新东方黄培辰:2014考研英语二大作文真题点评
一、什么是自由写作？
自由写作遵循以下一些原则
1）从写作时间上讲，自由写作一般持续十至二十分钟，和信件考查的时间基本相同。
2）其题目限定较为宽泛，给予考生一定的自由度，考生可以有一定的发挥余地，将想到的 内容表达出来，不会造成无话可说。
3） 如果大家还是不太明确自由写作的含义，可以看一下今年信件考试的题目要求，都有一 句话：You should include the details you think necessary. 这句题目要求里面，最大的学问 就在那个necessary上，考官等于跟我们说：“我给了你一个范围，你写吧！只要写得切 题完成任务我就给分！”
二、自由写作对于考生的优劣性对比
1) 自由写作的优点是：考生看到题目之后都会比较自如，会觉得这个题目似曾相识，不会无话可说；可以缓解考生的紧张心理，稳定心态慢慢写；可以诱导考生写出内容，这样基础好一些的考生充分展示其写作才能、让基础薄弱的考生也能依据题目有所发挥。
2) 当然这么出题也有其“阴险”的一面，那就是会诱使考生越写越多、越写越快。写得多则错误增加、写得快则控制不住自己的思想，走题的可能性大。同时有意忽略一些格式上的要求，考生不审题，容易看漏一些题目要点，造成内容丢分。
3) 英语一和英语二的信件作文出题，今年用的就是这个风格。
英语一：Write a letter about 100 words to the president of your University suggesting how to improve the students’ physical condition. You should include the details you think necessary.
英语二：Suppose you are going to study abroad and share an apartment with John, a local student. Write him an E-mail to 1) Tell him about your living habits, and 2) ask for advice about living there.
三、考研英语一信件作文解析
1）考题看似是建议信，但是限制建议范围为improve students’ physical condition，这样可以 防止考生用自己背过的一个建议信默写，同时用include details you think necessary扩大 了写作内容范围。比较“阴险”的是，以前You are Li Ming之类的都消失了，如果你不写 落款，立刻就是扣分的理由。今年算计诸位的都是细节！
2） 考生可以从以下几个方面破题：1）可以从校方有完善机制、制定计划；2）可以建议校 方组织娱乐活动、让大家放松身心；促进健康、3）还可以从提醒大家注意作息，不要 睡得太晚；以上这三个角度，只要找上两个和改善健康有关的，都能顺利写出这次建议 信。只不过大家在写的时候需要有一个侧重点，不要什么都写，最后什么都提了一遍， 什么都没说明白。
3） 参考范文：
Dear Mr. President,
I am writing in the purpose of providing my advice in order to promote the students’ physical health at this college.
First, it is necessary that the school management provide a kind of effective mechanism. In this framework, the departments concerned are supposed to make a concrete plan which can better help the students improve their physical condition. For example, the plan is expected to include some sports activities such as jogging, playing basketball and swimming. By taking part in these activities, students can relieve their academic pressure and become more vigorous.
Thank you for your kind attention to this communication.
Sincerely Yours

4） 类似的表达还包括，想必大家不会很陌生吧，大作文的作息和娱乐就是为了对付这种考 法的。如1）never stay up late until the midnight/burn the midnight oil；2) live a normal life；3）At weekend, students can climb a hill or take many friends on an excursion. 4） give people a lot of fun and provide them a kind of pastime（放松并得到娱乐方式）5）get over deep depression克服压抑心情、dispel chronic anxiety消除紧张 7）relieve their pressure from intense social competition（减压）8）get away from daily grind or calm your nerve（放松）
四、考研英语二信件作文解析
1） 看似是咨询信，但是内容做了限定，要求向对方说一下自己的生活习惯、并让对方给出 建议。
2） 考生如果从作息角度展开论述，那么和英语一的写法就有相似的地方，如1）I never stay up late until the midnight/burn the midnight oil；2）We sleep regular hours and live a normal life；
3） 如果从自己的娱乐爱好展开论述，和英语一也有类似的1) I am interested in taking part in many sports activities such as jogging, playing basketball and swimming. 2) By taking part in these activities together, we can relieve their academic pressure and become more vigorous. 3）At weekend, I love to climb a hill or take many friends on an excursion. 4）give people a lot of fun and provide them a kind of pastime（放松并得到娱乐方式）5）get over deep depression克服压抑心情、dispel chronic anxiety消除紧张、6）damage(harm/ruin/undermine) mental health; improve mental health（保持健康）7）relieve their pressure from intense social competition（减压）8）get away from daily grind or calm your nerve（放松）
4） 针对这里的生活提一些建议的要求也比较宽泛，只要和居住的建议挂钩即可。是否带信 用卡，以备支付房租（都是一些咨询比较常用的句子）
5） 参考范文：
Dear John,
I am writing to kindly inform you that I am going to study at your university and share the same room with you.
First, I would like to tell you something about my living habits. For exmaple, I never stay up late until the midnight, nor do I burn the midnight oil. In this way, it is possible for us to live a normal life, if we become roommates. Besides, I would be pleased if you offer me some advice about living here: Shall I bring a credit card with me so that I can pay for my roomrent?
I will be a very good roommate, who can get along with you during the campus life. Sincerely Yours
