[分析]

這是一個書信體作文，題目僅僅設置一個情境，沒有主題句。也就是說，這篇文章實際上就是談論如何維護友誼。考生可以根據自己的見解列舉兩三點，自己認為很重要并且能夠用語言表達的。交朋友涉及很多方面，考生集中闡述其中兩三點即可。

同時，還要特別注意這篇文章是書信體，要考慮到書信的特點，要考慮到開頭結尾的固定格式。首先告訴收信人自己寫信的目的，正文之后要有必要的寒暄祝愿，以及正確的落款。

關于落款，如果設置的情境告訴考生以什么身份寫信，一定要落實。如果沒有明確，則寫上XXX即可，千萬不要寫考生自己的姓名，以免留下作弊之嫌。

這種作文一般不需要寫日期。如果非要寫，也要寫在右上角，而不要照搬漢語習慣，畫蛇添足。

On Friendship

Dear Nina，

Im now writing to you in response to your letter about friendship.As to this topic，you are required to take the next two fundamental factors into account.

Firstly，to handle friendship one is supposed to respect his friend from beginning to end.It is always the case that people who have been close friends for years would not be courteous to each other.Eventually there will be mockery and bantering between close friends.Friendship can be easily destroyed in this way.If close friends can respect each other all the time，this kind of thing will never happen.

Simultaneously，one is supposed to notice the good sides of his pal.One should realize that there is no pure gold and that there is no perfect person in the world.It is natural for any of your friends to have his or her own faults，even if he or she is a person with high morals.In making friends，one should avoid his friends shortcomings and focus on his friends good points.In this way，friendship willlast longer.

Of course friendship involves many parts，but the two above are central and essential.With the great eagerness and good skills，you will be popular anywhere.And I do hope so.

All the best wishes!

Yours sincerely，

Smith

Dear Xiao Li，

Im now writing to you mainly to congratulate you on your success in your studies.I have been informed that you won a 1000-yuan scholarship recently for your good grades.Firstly，I am so excited at the news that I havent slept well for several nights.Secondly，as an age-old friend of yours，I do take pride in your achievements， which result from investment in books to a great extent. Finally，I would like to share your happiness with you.

In addition to the congratulations above，please allow me to talk about the 300yuan you borrowed from me last year.I have been poor in my studies recently，so much so that I need to buy books for improvement.To make it worse，I am now crisis-stricken in finance.I have problems in filling my stomach with food，let alone pastime and recreation.If I have recovered someday and I can support you，I will not think twice to give you a hand when needed.All in all，mail the money as soon as you can.

All the best!

Sincerely yours，

這是一篇給出主題句的書信體作文。考生必須嚴格按照兩個主題句的要求展開，不可互相包含。考生最容易犯的錯誤是在第一段的時候就提到300元，現在該歸還了。在第二段的時候，又說對方得到1000元。其實這兩筆錢之間的聯系非常清楚，無需贅述。本文巧妙之處在于第一段絲毫沒有提及還錢，但包含于字里行間。很多地方可以從兩個方面理解，一語雙關。

首句開門見山明確信的主旨，很多考生在這里出錯，他們先要寒暄一番。如：Hello，how are you?Do you have heavy workload?Take care.這些均不符合英文書信特點。英文書信的首句一般是：Im now writing to you...范文該句中的mainly說明，祝賀是主要目的，友誼第一，而催款是次要的。第二句使用了被動語態，因為消息的渠道無關緊要。加上 recently表明還錢的可能性。good grades采用了壓頭韻的修辭格。Firstly一句說自己聽到對方好消息的興奮反應，既說明二人關系密切，同時暗示300元錢有著落了。 Secondly一句中do強調寫信人的反應，緊扣祝賀。investment in books表明對方成績的取得也許得益于寫信人借的錢，同時也呼應下文中寫信人要買書。to great extent避免了判斷的片面，因為成績優秀取決于多方面。本段最后一句share your happiness with you的潛臺詞是share your scholarship with you。

第二段首句：In addition to the congratulations above是承上啟下的過渡，保證兩段之間的連貫。please allow me to...是地道的英文句型，避免了直來直去的尷尬。接下來列舉了寫信人急需錢的原因，理由充足。然后又談到日后如需要還會鼎力相助，既說清問題，又不傷感情，不傷面子。段尾句mail the money as soon as you can總結全段。
