2019年考研英語(yǔ)（一）的小作文假設(shè)你為你們大學(xué)的“幫助農(nóng)村小學(xué)”項(xiàng)目工作，要求你給一位外國(guó)留學(xué)生志愿者寫一封回信，向其介紹該項(xiàng)目的情況。書信體的英語(yǔ)作文一般從稱呼開(kāi)始寫起，由于對(duì)方是一位素未謀面的留學(xué)生志愿者，所以稱呼宜莊重正式。我們假設(shè)她名叫Sara Smith，則稱呼可寫Dear Ms Sara Smith。稱呼要頂格寫，后面用逗號(hào)。

這封書信的正文宜寫三個(gè)段落。第一段表明寫這封信的目的——告知信息。由于這是一封回信，我們不妨先提一下對(duì)方曾來(lái)信咨詢“幫助鄉(xiāng)村小學(xué)”項(xiàng)目的情況，然后表明這封書信就是要告訴她關(guān)于該項(xiàng)目的信息。第二段向Sara Smith具體介紹這一項(xiàng)目的信息。至于介紹哪些信息，考生可以自由發(fā)揮，只要與這個(gè)項(xiàng)目有關(guān)就行。比如，我們可以從兩個(gè)方面介紹這個(gè)項(xiàng)目：首先介紹這個(gè)項(xiàng)目的目的——幫助中國(guó)西部農(nóng)村的孩子學(xué)習(xí);然后介紹這個(gè)項(xiàng)目的內(nèi)容 ——組織和培訓(xùn)志愿者在暑假期間到西部農(nóng)村小學(xué)任教。既然這位留學(xué)生志愿者來(lái)信咨詢這個(gè)項(xiàng)目，她可能有意要做這個(gè)項(xiàng)目的志愿者，所以我們可以歡迎她來(lái)做英語(yǔ)老師。第三段先告訴她如果想了解進(jìn)一步的信息，可以訪問(wèn)這個(gè)項(xiàng)目的網(wǎng)站，然后表明自己期待著她能加入志愿者的隊(duì)伍。郵件的最后是署名，寫在正文下方中間偏右的位置，上一行可寫Yours sincerely，下一行寫Li Ming，上下對(duì)齊。下面請(qǐng)看參考范文：

2019年考研英語(yǔ)（一）的大作文屬于哲理型漫畫作文，即漫畫反映的是一種人生哲理。人生哲理一般充滿正能量，對(duì)年輕人富有教育意義，如堅(jiān)韌、毅力、自信、樂(lè)觀、善良、勤奮、合作、團(tuán)結(jié)等。我們要寫好這種類型的漫畫作文，首先要仔細(xì)觀察漫畫，準(zhǔn)確理解漫畫的寓意。在本題的漫畫中，我們可以看到兩個(gè)登山者爬到了半山腰，其中一個(gè)癱坐在臺(tái)階上說(shuō)：“累了，爬不動(dòng)了?！倍耐檫f給他一瓶水，勸他休息一下再接著爬。結(jié)合漫畫下方的標(biāo)題“途中”，我們可以看出這幅漫畫的寓意是：毅力對(duì)于成功非常重要。

我們可以把這篇作文寫成三個(gè)段落。引言段描述這幅漫畫，由于這是一篇論說(shuō)文，描述漫畫是手段而不是目的，所以我們描述漫畫宜簡(jiǎn)筆勾勒，勿工筆細(xì)描，一般兩三句話足矣。主體段先指出這幅漫畫的寓意——毅力對(duì)于成功的重要性。然后論述為什么毅力對(duì)于成功非常重要。我們要論述一個(gè)抽象的道理，最好能舉出具體的例子，即所謂的虛題實(shí)寫。例子不拘一格，可舉名人或偉人的事跡做例子，也可舉凡人小事做例子，還可以引用研究結(jié)果、調(diào)查統(tǒng)計(jì)等，只要能證明這個(gè)道理都可入例。比如，本文要證明毅力對(duì)于成功的重要性，我們就可以先引用前人的研究結(jié)果做例證，指出成功者都是那些屢次失敗又屢次嘗試的人，而那些輕易放棄的人卻從來(lái)成不了大事。接著，我們可以以發(fā)明了電燈泡的美國(guó)發(fā)明家托馬斯·愛(ài)迪生為例：如果他第一次失敗就放棄了，也許就沒(méi)有這個(gè)奇妙的發(fā)明了。

本文可以用建議法結(jié)尾，即建議讀者踐行漫畫中所蘊(yùn)含的道理。我們可以先重述主題——做任何事情都會(huì)有挑戰(zhàn)，而毅力是戰(zhàn)勝挑戰(zhàn)的關(guān)鍵。接著建議讀者在想放棄的時(shí)候堅(jiān)持不懈，因?yàn)橹挥挟?dāng)你放棄，你才會(huì)失敗。下面請(qǐng)看參考范文：

The drawing above shows two men climbing a hill. One of the climbers got so tired that he collapsed on a step， ready to give up. His companion， however， is handing him a bottle of water and encouraging him to go on climbing.

Obviously， the picture is aimed at emphasizing the importance of perseverance， a character trait that separates achievers from the rest of the pack. As we know， life is rarely plain sailing. To succeed you have to persevere through daunting obstacles. Studies have shown that highly successful people are those who have failed many times but who have tried again and again and again. Those who quit easily， however， never amount to anything great. If Thomas Edison， the American inventor who invented the electric light bulb， had given up the first time he failed， this marvelous invention might not have been possible as early as 1879.

Like mountain-climbing， every worthwhile endeavor comes with challenges， some of them seemingly insurmountable. The key to overcoming the challenges is dogged perseverance. So press ahead next time you feel like quitting. You will never fail unless you give up. （187 words）

語(yǔ)言亮點(diǎn)借鑒：

1. The drawing above shows two men climbing a hill. 這幅畫顯示兩個(gè)男子在爬山。show sb doing sth顯示某人正在做某事。

2. One of the climbers got so tired that he collapsed on a step， ready to give up.一個(gè)登山者累得坐在臺(tái)階上，準(zhǔn)備放棄。collapse（因精疲力竭而）突然坐下。

3. Obviously， the picture is aimed at emphasizing the importance of perseverance， a character trait that separates achievers from the rest of the pack.顯然，這幅畫的目的是強(qiáng)調(diào)毅力的重要性，毅力是一種把成功者與其他人區(qū)別開(kāi)來(lái)的性格特點(diǎn)。separate區(qū)分，區(qū)別。achiever成功者。the rest of the pack其余的人。

4. As we know， life is rarely plain sailing.我們知道，人生很少一帆風(fēng)順。plain / smooth sailing一帆風(fēng)順。

5. To succeed you have to persevere through daunting obstacles.為了獲得成功，你必須堅(jiān)持不懈才能越過(guò)令人生畏的障礙。daunting令人生畏的。

6. Those who quit easily， however， never amount to anything great.而那些輕易放棄的人卻永遠(yuǎn)成不了大事。not amount to anything不會(huì)有出息。

7. Like mountain-climbing， every worthwhile endeavor comes with challenges， some of them seemingly insurmountable.就像爬山一樣，任何有意義的嘗試都會(huì)有挑戰(zhàn)，有些挑戰(zhàn)還似乎難以戰(zhàn)勝。endeavor（尤指新的或創(chuàng)造性的）努力，嘗試。come with有。seemingly看似。

8. The key to overcoming the challenges is dogged perseverance.戰(zhàn)勝挑戰(zhàn)的關(guān)鍵是頑強(qiáng)的毅力。dogged頑強(qiáng)的。

9. So press ahead next time you feel like quitting.所以下次當(dāng)你感覺(jué)想放棄時(shí)，堅(jiān)持下去。press ahead（不顧困難地）繼續(xù)干下去。next time下一次，用來(lái)引導(dǎo)一個(gè)時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句，相當(dāng)于一個(gè)連詞。
