Dear Mr. Smith,
I’m Li Hua from China, writing to ask about my stay with your family.
First, I’d like to express my thanks for your kindness of having me. To better prepare for my life in Britain, I’d like to know if I’ll have a room for myself and if there is a computer I can use. I plan to have lunch at school, and it would be great if I could join you for breakfast and supper. Finally, could you tell me how far your place is from the school? Is it within walking distance or do I need to take a bus?
I’m so excited about my visit to the UK. I’m looking forward to seeing you soon.
Yours,
Li Hua

点评:半开放性作文给出了一个话题,并有部分的文字提示。给考生自由发挥的余地较大。对于考生的综合能力要求较高,要求考生有很强的谋篇布局的能力和组织要点的能力。在完成开放性作文时,首先要选择自己熟悉的短语或者句型,在你的能力范围之内,选择句式时要赋予变化,因为这样你才可以更好的驾驭。同时也要选择合适的连接词,把各个要点组织成一个完整的整体,如besides, further, last but not least等。在发表个人观点的时候,可以使用谚语来提升整个文章的档次和文采,也能增加得高分的可能性。
