【佳作赏析1】

Dear Jim,

I'm very delighted to know you are interested in traditional Chinese festivals.

Among the various festivals in China,the Mid-Autumn Festival is my favorite,①On this significant day,we can see a very bright and round moon,②③

Best wishes.I am looking forward to your reply.

Yours,

Li Hua

亮点分析:本篇习作结构清晰,语言清新自然,长短句交替使用,结构严谨,精彩纷呈,充分显示出作者扎实的语言功底。另外,文章中定语从句、让步状语从句和多个高级词汇与短语,如significant、utmost、appreciate、golden season等的使用使得全文一气呵成,都为全文成为一篇优秀的习作奠定了坚实的基础。

①which引导的定语从句对提升句子档次,丰富内容起到促进作用。

②这是一个非限制性定语从句,which指代前面的a very bright and round moon。

③no matter how...引导让步状语从句,从句中的do our utmost to do意为“竭尽我们全力做某事”,此处反映出中秋节在国人心目中的重要性。

④Personally引出作者的观点,过渡自然。该句结构复杂,why引导的是一个定语从句,而is后又跟有一个由that引导的表语从句。

⑤该句是作者表述喜欢中秋节的一个原因,即“秋天代表着收获,代表着成长”,有特殊的意义。

【佳作赏析2】

Dear Jim,

I'm very delighted to know you are interested in traditional Chinese festivals.

When it comes to the Spring Festival,I can list out countless reasons for my preference for it.Yours,Li Hua

亮点分析:整篇文章中,作者对春节准备和除夕的描写十分细致,让人身临其境,感同身受。从结构上来说,全文脉络清晰,层次有序,大量的句式、丰富的词汇短语、多变的结构,作者都使用得娴熟老道。特别是末段,作者谈喜爱春节的原因,那种漫不经心,那种轻松自如,实则是扎实语言功底的充分体现。总之,这是一篇出色的习作。

①句型 “It is widely acknowledged that...”表明中国历史悠久是世人普遍认可的。

②该句说明了作者最喜欢的是中国的春节,deepest最高级的运用加强了语气。

③该句含一个with复合结构,新年与临近构成逻辑上的主动关系。

④作者此处用一个感叹句直抒胸臆,发出感慨,直白地表达出对春节的喜爱。

●参考范文

Dear Jim,

I'm very delighted to know you are interested in traditional Chinese festivals.

The Chong Yang Festival,which falls on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month,is my favorite.

I had never thought about doing anything for the elderly until I learnt about the festival at school.Our teacher asked us to do a nice thing for our grandparents.For the first time in my life,I washed my grandma's feet.I'll never forget the sweet smile she wore and the happiness I felt.

The most important reason I like this festival is that it serves as a reminder that I should do something to show my appreciation of my grandparents'love.

Yours,

Li Hua
