　　51. 写请假条[参考样文]

　　Dear Mr. Wang,

　　I beg to apply for one week's leave of absence from the 10th to the 16th instant, both days inclusive, so as to go home to see my mother, who is seriously ill in hospital.

　　To support my application, I herewith submit the text of a short message to that effect received from my father.

　　I shall very much appreciate it if you could approve my request. As far as the work to be held up due to my absence is concerned, I will try hard to compensate for it as soon as I get back.

　　Thank you for your attention.

　　Yours sincerely

　　Li Ming

　　Part B

　　52. [参考样文]

　　As is depicted in the first picture, a farmer was working in the fields. All of a sudden he saw a hare running in the distance, only to dash itself against a big stump. The hare was seriously injured and could not move any more. The man came over and, to his delight, picked it up and went home happily. The second picture shows that the farmer was sitting near the stump, waiting for another hare to appear. But nothing similar happened at all.

　　The set of pictures tells us that those who dream of reaping without sowing will achieve nothing. Ironically, there are a lot of people in our life who are unwilling to make painstaking efforts but greedy for success. They tend to trust to chance and luck. My previous experiences in study and work have proven that in order to succeed, first and foremost, one should be both hardworking and persevering. We should strive for possible success. There is no reason for us to look to any accidental gain.

　　In my opinion, at no time and on no account should we trust to chance or luck. So my conclusion is that success results from hard work. (199 words)

　　注： in the distance在远处。“only to + 动词”意为“结果却…”，表示与主观愿望相反的客观结果。stump 树桩。reaping without sowing 不劳而获。trust to... 依靠(运气等)。persevering 有毅力的。look to... 依赖或指望某人提供某事物或做某事。industry n. 勤奋。

　　小结

　　Part A为应用文中的便笺(Note)。Part B为提纲漫画作文，与近年考试的命题形式基本一致;这种命题形式不仅要求考生描绘情境，而且要求考生说明内涵并结合实际生活经历发表个人的见解。考生应从参考作文中归纳出短文框架、段落结构和常用句型，以达到举一反三、触类旁通的目的。要通过背诵和改写，达到活用的目的。短文写作解题时间Part A一般为15分钟左右，而Part B一般为30分钟左右。
