Part A
【题目类型】
2009年小作文再次考查了事务信函中的建议信,近似于2007年考过的建议信,在考查了几年信函后,信函的类型开始重复,这是一件好事,说明信函主要类型已经在试题中出现过一轮,考生今后的复习更容易把握住规律,无论今后考道歉信还是感谢信,咨询信还是投诉信,真题的示范指导性会很强。与2007年小作文不同之处在于两点,首先是建议信的内容:2007年是建议大学图书馆改进服务,2009年主题为建议如何进一步控制白色污染;其次是2009年的提纲更加丰富,还需要写出现状和观点看法,这就需要在本年度的试卷上有更多的议论。
【审题构思】
本题的命题紧扣时事,2008年中国政府发布了“限塑令”,对塑料袋的使用给予了限制,成为年度中国环保方面最大的一个事件。在12月四级考试的写作中刚刚考过,没想到又出现在考研的题目中。题目指示中给出的信息明显多于往年,尤其是开始的现状描述,描述了关于塑料袋禁止并不太成功的情况。由于限制好了文章的主要思路,自由发挥的空间仅限于观点和建议部分。
文章的整个格局类似于一篇提纲式议论文,用现状描述/观点表述/三点建议的模式展开即可。 第一段需要描述现状,把提示中的两句话展开成英文表达,同时需要提到中国实行的“限塑令”,特别要写出白色污染这个表达。第二段展开观点,无非是深入强调塑料袋污染环境的严重性。第三段提建议,可以把政府法制建设、环保意识教育以及报纸媒介发挥宣传作用写进去,由于是给报社编辑写信,自然引申出三条建议。
【推荐范文】
Dear Editor,
I’m writing for the purpose of expressing my views on further prohibiting the use of plastic bags. China has officially enacted the law of plastic bag restriction, but it is observed in vain in several places, thus resulting in the continuing of white pollution。
Having the largest population in the world, China is exposed to the most serious plastic pollution. With the quickening pace of life, various disposable products are closely related to our regular life, including unrecyclable lunch boxes and plastic shopping bags. As it is difficult for them to decompose, people find themselves surrounded by an expanding ocean of white rubbish。
As a result, it is advisable to solve the problems by three means. Above all, importance should be attached to reinforcing the implementation of the law. In addition, people in those places should gradually enhance their environmental awareness. There is no denying that your newspaper should play an important role in preaching the necessity of limiting the plastic bags。
