从以上历年的作文考试题可以看出:
(
1
)作文的具体考试形式只有一种,
即提纲式作文,从未涉及情景或图表作文;
(
2
)作文的文体都是议论文,且最近
5
年的题目都是对比分析型的议论文;
(
3
)所给题目都与上大学、大学生、学习、工作等话题相关,且有变化关键词
表达来重复
话题的可能。
因此,在作
文题型方面要仍然以提纲式作文为重点,但
仍然不能排除
情景或
图表作文的极
例外的可能(后面的内容中会有相关讲解);在文体训练方面着重练习对比
分析型议论文的写
法;对与学生、大学、学习、工作等话题相关的题目要多写多练和融会
贯通。

■情境型作文
情境型作文,一般以书信形式出现。书信由(
1
)信头(即
写信人地址,在右上角,地址由
小写到大)、(
2
)日期(日期紧跟在信头下一行,写法有月日,年;或者日月年,日的数字直
接写基数词即可,免得不知序数词写法反而写错)、
(
3
)信内地址(收信人地址,在左上方顶
格写但
要低于写信日期至少一行,第一行要写上头衔或尊称
Mr,
M
rs
,
Dr.
等加上人名,下一行
p>
的地址也是由小写到大)、(
4
)称呼(低
于信内地址一行顶格写)、(
5
)正文(可以分几段,
最后一段通常写祝愿、
说再见、
提及以后的会面
,
作出承诺或提出要求)
、
(
6
)
结束敬语和
(
p>
7
)
签名七个部分构成。
< br>
需要指出的是:
<
/p>
写信人地址和收信人地址会因为
2
者关系
的亲疏而不同。
2
人若关系很熟则
2<
/p>
种地址都可
以省略;
2
< br>人关系很陌生则最好
2
种地址都要;
若为一般非正式信件则可以省掉收信人地址
(最
常见)。<
/p>
考生出于中文习惯,把日期写在落款位置是最常见的错误,需要
避免。
以上所讲的是缩进式的书信格式,考生在不记得排版格
式的情况下也可以把书信写成齐头
式。
即把所有组成部分和段落
都顶格写,
实际上使用电脑打印书信时大多采用这种格式。
这样
,
考生可以轻易避免在书信格式方面的错误。
温馨提示:以下范例都省去了信头、日期和收信人地址,但考生在试卷上作答时候至少要
写上信头和日期!
