Answer 1

【答案】Dear Sir/Madam,

Having learned that some American high school students will come to our school to learn Chinese, I am really eager to make friends with them. So on behalf of my family, I’m writing to sincerely apply to be one of the host families.

I’m Li Hua, an 18-year-old girl student in Class One, Grade Three. Being open-minded, easy-going and enthusiastic, I will definitely make their stay pleasant. Meanwhile, I can speak English fluently and accurately, making it easier to communicate with foreigner friends. Living in a beautiful apartment with an extra room for guests, my parents are glad to have a foreign student to stay with us. Most importantly, we just hosted an American student last year so we know what to expect to be a host family. If you accept my application, I promise to make the foreign student feel at home and we can visit some local places of interest in our free time.

Your early reply would be greatly appreciated.

Yours faithfully,

Li Hua

【解析】這是一篇命題作文。文章內(nèi)容要點(diǎn)已經(jīng)給出。同學(xué)們?cè)趯戇@篇文章時(shí)，要注意以下幾點(diǎn)：1.通篇以一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)為主。2.要點(diǎn)要齊全。但是不要對(duì)要點(diǎn)進(jìn)行簡(jiǎn)單的羅列�？梢允褂眠m當(dāng)?shù)倪B接詞，使上下文行文流暢。3.注意語(yǔ)氣。語(yǔ)氣應(yīng)該比較懇切，有說(shuō)服力。難點(diǎn)是向校辦公室說(shuō)明申請(qǐng)接待家庭的優(yōu)勢(shì)，最好有具體的例子做支撐，否則內(nèi)容不夠豐滿。寫這部分內(nèi)容時(shí)，學(xué)生可以采取簡(jiǎn)單句和復(fù)合句結(jié)合的方法。

【范文亮點(diǎn)】：1. I think my English is good enough to communicate with foreigners and I like to make friends.我覺得我的英語(yǔ)水平足夠好，可以和外國(guó)人交流，并且我喜歡交朋友。（采取了并列句式）

2.I live in a beautiful apartment and luckily my parents are glad to have a foreign student to stay with us.我住在一個(gè)美麗的公寓里，并且幸運(yùn)的是，我的父母很樂(lè)意有一名國(guó)外的學(xué)生和我們住在一起。（采用了并列句式；采用to do不定式表原因to have a foreign student與to do不定式做定語(yǔ)，修飾a foreign student）

3.If you accept my application to be a host family, I promise to make the foreign student feel at home and we can visit some local places of interest in free time.如果你接受我接待家庭的申請(qǐng)，我保證會(huì)讓外國(guó)朋友賓至如歸，我們可以在閑暇時(shí)間參觀當(dāng)?shù)氐拿麆俟袍E。（采用了條件句；采用了promise to do允諾做某事，feel at home賓至如歸，places of interest名勝古跡等高級(jí)單詞和短語(yǔ)）

4.采用besides, most importantly 等連詞使得上下文行文連貫。
