Part 2 写作衔接
写作一 应用文 (告知信·回信阐述关于出国留学的观点)
假定你是李华,你的美国笔友Jackson最近在考虑是否要出国留学,他来信询问你的意见。请你就此用英语给他写一封电子邮件,阐述你的观点,并给出理由。
Dear Jackson,
I’m more than delighted to share my opinion, which I hope will be of some help to you. Frankly, I can’t make that decision for you, but the pros and cons are as follows.
To begin with, when exposed to a new culture and different people, we can obtain a deeper insight into the world. Moreover, the experience will be invaluable to character building, which makes us more independent, diligent and enterprising. However, one cannot deny the fact that there are also some disadvantages of studying overseas. It may be the first time that you have been abroad. As a result, you will not know how to adapt to new surroundings quickly. Besides, high expense is also a big problem.
In summary, every coin has two sides. Whatever you decide to do, I will side with you.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
