Here are a few tips that may help you. 　　First, arrive five to ten minutes earlier than the time you were invited. Being on time shows respect, but arriving too early may catch the host unprepared. 　　As for gifts, fruit, flowers or a box of tea are always welcome. Avoid clocks and umbrellas, because they suggest unlucky meanings in Chinese. A small gift from New Zealand would also be a nice surprise. 　　At the table, wait until the elders pick up their chopsticks first, and never point at anyone with yours. If you are offered more food, it is polite to try a little, even if you are already full. 　　Enjoy your visit and write to me if you have more questions. 　　Yours, 　　Li Hua 【亮点句式】 ① Here are a few tips that may help you.（倒装 + 定语从句，自然引出建议） ② Being on time shows respect, but arriving too early may catch the host unprepared.（动名词作主语 + 对比，一句说清“为什么”） ③ As for gifts, …（话题转换的标志表达，层次清晰） ④ …because they suggest unlucky meanings in Chinese.（点出文化原因，避免“只给结论”） 八、范文赏析 【参考范文】 Dear Mr. Smith, 　　I hope this email finds you well. Our school will hold a Chinese Culture Week next week, and we would be honoured if you could join us. 　　The event will take place in the school hall from Monday to Friday, starting at 4 p.m. each day. On Monday, students will wear hanfu and introduce the history behind it. On Wednesday, there will be a calligraphy workshop where you can try writing with a brush. On Friday, we will make zongzi together and talk about why Qu Yuan is still remembered today. 　　What makes this week special is that everything is prepared by students ourselves, so you will see not only our traditions but also how young people keep them alive. 　　I do hope you can come. If you need any help on the day, please let me know. 　　Yours, 　　Li Hua 【学生习作】 Dear Mr. Smith, 　　Our school will have a Chinese Culture Week. I want to invite you to come. 　　It is next week. It is in the school hall. There are many activities. We will wear hanfu. We will write calligraphy. We will make zongzi. They are very interesting. 　　Chinese culture is very old. It has a long history. I think you will like it. 　　I hope you can come. 　　Yours, 　　Li Hua 【习作点评】 优点：书信格式规范，邀请意图明确，时间地点与活动内容齐全，结尾有期待，完成了基本交际任务。 问题一：活动介绍只有“名称”，没有“意义”。写“We will wear hanfu”只是罗列，加上“and learn why it was worn in the Tang Dynasty”才叫“介绍文化”。 问题二：句子结构高度重复。全文 12 句中有 9 句是“We will… / It is…”，应至少使用一次定语从句、一次非谓语和一次强调句，例如“What makes this week special is…”。 问题三：词汇贫乏。“interesting / very old / long history”反复出现，可换成 fascinating、of great significance、date back to、pass down 等。 问题四：语气偏“通知”而非“邀请”。缺少 We would be honoured if…、I do hope… 这类礼节性表达，对老师的邀请应更正式、更诚恳。 【评分标准】（满分15分，按高考应用文评分细则） 档次 分数 评分描述 第五档 13—15分 覆盖全部要点，应用了较多语法结构和词汇，句式有变化，衔接自然，语法和拼写错误极少，完全达到交际目的。 第四档 10—12分 覆盖全部要点，语法结构和词汇能满足任务要求，衔接基本连贯，有少量错误但不影响理解。 第三档 7—9分 基本覆盖要点，语法结构单调，词汇有限，有一些错误，部分内容表达不清。 第二档 4—6分 遗漏较多要点，语法结构单调、词汇项目有限，错误较多，影响理解。 第一档 1—3分 只能写出个别单词，内容太少，无法传达信息。 【写作指导：本单元写作的三个得分点】 得分点一：活动要“有文化”。同一个活动，写“make zongzi”只有 6 分，写“make zongzi and talk about why Qu Yuan is still remembered today”就有 12 分——因为后者交代了传统与历史的关系，正是本单元的主题。 得分点二：邀请要“有礼节”。开头的 We would be honoured if…、结尾的 I do hope you can come和 If you need any help, please let me know，三句话就把诚意写足了。 得分点三：本单元词块要用够。date back to、be made up of、pass down from generation to generation、play an important role in、be proud of、cultural exchange 至少出现 5 个，再配一句 It is…that… 强调句点题，得分自然上一个档次。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 必修二 Unit 4　History and Traditions 单元写作作业 一、单元写作任务 假定你是李华，你校将于下周举办“中国文化周”（Chinese Culture Week）。请你给外教Mr. Smith写一封电子邮件，邀请他参加，内容包括： 1. 活动的时间与地点； 2. 活动的主要内容（至少三项，体现历史与传统）； 3. 表达希望他参加的愿望。 注意：1. 词数100左右；2. 可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯；3. 邮件开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 Dear Mr. Smith, 　　____________________________________________________________________ 　　____________________________________________________________________ 　　Yours, 　　Li Hua 二、审题建模（动笔前先想清楚这五件事） 项目 写作要点 体裁 邀请信（电子邮件）：称呼—正文—结束语—签名，属“邀请 + 介绍”类应用文。 人称 以第一人称（I / we）为主，指称对方用 you。 时态 介绍活动安排用一般将来时；说明历史背景、传统内涵用一般现在时。 结构 三段式。Para 1：问候 + 邀请 + 时间地点；Para 2：活动内容（三项，各配一句说明）；Para 3：期待 + 表示愿意提供帮助。 要点 “活动内容”要具体到可感知的形式（汉服体验、书法工作坊、端午包粽子），并点出它背后的历史或传统，避免只列名称。 语气 热情、尊重、得体。多用 We would be honoured if…、I'm sure you will find…interesting。 三、话题词块梳理 Ⅰ. 话题词汇（根据提示补全单词或词义） 话题词汇 1. kingdom n. ____________ 2. ____________ n. 王冠；王位 3. monarch n. ____________ 4. ____________ n. 城堡 5. currency n. ____________ 6. ____________ n. 防御；保卫 7. legal adj. ____________ 8. ____________ n. 风俗；习惯 9. tradition n. ____________ 10. ____________ n. 祖先；祖宗 11. descendant n. ____________ 12. ____________ n. 帝国 13. unite vi.&vt. ____________ 14. ____________ vt. 征服；占领 15. invade vt. ____________ 16. ____________ adj. 古代的；古老的 17. historic adj. ____________ 18. ____________ n. 时代；年代 19. dynasty n. ____________ 20. ____________ n. 一代人 21. identity n. ____________ 22. ____________ n. 遗产 23. ceremony n. ____________ 24. ____________ vt. 象征；代表 Ⅱ. 话题词块（根据汉语补全短语，或根据短语写出汉语） 话题词块 1. be made up of ____________ 2. ____________ 把……和……联合起来 3. break away from ____________ 4. ____________ 属于 5. date back to ____________ 6. ____________ 代代相传 7. be famous for ____________ 8. ____________ 在……中起重要作用 9. keep up the tradition ____________ 10. ____________ 除……之外（还） 11. cultural background ____________ 12. ____________ 对……有浓厚兴趣 13. be closely related to ____________ 14. ____________ 追溯到同一个源头 15. traditional customs ____________ 16. ____________ 民族文化 17. a sense of belonging ____________ 18. ____________ 庆祝节日 19. in memory of ____________ 20. ____________ 代表；象征 21. be proud of ____________ 22. ____________ 体验传统文化 23. bridge the gap between ____________ 24. ____________ 尊重差异 25. historical sites ____________ 26. ____________ 悠久的历史 27. be open to ____________ 28. ____________ 增进理解 29. the origin of ____________ 30. ____________ 文化交流 Ⅲ. 词块升级（把左边的“基础表达”换成右边更高级的说法） 基础表达 升级表达 1.

Here are a few tips that may help you. 　　First, arrive five to ten minutes earlier than the time you were invited. Being on time shows respect, but arriving too early may catch the host unprepared. 　　As for gifts, fruit, flowers or a box of tea are always welcome. Avoid clocks and umbrellas, because they suggest unlucky meanings in Chinese. A small gift from New Zealand would also be a nice surprise. 　　At the table, wait until the elders pick up their chopsticks first, and never point at anyone with yours. If you are offered more food, it is polite to try a little, even if you are already full. 　　Enjoy your visit and write to me if you have more questions. 　　Yours, 　　Li Hua 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
