笔者纵观近五年的全国高考英语试题河南卷,英语写作部分全部为应用文体,分别是感谢信、道歉信、申请信和通知,现分别举例逐一介绍,希望对各位英语学习者有所帮助。
一、感谢信
假设你是李华,梁教授去年六月推荐你去悉尼大学深造,现在你已经被悉尼大学化学学院录取,请写封信向梁教授表示感谢。
Dear Professor Liang,
I am writing to extend my gratitude to you because with your help I am now a student of Chemistry Department of Sydney University.
Last June, when I applied to become a graduate student of Sydney University, you really gave me a lot of valuable help. You not only wrote a recommendation for me to Professor Wells who works in the Sydney University but also gave me careful and patient instructions on how to fill the application forms and write the application letters.
It is your unreserved help that enables me to obtain this splendid opportunity of further education. For the following two years I will study hard to reciprocate(回報)your sincere help and expectations with excellent grades.
Yours truly,
Zhang Ying

二、道歉信
假设你是李华,你承诺要参加你朋友Sarah的生日宴会,但是今天早上你的弟弟突然生病,被送往医院,因此你给买了一个小礼物送给Sarah,表示你的歉意。
Dear Sarah,
I am terribly sorry to tell you that I am unable to attend your birthday party next Thursday evening. That is owing to(因为) the fact that (同位语从句)my younger brother suddenly fell ill and was taken to a hospital this morning. I have to go there immediately and take care of him. As told by the doctor in charge, it will take around five days for him to recover and I have asked my boss for a leave.
I really regret that I cannot go to celebrate your birthday personally and would miss the perfect chance of enjoying myself with all our old friends. I have chosen a small gift for you and will send it to you tomorrow to show my best wishes. Besides, please give my regards to our friends when you meet them at the party.
Sincerely
Li Hua
