文体：应用文(书信)

头脑风暴
审清题目
【点评范文】
1. 内容：咨询的信息比较全面，涵盖了课程及课程安排、班容量及学习方式、食宿情况和课后活动四个方面，内容详实。
2. 语言：作者在咨询信息时，使用了衔接词first, then, next和last，使得文章富有条理性和逻辑性；此外，作者还得体地运用了礼貌语句咨询信息，如Could you please tell me ... , I wonder ..., I’ d like to know ...等句型的使用。若想进一步提升该写作的质量，可以将第二段的后两句“You know I want to improve my English. At the same time, I also want to experience life in the UK.”修改为“You know I want to experience life in the UK as well as improve my English.”，这样会简化一些。

Dear Li Lan,
How are you doing I know that you are going to visit Beijing. Welcome to Beijing.
Let me tell you something about Beijing. Next week it will be very hot. In the daytime, the highest temperature will be over 33℃. During your stay in Beijing, you’d better take the subway.
Taking the subway is the best way to travel around Beijing. There are some places of interest that are worth visiting. The most popular one is the Great Wall.
When you stay in Beijing, try to be well-mannered. You’d better not speak loudly in public places and never throw litter on the ground.
I hope you will have a great time in Beijing!
Best wishes!
