Answer

Dear David,

I’m writing to invite you to the lecture on Chinese calligraphy which is the art of writing Chinese characters and especially refers to the rules of writing with a brush.

The lecture will be given by Shen Peng, a famous calligrapher, in the lecture hall of the Art Building on May 15th this Sunday. As far as I know, you like the traditional culture of China, so you will enjoy it.

The lecture will last from 8 a.m to 11 a.m, mainly consisting of three parts: one and a half hours’ listening to the lecture, half an hour’s discussion and one hour for observing the calligrapher improvising on the spot.

I will be very glad if you come. Looking forward to your early reply.

Yours,

Li Hua

【解析】本题考查书信类作文。首先要认真审题，假定你是李华，你校外教David对中国传统文化很感兴趣。学校邀请著名书法家沈鹏到校举行书法讲座。请给David发一封电子邮件，邀请他来参加并介绍讲座的有关事宜。1)讲座时间：5月15日（星期日）上午8:00—11:00；2)讲座地点：艺术楼演讲大厅；3)活动安排：听讲座，讨论及提问，观摩名家即兴创作等。

其次要确定时态，表示将要发生的事情，所以这篇文章要使用一般将来时。然后要确定文章的结构，文章开头邀请外教来参加讲座，接着介绍讲座的有关事宜，文章最后期待着对方早日给自己回信。在写作过程中，上下文意思要连贯，符合逻辑关系，一定要契合题目所给出的信息，不要出现偏题问题。尽量使用自己熟悉的单词句式，同时也要注意使用高级词汇和高级句型使文章显得更有文采。正确使用写信的格式，词数控制在一百左右。

【亮点说明】这篇短文使用了一些高级句型。例如：I’m writing to invite you to the lecture on Chinese calligraphy which is the art of writing Chinese characters and especially refers to the rules of writing with a brush.这里含有一个非限制性定语从句。I will be very glad if you come. 这里含有一个 条件状语从句。
