考研英语写作小作文之备忘录
在考研英语的Part A 小作文部分,除了书信这个考查重点之外,《大纲》还明确规定了另外两种告示类应用文的考查形式,即通知和备忘录。上篇文章中,我们已经详细讨论过了通知的写作方法及其注意事项。对此,大家务必要仔细总结和研究,理清通知的写作思路。除此之外,对于备忘录,大家也须认真准备格式写作方法以及正文的写作思路,因此本文就对此种应用文进行深入的解析。
备忘录,英文中称为memo或者memorandum,是一种记录有关活动或事务,起揭示或提醒作用,以免忘却或忽视的应用文。写作时,内容须详实、具体、完备,语言要朴实、准确。
首先,作为一种独立的应用文类型,备忘录自成一家,有其独特的规范化的写作格式。而格式恰当又是考研英语小作文中非常重要的一项评分标准,因此首先我们就对备忘录的写作格式进行说明讲解。一般说来,完整而又正式的备忘录的格式通常如下:
Memo
To:
From:
Date:
Subject:
对此备忘录的格式大家需要清晰掌握,尤其是涉及到一些细节问题,比如Subject下面就是正文内容,但是这两者之间确是要空两行的空间,这也是《大纲解析》上面的范文所明确使用的格式;其次,之前所写过的各种书信以及通知在正文之后都有署名,而备忘录的最后却是没有的。对于这些细节问题大家可以与书信,通知等对比着去记,以免弄混三者。
以上就是备忘录的格式问题。接下来就以范文为例主要看一下其正文内容的写作思路。
一般来说,在考研英语中,备忘录主体部分的写作可按照三个步骤进行,即“三步走”策略。
Memo
To: All Employees
From: Berry Silver, President
Date: June 22nd, 2014
Subject: Entertainments or Gifts during Spring Festival
At around this time of year, many invitations are received from companies and clients to Spring Festival dinners.Gifts are also sometimes received.I am sure that such offers only result from a job being well done and it is certainly pleasing to know that the level of service provided by staff is appreciated.However, the acceptance of any offers, entertainment or gifts, can lead to either a real or perceived conflict of interest.To ensure that this does not arise, all such offers should be declined and gifts returned.I should appreciate your understanding and cooperation.首段:一般来说,无论是书信还是通知,来源:凯程考研集训营,资料获取、课程辅导咨询凯程老师
但是在备忘录中,情况却并不如此。鉴于备忘录是起提示或警示作用的应用文,因此在表明这种提示或警示的主要目的前需要先介绍此事件的发生背景,主要包含相关事情及人物的介绍等等。
中段:此段就是要写明通知的主要内容,也就是其写作目的了。到底是要提醒写作对象某个事情呢还是警示收信对象不要去做某些事情,则是由具体题目而定了。不过,不管怎么说,思路一定要富有逻辑,语言切记要委婉,尤其是警示对方时,这一点就显得更为重要了。
尾段:本段中,紧接前面内容,说完自己的主要目的之后,就要进行结尾了。作为一封警示性的备忘录,结尾中自然是要向写作对象表明希望其理解并合作的期望了。
以上就是考研英语应用文写作中备忘录的格式规范以及写作思路的梳理,至于具体的句型表达,则需大家按照具体题目来自行安排了。

Write an essay of 160-200 words based on the following drawing.In your essay, you should first describe the drawing, then interpret its meaning, and give your comment on it.You should write on ANSWER SHEET 2.真题分析
本题是非常典型的看图作文。乍一看这是一场非常奇怪的足球赛,竟然有四个球门。仔细一看才发现原来这是一场赡养老人足球赛。我们很容易就可以发现其中人物关系。守着四个球门的是老人的三个儿子和一个女儿,他们的衣着显示出了他们有足够的经济能力来赡养父亲,但是他们都不愿意承担这个责任。很明显出题者要求考生批判这种不良社会风气,对那些不愿意赡养老人的儿女们提出谴责,并指出尊敬老人是我们中华民族的传统美德,应该继续发扬。
思路拓展
我们可以发现,近几年来的考研题目选取了许多关系到人们的道德水准、价值取向等方面相关的社会问题。家庭和亲情是我们这个社会永恒的主题,其中涉及到子女教育、父母与子女之间的感情关、利益关系等等,许多都是非常发人深省的。考生要重点关注道德方面的社会热点问题,为考研积累素材。
范文
The cartoon displays a very special and thought-provoking soccer game: the four goals are kept by an old man''s three sons and one daughter, while the old man himself becomes the ball, being kicked among the four corners by his beloved children.It is clearly indicated that none of them is willing to spare a tiny portion of time and money to repay their old father who have raised them.Through the artistic presentation, we can be easily reminded of a popular phenomenon in today''s society, that is, disrespect towards elders and shirking of the responsibility of nursing aging parents.The boosting economic development in China sadly witnesses a deterioration of the public awareness of filial duty, which had taken an indispensable position in traditional Chinese values for thousands of years.However, as the society grows more benefit-oriented, the once unbroken bond between parents and children is fundamentally shaken and begins to collapse.In my point of view, the trend goes quite against the genuine and original purpose of our pursuit of wealth and welfare, that is, to shape a rich life both materially and mentally.Thinking of the love we received from our parents when swaggering babies, we must realize that repaying parents by a happy life with financial and psychological support is not only a duty that should not be shrugged off, but a key element to achieve a harmonious society.译文
这幅漫画展示了一场特殊而又发人深省的足球赛:四个球门由一个老人的三个儿子和一个女儿分别把守,而老人自己则是那个足球,在四个角落之间被他“亲爱的”孩子们踢来踢去。很显然,哪个孩子都不愿意花一点点时间和金钱来报答曾经抚育他们成长的老父亲。
这幅图以艺术的方式提醒我们当今社会的一个普遍现象,那就是人们对老人的不尊敬、以及逃避赡养父母的责任。中国经济的迅速发展却带来了人们孝顺意识减退,这是让人悲哀的、也极具讽刺意味,因为赡养老人的责任在中国几千年的传统价值中占有重要的地位。但是,随着社会上追求利益的风气日益盛行,父母和子女之间那种曾经无法割裂的关系却受到了根本性的动摇。
我认为这种趋势与我们追求财富和利益的初衷是违背的,我们的目的是达到物质和精神的双丰收。想一想当我们还是蹒跚学步的孩子时父母曾给我们的爱,我们应该意识到回报给父母金钱和精神上的幸福生活不仅仅是我们无法推却的责任,也是我们实现和谐社会的重要因素。

Study the following photos carefully and write an essay in which you should:
1)describe the photo briefly.2)interpret the social phenomenon reflected by them, and.3)give your points of view.You should write about 200 words on ANSWER SHEET 2.真题分析:
本题又出现了照片,而且这一次是两幅照片。但是这两幅照片没有对比关系,只是并列关系,用来说明同一个问题。左图中一个男子将贝克汉姆的名字写在自己的脸上,右图另一个男子不惜花300元来做一个“小贝头”,这两种现象都是源自他们对于贝克汉姆的疯狂崇拜。明星崇拜在我们现在这个社会中已经见怪不怪了,正是人们的追星使得娱乐业发展成为了一个巨大的产业。许多青少年和年轻人只是因为某个明星歌唱得好,或者戏演得好,或者长得帅气或者漂亮,就盲目地对他们进行崇拜,模仿明星的一言一行,而对于其中良莠不齐的影响不加辨别、全盘吸收,从而影响了他们自身的成长和发展。因此,我们很容易就可以判断出本题的目的在于指出年轻人应该树立正确的世界观、人生观、价值观,树立积极向上的人生追求和生活方式。
思路拓展:
这一类题型包括了除上述9类热点问题以外的其他各类问题,内容自然包括万象,需要考生关注平时生活中的点点滴滴细节。对于一些社会问题,我们可以指出道德和价值取向上的对与错;对于另一些问题,我们只需要提出自己的见解和看法,因为那些问题本身就不存在是否真理或谬误的限制。考生需要靠自己的知识和判断,在面对考题是灵活应对。
范文:
The two pictures illustrate vividly the popularity of the famous British soccer star David Beckham.In the left picture a man painted Beckham''s name on his face to show his support for Beckham, while in the right another is willing to spend three hundred yuan to have a hairstyle that is exactly the same as Beckham''s.From the two pictures we can sense a crazy tendency of idol worship in today''s China.Star fans, the majority of whom are teenagers and young adults, are used to blindly following every aspect of celebrities''behavior, accepting both positive and negative influences as universal truths.Aside from Beckham, another telling example is the nation-wide Super-Girl competitions held in past two years in China.They were so successful in drawing fans'' attention and emotions that the ups and downs of the super girls had almost constituted the whole lives of their frenetic followers.Admittedly, it is natural that those cool and fashionable stars seem attractive to the youth.Nevertheless, it is the responsibility of our government and society to guide young people in building a wholesome outlook towards the world and life.In my opinion, what''s most important is to have them adore worthy values and qualities, such as honesty, diligence, and persistence.译文:
这两幅图生动地展现了英国足球明星贝克汉姆的受欢迎程度。在左边的图中一个男人把贝克汉姆的名字醒目地写在脸上以显示对小贝的支持,右边的这幅图中另一个人愿意花300元钱做一个和贝克汉姆一样的发型。
从这两幅图中我们可以看到在当今中国疯狂的偶像崇拜趋势。追星族大多数都是青少年和年轻人,他们盲目地模仿名人各个方面的行为,并把名人的正面和负面影响都当作普遍适用的真理。除了贝克汉姆,另一个生动的例子就是在过去的两年中盛行于中国的“超女比赛”,这场比赛成功地调动了追星族们的注意力和情感,以至于“超女”们的起伏跌宕几乎构成了那些狂热歌迷们的全部生活。
诚然,既酷又时髦的明星对年轻人有很大的吸引力。但是,政府和社会有责任指导年轻人们建立健康的世界观和人生观。我认为最重要的是让年轻人追求更有价值的品质,如诚实、勤奋、坚持不懈等。

本题承袭了考研漫画内容简洁、寓意深刻的风格。一个满头大汗的运动员正冲破了一次长跑比赛的终点,而在终点的不远处,赫然标着两个大字“起点”。通过漫画的题目“终点又是新起点”,考生很容易就可以抓住本题的中心论点:在人生道路上,我们不能仅仅满足于一两次的成功,而只有不断地追求,我们才能取得进步和发展。这也符合哲学上事物是不断发展的这一趋势和真理。针对这类人生奋斗类的题型,一般提纲都会要求考生举出事例,即使提纲没有要求,考生最好也能够写出一两个事例,以增强文章的说服力。一般来说,在这种情况下,举残疾人、先进人物等的例子会比较切题,有效地加强文章的力度。
思路拓展
范文:
The picture presents a young runner who just finishes a long run and arrives at the finish line, sweating and smiling.While he stand at the end, a sign stating beginning lies not far away from his position, indicating that an end means a new beginning.It is true that when a runner reaches the end of one race, he needs to realize that his immediate task is how to achieve the next goal, instead of indulging the past glory and accomplishment.The identical truth applies to every individual, organization, and nation, that setting new goals continuously is the source of advancement.The deaf and mute American girl Helen Keller is a typical example of our case, as she had spent her whole life struggling and striving for one goal after another.It is not surprising that she finally turned out to be an excellent writer.Equally, businesses and industries should keep setting new tasks in order to preserve their competitiveness.Microsoft, for instance, never ceases creating new products the company launched Vista, Office 2007 and Exchange Server recently though it is already being such a huge conglomerate.In short, it is non-stop efforts that lead to progress.译文:
该图展示了一个运动员刚完成一场赛跑、达到终点,他满头大汗但是却非常满意地微笑着。在他所站的终点标志附近,该图标出了“起点”的标志,说明了“终点是新的起点”。
确实,当一个运动员跑到终点的时候,他必须马上意识到他的下一个任务是达到新的目标,而不是沉湎于过去的荣耀和成就。同样的道理也适用于每一个个人、组织、以及国家,即不断地设立新的目标才能不断地前进。
聋哑的美国女孩海伦。凯勒是这方面的一个典型例子,因为她一生都在为一个接一个的目标而努力和奋斗。因此,她最后变成了一个优秀的作家并不令人惊讶。同样的,工商界如果想要保持它们的竞争力,就要不断地为自己设立新任务。例如,微软公司作为如此大型的一个集团,也从来没有停止创造新产品的脚步,该公司在最近发布了Vista,Office2007和Exchange Server三大产品。总的来说,永不停止的努力才能引领进步和发展。
闪光词汇及词组:
sweating and smiling: 这里我们要介绍英语中的一种特殊的修辞方法,叫做alliteration,即“头韵”。一般在汉语以及英语中我们讲究压尾韵,而英语中经常可以把一些开头的辅音相同的单词组合在一起,读起来也非常琅琅上口。考生如果能在平时有意识地收集这些头韵组合,在考试中用上一两个,会大大为文章添彩。类似的短语还有我们在“经典应用文背诵”部分中提到的safe and sound.“He has more brawn than brain”,他四肢发达头脑简单。
achieve: v.达到,完成 glory: n.荣耀,光荣
accomplishment: n.成就
identical: adj.同一的,同样的 advancement: n.前进,进步
turn out to be: 变成 conglomerate: n.大集团

Write an essay of 160-200 words based on the following drawing.In your essay, you should:
1)describe the drawing briefly
2)explain its intended meaning, and then
3)support your view with an example/examples.You should write on ANSWER SHEET 2.真题分析:
在这道最新的考研题目中,出题漫画较往年显得更加生动有趣,寓意也十分明显。在一位球员即将进球的瞬间,球员和守门员都显得犹豫不决。球员认为守门员长得极其高大从而挡住了球门,使他的攻击几乎变成了“missionimpossible”(不可能完成的任务)。同时,守门员却觉得自己太渺小而球门太大,守门的任务十分艰巨,同样也是“missionimpossible”。对于有中文文化背景的学生来说,很容易就可以联想到《孙子兵法》中说的“知己知彼,百战不殆”,也就是说,只有充分了解自己和对手的所有优缺点,我们才能够有足够的信心取得最终的胜利。从这一点上我们可以继续引申,说明无论是个人、组织甚至对于国家来说,无论遇到什么情况,都要正确的评估自己以及具体事例的特点,从而充满信心地去取得应该取得的成就。
思路拓展:
关于人生价值类的题目在短短几年时间内竟然考了两次,这必须引起我们的高度重视。出题者的思路也是可以理解的,正在参加考研的大学生们都风华正茂,处于人生扬帆的关键时刻。这个时候大学生们需要树立正确的世界观、人生观和价值观,从而有助于他们在将来的人生道路上取得成功。
人生价值的内容包罗万象,有对成功的理解、对生活的态度、对知识和学习的定位等等,以及如何面对困境和挫折、如何正确认识金钱和人生的关系等等。这一类话题并不总是热点话题,但又和许多领域紧密相连,特别是和教育领域的相关话题有关。同时,我们在许多社会现象中也可以发现人们不同的人生价值,媒体上也经常组织相关的大讨论,考生应予以密切关注。
范文:
This picture shows a critical moment that can occur in any soccer game—a players is about to kick the ball while the keeper is fully ready for the attack.Interestingly, the player and the keeper are experiencing quite opposite psychological processes: the player thinks the task is extremely difficult as the goal is quite small compared with the huge keeper, while the latter fears that the goal is too enormous for him to protect.It is conspicuously indicated that in order to gain confidence and achieve success, we not only need to attain a thorough understanding of ourown merits and disadvantages of ourselves, but also those aspects of our opponents.Both the player and the keeper merely focus on their own faults and their counterparts''advantages, leading to their hesitation at the key time.In a recent interview of hurdler Liu Xiang, he revealed that his success is partly owed to his training team''s study of his strong competitors around the world, so that he can learn from the others and is more confident when facing any new race.Just as the ancient Chinese philosophical book The Art of War concludes, if you know yourself and your enemy, you''ll never lose a battle.译文:
该图展示的是一场足球比赛中的关键时刻——一个球员正准备要进球,而守门员正全力准备回击这次进攻。有趣的是,球员和守门员正在经历相反的心理历程:球员认为这项任务非常艰巨,因为球门如此之小而守门员长得高达威猛;守门员却害怕球门太大而他自己太渺小,很难保护球门。
这幅图告诉我们,为了取得信心、达到胜利,我们不仅要对自己的优缺点有充分的了解,而且还要对对手的优缺点有充分了解。但是,图中的球员和守门员只想到了自己的缺点和对手的优点,因此在关键时刻踌躇不前。
在对著名中国运动员刘翔的一个最近的采访中,他透露了自己的成功部分归功于他的训练队详细研究了他在世界各国的对手们的特点,因此他可以学习他人的优点,于是面对比赛的时候更有信心。就像中国古代著名的兵书《孙子兵法》总结的那样,知己知彼,百战不殆。

Write an essay of 160-200 words based on the following drawing.In your essay, you should first describe the drawing, then interpret its meaning, and give your comment on it.You should write on ANSWER SHEET 2.真题分析
本题是非常典型的看图作文。乍一看这是一场非常奇怪的足球赛,竟然有四个球门。仔细一看才发现原来这是一场赡养老人足球赛。我们很容易就可以发现其中人物关系。守着四个球门的是老人的三个儿子和一个女儿,他们的衣着显示出了他们有足够的经济能力来赡养父亲,但是他们都不愿意承担这个责任。很明显出题者要求考生批判这种不良社会风气,对那些不愿意赡养老人的儿女们提出谴责,并指出尊敬老人是我们中华民族的传统美德,应该继续发扬。
思路拓展
我们可以发现,近几年来的考研题目选取了许多关系到人们的道德水准、价值取向等方面相关的社会问题。家庭和亲情是我们这个社会永恒的主题,其中涉及到子女教育、父母与子女之间的感情关、利益关系等等,许多都是非常发人深省的。考生要重点关注道德方面的社会热点问题,为考研积累素材。
范文
The cartoon displays a very special and thought-provoking soccer game: the four goals are kept by an old man''s three sons and one daughter, while the old man himself becomes the ball, being kicked among the four corners by his beloved children.It is clearly indicated that none of them is willing to spare a tiny portion of time and money to repay their old father who have raised them.Through the artistic presentation, we can be easily reminded of a popular phenomenon in today''s society, that is, disrespect towards elders and shirking of the responsibility of nursing aging parents.The boosting economic development in China sadly witnesses a deterioration of the public awareness of filial duty, which had taken an indispensable position in traditional Chinese values for thousands of years.However, as the society grows more benefit-oriented, the once unbroken bond between parents and children is fundamentally shaken and begins to collapse.In my point of view, the trend goes quite against the genuine and original purpose of our pursuit of wealth and welfare, that is, to shape a rich life both materially and mentally.Thinking of the love we received from our parents when swaggering babies, we must realize that repaying parents by a happy life with financial and psychological support is not only a duty that should not be shrugged off, but a key element to achieve a harmonious society.译文
这幅漫画展示了一场特殊而又发人深省的足球赛:四个球门由一个老人的三个儿子和一个女儿分别把守,而老人自己则是那个足球,在四个角落之间被他“亲爱的”孩子们踢来踢去。很显然,哪个孩子都不愿意花一点点时间和金钱来报答曾经抚育他们成长的老父亲。
这幅图以艺术的方式提醒我们当今社会的一个普遍现象,那就是人们对老人的不尊敬、以及逃避赡养父母的责任。中国经济的迅速发展却带来了人们孝顺意识减退,这是让人悲哀的、也极具讽刺意味,因为赡养老人的责任在中国几千年的传统价值中占有重要的地位。但是,随着社会上追求利益的风气日益盛行,父母和子女之间那种曾经无法割裂的关系却受到了根本性的动摇。
我认为这种趋势与我们追求财富和利益的初衷是违背的,我们的目的是达到物质和精神的双丰收。想一想当我们还是蹒跚学步的孩子时父母曾给我们的爱,我们应该意识到回报给父母金钱和精神上的幸福生活不仅仅是我们无法推却的责任,也是我们实现和谐社会的重要因素。

1)describe the photo briefly.2)interpret the social phenomenon reflected by them, and.3)give your points of view.You should write about 200 words on ANSWER SHEET 2.真题分析:
本题又出现了照片,而且这一次是两幅照片。但是这两幅照片没有对比关系,只是并列关系,用来说明同一个问题。左图中一个男子将贝克汉姆的名字写在自己的脸上,右图另一个男子不惜花300元来做一个“小贝头”,这两种现象都是源自他们对于贝克汉姆的疯狂崇拜。明星崇拜在我们现在这个社会中已经见怪不怪了,正是人们的追星使得娱乐业发展成为了一个巨大的产业。许多青少年和年轻人只是因为某个明星歌唱得好,或者戏演得好,或者长得帅气或者漂亮,就盲目地对他们进行崇拜,模仿明星的一言一行,而对于其中良莠不齐的影响不加辨别、全盘吸收,从而影响了他们自身的成长和发展。因此,我们很容易就可以判断出本题的目的在于指出年轻人应该树立正确的世界观、人生观、价值观,树立积极向上的人生追求和生活方式。
思路拓展:
这一类题型包括了除上述9类热点问题以外的其他各类问题,内容自然包括万象,需要考生关注平时生活中的点点滴滴细节。对于一些社会问题,我们可以指出道德和价值取向上的对与错;对于另一些问题,我们只需要提出自己的见解和看法,因为那些问题本身就不存在是否真理或谬误的限制。考生需要靠自己的知识和判断,在面对考题是灵活应对。
范文:
The two pictures illustrate vividly the popularity of the famous British soccer star David Beckham.In the left picture a man painted Beckham''s name on his face to show his support for Beckham, while in the right another is willing to spend three hundred yuan to have a hairstyle that is exactly the same as Beckham''s.From the two pictures we can sense a crazy tendency of idol worship in today''s China.Star fans, the majority of whom are teenagers and young adults, are used to blindly following every aspect of celebrities''behavior, accepting both positive and negative influences as universal truths.Aside from Beckham, another telling example is the nation-wide Super-Girl competitions held in past two years in China.They were so successful in drawing fans'' attention and emotions that the ups and downs of the super girls had almost constituted the whole lives of their frenetic followers.Admittedly, it is natural that those cool and fashionable stars seem attractive to the youth.Nevertheless, it is the responsibility of our government and society to guide young people in building a wholesome outlook towards the world and life.In my opinion, what''s most important is to have them adore worthy values and qualities, such as honesty, diligence, and persistence.译文:
这两幅图生动地展现了英国足球明星贝克汉姆的受欢迎程度。在左边的图中一个男人把贝克汉姆的名字醒目地写在脸上以显示对小贝的支持,右边的这幅图中另一个人愿意花300元钱做一个和贝克汉姆一样的发型。
从这两幅图中我们可以看到在当今中国疯狂的偶像崇拜趋势。追星族大多数都是青少年和年轻人,他们盲目地模仿名人各个方面的行为,并把名人的正面和负面影响都当作普遍适用的真理。除了贝克汉姆,另一个生动的例子就是在过去的两年中盛行于中国的“超女比赛”,这场比赛成功地调动了追星族们的注意力和情感,以至于“超女”们的起伏跌宕几乎构成了那些狂热歌迷们的全部生活。
诚然,既酷又时髦的明星对年轻人有很大的吸引力。但是,政府和社会有责任指导年轻人们建立健康的世界观和人生观。我认为最重要的是让年轻人追求更有价值的品质,如诚实、勤奋、坚持不懈等。

Directions:
Study the following drawing carefully and write an essay in which you should:
1)describe the drawing
2)interpret its meaning, and
3)support your view with examples.You should write about 200 words on ANSWER SHEET 2.真题分析:
本题承袭了考研漫画内容简洁、寓意深刻的风格。一个满头大汗的运动员正冲破了一次长跑比赛的终点,而在终点的不远处,赫然标着两个大字“起点”。通过漫画的题目“终点又是新起点”,考生很容易就可以抓住本题的中心论点:在人生道路上,我们不能仅仅满足于一两次的成功,而只有不断地追求,我们才能取得进步和发展。这也符合哲学上事物是不断发展的这一趋势和真理。针对这类人生奋斗类的题型,一般提纲都会要求考生举出事例,即使提纲没有要求,考生最好也能够写出一两个事例,以增强文章的说服力。一般来说,在这种情况下,举残疾人、先进人物等的例子会比较切题,有效地加强文章的力度。
思路拓展
范文:
The picture presents a young runner who just finishes a long run and arrives at the finish line, sweating and smiling.While he stand at the end, a sign stating beginning lies not far away from his position, indicating that an end means a new beginning.It is true that when a runner reaches the end of one race, he needs to realize that his immediate task is how to achieve the next goal, instead of indulging the past glory and accomplishment.The identical truth applies to every individual, organization, and nation, that setting new goals continuously is the source of advancement.The deaf and mute American girl Helen Keller is a typical example of our case, as she had spent her whole life struggling and striving for one goal after another.It is not surprising that she finally turned out to be an excellent writer.Equally, businesses and industries should keep setting new tasks in order to preserve their competitiveness.Microsoft, for instance, never ceases creating new products the company launched Vista, Office 2007 and Exchange Server recently though it is already being such a huge conglomerate.In short, it is non-stop efforts that lead to progress.译文:
该图展示了一个运动员刚完成一场赛跑、达到终点,他满头大汗但是却非常满意地微笑着。在他所站的终点标志附近,该图标出了“起点”的标志,说明了“终点是新的起点”。
确实,当一个运动员跑到终点的时候,他必须马上意识到他的下一个任务是达到新的目标,而不是沉湎于过去的荣耀和成就。同样的道理也适用于每一个个人、组织、以及国家,即不断地设立新的目标才能不断地前进。
聋哑的美国女孩海伦。凯勒是这方面的一个典型例子,因为她一生都在为一个接一个的目标而努力和奋斗。因此,她最后变成了一个优秀的作家并不令人惊讶。同样的,工商界如果想要保持它们的竞争力,就要不断地为自己设立新任务。例如,微软公司作为如此大型的一个集团,也从来没有停止创造新产品的脚步,该公司在最近发布了Vista,Office2007和Exchange Server三大产品。总的来说,永不停止的努力才能引领进步和发展。
闪光词汇及词组:
sweating and smiling: 这里我们要介绍英语中的一种特殊的修辞方法,叫做alliteration,即“头韵”。一般在汉语以及英语中我们讲究压尾韵,而英语中经常可以把一些开头的辅音相同的单词组合在一起,读起来也非常琅琅上口。考生如果能在平时有意识地收集这些头韵组合,在考试中用上一两个,会大大为文章添彩。类似的短语还有我们在“经典应用文背诵”部分中提到的safe and sound.“He has more brawn than brain”,他四肢发达头脑简单。
achieve: v.达到,完成 glory: n.荣耀,光荣
accomplishment: n.成就

advancement: n.前进,进步
turn out to be: 变成 conglomerate: n.大集团

Write an essay of 160-200 words based on the following drawing.In your essay, you should:
1)describe the drawing briefly
2)explain its intended meaning, and then
3)support your view with an example/examples.You should write on ANSWER SHEET 2.真题分析:
在这道最新的考研题目中,出题漫画较往年显得更加生动有趣,寓意也十分明显。在一位球员即将进球的瞬间,球员和守门员都显得犹豫不决。球员认为守门员长得极其高大从而挡住了球门,使他的攻击几乎变成了“missionimpossible”(不可能完成的任务)。同时,守门员却觉得自己太渺小而球门太大,守门的任务十分艰巨,同样也是“missionimpossible”。对于有中文文化背景的学生来说,很容易就可以联想到《孙子兵法》中说的“知己知彼,百战不殆”,也就是说,只有充分了解自己和对手的所有优缺点,我们才能够有足够的信心取得最终的胜利。从这一点上我们可以继续引申,说明无论是个人、组织甚至对于国家来说,无论遇到什么情况,都要正确的评估自己以及具体事例的特点,从而充满信心地去取得应该取得的成就。
思路拓展:
关于人生价值类的题目在短短几年时间内竟然考了两次,这必须引起我们的高度重视。出题者的思路也是可以理解的,正在参加考研的大学生们都风华正茂,处于人生扬帆的关键时刻。这个时候大学生们需要树立正确的世界观、人生观和价值观,从而有助于他们在将来的人生道路上取得成功。
人生价值的内容包罗万象,有对成功的理解、对生活的态度、对知识和学习的定位等等,以及如何面对困境和挫折、如何正确认识金钱和人生的关系等等。这一类话题并不总是热点话题,但又和许多领域紧密相连,特别是和教育领域的相关话题有关。同时,我们在许多社会现象中也可以发现人们不同的人生价值,媒体上也经常组织相关的大讨论,考生应予以密切关注。
范文:
This picture shows a critical moment that can occur in any soccer game—a players is about to kick the ball while the keeper is fully ready for the attack.Interestingly, the player and the keeper are experiencing quite opposite psychological processes: the player thinks the task is extremely difficult as the goal is quite small compared with the huge keeper, while the latter fears that the goal is too enormous for him to protect.It is conspicuously indicated that in order to gain confidence and achieve success, we not only need to attain a thorough understanding of ourown merits and disadvantages of ourselves, but also those aspects of our opponents.Both the player and the keeper merely focus on their own faults and their counterparts''advantages, leading to their hesitation at the key time.In a recent interview of hurdler Liu Xiang, he revealed that his success is partly owed to his training team''s study of his strong competitors around the world, so that he can learn from the others and is more confident when facing any new race.Just as the ancient Chinese philosophical book The Art of War concludes, if you know yourself and your enemy, you''ll never lose a battle.译文:
该图展示的是一场足球比赛中的关键时刻——一个球员正准备要进球,而守门员正全力准备回击这次进攻。有趣的是,球员和守门员正在经历相反的心理历程:球员认为这项任务非常艰巨,因为球门如此之小而守门员长得高达威猛;守门员却害怕球门太大而他自己太渺小,很难保护球门。
这幅图告诉我们,为了取得信心、达到胜利,我们不仅要对自己的优缺点有充分的了解,而且还要对对手的优缺点有充分了解。但是,图中的球员和守门员只想到了自己的缺点和对手的优点,因此在关键时刻踌躇不前。
在对著名中国运动员刘翔的一个最近的采访中,他透露了自己的成功部分归功于他的训练队详细研究了他在世界各国的对手们的特点,因此他可以学习他人的优点,于是面对比赛的时候更有信心。就像中国古代著名的兵书《孙子兵法》总结的那样,知己知彼,百战不殆。

第四篇:考研英语应用文写作备忘录
考研英语应用文写作备忘录模板
考研英语应用文写作备忘录模板 2006-6-6 16:27
一、概述
备忘录是一种录以备忘的公文。在公文函件中,它的等级是比较低的,主要用来提醒、督促对方,或就某个问题提出自己的意见或看法。在业务上,它一般用来补充正式文件的不足。它的内容可以分为以下几项: 书端(Heading)
收文人的姓名、头衔、地址(Addressee‘s Name,Title,Address)称呼(Salutation)事因(Subject)正文(Body)
结束语(Complimentary Close)署名(Signature)
二、备忘录写作注意事项
1、书端部分包括发文机关的名称、地址、发文日期,有的还包括电报挂号、电传号、电话号码等。许多机关有自己特制的信笺,在写书端时,其格式和标点符号的使用与一般信件的相同。
2、称呼从左边顶格写起,对一般机关、团体的负责人一般用 Dear Sir,对政府官员可用Sir.3、正文、结束语和署名等项与一般信件的格式相同。“事因”一项目前采用得较少。
三、经典范文(共有5篇范文)例1 Directions: Write a memorandum of about 100 words to the student service department and ask them to fix a telephone for each dormitory.MEMO
August 16,2005 To: The leader of student service department From: Li Ming Subject: Telephone Dear Sir,I would like to remind you that we are in want of a telephone for each dormitory.As a university student,we need to cope with the daily increasing communications with teachers,friends and people outside the campus.We need a telephone to get and send message,which is important for us.Though most of us have mobile phones and e-mail address,a telephone in the dormitory is after all the most convenient and cheapest tool of communication.I hope that you will pay attention to this problem and solve it as soon as possible.Regards.Yours,Li Ming 注:“remind”一词用法比较多,可以在后面直接接人或宾格,如“提醒我”译为“please remind me”。如果提醒某人某事则用“remind somebody of something”,也可以在后面加从句,即“remind sb that”,“remind”还有一个意思为“使想起”同样用“remind„of„”的结构,应注意与提醒某事区分。
例2 Directions:You are supposed to write a Memorandom of about 100 words to the leader of the supply section to borrow one more microscope for your biological experiment.It should include: 1)Why you need the microscope.2)When you need it.考研英语应用文写作备忘录模板

1)The result of his requirement.2)The reason for rejecting.3)some suggestions You should write about 100 words.To: Records Section From:P.steelpes,Career Planning Subject:Request for Paid Education Leave Date:May 22,2005 In response to your request for one year of paid education leave to take a degree in English literature,I have to inform you that we cannot authorize this leave.While we appreciate your desire to improve your knowledge,we feel that English literature is not directly related to your present position and to the goals of this organization.I am aware of your great interest in literature,and I would like to point out that you could gain advantage to apply for leave without pay.If you need another information on the above,do not hesitate to keep touch with me at any time.P.steelpes 注:首先要注意本篇备忘录的格式很标准。然后注意这个备忘录的个别词的用法,譬如:be aware of 注意到、当心的意思,point out 指出,request for 要求,in response to 反馈。
例4 Directions:You are a supervisor of a big company.The chief of operations wants to adopt the“punch-in”system to increase productivity.Write a memo to talk about this: 1)Does the 'punch-in“system benefit the company?
考研英语应用文写作备忘录模板

例5 Directions:You are a manager of administration office naming Vera.M.Bradford.The board of directors have decided to anew the Fitness Center.Write a memo to tell all the employees that:
1)How long will this project be last for?
2)Welcome the employees to provide suggestions.You should write about 100 words.To:Every Employees From:Brian Aponte Date:November 18,2005 Subject:Fitness Center The board of directors approved the idea for anew Fitness Center at its meeting yesterday.Work on the Fitness Center will begin right now and should be completed within 90 days.An employee representative from each division will be appointed to determine the type of equipment and programs that will be made available.We are happy to be able to provide a facility that will contribute to the physical fitness of all our employees.Your representative on the task force will contact you soon for your suggestions about activities and equipment.Brian Aponte Administration Office,Manager 注:这是一篇关于公司修建健身中心的备忘录。备忘录中说健身中心工作马上开始而且“completed within 90 days”。而且希望各部门代表与主办部门联系,征求关于活动和设备的意见

考研英语应用文格式之备忘录
在上篇文章中,我们已经向大家详细介绍了2010年英语(一)曾经考过的应用文——通知的写作格式。对此,从第一行的题目一直到最后一行的署名,诸位即将参加考研的同学们务必要牢牢记住其中的每个细节,因为“格式恰当”也是咱们考研应用文考查的一个重要评分标准。对于应用文的几个评分标准来说,它是最简单、最容易掌握的一个;但是对于同学们来说,鉴于它的琐碎性与细节性,它又是同学们最常因为马虎粗心而犯错的一个。古人讲:“一屋不扫,何以扫天下!”因此,作为一个未来的研究生,大家不要在这样的细节上出现失误。
此外,在今天的这篇文章中,我们继续给大家介绍下一种告示类应用文——备忘录,虽然在英语(一)和英语(二)中都还未曾考过,但是咱们的两个考研英语大纲却一直都明确规定应用文考查类型中包括备忘录。至于备忘录到底是什么,有什么样的写作思路,这些我们早在系列介绍考研英语应用文的写作思路的时候已经详细地讲过,大家可以去翻阅查看。本文中主要给大家介绍一下备忘录的写作格式。
Memo
To: All Employees
From: Berry Silver, President
Date: June 22nd, 2014
Subject: Entertainments or Gifts during Spring Festival
At around this time of year, many invitations are received from companies and clients to Spring Festival dinners.Gifts are also sometimes received.I am sure that such offers only result from a job being well done and it is certainly pleasing to know that the level of service provided by staff is appreciated.However, the acceptance of any offers, entertainment or gifts, can lead to either a real or perceived conflict of interest.To ensure that this does not arise, all such offers should be declined and gifts returned.I should appreciate your understanding and cooperation.首先,与通知一样,备忘录也须有题目,但是其中不同的是备忘录的题目非常简单,就是Memo,首字母M要大写,此外它居于答题空间的首行中间位置。
其次,从第二行开始接下来的四行位置则是备忘录比较个性特殊的格式了。
第一行是“To: ”,也就是此封备忘录的写作对象,而且鉴于备忘录是一种告示类文章,那么它的收件人往往是一群人,而不再是书信之中的一个人。
第二行是“From: ”,也就是此备忘录的写作者,在这里面,既可以只写人名,也可以在人名后面加上其职位等身份,但是两者之间要用逗号隔开。
第三行是“Date: ”,也就是写作日期。英文中日期的写法我们已在上篇文章的通知中详细介绍过,在此就不再多加赘述了。
第四行是“Subject: ”,也就是整封备忘录的内容概括,但是在这边大家需要注意的是小标题的内容一定要是短语形式,而不能是一个完整的句子。
再次,上面四行内容结束之后,我们还需在其下面空出两行方能书写正文内容。至于正文的写作格式,我们则采取缩进式,即段落之间不空行,但是每段开始前都要空格,而且是四个英文字符的空间。
