Answer 1

Dear David,
I’m writing the letter to apologize that I can’t go to America to see you this winter holiday. I promised to visit you and bring you some traditional things of China such as paper-cutting and Beijing Opera Facial Masks. But I’m afraid I can’t keep my word. One reason is that my cousin’s wedding is planned for this Spring Festival. Of course, I can’t miss it. Another reason is that there will be an important English speech contest. I will participate in it on behalf of my school. I have to prepare for it.
To express my sincere apology, I will send the paper-cutting and Beijing Opera Facial Masks to you by airmail. And if you are free, nothing will be better if you can come to China to attend a traditional wedding. I’m sure you won’t be disappointed.
I do hope you can forgive me.
Yours sincerely
Li Hua

試題分析：本文是書信類作文，你的美國朋友David邀請你去美國，但是你因故不能去，要求寫一封信給David說明情況，致歉，并提出彌補措施。文章的要點也基本上都給出來了，而且很具體，考生要把要點解釋清楚，不能有遺漏。在寫作的過程中，要注意使用高級詞匯和高級句型，如強調句，倒裝句等，讓文章更上檔次。同時在列舉措施的時候要使用合適的連接詞如：First，second， Besides, What’s more等，讓文章看起來很有條理，也很流暢。本篇文章在寫作時不要啰嗦，力求簡潔。
【亮點說明】所給范文語言簡潔，應用了一些較好的詞組和句子： I promised to答應做…keep one’s word信守諾言. participate in 參加，prepare for為…做準備，on behalf of代表， One reason is that my cousin’s wedding is planned for this Spring Festival. Another reason is that there will be an important English speech contest. 這兩句話用了表語從句， To express my sincere apology, I will send the paper-cutting and Beijing Opera Facial Masks to you by airmail. 這句話用了不定式做目的狀語， I do hope you can forgive me.這句話用了強調。
