写作探究
电 子 邮 件
英文电子邮件和书信的写法大致相同,但略有差异。一般来说,英文电子邮件包括以下五个部分:
(1)标题栏
一般写在左上角,包括发件人姓名、邮箱地址,发件日期、收件人姓名、邮箱地址以及邮件主题。排列格式:
FROM:发件人姓名、邮箱地址;
DATE:发件日期;
TO:收件人姓名、邮箱地址;
SUBJECT:简明扼要地介绍邮件的内容。通常是单词、短语,偶尔用句子。
(2)称呼
位于正文的开头。如何称呼要视发件人与收件人的关系而定。若是同学、朋友,可以直呼其名;若是长辈或上级,要在姓氏前加上Mr、 Miss、 Mrs、 Dr、 Professor等表示称谓的词。
(3)正文
正文要简洁明了。简单问候之后,就要开门见山地说明写电子邮件的目的。这部分内容的写作相对自由,但对于电子邮件的回复,必须紧扣“回复”这一字眼,要“问有所答,疑有所解”。在高考中,要按照试题要求的内容来写,最重要的是表达要清楚、有条理,语言要准确、流畅。
(4)结尾客套话
结尾的客套话通常很简洁,如Yours、 Thanks等,一般写在左下角。
(5)签名
一般写在左下角,有时也写在右下角。

美篇导读
《芒果街上的小屋》是一本优美纯净的小说,一本“诗小说”。故事发生在一条叫芒果街的芝加哥小街上。居住在这条街上的女孩埃斯佩朗莎生来就有对弱者的同情心和对美的感知力;她用清澈的眼睛打量周围的世界;她用美丽稚嫩的语言讲述成长,讲述沧桑,讲述生命的美好与不易,讲述年轻的希望与失望。她梦想有一所自己的房子,梦想在写作中追寻自我,获得自由,获得帮助别人的能力。
美篇呈现
The House on Mango Street(Excerpt)
In English my name means hope. In Spanish it means too many letters. It means sadness,and it means waiting. It is like the number nine. A muddy color. It is the Mexican records my father plays on Sunday mornings when he is shaving,songs like sobbing.
It was my great-grandmother's name and now it is mine.She was a horse woman too,born like me in the Chinese year of horse—which is supposed to be bad luck if you're born female.
My great-grandmother,I would have liked to have known her,a wild horse of a woman,so wild she wouldn't marry. Until my great-grandfather threw a sack over her head and carried her off. Just like that,as if she were a fancy① chandelier.That's the way he did it.
And the story goes she never forgave him. She looked out the window her whole life,the way so many women sit their sadness on an elbow②. I wonder if she made the best with what she got or she was sorry because she couldn't be all the things she wanted to be. Esperanza. I have inherited③her name,but I don't want to inherit her place by the window.
At school they said that my name was funny as if the syllables④were made out of tin and hurt the roof of your mouth. But in Spanish my name is made out of a softer something,like silver,not quite as thick as sister's name—Magdalena—which is uglier than mine. Magdalena who at least can come home and become Nenny. But I am always Esperanza.
I would like to baptize⑤myself under a new name,a name more like the real me,the one nobody sees. Esperanza as Lasiandra or Maritza or Zeze the X.Yes, something like Zeze the X will do.
芒果街上的小屋(节选)
在英语里,我的名字的意思是希望。在西班牙语里,它意味着太多的字母。它意味着哀伤,意味着等待。它就像数字“九”。它是一种泥泞的色彩。它是每个星期天早晨,爸爸刮胡子时播放的墨西哥唱片,呜咽的歌。
它过去是我曾祖母的名字,现在是我的。她也是一个属马的女人,和我一样,出生于中国的马年——如果你生为女人,这会被认为是霉运。
要是我见过我的曾祖母该多好,她是像野马一样的女人,野得不想嫁人。直到我的曾祖父用麻袋套住她的头把她扛走。就那样扛着,好像她是一盏华贵的枝形吊灯。那就是他的办法。
后来,她从没有原谅他。她用一生向窗外凝望,像许多女人那样凝望,胳膊肘支起忧伤。我想知道她是否随遇而安,是否会为做不成她想做的人而伤怀。埃斯佩朗莎。我继承了她的名字,可我不想继承她在窗边的位置。
在学校里,他们说我的名字很滑稽,音节好像是铁皮做的,会碰痛上颚。可是在西班牙语里,我的名字是更柔和的东西做的,像银子,没有妹妹的名字那么浑厚。妹妹叫玛格达蕾娜,这名字没我的美。玛格达蕾娜回到家里可以叫蕾妮。可我总是埃斯佩朗莎。
我想给自己起一个新名字,一个和真实的自我更像的名字,一个没有人见过的真实的我。埃斯佩朗莎,就像拉山德拉或者玛丽察或者某泽泽。是的,我会起一个就像某泽泽的名字。
