Dear Editor,
I am going to take the college entrance examination soon. I have to work harder and harder to prepare for it so that I could enter a good college. However, it’s hard for me to understand what my teachers say in class. Though I tell myself again and again I should hold on, I have little confidence in myself. What should I do now?
Best wishes,
Li Hua

Answer 1

Dear Li Hua,
Thank you for your letter. As for the entrance exams, you have come too far and worked too hard to quit now. There are only a few months left until the exams so you can make a final push to get the best result you can. I have some tips for you and I hope they are helpful.
The first thing you should do is to make a good study plan. If you follow the plan and concentrate on what you’re doing, it helps you study effectively.
Besides, don’t forget to include at least three hours of exercise each week to keep your mind sharp.
What’s more, make the most out of class. Preview lessons before the class and it helps you follow the teachers in class and have a good knowledge of what is important but difficult. Do review what is done wrong and learn lessons from mistakes.
Above all, building up confidence is essential to success. Only when you believe in yourself, can you keep up your spirits and be successful.
Now, take some time to be with your family and enjoy yourself for Spring Festival, then get to work.
Best wishes,
Editor

解析试题分析：本文对考生的要求较高，要求考生首先读懂原文，再根据文字提示写作。原文是一位高三的学生学习上遇见困难在寻求帮助。回信的要点都隐含在信中，再读懂文章的基础上，要考生自己归纳出来，再一一进行解决，考生需要使用合适的连接词把这些要点连接成文，如to begin with首先；besides而且；what’s more等。也要注意运用适当的高级句型如定语从句，强调句等让文章不显得那么平淡，而有文采。在词汇的运用上也要注意，使用相对高级的词汇提升文章的档次。
【亮点说明】所给范文语言简洁，运用了一些词组：make the most out of充分利用， have a good knowledge of 很好了解，Above all最重要的是, building up增强，范文中的句式多变，运用不同的语法知识：The first thing you should do is to make a good study plan. 这句话用了定语从句和不定式，If you follow the plan and concentrate on what you’re doing, it helps you study effectively. 这句话用了宾语从句， Do review what is done wrong and learn lessons from mistakes.这句话用个强调句， Only when you believe in yourself, can you keep up your spirits and be successful. 这句话用了倒装句，还有文章还使用了Besides, What’s more,这样的关联词，使文章更加通顺。
