【规律分析】便条也是PETS第一级书面表达的考查重点。实际上是一种简单的书信，内容简短，格式简单，通常只有一两句话，开门见山。便条内容包括通知、询问、约会、留言等。便条一般是托人递交的或是本人临时在某一场合直接留言，所谈及的一般都是在一两天内的情况。便条通常没有写信人及收信人地址，一般也没有结束语等项，用词随便，比较接近于口语。

(三) 日记

你昨晚在回家的路上淋雨，晚上开始头疼，今天不能去上课。

任务：请写一篇50字左右的日记，所涉及内容有：

Tuesday, May 20th,2003

I feel not well today. I can’t go to school because I have caught a cold.

I was caught in the rain on my way home yesterday afternoon. I began to have a headache and a temperature at midnight. My mother took me to hospital this morning. The doctor said that I got a bad cold. He gave me some medicine and told me to stay in bed for one day.

So I’m staying home now. I hope I can go to school tomorrow.

【规律分析】日记是考生比较熟悉的一种写作形式，最为贴近生活，所以写起来不会很困难。格式方面需要注意：日记最前面应该有星期、年月日和天气情况的说明，其中月和日不可省去，其余的有时可以省略，具体写作格式视试题具体要求而定。

(四) 通知
