Dear sir or madam,(To whom it may concern,)
I am writing this letter for the purpose of making some suggestions for improving the service of our university library.(意图)Although our library functions effectively and efficiently in providing academic materials and enriching our campus life, its service goes far from being desired.(背景+客套)From my perspective, the following measures need to be taken as soon as possible.(承上启下的TS)
Firstly, why not arrange an inquiry desk at the circulation hall? With the help of a professional librarian, students can go through the procedures more efficiently.In addition, students should have access to the latest issues of foreign magazines.It’s inadequate to provide merely back issues to the students at the periodical room.Lastly, you’d better maintain strict order at the reading room.I frequently found myself disturbed by certain students chatting and smoking there.I sincerely hope that you will take my advice into consideration,and I look forward to your reply at your earliest convenience.(I shall feel obliged by a reply at your earliest convenience.)
2006年考研小作文 请求+询问信
Write your letter in no less than 100 words.Write it neatly on answer sheet 2
You want to contribute to Project Hope by offering financial aid to a child in a remote area.Write a letter to the department concerned, asking them to help find a candidate.You should specify what kind of child you want to help and how you will carry out your plan.Don't sign your own name....“Li Ming” instead.Don't write the address.【题目解析】
提示中提到作者给相关部门写信,自己想要为边远地区的儿童进行援助,为希望工程做贡献,请求帮助联系到合适的儿童。题目虽然没有给出明确的三点提纲,但整个内容的三段式写法不言而喻。此信为典型的请求信模式(提出请求+背景---请求具体方面或原因---操作流程或做法),结合到本文中,第一段向对方机构提出请求或申请,明确表达目的意图;第二段则specify(具体说明)希望援助什么样的儿童,分特点进行描述;第三段则说明如何实施计划,帮助贫困儿童。
特别注意到新东方考研课堂上讲过的两篇文章,1995年考题的主题为呼吁大家参与希望工程,援助失学儿童;2001年的考题也是关于爱心,在范文中我们也曾提到过举例论证段,可以用帮助失学儿童作为助人为乐的典型事例。由此看来,小作文的主题是考生非常熟悉的,只不过用信函的方式创作。事务信函的关键是能 “specify”,也就是说,考场上要合理联想,举一反三讲细节,提供合情合理的原因或细节。
【推荐范文及翻译】
To whom it may concern,I wish to contribute to Project Hope by offering financial aid to a child in a remote area.Having conceived such a plan for a long period,(背景)I am writing this letter to request your help to recommend a candidate.(意图)

【文章评析】
范文为齐头式格式,由于向政府部门提出申请,语气较为正式,称谓部分采用了比较正式的“To whom it may concern,”。之后第一段开门见山说意图,避免了一些浪费字数的套话。创作中采用了考研试题中较为重视的 “contribute”、“conceive”、“request”和 “recommend”四个动词。
第二段按议论文模式设定了段首句,并采用了经典的 “take„into consideration”词组。其后分层次介绍自己的想法,如儿童需来自贵州,因为自己也是贵州人,想帮助家乡的人。另外希望儿童正上小学,因为自己的擅长的数学知识或许可以用得上,可以为儿童辅导数学。此段中由于自己提出了要求,所以语言需要委婉和礼貌,使用了 “I wonder if it is convenient for you”以及 “it will be better if”等表达。
第三段同样布局清晰,在简短的段首句后,分别用 “first”和 “more importantly”来界定层次。计划也非常明确,就是按月汇款和暑假亲自授课。汇款使用动词 “remit”,避免了千篇一律的 “send”;词组 “in person”和“be beneficial to”都用得比较到位。
信函的结尾就是常规的致谢和期待收到回信,句型简单好记,只要把我们课堂上的技巧发挥基本到位即可。特别注意事务信函不太讲究起承转合的复杂表达,“首先/其次”使用普通的顺序词就可以了。

First of all, it is absolutely necessary for me to hunt an appointment which can enable me to earn a higher salary to cope with the growing high cost of living.In addition, the office is located in the downtown area, yet I live in the suburbs, so it is exhausting for me to spend over three hours commuting every day.Most importantly, recent circumstances are incompatible with my personal and professional beliefs and styles.I have thoroughly enjoyed time at this company and regret having to abandon my work.Once again, I am sorry for any inconvenience caused.(可以用我们的经典5句中的几句结尾)
