Dear Mr.Smith,
I am indeed very sorry that I missed the examination on International Business English Writing you gave last Friday. I feel awful about it and want you to know what happened that day.
I suddenly fell sick early that morning and my parents had to send me to the hospital.Please find enclosed a copy of the medical bill.
I sincerely hope you can understand my situation and accept my apology. I would appreciate your allowing me to take a make-up examination. I will come to your office during your office hour on Monday to discuss this possibility with you. Once again, I apologize for any inconvenience caused.
Sincerelyyours,
Wang Hua
When I was a freshman in college I watched the film Gua Sha Treatment for the first time, now I am a junior student and I come back to review the movie from a multicultural aspect, I have many different feelings after watching the film again.
At the beginning of the film, XuDatong is given an award and later he delivers a speech. What makes me impressed most is in his speech he says “one day I will become one of you, a truly successful American, today this award proved that America is a true land of opportunity and I am the living proof of that.” At that moment Xu thinks he has realized his American Dream totally with his lovingly wife and adorable son. However, I think it is ironical that to make a speech like that and I assume it is made on purpose to hind a clue for the story's development. How many non—American people have such a beautiful American dream? One of my classmate studies in American now and before he went aboard he told me his American dream is he can stand at the top of the New York. To be honest, I also dream that one day I can get the Green Card living there happily and successfully maybe working at the Wall Street. When Xu gets the award he thinks he entirely melted in the melting pot neglecting the multicultural obstruct, later the plot goes against the way he thinks. And later Quinlan asked Xu'why you be the scapegoat of your father?' Xu answers 'because he is Chinese.' Then maybe Xu knows that there is always a wide gap between Chinese and American cultures.
The second scene is Xu hit his son Denis because Denis hit the son of xu's boss, at the middle of the film xu tells his boss that he hit his own son is only to show his respect to his boss John Quinlan, that time Quinlan feels puzzled “what a Chinese logic”,yes, American can never understand such a logic full of Chinese characteristic, because they respect everyone including the children, they won't beat a child to please the boss, and there is no such a conception of degree between employee and employer, they feel everyone is equal, which is quite different from china.
Connected to the second scene, the third difference I want to analyze is the care for the children. In America, people pay more attention to the right of children which can be seen from the law—leaving children alone at home is illegal, while in China it is so common that almost everyone may experience such loneliness. And Children Welfare Agency does work in America which shows the importance Americans attach to children's right. What's more, I remember a line 'No one won the case, especially the child.' In my opinion, it also manifests the universal concern from the American public to the children.
The fourth aspect is following the procedure, in the film, more than there times, the people focus on the rule, the law, the procedure. At the Christmas Eve Xu wants to return back to his home pretending as a Santa Claus, what a pity, the security recognizes him and persuades 'you are always a good tenement, never causes troubles for me.' And another scene is at the end of the film , the judge says 'I have to follow the procedure.' However, in China people always have to ask for a favor to do something, and later you have to pay back the favor,for myself, I prefer the American style, strict to the procedure.
The fifth and the last point is the humors, Quinlan says 'you can't fall, your health security is the company paid.' 'Datong, welcome home, maybe next time, you can come from the front door.' 'dady, why you come from the window' ' because we don't have a chimney.' I really adore this distinguished American humor, especially in dangerous situations, which is quite rare in China.
That's my whole reaction to Gua Sha Treatment.
您好!
您知道吗?每当我走过语音室时,总会透过明净的玻璃窗去看看里面的设备,语音室里的一切对于我来说都是那么新奇,那么吸引人。跟着您,在高科技设备装配的语音室里学英语,是我当时最大的愿望。可是,自语音室建好以来,您从未带同学们进去参观过,更没带同学们进去上过一节课,这使得我的愿望变得那样渺茫。
王老师,记得您每次在我们教室里上课时,起码有三分之一的同学在小声说笑,因此,教室里总是乱哄哄的`,可您却很少制止。王老师,维持课堂秩序是您的职责呀,您为什么不去制止他们?还有,您每次提问学生时,一旦同学回答不上来,您总会露出一副不耐烦的神情,为此,许多同学感到很伤心,好多同学也不喜欢上您的课。
王老师,学校培育了我五年,我希望学校越办越好,希望老师能教得开心,我们也能学得开心。因此,我诚心诚意地给您提几条建议,希望您能采纳。
一、每周带同学们到语音室上一次英语课。
二、您不要不管那些上课小声说笑的同学。作为一名教师,您有责任对他们进行批评和教育。
三、今后,请您对那些回答不上问题的同学多一些宽容和理解,并耐心地讲解,这些同学会非常感激您的,他们也会越来越喜欢您的。
王老师,如果您能采纳我的建议,我将十分开心。我坚信您一定会成为我们心中的好老师!
祝您工作顺利!
您的学生:张辉君

Directions:
Some international students are coming to your university. Write them an email in the name of the Students’ union to
1 extend your welcome and
2 provide some suggestions for their campus life here.
Dear Friends,
On behalf of the Students’ Union of Beijing Foreign Studies University, I would like to extend our heartfelt welcome to all of the overseas students from all over the world to study in our university.
It is my great pleasure to propose several practical suggestions to you. In the first place, life in this prestigious university perhaps is not as satisfactory as what you expected. You may be tightly bound by continual classes, excessive homework and exams. In the second place, in spite of all these adversities, you will still enjoy your life in this esteemed institution. All types of extracurricular activities such as sports meets, speech contests, different social gatherings and dancing parties provide ample opportunities to make friends.
All in all, although there are a host of pressure, life in our campus is a worthwhile period in your whole lifetime. Wish you enjoy your life here!
Yours sincerely,
Li Ming
写信七要素:类似于一个写作提纲,每段写什么内容等都说的很清楚。具体如下:
人称:Dear sir or madam/Mr.X/Ms....
第一段
自我介绍:My name is...,who...交待与收信人的关系
写信目的:一句话直接明了的表达
第二段
内容:三句话最多五句话写完
第三段
感谢:第三段第一句
回信:一句或两句
落款:右下角sincerely yours,
Li Ming
以上写信七要素包括:人称、自我介绍、写信目的、内容、感谢、回信和落款。其实,除了书信格式等必不可少的东西之外,剩下的基本就是写作段落布局。仔细看看,其实也没多少句话。按照这个布局,围绕以下几个重点展开最后的冲刺,拿下小作文并不难。
对于书信格式,同学们要格外注意。阅卷老师首先瞄一眼看格式对不对,然后再看其他。如果还没掌握格式,那就抓紧时间熟悉。还有一点,去年给出的写信人也就是落款是Li Ming,而不是Zhang Wei。但是,去年就有同学根本没仔细看写作要求,落款还是写的Zhang Wei。这种低级错误今年就不要再犯了。另外,要多熟记背诵相应的素材。
高中三年的学习内容可分为前两年在学习新知识,高三一年后期在全面复习旧知识,那么该如何利用有限的时间尽快复习旧知识呢?利用错题集无疑是做好的方法。今天为大家讲讲该如何利用错题集。
(一不会的题
这类题,主要表现在智力因素培养方面,一般出自知识结构性错误,重做几遍错题是十分必要的,至于具体是几遍这要视你自己对错题的把握的'熟练程度而定。
知识结构性错误是我们在初步学习时,没有建立起自身知识结构体系,或者在建立自身知识结构体系时存在了一些漏洞与错误认识。
对策:处于不同学习层次的同学要根据自己的实际情况,加强训练和记忆,培养自己的宏观思维方式,因人而异地确定自己的学习目标、步骤和解决问题的方案,并且有效地进行目标时间管理和知识结构体系的建立。
(二眼熟而不会做的题
对于模棱两可似是而非的错题,通过分析,可以发现是把公式给弄混淆了?还是把公式给用错了?是理解错了?还是记忆错了?通过训练可以有效地增进智力因素。这类问题往往是一点就通,容易被人忽视。比如巧妙设置在题中的隐含条件、限制条件和关键词语等等这类问题,往往一点就破,一般会认为自己是弄懂了的,只是没有发现而已,实际上是概念模糊。有的则是自身知识结构体系脉络不清,以致给出错误答案。
对策:对题目的常规解法和特殊解法缺乏自己的归纳总结。
(三会做而错的题
这类问题最容易被人忽视,常常会自以为是地认为是粗心所致,只需下次注意就行了,自己是不会再犯这个错误的,然而,往往却事与愿违,又重复犯相同的错误了。
比如考生还没看清条件就急忙解题,可能是观察得不够仔细,判断得不够准确,也可能是考试策略不当,或是心理心态不稳,还可能是缘于外界的干扰刺激,更有可能是平时练习不到位,仅仅是为了完成作业而作业,或做题缺乏针对性,成天盲目做题,忽略了做完题后的回顾和反思,以及平时就缺乏慢审题快解题的训练。
对策:做完题后进行回顾和总结的习惯,这对增强自己的审题和解题能力很有帮助。
(四考试策略失当的题
这主要表现在非智力因素培养方面,首先要认识清楚自己是思路不清还是思路受到了干扰。比如遇到复杂一些的考题,便心生恐惧,头脑发懵以至造成失误,或缺乏答题的时间观念。面对比较有把握的考题也自我怀疑,答题时犹豫不决,这也会在一定程度上强化不良的考试情绪,干扰解题的思路。
对策:这与心理紧张、心态失衡有关。在答题时要从容不迫沉着冷静,这需要平时加强非智力因素方面的训练和培养。
(五粗心大意的题
这主要表现在非智力因素培养方面,由于马虎出错导致丢分是一个普遍存在的现象,于是大家往往就变得心安理得,还会原谅自己:“这些题我都会做,就是粗心否则就是满分了,我今后要注意改。”说说能改吗?还要找找粗心的原因。
对策:找准失误的原因,对症下药,才能养成良好的学习习惯,同样,改进自己的学习行为可以有效地调整自己的学习状态。通过对错题本中的错误类型进行分析,抓住主要问题,确立自己的近期的学习目标,将错误逐一消灭掉,就能有效地提高成绩,更重要的是,还可以有效地提升自己的学习境界,培养自己的综合素质及能力。
