距离最后的考试只有两个多月的时间，最后的冲刺序幕正式拉开。英语复习到这个阶段，最重要的就是作文。要想在最后的考试成绩中脱颖而出，现阶段就必须要把精力放在分值占在30分的写作上。
    
    考研英语中大作文的要求是内容切题、表达清楚、文字连贯、句式多变和语言规范。小作文考察点在信息点的覆盖、语言的准确性、文章组织的连贯性上。
    
    其中小作文占10分，分为求职信、祝贺信、道歉信、询问信、推荐信、感谢信、邀请信、辞职信等等二十多种应用文。每个类别都有相对固定的语言模式，都有固定词语要求。
    
    祝贺信是由于某种原因向收信人道贺的信件，一般包含三个部分：1． 点明要祝贺的事情，并向对方道贺；2． 详述祝贺的事情；3． 再次祝贺。祝贺信除了向对方道贺以外，还可表达祝福、期望等。语言应热情洋溢，满怀喜悦。
    
    写作“三步走”：
    
    说明事由并表达自己忠心的祝贺（首段）—>展开事件评论，赞扬收信人（主体段落）—>再次表达良好祝愿（结尾段）
    
    注意：
    
    在写作主要内容的时候，可以重点赞扬一下当事人的优秀能力和取得成就的原因，并展望他将来的美好发展前景等。
