Dear friend,
Hi! My name is Jack. I am a high school student in the UK. I’m 17, an active and easy-going boy. I like ball games and surfing the Internet very much. School here starts at 9 a.m. and ends at about 3:30 p.m.. Our class is small, only 29 students or so. We have to move to different classrooms for different classes. Besides the main subjects, we can choose other subjects like Woodwork and German. Right now, I’m busy preparing myself for the A-level exam.
Please write and tell me about yourself and your school life if you are willing to be my pen friend.
Best wishes,
Jack

Answer 1

Dear Jack,
Hi, I am Li Hua from China. I am very glad to be your pen friend. I study in Xiaoxiang High School. This year I’m 17, too. As a shy and quiet girl, I love reading and listening to music, especially classical music. In our school, class begins at 8 a.m. and ends at 5 p.m. Compared with yours, our classes are very big, generally up to 50 students each. Besides, we usually have different classes in the same classroom. At school, we study as many as 13 subjects, and I am crazy about English. By the way, I am engaged in an English speech contest. Could you please give me some advice?
Hope to hear from you soon!
Best wishes,
Li Hua

解析试题分析：考察半开放性作文的写作。本文要求考生给对方回信，介绍自己的个人信息，考生可以从自己的实际情况，就使用自身的具体信息作为模板进行写作，介绍学校生活的时候，就用自己学校的具体信息，如作息时间、班级大小、学习课程等。写身边的事情，写熟悉的事情。要求考生在保证内容要点全部概括的基础上可以充分发挥自己的想象，进而用自己的语言来表达某种观点或看法，增添了写作的灵活性，同时能较好地考查考生的想象能力和英语语言表达能力。
考点：考察半开放性作文的写作
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。
