1、精品资料BEC中级写作指导.BEC中级写作指导BEC中级写作指导BEC中级写作指导：备忘录的写法注意事项：1. 仔细阅读作文要求，判断该题是要求你写备忘录还是便条？因为这关系到作文行文中语言表达的正式程度。2. 根据题目要求核对所写作文是否包括了该写的三个部分。核对作文第一稿的长度，必要时可作修改。3. 写完后，校对作文中的语法、词汇及文体是否正确、恰当。写给个人的备忘录：范例：你是一家IT公司的人力资源部经理。你打算请Cooway公司 为你安排一次为期两天由10人参加的团队组建培训。 给你的助理写一个字数为4050的备忘录： 告诉她与培训项目主办者取得联系。 说明项目的参加人员和持续时间。
2、安排两个可以利用的周末提示：1） 按照英语备忘录的谋篇习惯，一般直接进入主题，不需要寒暄和问候等客套。2） 看清角色要求，把握好文体。作为经理，给助手写备忘录，行文问题不能太正式，宜直呼其名，而不必套用Mr.或Mrs.等称呼。通用，结尾处也无须客套，署名也只需要写名，不需要写姓。JimCould you please contact Cooway to organize a team-building event for sales staff? There would be ten participants and the course should last for two days. I
3、 suggest the weekend of 24/25 November or, if that is not possible, the following weekend.Thank, Alan写给集体（全体员工）的备忘录：范例：你是一家国际大公司的人力资源部经理。你刚刚任命Sally Jolie女士为公司总部的销售经理。给总部的全体员工写一个字数为4050的备忘录： 宣布对Sally Jolie女士的任命。 说明她开始工作的具体时间。要求总部员工准备欢迎她。提示：一般不用信头称呼的形式，也不采用在结尾处署上写信人的名字的方式，而是在备忘录的开头处写明收信人To_，在结尾处写明具体的写
4、信人From_以及主题：Re：_ 或Subject：_。To: Head Office staffFrom: Tom BeckI have the pleasure of announcing that Ms Sally Jolie has been appointed as the new Sales Manager at Head Office. Ms Jolie is due to join us on Monday 15th. Please give her a friendly welcome when she starts work.Thank you.首先一点，我们必须牢记，归根
5、结底，BEC作文考察的还是考生英语表达能力。所以学生并不需要担心自己缺乏这方面的实际经验是否会影响考场发挥。(顺便提一句，BEC高级对商务知识的要求大大提高，因此考生要在语言功底上苦下功夫。比如说，写商务报告的固定格式和用于必须牢记在心。)与此同时，试题结合商务实战的特点，要求文章必须包含特定信息点，或者是通过提供信息源，以及考题中的标注，规定考生写作的具体范围和内容。所以审题是关键，所有已知条件都必须充分利用，换言之，如果遗漏已知条件，就会因信息表达不完整而导致失分。以下是对我的一名学员习文进行点评。PART ONEYou have been informed that next Wedne
6、sday your companys computer system will be closed down so that improvements can be made.Write an email to all staff in your department: saying what time on Wednesday the system will be closed down suggesting how staff should prepare for this saying how the system will be better after the improvement

I want to suggesting that you should save all your important documents. The computer system will be faster becau
8、se we will use a newer SAP system. The new system is according to ISO900 and we will benefit from that.作文解析：BEC作文解答时，审题非常重要。题目中给出的要求就好比是解代数题中已知条件，都要用到。小作文处理的时候，大家不妨可以把每一个已知条件扩写成一句句句子，同时兼顾句子之间的连接。通常学生犯的错误是：1. 漏掉题中给出的已知条件。2. 给出的已知条件没有表达清楚，用词过于口语化，没有条理，暴露出语言功底薄弱。3. 切忌过于花哨的发挥，多说多错。这篇学生的作品是比较典型的案例。作者有一定的
9、英语表达能力和工作经验，但文章中所暴露出来的不足也是明显的。写作不能从细处下笔，而是先要搭建框架。以这篇习文为例，作者在具体语言的表达的雕琢上可圈可点，比如说第一个句子中based on引导的过去分词做后置定语，但是显而忘记了这篇文章的主要目的，那就是通知同事公司电脑系统要升级，但update这个词始终没有在文章中出现，因此读下来以后，可能同事还不是非常清楚，为什么computer system will be closed down, 尽管后面提到了improvement，总让人觉得有些如鲠在咽，言之不尽;因此，思路不清晰是这篇习文最大的问题。此外，本文还有以下一些问题：1. 有些用词过于口
10、语化，比如说，文章开头, I want to tell you, 文中you should save这样的用语;2. 建议Linux, 将SAP, ISO900等唬人术语统统除去，诚然BEC涉及到基本的商务知识，但是真正考核的还是语言功底，语用能力;商务知识好比是盖浇饭里面的小炒而已。3.里面还有一个明显的语法错误，I want to suggesting.，当然阅卷者不会刻意去搜寻语法错误，而是综合考量语法得分，但由于小作文篇幅较短，那么这个错误就显得非常明显。范文：Please be informed that our computer system will be closed next
11、 Wednesday at 12 oclock for system upgrade. The closure will last for at least two hours. Make sure that you have saved all your documents before that time. The whole system will run on a new server, much faster than the current one.PART TWOYou work for PJT Ltd, a manufacturing company. You need mor
12、e staff in your department and your line manager has asked you to write a report explaining why.Look at the information below, on which you have already made some handwritten notes.Then, using all your handwritten notes, write your report.Write 120-140 words.学生作文：The purpose of this report is to exp
13、lain why we need more staff in our department.We compare the number of staff in our department between 2001 and 2003, it only increased five staff. But the average number of ordered units grow up from 200000 to 400000 between 2001 and 2003.Our sales department has announced a big new order from an i
14、nternational company recently. It will bring us much more workload. And the annual holiday increased to 5 weeks per year. That means that we have more workload and less working days.If we had more staff the order should be on time. We should save our companys reputation. And the workflow will be imp
15、roved.作文解析： BEC中级的大作文题型一般以写报告、书信为主，因此，这些必考问题的具体格式必须掌握。英文商务报告的格式有五个部分组成，其中包括报告的Subject, Introduction (This report aims/sets out to)，Findings (it was found that)， Conclusions(It was decided/agreed/felt that)， Recommendations (It is suggested that.) 括号中是每段开头固定的表达方式，考生不宜自己去创造。同样写信也有格式化的表达方式，再此恕不展开。 和第一部
16、分一样，大作文的写作审题是第一步，所有给出的已知条件必须用足。本文中：1.考生的习文字数恰当。但没有把报告应有的四个部分写完整，这将导致大量失分。在以上的习文中，考生表现出了不错的语言驾驭能力。2.在审题上还有一些欠缺，比如 Another reason for more staff is that we will have fewer delays. 在题目中给出的已知条件中，有一份客户的投诉信件，应当作为佐证被引用，否则order should be on time无从谈起。3.除了没有按照报告的固定格式外，考生语言太随意。比如说，our sales department has anno
17、unced a big new order，没有出处，而根据文章中给出的已知条件，这是公司Newsletter所通告的，那么根据报告的要求，应该指出信息来源。4.中国学生还普遍特别敏感的就是企业的信誉，因此经常会看到学生动辄就是喊口号的语言，比如说文中We should save our companys reputation. 这样空洞无物的话应该避免。5.还有就是细节处理，句子和段落之间连接忽略了。比如说，It will bring us much more workload. And the annual holiday increased to 5 weeks per year. 以及
18、最后一句话And the workflow will be improved.其中的and 这个词用在这里显随意了些，可以考虑用Meanwhile 有“祸不单行”的意思。后面的And 应该删除。That means that we have more workload 这里两个that离的太近，可以考虑把后面一个去掉，同时时态应该是we will have。范文：Report on: More staff in our departmentDate: 27.03.2004IntroductionThis report aims to explain why our department nee
19、ds more staff.FindingsStatistics show that there exists a big gap between the number of staff in our department and staff workload. While the number of ordered units grew up from only 200000 to 400000 in 2 years, the number of staff grew only by 5 people. According to the Staff Newsletter dated Febr
20、uary 2004, we have won a big new order from an international company. That will bring us more work. At the same time, annual holiday has been increased to 5 weeks per year, meaning there wont be enough staff for all the work. Our customer service department recently received a complaint from one of
21、our clients about a tremendous delay in our delivery.ConclusionThere are many reasons which explain the need of more staff. It is especially important for reducing the number of delays in delivery and to optimize the workflow.RecommendationsMore staff does not only mean more costs, it also means imp
22、roved customer satisfaction.推荐阅读：比方说写人的时候，我们常常为了立体全面的介绍一个人而大费周章连续使用两个，三个甚至是四个句子来介绍。这样一来不仅笔墨费尽，而且还往往吃力不讨好。试比较一下两组不同的写法：1. William Shakespeare is British. He was considered to be one of the greatest writers in England. He was famous for his plays.2. William Shakespeare, a British, who was considered t
23、o be one of the greatest writers in England, was famous for his plays.通过对比大家会发现两点：一、第二种写法的质量明显更高，它满足了我们在写作中对长句的需求。二、这两组句子在内容上没有任何区别，区别的仅仅是形式。但是同时大家也会思考：这只是一个例子，是否具有普遍性或者普遍意义？答案是肯定的。首先，这个句子的普遍性在于这个句子的本身的作用。它本身的形式可以放在任何一篇写人记事的文章开头，也可以放在任何一篇议论文中引入例子的时候用于介绍例子当中的主要人物的背景。在新概念英语三册中就可以找到不少的这样的句子的范本，比如：【Less
24、on17, NCEIII】Verrazano, an Italian about whom little is known, sailed into New York Harbor in 1524 and named it Angouleme.【Lesson24, NCEIII】 the heroine, a dear old lady, who had always been so kind to everybody, had, in her youth, poisoned every one of her five husbands.试比较：1Verrazano was an Italia
25、n. Little is known about him. He sailed into New York Harbor in 1524 and named it Angouleme.2The heroine was a dear old lady. She had always been so kind to everybody. She had, in her youth, poisoned every one of her five husbands.经过以上的分析之后，相信剩下的问题就只剩下一个：面对这样的句子我们应该如何去操作呢？操作的部分分两步：长句都是由短句合并而来，所以我们首先
26、需要对简单的短句进行分析，然后再选择合适的语法手段将之合并。通过分析不难发现，这三个短句所讨论的都是同一主体。这时候就可以使用各种可以做后置修饰或补充说明的语法手段将三个短句有机的结合起来。这些语法手段中包括了：分词作后置定语，不定式做后置定语，同位语等等。所以根据以上例句进行简单总结，并将之抽象化，我们得出一种介绍人物时可以使用的一种不错的长句句型模板：主语 + 【同位语 + 定语从句】 + 谓语 + （其他：宾语/表语/状语等） 其中： 主语：人物名字 同位语：名词或名词性的短语，表示人物的国籍、性别、职业、特长等信息 定语从句：详细阐述一个人每一方面的特征 剩余主句部分：该人物跟本文主题
27、最相关的一个特征。该用法最终甚至还可以从介绍人物这样一个范围推广到介绍任何一个具体的事物，比如09年6月份的大学英语四级考试题目：该考题要求考生讨论的是大学校园的recreational activities （课外活动），必须包含以下内容：1、多种多样 2、有益 也可能有危害性 3、作为大学生的看法不管具体内容如何最开始我们都需要介绍主题：recreational activities，这时也可以使用和介绍人物同样的模板：1.Recreational activities are things that we do to occupy our spare time. Recreational
28、 activities include various different forms. Recreational activities are considered to be both beneficial and vain.2.Recreational activities, things that we do to occupy our spare time, which include various different forms, are considered to be both beneficial and vain.跟之前几组例子一样，短句的堆砌显得冗长，而运用了模板以后的例句会更加的紧凑，丰满，句子内部成分长短结合，错落有致。以上所举的例子仅仅是长句写作的一个非常细节的方面。希望广大的学习者也可以动起手来，我们从简单的句子开始着手，给我们的文章里加上一个漂亮长句，让我们的写作变得有“特长”。
