2010年考研英语应用文小作文

应用文写作(小作文)

第一节命题分析

应用文写作是2005年大纲修订之后出现的新题型，主要考查学生在某些特定的日常情境中英文的实际应用能力。相对于大作文来说，应用文的写作还是比较容易完成的。但是在大约15分钟内按照题意写出100词的短文，考生不仅要能够恰当地根据给定情境迅速成文，而且也要有较高的语言能力。因此，在平时的准备过程中，考生应全面了解和掌握各种常见应用文体的写作格式、方法和特点，尤其是要熟悉各类文体的基本结构和常用句型。

大纲中规定的应用文文体的种类包括私人和公务信函、备忘录、摘要、报告等。鉴于考试的要求和实际情况，文章的长度以及文体应用的广泛程度，我们认为应用文写作主要分为两大类：信函类应用文和告示类应用文。其中信函类应用文种类繁多、应用广泛，因此比较重要;告示类应用文虽然写法不同，但总体上的格式和要求是一致的，不能忽略其重要性。另外，应用文写作也有可能出现在平时的生活中，考生也要学会实际运用。

应用文的实际用途决定了其语言应简洁明了，但并不要求复杂多变、词藻华丽。应用文一般需要开门见山，一开始就明确地表达主要意思或目的;文章要求思路清晰，目标明确，语气恰当;尤其是公文信函中，一定要注意语言的正式和礼貌，遵循交际原则;最后还要注意细节，确保事件、数字、日期等信息的准确传达和标点符号的正确使用。

第二节题型解析

信函类应用文

书信是我们用以交涉事务、增进了解、交流思想、联络感情的一个重要工具。就其文体可分为正式和非正式的文体;就其种类可分为私人信件、社交信件、商务信件和公务信件;就其用途可分为求职信、咨询信、感谢信、投诉信、建议信、邀请信、推荐信等。这里先就书信的一般写作格式加以介绍。

一封正规的英文书信的结构或框架由以下五部分组成：

1.The Heading 信端 2.The Salutation 称谓 3.The Body 正文 4.The Close 结尾

5.The Signature 签名

下面分别对这五个部分进行详细的分析：

1.信端(或信头)

信端是写信是最先要写的，也就是你的地址和写信日期。当然，如果你的长期通信地址收信人已知道，信端只写日期也行。

写信端时至少要离纸的边缘三、四行开始写，信端写在信纸右上角。先写发信人地址，第一行写门牌号码和街道名称;第二行写区名、市(县)名、省(州)名;寄往国外的信，还要加上国家的名称;第三行写发信日期。

日期的写法应注意以下几点：

(1)年份应写完整，不能以09代替2009;

(2)月份通常用缩写形式(May, June, July除外);

(3)日期最好用基数词，这样简单明了;

(4)如果都用阿拉伯数字，一般顺序是：日、月、年。

整个日期可用下列几种表达方式：

Oct.15, 2009

15th Oct.2009 Oct.2009

注意：日期与年份之间总要用逗号隔开，但月份与日期之间不用逗号(全用阿拉伯数字除外)。

2.称谓

信的称谓是对收信人的尊称语。一般在信纸的左边顶格开始书写，低于信内地址一、二行;如果没有信内地址，就低与信端一、二行。

不管写给何人的信都首先写上Dear。给一般朋友的信，Dear 后跟名字，如Dear Mary;给母亲的信，Dear 后跟称谓，如 Dear Mother;给长辈亲戚的信，Dear 后跟称谓，如 Dear Uncle John;给不太相识的人写信，Dear后跟先生、夫人、小姐等称呼，再跟姓，如 Dear Mr.Brown, Dear Miss Jenny;如果不知对方姓名，可直接写 Dear Sir或 Dear Madam，如连对方的性别都不知道，就写 Dear Sir/Madam。

千万不要根据汉语的习惯用下列称呼，如 Dear Friend, Mr.Frank Smith等。

称呼后一般用逗号，但美国和加拿大英语常用冒号。

3.正文

信的正文是一封信最重要的部分，它包含你要说的话或你的个人信息等。

信的正文在称呼的下面一行，一般在信纸左边五六个字母的空隙后开始写。写正文时，如果涉及的事务较多，可以分段叙述。每段开头都要留空格，每句第一个字母都应大写。信的正文应简明扼要，条理清楚，语言通俗易懂。信的开头语和结束语多种多样。

常见的开头语有：

I was so pleased to receive your letter...Thank you for your kind letter...Sorry for delaying this letter so long...常见的结束语有：

Best wishes to you.Take good care of yourself and write often.Our warm regards to your parents.4.结尾

信的结尾即在签名前再一次表示敬意和问候。信的结尾写在低于正文两、三行的地方，大都从信纸中间偏右的位置写起，只第一个字母大写，句末应用逗号。确切的措辞取决于书信的种类以及与收信人的友谊深浅和亲昵程度。如果写给一般相识，就不应用“Devoutly yours，”或者“With deepest affection,”也不要用冷漠和正式的 “Very truly yours,”写给一位很喜欢的老相识，结尾既不要过分使用华丽辞藻，也不可粗鲁无礼，而是要恰到好处的用词。

写给专业人士的商务信函，一般用正式的社交语言结尾。如：“Very truly yours.”

一般非正式的社交信函，通常使用下列结尾：Sincerely yours, Yours very sincerely, Always sincerely yours, Yours cordially, Most cordially yours, Faithfully yours 等。

对于密友或亲戚可以用这些结尾：Yours affectionately, Always affectionately yours, Lovingly yours, Yours Loving sister, With love 等。

至于情书，那要看爱情的深厚程度如何，可以用一般性的结尾“Fondly yours,” 也可用冲动的 “Yours with the utmost devotion,”。

我们中国人用英语写信，往往受汉语书信格式和语言的影响，所以要注意不要用中国式的结尾如 “I salute to you,” “Salute,”等。

5.签名

写信人将自己的名字签在结尾的下面，偏向信纸的右边，名字签完一般要靠近右边边缘。签名时要注意名字的拼法：一是不要带有任何头衔，二是中国人的姓名若是两个汉字的名字，其拼音的首字母都要大写，如 “Li Ming”(而现在最流行的写法是姓氏的字母全都要大写，如LI Ming, 以便让人区别姓氏与名字);若是三个字的名字则第一、二个拼音字母大写，第三个与第二个无间隔首字母小写，如：“Liu Xiaoming”。

考研作文中没有对英文信封的考查要求，故在此只作简单介绍，作为考生的知识扩充。英文信封的写法与中文信封的写法不同。发信人的地址应写在信封左上角，收信人的地址应写在信封中间。

以上是一般书信的写作格式，下面我们列出一些具体信笺及其所需包含的内容，以提供考生参照。1.投诉信(Letter of Complaints)

第四篇：考研英语应用文(小作文)题型解析(一)书信写作格式

考研英语应用文(小作文)题型解析(一)

应用文写作(小作文)

第一节命题分析

应用文写作是2005年大纲修订之后出现的新题型，主要考查学生在某些特定的日常情境中英文的实际应用能力。相对于大作文来说，应用文的写作还是比较容易完成的。但是在大约15分钟内按照题意写出100词的短文，考生不仅要能够恰当地根据给定情境迅速成文，而且也要有较高的语言能力。因此，在平时的准备过程中，考生应全面了解和掌握各种常见应用文体的写作格式、方法和特点，尤其是要熟悉各类文体的基本结构和常用句型。大纲中规定的应用文文体的种类包括私人和公务信函、备忘录、摘要、报告等。鉴于考试的要求和实际情况，文章的长度以及文体应用的广泛程度，我们认为应用文写作主要分为两大类：信函类应用文和告示类应用文。其中信函类应用文种类繁多、应用广泛，因此比较重要;告示类应用文虽然写法不同，但总体上的格式和要求是一致的，不能忽略其重要性。另外，应用文写作也有可能出现在平时的生活中，考生也要学会实际运用。

应用文的实际用途决定了其语言应简洁明了，但并不要求复杂多变、词藻华丽。应用文一般需要开门见山，一开始就明确地表达主要意思或目的;文章要求思路清晰，目标明确，语气恰当;尤其是公文信函中，一定要注意语言的正式和礼貌，遵循交际原则;最后还要注意细节，确保事件、数字、日期等信息的准确传达和标点符号的正确使用。

第二节题型解析

一、信函类应用文

书信是我们用以交涉事务、增进了解、交流思想、联络感情的一个重要工具。就其文体可分为正式和非正式的文体;就其种类可分为私人信件、社交信件、商务信件和公务信件;就其用途可分为求职信、咨询信、感谢信、投诉信、建议信、邀请信、推荐信等。这里先就书信的一般写作格式加以介绍。

一封正规的英文书信的结构或框架由以下五部分组成：

1.The Heading 信端

2.The Salutation 称谓

3.The Body 正文

4.The Close 结尾

5.The Signature 签名

下面分别对这五个部分进行详细的分析：

1.信端(或信头)

信端是写信是最先要写的，也就是你的地址和写信日期。当然，如果你的长期通信地址收信人已知道，信端只写日期也行。

写信端时至少要离纸的边缘三、四行开始写，信端写在信纸右上角。先写发信人地址，第一行写门牌号码和街道名称;第二行写区名、市(县)名、省(州)名;寄往国外的信，还要加上国家的名称;第三行写发信日期。

日期的写法应注意以下几点：

(1)年份应写完整，不能以09代替2009;

(2)月份通常用缩写形式(May, June, July除外);

(3)日期最好用基数词，这样简单明了;

(4)如果都用阿拉伯数字，一般顺序是：日、月、年。

整个日期可用下列几种表达方式：

Oct.15, 2009

15th Oct.2009Oct.2009

注意：日期与年份之间总要用逗号隔开，但月份与日期之间不用逗号(全用阿拉伯数字除外)。

2.称谓

信的称谓是对收信人的尊称语。一般在信纸的左边顶格开始书写，低于信内地址一、二行;如果没有信内地址，就低与信端一、二行。

不管写给何人的信都首先写上Dear。给一般朋友的信，Dear 后跟名字，如Dear Mary;给母亲的信，Dear 后跟称谓，如 Dear Mother;给长辈亲戚的信，Dear 后跟称谓，如 Dear Uncle John;给不太相识的人写信，Dear后跟先生、夫人、小姐等称呼，再跟姓，如 Dear Mr.Brown, Dear Miss Jenny;如果不知对方姓名，可直接写 Dear Sir或 Dear Madam，如连对方的性别都不知道，就写 Dear Sir/Madam。

千万不要根据汉语的习惯用下列称呼，如 Dear Friend, Mr.Frank Smith等。称呼后一般用逗号，但美国和加拿大英语常用冒号。

3.正文

信的正文是一封信最重要的部分，它包含你要说的话或你的个人信息等。

信的正文在称呼的下面一行，一般在信纸左边五六个字母的空隙后开始写。写正文时，如果涉及的事务较多，可以分段叙述。每段开头都要留空格，每句第一个字母都应大写。信的正文应简明扼要，条理清楚，语言通俗易懂。信的开头语和结束语多种多样。常见的开头语有：

I was so pleased to receive your letter...Thank you for your kind letter...Sorry for delaying this letter so long...常见的结束语有：

Best wishes to you.Take good care of yourself and write often.Our warm regards to your parents.4.结尾

信的结尾即在签名前再一次表示敬意和问候。信的结尾写在低于正文两、三行的地方，大都从信纸中间偏右的位置写起，只第一个字母大写，句末应用逗号。确切的措辞取决于书信的种类以及与收信人的友谊深浅和亲昵程度。如果写给一般相识，就不应用“Devoutly yours，”或者“With deepest affection,”也不要用冷漠和正式的 “Very truly yours,”写给一位很喜欢的老相识，结尾既不要过分使用华丽辞藻，也不可粗鲁无礼，而是要恰到好处的用词。

写给专业人士的商务信函，一般用正式的社交语言结尾。如：“Very truly yours.”一般非正式的社交信函，通常使用下列结尾：Sincerely yours, Yours very sincerely, Always sincerely yours, Yours cordially, Most cordially yours, Faithfully yours 等。对于密友或亲戚可以用这些结尾：Yours affectionately, Always affectionately yours, Lovingly yours, Yours Loving sister, With love 等。

至于情书，那要看爱情的深厚程度如何，可以用一般性的结尾“Fondly yours,” 也可用冲动的 “Yours with the utmost devotion,”。

我们中国人用英语写信，往往受汉语书信格式和语言的影响，所以要注意不要用中国式的结尾如 “I salute to you,” “Salute,”等。

5.签名

写信人将自己的名字签在结尾的下面，偏向信纸的右边，名字签完一般要靠近右边边缘。签名时要注意名字的拼法：一是不要带有任何头衔，二是中国人的姓名若是两个汉字的名字，其拼音的首字母都要大写，如 “Li Ming”(而现在最流行的写法是姓氏的字母全都要大写，如LI Ming, 以便让人区别姓氏与名字);若是三个字的名字则第一、二个拼音字母大写，第三个与第二个无间隔首字母小写，如： “Liu Xiaoming”。

考研作文中没有对英文信封的考查要求，故在此只作简单介绍，作为考生的知识扩充。英文信封的写法与中文信封的写法不同。发信人的地址应写在信封左上角，收信人的地址应写在信封中间。
