大学英语四级应用文写作指导（附加历年真题及范文）

【应用文题型（Applied Writing）】

应用文的范围很广，包括书信、便条、广告、简历以及通知等诸方面。英语考试中的应用文以书信为主、兼或有报告、演讲词、导游介绍之类的要求，这一点在大学英语四级考试中屡有所见。

【书 信】

英文书信一般包括六个部分：

“ 信头-----------------------写信人的地址和日期 ” 收信人内文地址--------收信人的姓名及地址

“ 称呼-----------------------对收信人的称谓语，写在内文地址以下两行 ” 正文-----------------------写信人的身份及写信目的 “ 结束客套语----------------信尾谦辞 ” 签名

称谓（Salutation）

这儿指写信人对收信人的称谓。从左边顶格写起，自成一行，比信内地址低两行。其开头词和专有名词的第一个字母还应大写。称谓后，英国人喜用逗号，而美国人则用冒号。“ ”Dear“ 的用法：

最常见的是用Dear +（头衔）姓或名，如：Dear Professor Chen, Dear Mr.Alan 或Dear Isabel, 也就是在Mr., Mrs, Miss, Ms, Prof., Dr.等后只用姓，不用名字。如果关系比较亲密，可用My Dear…。” 给某个机构或你不认识的人写信，则按如下称呼写： Dear Sir, Dear Sirs, Sirs, Gentlemen, Dear Madame, Ladies or Madame, To Whom It May Concern.“ 写给政府各部门首长，如参议员、法官、大使、市长等可用Hon.（Honorable 阁下的缩写），表示尊重。正文（Body）

正文是书信的主要部分。通常在低于称呼一行处写起，每段开头要向后缩进五到八个字母。正文从内容结构上一般包括：

” 写信人的身份及写信目的------------位于开头部分，一般是寒暄或点明写信的目的；要写得贴切、热情、恰如其分。

“ 写信人的想法，请求等细节--------位于中间部分，叙述一封信的主要内容，要求写得具体明了，直截了当

” 向收信人表示谢意、希望等---------位于结尾部分，通常写一些表示祝愿、问候、感谢等结束敬语或希望之类的话语。

下面是一些写信时的常用表达： 开头语常用表达：

“ 寒暄或关于”接到你的某月某日的信“ Excuse me of not writing you for such a long time.Your letter dated the 10th inst.（instant 本月）is at hand.I feel complimented by the kindness of your letter which arrived this morning.Words can't express my delight of receiving your letter dated Aug.27.” 点明目的，表示通知、消息。

I am writing to ask if you can do me a favor.I have the pleasure to tell you that our friend, Jim, will get married in the New Year's Day.I am very much delighted to inform that you will get a promotion soon.结尾语常用表达：

“ We send you our best wishes.” With best regards.“ Looking forward to hearing from you soon.” Love to all you.“ Please give my best regards to your family / parents.” All the luck in the world to you.结尾谦辞（Complementary Close）。

结尾谦辞指写信人对收信人的谦辞称，写在正文下第二、三行处，从信纸中间稍向右处或齐头左顶格写起，第一字母大写，末尾加逗号。结尾谦辞根据通信人之间关系的亲疏恰当选择。常见的有以下几种： “ 通常使用：

Sincerely,（Your Sincerely;Sincerely yours;Most sincerely）

Truly，（Yours truly;very truly yours）

” 给上级、长辈、领导或公务信件用：

Respectively yours，Faithfully yours, “ 一般同事或熟人之间用：

Yours ever，Your friend，Cordially yours, ” 写出亲属或关系非常亲密的是：

With love，Love，All my love，Forever yours

Yours affectionately，Your loving son / daughter

书信作文的语体问题

就书信作文而言，作文内容固然重要，但语体更是问题。英文书信大致可分为事务书信（Business Letters）和个人书信（Personal Letters）两种。前者是单位与单位或个人与单位之间来往的信件，语体比较正规（formal）；后者则是个人与个人之间的飞鸿，表达较为随便（Personal）。但有时，同一封信可以采用正式与非正式两种语体表达，这就要求考生具有明辨和变换语体的能力。会变换语体，就要掌握大量词汇和句子结构、套语，尤其是同义词的不同感情色彩以及委婉语气和祈使句的应用。一般说来，正式文多采用包含would, should, might 等情态动词的语句，而个人书信除对师长的客套外，大都可融进少量口语体的句子（如祈使句、感叹句等）。值得一提的是广义虚拟语气在书信中的应用（凡要表达客气委婉的语气或留有余地的主观愿望而使用的虚拟语气属广义用法）。广义虚拟语气涉及到若干固定句式，比如： 1 陈述看法

I believed/thought/guessed/supposed/…that+表述内容（用过去时代替现在时是客气委婉的表示。）2 提出劝告、建议

It would/could be fine to do … You might as well do … You should do… 提出请求、询问意向

I would（very much）like to V … Could you...Would you … 4 表明意向

I was wondering if … I wondered if …

以上句式在正式或比较正式的书信中是常见的，应学会使用。

【实例----2003年6月真题】

Directions: For this part, you are allowed thirty minutes to write An Eye-Witness Account of a Traffic Accident.You should write at least 120 words according to the outline given below in Chinese:

假设你在某日某时某地目击一起车祸，就此写一份见证书。见证书须包括以下几点： 1 车祸发生的时间及地点 2 你所见到的车祸情况 3你对车祸原因的分析 Model Composition

An Eye-witness Account of a Traffic Accident

Last Friday morning I was standing at the bus stop waiting for Bus No.375.Because several lines pass by the station and it was rush hour, many people had gathered there before next bus came, some off the pavement, others on the lawn.A bus pulled into the station at last.Before I recognized the number of the packed bus, people already thronged

forward and fought their way to the door.Suddenly I heard somebody shout “Help!Help!” It was from the crowd.All the passengers looked toward the point where the sound came from.A pregnant woman was lying on the road nearby the bus door, bleeding all over.I was frightened and dazed.An ambulance came and took the woman to hospital.Buses came and went, but I just stood there, lost in thought.Probably because time and tide wait for no man, people in modern society are always in a hurry, lest they should be left behind and even dismissed.There can never be peace of mind.Thus rises the number of traffic accident.If there were less pressure on people, there might be fewer accidents.【公众演讲稿】

下面我们看一下公众演讲。大体来说，公众演讲可分为四类：

“ 信息型演讲（informative speech）

” 劝说型演讲（persuasive speech）

“ 娱悦型演讲（entertaining speech）

” 激励型演讲（stimulating speech）

一般来说，演讲包括六个部分：

“ 问候语（Greetings）

” 提出话题（Presentation of the Topic）

“ 论述话题（Discussion of the Topic）

” 结束话题（Conclusion of the Topic）

“ 呼吁行动（Appeal to Action）

” 结尾语（Closing Remarks）

当然虽然一个演讲包括以上六部分，但未必是六段，在四级考试中，可以把问候语、提出话题合为一段，论述话题一段或两段，而把结束话题、呼吁行动以及结尾语融在一起为一段。

【实例----2005年1月真题】

Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a campaign speech in support of your election to the post of chairman of the student union.You should write at least 120 words following the outline given below in Chinese.1 你认为自己具备是什么条件（能力，性格，爱好）可以胜任学生会主席工作，2 如果当选你将会为本校同学做什么？ Model Composition

当今世界旅游事业蓬勃发展，旅游业已成为各国重要的经济部门。为了招揽游客，导游解说和旅游指南就显得十分必要，大学英语考试中有关旅游的题目也是很多。导游解说除了开头结尾的客套话，中间则是对景点的介绍，而旅游指南里面大部分也是对景点大介绍。导游解说词和旅游指南的语言既具有广告宣传文字的特点，也具有某些报导文字和游记文字的特色。其语言既比较规范，又具有大众化，辞令明快优美，富于表现力和说明力，向旅游者介绍某个地方的特色，提供游览的信息，帮助游人了解和欣赏要游览的地方，有时还告诉游客诸如交通、食宿、花费、时间表等出外旅游常见问题。

大家看下面的实例，体会一下导游解说词和旅游指南的写作特点：

【实例----2004年6月真题】

1、目前许多商品存在过度包装的现象 2.出现这一现象的原因

3.我对这一现象的看法和建议

【范文】

On Excessive Packaging

In recent years we can see quite a lot of products are excessively packaged.My newly bought shirt come swathed in tissue paper, placed in a cardboard box and then finished off in wrapping paper.Why do people have a liking for excessive packaging?

There are many reasons that contribute to this phenomenon.Firstly, producers are profit-driven and they can raise the prices of their products by delicate packaging so as to make much more profit.Secondly, consumers tend to think it more decent to purchase well-packaged products, especially when they want to buy gifts for their friends.The last but not the least, imperfect taws and regulations make it not possible to completely ban excessive packaging.In my opinion, besides the cost for buyers, excessive packaging also results in the waste of resources and environment pollution.To solve the problem, it's necessary to take the following measures.First, laws and regulations must be perfected to restrict excessive packaging.Second, we need to raise consumer's awareness that delicate packaging doesn't equal to high quality.Meanwhile, we need to advocate packaging recycling.[解析]

本文主题是比较贴近社会的热点话题，提示要求学生先指出现象，阐述原因，最后论述白己的观点。文章可以分为三段，第一段才指出目前市场上的商品存在过皮包装的现象。第二段具体说明出现这种现象的 原因。第三段作者提出了自己的观点和建议。

【翻译】

对过度包装

近年来我们可以看到相当多的产品包装过度。我新买的衬衫来裹着卫生纸,放在一个纸箱里,然后结束了在包装纸。为什么人们喜欢过度包装吗? 有许多原因导致这一现象。首先,生产者利益驱动和他们可以提高他们产品的价格由精致的包装,使更多的利润。其次,消费者往往认为它更体面的购买产品精准,尤其是当他们想买礼物给他们的朋友。最后但不是最少,鞭打和法规不完善使它不可能完全禁止过度包装。

在我看来,除了成本,过度包装也对买家导致的资源浪费和环境污染。为了解决这个问题,有必要采取以下措施。首先,必须完善法律法规来限制过度包装。第二,我们需要提高消费者的意识,精致的包装不等于高质量。与此同时,我们需要提倡包装回收。

Can money buy happiness? Various people have various answers.Some people think that money is the source of happiness.With money, one can buy whatever he enjoys.With money, one can do whatever he likes.So, in their minds, money can bring comfort, security, and so on.Money, as they think, is the source of happiness.But there are still a lot of others who think that money is the root of all evil.Money drives people to steal, to rob, and to break the law.A lot of people became criminals just because they were in search of money.And in the Western countries, there is nothing that can’t be bought by money.Many people lose their own lives when hunting it.I think that money is essential to life and we cannot do without money.But even though money is necessary to life, it can’t buy happiness.Happiness is not something that can be measured by money.It is a state of mind.One can have plenty of money, with which he can buy whatever he wants, and at the same time he is not happy because he is never satisfied or he is troubled by various kinds of problems.Therefore, although money is necessary for a happy life, it can’t buy happiness.1996年1月作文题目及范文

The two-day weekend has brought a lot of benefits to college students.It not only offers us more time to get rid of tiredness and have a good rest, but also gives us more chances to take up some hobbies, such as fishing, reading, or gardening.From these activities we can learn many things outside the classroom, which will add to our knowledge.Despite the convenience it brings us, the two-day weekend has also given rise to quite a few problems.The most serious one is that the weekdays are filled with more lesson, sometimes too many.Because our classes are limited to Monday through Friday, we have to take more lessons each day than in the past.This leaves us little time to catch our breath during the weekdays.In order to benefit most from the two-day weekend, I have decided to make a good plan for the two-day weekend.Of course I should take this chance to relax.But during

the weekend, I will still set aside enough time to study.By doing so ii can have a good time as well as make progress in my studies.1996年6月作文题目及范文

The famous saying “Practice makes perfect” is widely accepted today.It means if we practice unfamiliar things again and again, we’ll be able to perform it perfectly.The practice of learning English is a good example.We are not living in an English speaking country.So, in order to learn it well, we need extra practice, such as reading English books, going to English corners, or communicating with foreigners.Only sitting at the desk cannot lead to the mastery of English.As another example, if we want to be skilled in using the computer, we also need to practice using it.Some children become little experts in computer, just because they play with it everyday.On the contrary, if we just stick to books, we will still feel confused when using computers.Judging from the evidence offered, we might safely draw the conclusion that practice makes perfect.1998年1月大学英语四级作文题目及范文

In recent years, a lot of fake commodities have appeared in the market.These fake commodities have done great harm to the consumers and the society.Since the policy of reform was implemented, China’s economy has improved.A lot of people getting richer, and their living conditions are getting better.But still some of them are not satisfied.They dream of getting rich overnight and living a heavenly life, which, of course, is impossible to achieve by fair means.So they risk breaking the law to produce the market take commodities.Once these fake commodities enter the market, they will do immeasurable harm to the society.The direct victims are the consumers.As the quality of the fake commodities is always very poor, the consumers may suffer great losses.Certain fake commodities, such as food and medicine, will cause irreparable harm to the health and well-being of the consumers.Fake commodities also cut into the profits of the brand-name-owners.Since the fake ones are cheaper, people tend to be reluctant to buy the genuine ones.1999年1月作文题目及范文

[范文]Don’t Hesitate to Say “No”

In our daily life, there are many occasions on which we should not hesitate to refuse when asked for help.For one thing, when it is beyond our ability, we should give a direct reply “no”.For another, we the thing we are asked for is unreasonable or even illegal, we should say “no” without hesitation.However, it is not the case in our real life.Many people prefer to say “yes” when they should say “no”.Some are afraid to lose their face, since they think refusal means their inability.Some people are afraid to offend their acquaintances’ face, such as their friends, relatives and so on.In fact, doing so is quite harmful.If you agree to do the things beyond your ability, the result will only be worse.The other might as well have asked another person who can help.And if you agree to do the unreasonable or even the illegal favors, such as cheating in the exam, you are in fact not helping the other but hurting him.You yourself will get into trouble too.1999年6月作文题目及范文

[范文]Reading Selectively Or Extensively?

Some people think when we read we should read selectively.That is to say, we should select some books we are interested in and ignore the others.Reading selectively can help us concentrate our limited time and attention on those selected books.Others think we should read extensively.No matter what kind of book it is, we should look it over.We should read various kinds of books, whether we are interested in them or not.They maintain that reading extensively can help to enlarge our view and grasp the general knowledge in different fields.In my opinion, the two reading ways have their roles respectively in our reading.However, the disadvantages of each methods are easy to see.If we only read the books we select or prefer, the framework of our knowledge may not be complete.Our knowledge would be rather limited.And if we read without selection, we may not have so much time and energy to be specialized in one particular field.Therefore, the combination of the two methods is more reasonable.2000年1月作文题目及范文

Several years ago new tuition fee policy was put into practice and college students were asked to pay a certain sum of money.And now, all the students, no matter what subjects they are engaged in, must pay for tuition.There are many ways for a student to finance his college education.Most students ask their parents to pay the tuition fee and pay for their books, accommodation and other cost.A student can also apply for the scholarship.Most universities set up scholarship to offer money to the poor students who do well in entrance exams and reward those who do well in entrance exams and reward those who work well at university.A student can also apply for the low-interest loans.In addition to the above, taking part-time jobs is also a common way for a college student to get money to pay part of his tuition and fees.So far as I’m concerned, I’d prefer earning the scholarship.This means I must study hard and be a top student, which has always been my goal.After all, the task of a student is to study.And in addition to solving my financial problems, getting the scholarship can also prove my ability and is good for my future.2001年1月作文题目及范文

Nowadays, in an ever tighter job market, great importance has been attached to an interview by both the employer and the applicant.The interview, so to speak, has become indispensable for getting a satisfactory job.On the one hand, the interviewer can take advantage of the occasion to learn about the candidates, such as their work experiences, education and their personalities, so as to pick out the right person for the company.On the other hand, the interviewee can make use of the opportunity to get to know the job he is going to take up, the salary, the working conditions and many other things about the job he is interested in.Therefore, the job interview is very important to a job-hunter.But how can one succeed in it? Firstly of all, the interviewee must pay attention to his or her appearance.The first impression is always where we start.Get dressed properly and neatly.Secondly, good manners are equally important.Don’t be too proud, and neither too timid.Just be courteous.Thirdly, the interviewee must demonstrate his aptitude and skills for the job and his knowledge about eh job-related areas.Be confident.Last but not the least, the interviewee ought to be honest about his or her personal as well as academic background, for honesty is the best policy.To sum up, the job interview is indeed important, but there is no need to be nervous.As long as the interviewee has the ability for the job, with careful preparation and a fairly confident and honest performance, his or her success can be ensured.2002年1月作文题目及范文

Dear Mr.President，I’m very lucky to attend this world-famous university, but I’m afraid I’m not content with the canteen service on campus.Firstly, the quality of the dishes should be improved.Undoubtedly, there are a lot of delicious dishes, but all the year round, they are the same.More and more students are complaining about eating the same food each day.So I think the most urgent problem is variety.Secondly, the price is a bit too high.Many of us hope that the canteen can provide us with not only delicious but also cheaper food.Finally, the environment is so noisy that we can’t enjoy our meals in good mood.I suggest that there be some soft music to help us relax.These suggestions are not just of my own, but also of may other students.We hope our respectable president will pay attention to our suggestions.By the way, the canteen workers are very patient and always smiling.So I think

if our university offers them better conditions, they will offer us better service.Best wishes，Li Ming

[范文]It Pays to Be Honest

Although honesty is believed to be a virtue, there are still dishonest people in our society.For example, some businessmen sell fake product to their consumers;some students cheat in the exams.Dishonest people are short-sighted.Those who sell fake products may make money at first, but consumers won’t buy their products any more.As a result, they will lose their fortune or even be sent to prison.By contrast, honest people gain a lot.Those who always tell truth or keep to their promise not only let others trust them but gain respect from other people as well.Such persons are sure to have a lot of good friends.Because they are trustable and respectable, everyone is eager to make friends with them, Besides, it is easier for a person with a good record to get a good job.Generally speaking, every employer wants his employees to be honest.So we can say that anyone who is honest will be paid back later.In a word, honesty wins trust, respect and honor.So it is important that we should be honest.2003年6月作文题目及范文

My name is Liming.I am studying at college.A week ago I saw a traffic accident , which is still vivid in my mind.It was at about 9:00 on Saturday morning, June 15th, when I went out of the university to visit a friend of mine at another university.I was walking leisurely on the sidewalk when I heard a loud crash of two vehicles just at the T-junction about 10 meters away.Two taxis crashed together.It was a traffic accident.I went up and found that the two taxis were badly damaged.Both hoofs were out of shape.One door of a car was knocked off and lying on the road.One driver was blooding and another was shut in the taxi.Some people were trying to help the driver get out of the damaged car.One man was calling to the traffic policeman station.A lot of cars were jammed on the road.From the stopping track on the road, it is clear that the two taxis were driving too fast.But it is just one of the reasons.In my opinion, the taxi drivers are

eager to take more passengers and make a little more money.On the other hand, both drivers don’t show concern for one another.Both of them wanted to run in front of another.Therefore, the accident is inevitable.So far, we should let the drivers keep it in their mind that a little slower, a little safer.Taking care of other’s lives means taking care of your own life.2004年1月大学英语四级作文题目及范文

[参考作文]Should the University Campus Be Open to Tourists?

[参看范文一]

One can always find visitors taking pictures and enjoying the scenery in

university compus.During the May Day Holiday, National Day Holiday, summer and winter vacations, many University campuses become popular tourist sites.In my opinion, university campus should be open to tourists.In fact, there are many royal gardens and parks, all of them obviously better than the scenery in the Universities.Why do you think people prefer visiting here with their children? That is because it is a dream goal for many Chinese parents and young ambitious students.Besides this, as more tourists come to visit universities, these universities can widen their influence as well and they can also make some profit from the tourism.In a word, I think the university compus should be open to the tourists

[参看范文二]

In university compus, especially in some famous ones, such as Peking University and Qinghua University, tourists are always seen looking around everywhere.Although most of them visit with hope and repect, I think university compus should not be open to tourists.First, tourists' visit will disturb the normal teaching.They always get into teaching buildings, libraries and so on.They will make noise and throw rubbish everywhere.Second, some tourists trample grass to take photos, and sculpture on trees to leave words.These will affect the environment of the compus badly.The university is a holy place for study, not for tourism.So It should not be open.2006年6月作文及范文

The Spring Festival Evening Get-Together has been held in China for over two decades, which seems to have been an indispensable company during the traditional New Year’s Eve for a great number of people, who appear to be accustomed to enjoying the sights and sounds of a brilliant feast, while gathering with their beloved family.However, an increasing number of people have voiced different opinions towards it, as more perse life styles have emerged nowadays.Some prefer to go to a fancy restaurant to enjoy a gourmet meal;some intend to go on a vacation to an incredibly exotic destination for a novel and thorough relaxation;others may have even more post-modern notions, like go bunging, hiking, or cycling for entirely new different experiences, forgetting all about the Spring Festival.To me, the Evening Get-Together is supposed to be here to stay.It may not remain a must for all people, but it can bring us a strong sense of festivity and serve as an alternative among the variety of holiday activities.Besides, with such a gathering, family members will have a perfect opportunity to enjoy more fun and happiness, for nowadays most people are so engaged in their daily businesses that they can rarely find any extra time to stay with their family, which, if not properly adjusted, might add further to the already worsening situation of the values of Chinese families.2007年12月作文及范文

范文一

Nowadays, there usually exists a wide selection of electives for college students to choose from.However, students have quite different plans for their future so they always end up learning courses based on their own ideas.Some students may choose to learn a certain course in order to obtain an extra certificate for their job hunting after graduation.Because they assume that some more knowledge could ensure more chances of winning in finding a good job.Others may have their choice made just for fun.They tend to hold the idea that college life could be more colorful if they could widen their knowledge through elective courses.As far as I’m concerned, I’m inclined to choose electives based on both the value of the courses and the interest of my own.范文二

Nowadays many college students prefer to have electives in their spare time because the courses can offer a variety of skills and abundant knowledge apart from what they learn in the daily courses.There are many factors that may account for it, and the following are the most conspicuous aspects.To start with, many students want to get another degree besides their own, so that they can have more competence when they seek a job.Furthermore, as for me, I don’t care about degree or job, I just want to obtain some necessary skills to make my college life worthwhile.What I’m concerned most is how to own more skills that may be necessary for my future.Finally, some students want to learn anything that is different from what they are learning now.The science students, for example, want to know about Shakespeare while the art students want to tell how a vehicle works and how to deal with it when it breaks down.So, they can all get what they think is useful to their college life.On the whole, the phenomenon is one of the results of multi-demand of the employment market.There is still a long way for us to improve the elective itself, but as a student myself, I find it rewarding and interesting.范文三

What Electives To Choose

With the reform of Chinese higher education, more and more colleges and universities put emphasis on nurturing students’ abilities.As a result, elective courses are available not only for excellent academic performers but also for students about the average level.Certainly, students have different reasons to choose their own electives.For some, practical skills are the essence of college education, and therefore, courses on computer science, marketing, and finance are highly preferred.On the other hand, others may hold the idea of liberal education and electives concerning literature, history, and philosophy are the most welcome.Take me as an example: being a disciple of free education, I stand for the notion that university is not a place for survival skills, but a palace of knowledge and critical reasoning.Although my major is chemistry, the electives I attend most frequently are English literature, an Introduction to Classic Music, and Different Schools of Western Painting.They really widen my horizon.Free admission to museums

Free Admission to Museums(满分版)

Nowadays, an increasing number of museums are admission-free to visitors home and abroad.The hidden reason behind this is not hard to analyze as there’s a growing awareness for the authorities regarding the urgency of popularization of culture, knowledge and history with every average person in our society.Only with free access to this live ‘database’, can most people fully enjoy what museums could offer to them.However, free admission to museums might lead to some social problems as well.The most obvious problem is that it might give museums a very heavy economic burden which directly impedes the sustainable development of these organizations.As a result, our government has to work out other ways to collect funds from different

channels, which might be difficult to operate or control.On the other hand, free admission attracts too many visitors, some of which might not be well-purposed and do some conscious or unconscious damage to the valuable treasures which used to be well-preserved in the museums.As a university student, I am in favor of the free-admission conduct.Yet it is proposed that some measures should be taken to solve the potential problems caused by it.For example, museums can make some regulations to guide the behavior of visitors or set some ‘closed’ days for museums for regular maintenance.Only in
