Dear Peter,
How are you doing?
I’m writing to tell you that my uncle Li Ming is going to your city for a conference, and I’ve asked him to bring you the Chinese painting you’ve asked for before.
Also, I’d like you to do me a favor. Would you please meet my uncle at the airport and take him to his hotel since this is the first visit to the U.S.? Thank you in advance!
His flight number is CA985, and it will arrive at 11:30 am. August 6. My uncle is tall and he is wearing glasses. And he will be in blue jacket.
Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
写信是中学生最熟悉的事，这种形式的写作贴近学生生活，使他们有话可说。写作时应注意下面几点：
（1）注意人称，应该用第一人称的形式给笔友Peter写信。
（2）注意时态的正确使用：信中对将来事情（如叔叔开会、航班抵达等）的描述与写信人的请求应用一般将来时，叔叔李明的情况介绍用一般现在时。
（3）要点全面，层次清楚，语言简练。
（4）注意恰当使用连接词，使各个要点间逻辑连贯，行文通顺。
（5）适当使用一些高级句型和词汇以提高作文档次。
【考点定位】考场学生的语言运用能力。
