【答案】Dear Steven,
I would like to invite you to the annual Coming –of –age Ceremony of our school. As you know, it’s very important for us because from that moment on we are no longer children but adults, which means we should have a sense of duty for our society. Therefore, we will treasure the moment forever.
As scheduled, the ceremony, which is to take place in the school auditorium, will start at 9:00am on March 12. And it will last for two hours. And we will make an oath together, show our thanks to our parents, and put on wonderful performances, singing and dancing during the ceremony.
All the students in Senior 3, accompanied with their parents and their teachers will be present.
I am looking forward with great pleasure to seeing you. We do hope you can come.
Yours,
Li Hua
【解析】这是一篇电子邮件,文章内容已经列出,在写作文时应注意以下几点:
1.通篇应用一般现在时。
2.要点应齐全,但不可对要点进行简单罗列,要用适当的连词使全文流畅,衔接自然。
3.注意语气。写作难点在第四条上,要写出成人礼的意义,要符合现实并且一定要通过简单的例子来支撑,否则会显得说服力不够,内容不够丰满。这部分可以采取简单句与复合句结合的办法。
【范文亮点】:
采用非限定性定语从句(it’s very important for us because from that moment on we are no longer children but adults, which means we should have a sense of duty for our society;the ceremony, which is to take place in the school auditorium )等高级句式。
采用as you know, therefore,and等连词,使文章连贯顺畅。
结尾语气自然,符合信件结尾要求。

An Extension of the Human Brain
Other people can help us compensate for our mental and emotional deficiencies (欠缺),much as a wooden leg can compensate for a physical deficiency. To be exact, other people can extend our intelligence and help us understand and adjust our emotions. When another person helps us in such ways, he or she is participating in what I’ve called a "social prosthetic (义肢的)system." Such systems do not need to operate face-to-face, and it’s clear to me that the Internet is expanding the range of my own social prosthetic systems. It’s already a big bank of many minds. Even in its current state, the Internet has extended my memory and judgment.
Regarding memory: Once I look up something on the Internet, I don’t need to keep all the details for future use—I know where to find that information again and can quickly and easily do so. More generally, the Internet functions as if it were my memory. This function of the Internet is particularly striking when I’m writing; I’m no longer comfortable writing if I’m not connected to the Internet. It’s become natural to check facts as I write, taking a minute or two to dip into PubMed, Wikipedia, or other websites.
Regarding judgment: The Internet has made me smarter in matters small and large. For example, when I’m writing a textbook, it has become second nature to check a dozen definitions of a key term, which helps me dig into the core and understand its meaning. But more than that, I now regularly compare my views with those of many others. If I have a "new idea," I now quickly look to see whether somebody else has already thought of it, or something similar—and I then compare what I think with what others have thought. This certainly makes my own views clearer. Moreover, I can find out whether my reactions to an event are reasonable enough by reading about those of others on the Internet.
These effects of the Internet have become even more striking since I’ve begun using a smartphone. I now regularly pull out my phone to check a fact, watch a video, read weibo. Such activities fill the spaces that used to be dead time (such as waiting for somebody to arrive for a lunch meeting).
But that’s the upside (好处). The downside is that in those dead periods I often would let my thoughts flow and sometimes would have an unexpected insight or idea. Those opportunities are now fewer and farther between.
