　　第十三天：大小寫(xiě)作 得分多多---小作文要點(diǎn)

　　除了格式與語(yǔ)言問(wèn)題以外，文章是否包含題目中的所有要點(diǎn)也是小作文的重要評(píng)分標(biāo)準(zhǔn)之一。首先，字?jǐn)?shù)應(yīng)達(dá)到100詞左右；其次，小作文題目中提到的要點(diǎn)(一般為三點(diǎn))應(yīng)該在文中全部提及。所以，審題要仔細(xì)，不能遺漏問(wèn)題中的要點(diǎn)。根據(jù)這一要求，小作文一般寫(xiě)3-4段。仍然以2005年的小作文題為例說(shuō)明這一點(diǎn)。

　　Directions:

　　Two months ago you got a job as an editor for the magazine Designs & Fashions. But now you find that the work is not what you expected. You decide to quit. Write a letter to your boss, Mr. Wang, telling him your decision, stating your reason(s), and making an apology.

　　Write your letter with no less than 100 words. Write it neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2. Do not sign your own name at the end of the letter; use “Li Ming” instead. You do not need to write the address. (10 points)

　　題目中的指令是Write a letter to your boss, Mr. Wang, telling him your decision, stating your reason(s), and making an apology，很明顯作文應(yīng)包括三個(gè)要點(diǎn)：告訴老板自己的辭職決定，陳述辭職的原因并表示歉意。范文包含了上述三個(gè)要點(diǎn)：第一段告訴老板自己的辭職決定，第二段給出了辭職的三個(gè)原因，而末段表示了歉意。

　　Dear Mr. Wang,

　　I am writing to inform you about my decision to resign from my current position. There are a few factors involved that I find intolerable.

　　First of all, the salary has proven to be much lower than you originally promised, and I have a large family to support. In addition, the office is located in the downtown area, yet I live in the suburbs, so it is exhausting for me to spend over three hours commuting every day. Most importantly, I feel rather disappointed and left out on the job itself, as in the past two months I was never given any really important responsibility.

　　I sincerely hope that you approve of my resignation. I am sorry for any inconvenience caused.

　　Yours sincerely,

　　Li Ming

　　綜上所述，可以用3-4個(gè)段落對(duì)應(yīng)題目中的幾個(gè)要點(diǎn)，一般是一個(gè)段落寫(xiě)一個(gè)要點(diǎn)。在闡述要點(diǎn)時(shí)，各個(gè)段落分工如下：

　　第一段：交代寫(xiě)信的目的；

　　第二段：從兩三個(gè)方面談?wù)撔诺闹黧w內(nèi)容，各個(gè)方面之間以關(guān)聯(lián)詞相呼應(yīng)，給人層次分明的感覺(jué)，像范文第二段中的關(guān)聯(lián)詞first of all, in addition, most importantly就使得第二段充分而連貫；

　　第三段：闡述第三個(gè)要點(diǎn)，如果有的話(huà)；

　　最后一段：從交際的角度來(lái)完成此信，如獲得恩惠后表示感激、造成麻煩時(shí)表示歉意等。
