河北邯郸市第一中学 韩建敏
申请信主要用于就某一岗位、奖学金、求学、签证等问题提出申请要求。申请信是高考中常考的交际性应用文体之一。写申请信时应注意三个问题:第一,语气要诚挚友好,千万不要表现出强求的意思;第二,对于申请的内容和原因一定要写得非常清楚;第三,尽管不能表现出强求的意思,但是期望得到的心情一定要得体地表达出来。写信时既不要过分奉承对方,也不要自吹自擂。如不要说I always studied well,and all my teachers loved me,而应用自己的相关履历、学习成绩单和获奖情况等“硬件”来说明。

2019年全国乙卷的书面表达要求考生写一封申请信,仍然属于书信应用文。试题要求考生给伦敦一家将举办中国画展览的美术馆写信,申请当一名志愿者。本篇书面表达体现了中国传统文化的传播与中外文化交流。同时,考题还融入了美育知识,引导考生关注和提高审美情趣。在备考时,考生要集中看一些与日常生活和传统文化有关的话题,如文学与艺术、风土人情、社交礼仪、饮食、体育运动、语言学习等,按照话题复习,效果会更佳。
写作时,考生要从写信目的、个人优势和能做的事情这三个方面展开。考生在写作时要做到层次分明,应着重掌握个人优势的常用表达 , 如 I'm good at、I have the ability to、I'm experienced in等。从语言风格来讲,短文应该是正式文体,应运用得体的语气和礼貌用语或结构等。
