2．通过讲座，师生了解了常用的肢体语言及其含义。 注意：1．词数80左右；

2．可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 第一步：准确审题，理行文脉络，拟写作要点

本文属于提纲式作文，要求写一封感谢信，话题具有一定的开放性，时态为一般现在时，人称为第一人称。文章可分三个层次：开头点明写信目的，介绍自己并真诚地表达对Smith教授的感谢；主体部分应对通过讲座师生了解了常用的肢体语言及其含义进行构思，如身势语与情感的关系；结尾应再次表达感谢，紧扣写信的目的，与首段相呼应。

要点1：我是李华，我写信表达对您真诚的感谢。(convey)

My_name_is_Li_Hua._I'm_writing_to_convey_my_sincere_appreciation_to_you. 要点2：通过您的讲座，我们了解到身势语是表达情感的最有效的方法之一。

要点3：再次感谢您精彩的演讲。

Thank_you_again_for_your_wonderful_lecture. 第二步：添加细节，文意更丰满，表达更亮眼

为了使文章在内容上和形式上更丰满，我们在增加细节的同时，要学会使用较高级的语法结构和高频词汇给文章增加亮点。如：要点1可以增加v.­ing作状语“代表我们学校”和现在分词短语作后置定语“上周你给我们的有关身势语的专题讲座”；要点2可以增加时间状语从句；要点2还可以补充个人观点，再次强调专题讲座上所学知识非常有益。 拓展要点1：我是李华。代表我们学校，我写信表达对您上周给我们做的有关身势语的专题讲座的真诚感谢。(v.­ing作状语，现在分词短语作后置定语)

补充要点2：我的确相信当我们与来自其他国家的人交流时这些知识非常有益。

I_do_believe_the_knowledge_will_be_very_beneficial_when_we_communicate_with_people_from_other_countries.

第三步：连句成文，排语句顺序，重衔接过渡

结合写作要点，文章可分为三段来写。根据语篇表达中的逻辑关系，将所有要点顺序连接，使文章顺畅、过渡自然。 Dear_Professor_Smith， My_name_is_Li_Hua.Representing_our_school,_I'm_writing_to_convey_my_sincere_appreciation_to_you_for_the_lecture_concerning_body_language_you_gave_us_last_week.

Through_your_lecture,_we_have_learned_that_body_language_is_one_of_the_most_effective_methods_of_expressing_our_feelings_when_it_comes_to_communication._I_do_believe_the_knowledge_will_be_very_beneficial_when_we_communicate_with_people_from_other_countries.

[高考典例2]2012·辽宁卷·C篇

In the past two decades， the Chinese studies programs have gained huge popularity in Western universities. More recently， the Chinese government has set up Confucius Institutes in more than 80 countries. These schools teach both Chinese language and culture. The main courses of Chinese culture usually included Chinese art， history and philosophy 哲学. Some social scientists suggest that Westerners should take advantage of the ancient Chinese wisdom to make up for the drawbacks of Western philosophy. Students in the United States， at the same time， are racing to learn Chinese. So they will be ready for life in a world where China is an equal power with the United States. Businessmen who hope to make money in China are reading books about Confucius to understand their Chinese customers.

So the old thinker’s ideas are still alive and well.

Today China attracts the West more than ever， and it will need more teachers to introduce Confucius and Chinese culture to the West.

As for the old thinker， he will not soon be forgotten by people in the West， even if his birthday is.
