Introduction: I bring you a model essay on writing notes for TEM4, hoping to help you. Thank you for reading.

First, pay attention to the basic requirements of CET-4

(1) format is correct. The format of TEM4 notes is basically the same as that of ordinary English letters.

Specifically, it should have a date, a saluwfion, a subject and an ending, which includes a comprehensive ending and a signature.

1. Date refers to the date when the note was written. The date of English paper money is different from that of Chinese paper money. The date of the former is generally written in the upper right corner of the note, and occasionally in the upper left corner of the note, while the date of the latter is written in the lower right corner of the note, which is below the signature. English dates are also written differently from Chinese dates. Chinese usually writes the year first, then the month and day, while English usually writes the year after the month and day. In addition, the month, day and year of English dates are usually separated by commas. For example, April 2, 20081,usually written as April 2, 20081,or April 2, 20081st; Of course, because it is an informal letter, it can also be written as Ap l 2l or April 2 1st (although this writing has only been accepted by TEM4 in the last two years), or as 2 1/4/2008 or 4/2 1/2008. The date can explain the validity of the note, and no date will make people feel confused.

2. Address refers to the address given by the person who wrote the note to the person who received the note. Generally, it begins with "dear", and is written one or two lines below the date, with a blank on the left. Generally speaking, the examination paper of TEM4 will prompt the relationship between the note author and the note receiver. In the prompt? What about you? It refers to the person who wrote the note, and another convenience mentioned is the person who received the note. When addressing, you usually just need to add dear before your name, such as dear Susan and dear Tom. If this person has a social title, he should keep his title when addressing him. For example, Dr. Hess, he should be called Dear Dr. Pierce, not Dear Pierce. If the other party in the prompt appears as Mrs. Wang or Mr. Wang, just add Dear before it, that is, it is called DearMrs Wang or Dear MrWang, not just Dear Wang. When the other party is a relative, you only need to add words to express the capitalization of kinship after dear, such as dear grandpa and dear aunt. It is worth mentioning that in recent years TEM4 has also accepted the name without Dear. The salutation can be followed by a comma or colon.

3.www.freetem4tem8.cn's text is what the note writer wants to describe or talk about, and it is the main part of the note. Generally speaking, a letter begins with the text two lines below the title. But as far as the notes of TEM4 are concerned, it is generally enough to write the text from the next line of the topic. Generally, leave a blank about 5 letters wide on the left side of the first line of the text, but you can also write on it. Note content is simple, few words, so the text generally only needs to write one or two paragraphs. If there are two paragraphs, the first line of the second paragraph should be aligned with the first line of the first paragraph.

4. The ending is as above, including ending rhetoric and signature.

(1) The position of the ending phrase is generally below the last line of the text, starting from the central part of the note and slightly indented to the right. Of course, if the beginning of the text is written in the upper left box, then the ending phrase should also be written in the upper left box at this time. Start with a capital letter and end with a comma. The ending is a courtesy or courtesy of the note writer to the recipient, and the wording changes according to different relationships.

Now described as follows:

1. For people you don't know well, you should use more solemn expressions, such as your sincerity, your sincerity, or sincerity.

For superiors and elders, in addition to the above solemn expressions, you can also yours your respectful your respectful.

For ordinary friends or acquaintances, you can use the more solemn expression mentioned in 1. You can also use more casual expressions like yours.

4. For close friends, a more casual formula should be adopted. For example, yours, love, with love, blessings, greetings and so on.

5. Any of the following can be used for relatives: love, use love, all my love, your affection, your affection, your affection, your affection, your beloved son (Dad? ); But for relatives, it is not appropriate to use your seriousness ~ Because the notes of TEM4 are generally written for the examinee's daily life or study-related things, and the objects of writing are generally their friends, teachers and acquaintances. Therefore, TEM4 generally only accepts your seriousness, yours, yours or yours.

(2) The signature is the signature of the person who wrote the bill, which is located on the right side of the last group of words. If the closing phrase is written in the box in the upper left corner, the signature should also be written in the box in the upper left corner. Signature also depends on the relationship and intimacy between the writer and the recipient. Sometimes, CET-4 will specify the name of the person who wrote the note, and this name should be used when signing. Candidates are not allowed to use their real names without specifying their names. Generally, you only need to write your first name instead of your last name, but if you use a more solemn ending phrase, you can sign your full name at this time.

(2) The content is complete. Generally speaking, an ideal TEM4 note should include the following three points:

(1) The reason for writing the note;

(2) what to say;

(3) Relevant hopes, suggestions or requirements, etc. Notes writing skills are all related to people's daily life or study. For example, thank others for their help, invite friends to visit the book fair, apologize for not being able to keep the appointment on time, and pass the information on to friends. The suggested content is the' ideological content' that candidates want to express. There are different ideological contents, so we should pay attention to their logicality and integrity. There are some established things in life that should be considered when writing. For example, when writing an apology letter, you usually apologize or feel guilty to the other party first, and at the same time explain the reasons for the fault, negligence or mistake, and propose ways to make up for it, which is conducive to obtaining the other party's understanding. Take the note writing of the latest CET-4 exam as an example: the hint is that you didn't make an appointment with your teacher Professor Wang yesterday. Write him an apology letter and ask to meet again. You should also ask for a meeting time. Read this prompt carefully, and you will find that the first sentence determines the content of the apology on the twentieth day; In order to get the other person's understanding and get another chance to meet, you must explain the reason why you failed in your last appointment.

Therefore, the contents of this note must include the following four items:

(1) Apologize for not keeping the appointment,

(2) the reasons for not being present,

(3) Making a request for another meeting,

(4) Suggest the required meeting time. Among them, (3) and (4) clearly require to be expressed in the prompt, while (1) and (2) require to be expressed according to the characteristics of the apology letter. Content is the highlight of note writing. When writing, don't ignore any information in the prompt, and pay attention to the relevant information needed in communication. Of course, when paying attention to the information in the prompt, especially the first sentence, you should pay attention to expressing it in your own correct language, and you can't completely copy the prompt, otherwise you will lose points.

(3) Language appropriateness Content and language are a unity. After mastering the content, you should express it in appropriate language. Generally speaking, the language of the note should be simple and clear, and the words should be easy to understand. Of course, the language style should also be consistent with the scene, and different objects should use different languages. Relatively speaking, the language of superiors, elders and unfamiliar people is more formal, while the language of relatives and friends is more casual. However, no matter who the other party is, a sincere and polite attitude should be reflected in the text.

(4) The number of words meets the requirements. The total number of words (including date, title and ending) in the notes of TEM4 is about 50? 60 words Although there can be 10 less words or 20 more words between these numbers, that is, 40-80 words, it is best to keep the spaces moderate so as not to deduct points because they are too short or too long. Common problems in the writing of notes in TEM4 The common problems in the writing of notes are mainly manifested in the format, content, language and so on.

1. format

The date part is often omitted, or the comma between the date and the month and day is omitted, or a dot is added after the date, or written in Chinese order (for example, April 22, 2006, written as April 22, 2006; April 22, 2006. ; 2006.5.9; Please refer to the corresponding part above for the correct form), or write it under the signature according to the custom of China people. 2. Address forms are not written in the box in the upper left corner, or written on a line with the date; There is a period after the salutation, or there is no comma or colon. Write the conclusion and signature on the same line, or omit the conclusion or the comma after the conclusion.

2. Content: Although the content of the note is simple, it sometimes misses the content that must be expressed.

For example, in the above-mentioned note writing for TEM4, candidates should explain the reasons for not keeping the appointment, but many candidates only wrote the following notes: I'm very sorry to miss tomorrow? We have an appointment, so I really hope we can make another appointment. Sunday evening is convenient for me. What about you? It is not uncommon for communication to be unsuccessful due to unclear understanding of the content or self-reliance standards. Take the above-mentioned note writing of TEM4 as an example, and there are three similar examples among the nine answers sampled at different levels. One of them wrote? Me? I am glad to receive your letter. Regarding our appointment, I think we can make it another time. Maybe tomorrow, 1 will be free and stay at home all day. If you are really free tomorrow, you can call me at any time. Then 1 will visit you? The prompt is to write a short letter of apology, but the candidates' answers are quite different, and the letter does not reveal the idea of apology at all.

3. Language errors in notes can be divided into two categories: understanding and expression, which are mainly reflected in wording, grammar, spelling and so on.

Improper use of words here not only refers to the performance errors in general wording and sentence-making, but also refers to the pragmatic failure caused by not choosing words and sentence-making according to the context provided in the note test of TEM-4, and the pragmatic failure caused by ignoring the social or cultural background differences of the other party. This kind of problem is quite serious in the writing of notes in Grade Four. Let's take the above-mentioned note writing of Grade 4 as an example. In view of space, let's give three examples: (1) In the sentence 1 I'll thank you if you can meet me again, the object after gratitude is inappropriate. As long as the careful reader looks through the dictionary, he will find that the English definition of "thank you" is grateful for (something). If you change this sentence into it (for the latter thing), or thank you, this sentence is correct. (2) At the beginning of the note, the examinee apologized for not being able to make an appointment with Professor Wang due to illness, and then wrote: I am anxious to make an appointment. According to the context, it should be, I am anxious to make an appointment with you again (? Make an appointment with you again. (3) You (the person who wrote the note) didn't keep the appointment for some reason, and the date was your teacher. Afterwards, you have to order the other person to meet you at your home, or you will be addressed with an imperative IZl kiss. Elephant? Do you have to come to my house? , or? Call me to discuss it further? Such words are impolite and make people uncomfortable after reading them.

2. There are many grammatical errors in the notes on grammatical errors, such as articles, parts of speech, tense and aspect of verbs, sentence structure and so on. (1) The article is wrong, such as I am anxious to make an appointment with you. (2) Part-of-speech errors, for example, I must apologize for not keeping the appointment. (3) the verb is wrong in tense and aspect, such as: a. If you are free tomorrow (it will be changed to be), we will meet again. I'm sorry I didn't keep the appointment yesterday. (4) the sentence structure is wrong, such as: I am very sorry. I didn't? T come on a date with you. Because my mother was very ill yesterday, I had to take her to see a doctor. Because my mother is very ill, I have to take her to see a doctor.

Spelling mistakes are the same as other subjective questions. Spelling mistakes are common in note writing. For example: professor-,professor/professor; Convenient-* convenient/convenient ~; Did you get it? } receiving; Dating.
