Dear Family,
You must be greatly surprised when you get this letter, not from anyone else but from your dearest son, since I have never written a letter for ages in such a traditional way. The purpose of my writing is not so much to express my gratitude for bringing me up, as it is to tell you something about my college life.
It has been more than two years since I started my college life and I have adapted myself to the new environment here, even though at the very beginning, I was not quite used to it. My classmates are pretty friendly and they offer to help me whenever need be, which is really precious for me. My teachers tell me the differences between college life and high school life and give me some necessary advice on how to learn in college. Because of their kind-hearted help, I learn to know the importance of cooperation and communications between each other, especially when in Group work.
In the past several months, I have been busy preparing for TEM 4.Therefore, most of the time, I stayed at school and seldom kept in touch with you; I should have been ashamed of this. But now it is completely finished, and I will never do that again. In my spare time, I usually go to play basketball to keep fit since you always ask me to practice more to keep healthy. What is more, I like to go to the English Corner to practice my spoken English in order to improve my oral English level, which is of importance as English major.
Finally, I would like to specially thank you for providing me the best education and experience. Without your support and understanding, it wouldn't be the same. In regard to the future, I will make every effort to study for my degree and make the dreams I had envisioned come true.
Take good care of yourselves as you have asked me to.
Best regards,
Jay

尊敬的父母双亲和妹妹:
大家好!
收到我信件的时候应该是快要过年的时候,首先祝福大家新年快乐,在新的一年里有新的起点。
很难忘,在十二月十日那天,大家能去送我,那一幕是让我最感动的,我知道送我当天大家的心情,当我踏上南下的列车和亲人告别的同时,我的心猛然一振,因为这么多人都给我寄予希望,时刻关注着我。既然我选择了这条出路,就一定会好好的干下去,当一个合格的军人,一个让人喜欢,充满青春、活力的有用之才。
来到这祖国的边疆,美丽、繁华的广西南宁已有数目十天了,这里的气温很高,每天都面对这红红的太阳,在家时穿衣服要三、四件还有烤火,这里就两件搞定。来到这里也基本上习惯了,这里主要以吃清淡口味为主,不向我们那里吃得那么辣。而且这里还喜欢吃甜食,吃什么都喜欢放糖。真的,这里的天气、生活习惯就这样。
在给大家谈谈在军营的情况吧,我们是12月12日到达广西南宁公安消防总队教导大队的,坐了21小时的火车,在这里我们只训练35天,在元月十九号我们就要分到广西各个地区。所以在这段时间里我们主要进行队列训练、内务整理(摆放日用品,叠被子、衣服等)军事政治学习(学习条令条例)。我给大家讲讲我一天的情况吧。每天五点半起床,跑步,然后洗脸漱口,摆放鞋子、叠被子(真的像豆腐块),然后吃早餐,八点钟开始队列训练,也就是军事训练。由于我们没有受过军训,所以每个动作都不完整,有时一个动作要做百次、千次。真的,每天都是全是无力,疼痛。现在我才知道这种痛的滋味,真是“台上一分钟,台下十年功”。你们看到电视上每个军事动作,看上去很简单,要做好真的很难,十一点半吃午餐,休息两个小时,两点开始训练,下午五点半晚餐。七点钟后节目很多,打球、唱歌、学习、看电视、电影等,虽很苦很累。但还是很有意义。真的“人生最美的是军旅”,这里有江西的,广西本地宜昌各地的大家聚在一起,还不是很谈得来,所以在这里还是很寂寞的,没有真正和我谈得来的朋友。
我想,两年义务兵之后,我如果留在这里发展,可能要留下来,在干个三年就回长阳,因为那三年后回长阳就可以找到工作些。衷心的祝福大家在家身体健康,不用为我担心,我很好的。

Nowadays, many famous university campuses have become one of the popular tourist attractions. It has been shown on TV and on the radio that every year thousands and thousands of middle school students visit Tsing Hua University and Peking University and other famous universities in China. In the place far away from the capital city, the local students also visit the universities famous in their own province.
So far as the present situation is concerned, is it a good or bad thing to open the university campus for tourists? Different people have different opinions. On one hand, some people argued that it is a good thing for the students to visit the famous university campus in that it can enable the middle students to get more information about the university and they can have enough time and opportunity to prepare themselves with the chance to get into the university. On the other hand, some people hold a negative view about this phenomenon. In their opinion, the public tourism will have negative effect on the universities because it will not only do harm to the environment but also to the intellectual atmosphere.
In my opinion, the tourism to the universities is not a good thing. The campus is mainly a place for study. With the increasing tourism on the campus, it will ruin the spiritual atmosphere in this learning field.
首先,提纯范文 “谋篇布局”及结构模板。
第一段:提出问题或现象。Nowadays, … … have become one of the popular … …. It has been shown on TV and on the radio that … ….
第二段:正反列举人们的看法。So far as the present situation is concerned, is it a good or bad thing to … …? Different people have different opinions. On one hand, some people argued that it is a good thing for … … in that … …. On the other hand, some people hold a negative view about this phenomenon. In their opinion, … … will have negative effect on … … because it will not only do harm to … … but also to … ….
第三段:摆明自己观点。In my opinion, … … is not a good thing. … … With the increasing … …, it will ruin … ….
其次,提纯范文“段落写作”。
段落写作分为统一性,连贯性和完整性三方面。
统一性(unity:段落开头的主题句应该做到不可太宽泛,也不可太具体,做到有较强的概括性才能使下文做到有的放矢的展开。范文第二段首句以设问的方式提出一个问题is it a good or bad thing就有很强的概况性。下文自然会一方面从好的方面说明,另一方面从坏的方面说明。
连贯性(coherence:关联词是使文章段落之间相互连贯的必要条件。范文中nowadays, on one hand, on the other hand, in one’s opinion即以“启承转合”递进的顺序是文章条理清晰,层层展开。
完整性(completeness:以设问句“So far as the present situation is concerned, is it a good or bad thing to open the university campus for tourists?”开头,这是平时较少运用的段落写作方式——设问法。“On one hand … …. On the other hand, … ….”是段落写作分类列举法的典型用法。
再次,提纯范文“句子写作”。
1. It has been shown that … …
类似句型:It is known to us that … …
It is said that … …
It is reported that … …
It is controversial that … …
2. “… … Tsing Hua University and Peking University and other famous universities … …。”——并列句。并列句是简单的复杂句。但其运用方法并不简单,注意练习并接句的使用,会使句子显的更加饱满。
3. enable v. 使…能够
I gave him full directions to enable him to find the house.
4. in that = because
表“因为”的连词还有since, for, as,如:
The boy was absent because he was ill. = The boy was absent since he was ill.
此句以我们常用的人称开头,句式简单,我们可以通过把since提前改变句式,如:
Since the boy was ill, he was absent. 句式多样化。
最后,提纯范文“措辞”。
1. attraction n. 具有吸引力的事情。
2. thousands and thousands 成千上万的
形容“多”的表达方法:millions and millions
a multitude of
a great deal of
a large amount of
plenty of
many a
3. “some people argued that … …”中的“argue”并不是“讨论,辩论”的意思,而是“认为”。
I argue that … …
I maintain that … …
I claim that … …
I insist that … … = I think that … …
I hold that … …
I assert that … …
I assume that … …
4. negative adj. 否定的.,相反的
hold negative view = hold opposite opinions
5. phenomenon n. 现象
social phenomenon 社会现象
natural phenomenon 自然现象
6. intellectual adj. 聪明的= intelligent, bright, clever
(选词策略:使用最近所学的单词,如intellectual > intelligent > bright > clever
在分析并掌握范文之后,我们需要运用范文知识练习仿写。笔者运用2005年12月范文中的模板结构仿写了2006年12月的四级作文,以供参考:
1. 许多人喜欢在除夕夜看春节晚会
2. 但有些人提出取消春节晚会
3. 我的看法
Nowadays, the Spring Festival Evening has become one of the popular topic and attractions during every traditional New Year’s Eve. It has been shown on TV and on the radio that every year thousands and thousands of Chinese people appear to be accustomed to enjoying the sights and sounds of a brilliant feast, while gathering with their beloved family.
However, an increasing number of people have voiced different opinions towards it. So far as the present situation is concerned, is it a good or bad thing to cancel the Spring Festival Evening? Different people have different opinions. On one hand, some people argued that it is a good thing to amuse the audience in that it is composed by a numerous adequate programs, such as the emotional song, the graceful dance, the funny short sketch, the amusing comic dialogue, the delightful magic, and the marvelous acrobatics and so on. On the other hand, some people hold a negative view about this phenomenon. In their opinion, the Spring Festival Evening will have negative effect on the family harmony because it will not only do harm to having the talks between family members on the Spring Festival Eve but also to enjoying the gourmet meal in a fancy restaurant.
In my opinion, the Spring Festival Evening is a good thing. It may not remain a must for all people, but it can bring us a strong sense of festivity and serve as an alternative among the variety of holiday activities. With the increasing audience of the Spring Festival Evening, it will ruin a distinctive culture during the Spring Festival vacation.
To see a world in a grain of sand,
And a heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand,
And eternity in an hour.
一沙一世界,
一花一天堂,
手中即无限,
永恒亦短暂。
上周我们进行一次数学考试。老师发下试卷我心里忐忑不安,希望自己能考满分,我拿起笔涮涮的写,快做完了,忽然一道题难住了我,心里想啊想,还是不会做,真希望答案就出现在眼前啊。还是闷一个吧,就随便写了个答案。检查了一遍,就觉得没啥问题,心里才渐渐地平静下来。下课铃声一响,我像箭一般的冲上讲台,交了试卷。
同学们交了试卷,围在一起议论着今天的考题,有的唉声叹气,有的兴高采烈。我的好朋友岳诗雨走了过来问我:“你有把握考100分吗?”“当然有了!”我骄傲地说。
中午到了,老师把试卷发了下来,我一看才78分,是不是老师批错了。当时,我已泪流满面了。施文琰走了过来,安慰我说“下次考得好一点不就行了吗?”
我这才明白骄傲是最大的敌人啊!下次我一定要改掉这个毛病。
新年快乐!我最喜欢过年了,因为过年的时候可以吃“年夜饭”,也有自己的亲朋好友来串客;并且自己也可以长大一岁。不过,最让我恋恋不忘得就是看春晚。
“看春晚喽!看春晚喽!”妈妈吆喝道,我也急急忙忙地扒了几口饭跑到电视前,观看春晚。让我感觉最感动的地方是那英阿姨唱了一首《当你老了》,我听了这首歌配上后面的背景,感觉眼泪都要往下流了。
今年春晚有个新花样,就是拿起手机在微信上“摇一摇”,就可以摇出大奖,我赶紧要来妈妈的“苹果手机”,试了试,没有摇出一个东东来,我好沮丧,最后却摇出了一张照片来,不认识赶快关闭。这次春晚最让我感到惊奇的就是魔术,周家宏把空的扑克牌变成有字的扑克牌,让我感到非常匪夷所思。让我们全家笑个不停的'就是小品——《车站奇遇》具体的事情是这样的:开车的时候,司机说:“我猜一下油门哦。”客人说:“随你踩,反正不是我的车。”司机一踩下去,上半身都往下面钻,那时候,我就笑个不停,笑得前仰后翻,肚子都笑疼了。这届春晚我最崇拜的偶像也来了!屏幕上出现四个人,身穿亮丽旗袍的模特,过了一会儿,就变成了四张动漫人物扑克牌,在若隐若现中,我的偶像李宇春终于登台了,她在台上唱歌,唱着,唱着,就变成了两个人、三个人、四个人······我惊奇地问爸爸:“世界上,有那么多个李宇春吗?”“不,不,是现代科学技术有了大大的改观。”爸爸微笑着说。
随着新年敲击的钟声,我跟爸爸去楼下放“关门炮”,上来以后,就躺下睡觉了。
今天赶集的时候,爷爷从是市场上买来了不少饺子皮。爷爷赶集回来,就将饺子皮放在了桌子上,还吵着在一旁看电视的`我们道:“今天,我们来包饺子吃。”
晚上,我一家人就坐在一起抱起饺子来了。饺子馅有好几种,荤素搭配,有玉米馅,粉丝馅,还有肉馅等等。总之光饺子馅就占了大半桌子,爷爷今天买了不少的饺子皮,包下几百个不在话下。
我一家人将桌子围得满满的,高高兴兴地包起了饺子。这并不是我们第一次包饺子,所以每个人包饺子的手法都比较娴熟。其中包饺子包的最快的是我的奶奶,奶奶包起饺子来,那叫一个迅速。所以,今天包饺子之前,我们就各自分好了任务量,谁要是包完了,可不能再包了。
奶奶包饺子的速度一点没变,不过这次我和家里其他人一点不担心因为自己包饺子的速度慢,从而导致自己包的饺子少了。于是我和妹妹就力求这一次将饺子包得好看起来,我们包得可细心,可认真了。
我一家人在包饺子的时候,也一直在交流闲话着。他们大人们讲着大人的事,我们小孩专注着包饺子。时间在欢乐中走过,暖黄的光给这个画面带上了温馨。我和家人包饺子,将快乐也包去了饺子里,让这些饺子圆滚滚的,成了一个个白胖胖的小子,最招人喜欢。
每年里,我都会和家人包上不少的饺子,这些饺子出自我家里每一位成员之手,这些饺子也带着最独特的味道。
今天晚上包饺子也都包完了,一家人的手上也都沾满了面粉,于是,我们前前后后的往厨房里接水洗手去了。我们包完饺子之后,妈妈又去煮了一些饺子,虽然不多,但对我一家人也是足够了。
今天早上,妈妈兴高采烈地说:“今天我们去科技馆参观,还能见到你的`同学呢。”我听后,快速穿好衣服,吃完饭,兴奋地出发了。
在车上,我心里十分激动,想:放假这么多天,一直没和同学玩,今天终于可以与同学见面了。
盼星星盼月亮,终于把科技馆盼到了。我们买好了票,走进了科技馆。
科技馆里的东西好有趣啊!就说“龙卷风”吧,上下有两个大风扇不停地转动,产生一股强风,还真像龙卷风呢。
“昆虫世界”最有趣了,我们先坐着“时空穿梭器”来到昆虫世界。哇!昆虫世界真有趣。我们知道了白蚁皇后并不懒惰,反而十分勤劳。知道了白蚁吃什么,知道了白蚁穴巢有几个房间,也知道了白蚁家族的秘密。
我们来到了螳螂的房间,看见螳螂正在产卵,它费力的产下了一颗颗卵包。这些卵包裹着一根根丝,丝中间有几个小洞,可能是让小螳螂钻出来的吧。
螳螂妈妈产完卵之后,就头也不回地走了。我并不认为螳螂妈妈没有责任心,反而对它产的卵肃然起敬,因为——只有强者才能生存,弱者只能死路一条,优胜劣汰是大自然的规律。
看完了昆虫世界,我们又来到了机器人俱乐部,看见了小丑机器人在为大家表演扔球。扔了半天,可它却一个也没接到,我们大家都哄堂大笑。但它却挠挠头,好像在说:“怎么了,不行么?”接着又是一番哄堂大笑。
今天是个特殊的日子,既是同学们和我的聚会,也为我和家人们的亲密无接触提供了一个机会。
啊,今天我和家人去旅游真开心啊!
