距离最后的考试只有近两个月的时间，最后的冲刺序幕正式拉开。英语复习到这个阶段，最重要的就是作文。要想在最后的考试成绩中脱颖而出，现阶段就必须要把精力放在分值占在30分的写作上。

　　考研英语中大作文的要求是内容切题、表达清楚、文字连贯、句式多变和语言规范。小作文考察点在信息点的覆盖、语言的准确性、文章组织的连贯性上。

　　其中小作文占10分，分为求职信、祝贺信、道歉信、询问信、推荐信、感谢信、邀请信、辞职信等等二十多种应用文。每个类别都有相对固定的语言模式，都有固定词语要求。

　　感谢信是为了答谢对方的邀请、问候、关心、帮助和支持而写的公关礼仪书信。感谢信的写作主要分以下三个部分。首先开头要明确的对对方提供的帮助或赠送的礼品表示谢意。主体部分则需列举对方提供的帮助，说明该帮助所起的作用，或表达对所受礼品的喜爱以及以后如何使用及收藏等。结尾部分需再次表达诚挚的谢意并问候对方。

　　写作“三步曲”：

　　表达感谢之情及原因→提及曾受过什么帮助或者说明喜爱礼品的原因→再次表达诚挚的谢意。

　　注意：

　　表达感谢时要情真意切，不能过于夸张;结尾处最好表达希望回报对方的愿望，更显真诚。
