear. It is when the numbers of dead are very small, and very close, that we begin to think in scurrying circles. At the very center of the problem is the naked cold deadness of one’s own self, the only reality in nature of which we can have absolute certainty, and it is unmentionable, unthinkable. We may be even less willing to face the issue at first hand than our predecessors because of a secret new hope that maybe it will go away. We like to think, hiding the thought, that with all the marvelous ways in which we seem now to lead nature around by the nose, perhaps we can avoid the central problem if we just become, next year, say, a bit smarter. ② 原文要点:
1. continue to have the most confused ideas of death like predecessors
2. avoid talking about death
③ 参考摘要:
People dislike talking about death because they just like their predecessors still have the vaguest ideas of the issue. They talk about death only when million upon millions of people are killed in war. When they find only very few people die each time and the death rates are almost equal, they become very anxious, thinking that next time they themselves will meet their doom. Therefore, they fear very much. However, they have a hope that when they control nature, they can avoid death.(84 words
