Mary always makes her classes lively and interesting. We all like her.
She’s friendly and she gets on well with other teachers in our school. Mary is also kind. She does well in English, and she often helps us learn English after class. She is also interested in English songs. She has already won some prizes in English singing competitions.
I think Mary has all the qualities to be one of the best teachers. I hope you can agree with me.

名师点评
本文运用“三步四要素法”来写这封推荐信。第一段:首先说出被推荐人的名字,第二、三段:简单介绍并点明推荐此人的原因。第四段:再次强调被推荐人是最佳人选。文章结构清晰、层次分明、行文连贯、表达准确。文中多种句式的交替使用,使文章增加了可读性;短语recommend...as...及make+ 宾语+宾补等的运用,为文章增色不少。另外,I think, I hope 等句式的运用使文章浑然一体,过渡自然,这些都显示了作者深厚的语言表达功底。
