My name is Li Hua. I’m having a language training at Oxford University. I plan to have a trip around London on Sunday. luckily, I noticed that there is an advertisement on a tour around London on the net. However, I still have some questions.

First, I’d like to know what’s the price for students. And does it include the entrance fee and the lunch? If we visit the Buckingham, can we have shopping time? What’s more, will you please tell me the time to return because I have some other things to deal with later. I’ll be very thankful for your answer.

I am attending a short-term language training program right now in Oxford, planning for a visit to London on Sunday. When I was surfing the internet and happened to see your advertisement, it caught my notice at once. But there’re some details not clearly showed in the ad that I want to make sure.

Is the price charged in the ad the same for students? Does it include the cost for lunch, and is there any extra entrance fees needed? During the whole trip, will there be any time left for shopping? And when can we actually get back?

I need all the above information to decide whether to join your tour. Please send back your reply.

Thanks a lot.

Several days ago, I happened to find an advertisement for a truly exciting day tour on the Internet. However, there are still some information unclear. So I’m writing to you to make them clear.

First, I don’t know whether shopping time during the tour is arranged. As you know, I’d like to do some shopping in London. Secondly, it is about the price. I wonder whether the price provided includes the entrance fees and the expense for lunch. What’s more, what about the price for students? Lastly, I want to know the time to return besides the start-time.

That’s all,. Your early reply will be appreciated.

I have just learnt about the exciting tour around London advertised on the Internet. But I have some questions about the trip. Above all, I am eager to know whether shopping time is included in the tour, for I have planned to buy some presents for friends. What’s more, I’m wondering whether the price you provide includes entrance fees and the lunch fee and whether I can pay less money with a student card. Still more, please tell me when it is that we will return, for I have to make some preparations for the Monday’s Language classes, in Oxford.

Thank you very much answering all my questions. I’m looking forward to your reply and hoping to enjoy an excellent tour on Sunday.

I ‘am attending a short training of language now in Oxford. I want to pay a visit to London this Sunday, so I’m very interested in the advertisement “A Truly Exciting Day Tour” which you advertised on the Internet. But I have some questions. I know we’ll travel Big Ben. London Eye and Buckingham Palace, but I don’t know anything about our shopping time. There is only a “￡ 45” about the price. However, I want to know whether it includes the entrance fees and the lunch fee. I also don’t know if it is a price for students or adults. Besides, I want to know what’s the time to return. Thank you.

I have read your advertisement and I’m very interested in your A Day Tour. So I want to know more about the exact details.

The advertisement shows the places to visit while it hasn’t told us what the shopping time is. Also, the price is not very clear. Could you please tell me what the price for students is and if the entrance fees and the lunch fees are included? What’s more, I can’t get the clear time to return from the advertisement.

I hope that you can give me a reply for more detailed information.

Than you very much

I’m very interesting in your advertisement which caught my eyes when I was surfing the net. Now I’m writing to ask about some details about it.

Places to visit sound attractive, but I’d like to know if we have shopping time and when it is. Since I am not a student of Oxford but attending a short language training here, I need to know whether 45 pounds is the price for students. I still want both included. 6:30 in the morning is a good time for starting the tour, but when will we return?

I really want to take your Day Tour Service on Sunday, so I look forward to your early reply.

Best wishes.

关于书面表达:

今年的作文题目与往年试题相比立意新颖，符合时代潮流，具有很大的实用性。命题者在提供写作情景地行式上独具匠心,做了大胆的创新。题目以一则英语广告为铺垫，运用简洁的英语词汇提示为线索，为广大考生展示了较深的英语思维空间，同时巧妙地避免了用英语提示写作情景加重考生英语阅读理解负担的难题，这是今年书面表达题目的一大亮点。题目中涉及的“互联网”、“电子邮件”、“牛津”、“伦敦”等词语，给今年的书现表达赋予了更加鲜明的时代感和更加真实的英语环境。今年的高考书面表达更好的测试了学生的英语思维能力和综合运用知识的能力，具有很好的区分度，对今后的中学英语教学特别是新课程标准的实施，具有良好的导向作用，命题是成功的。

考生在试卷中存在的问题，部分考生审题能力差，题目要求通过“询问” 旅游广告中是否含有所列的具体项目的费用以及返程时间，从而弄清具体详情。考生应该通过细致的观察和认真的思考，本着“问什么”、“怎么问”为写作线索确定出写作的要点。一些考生缺乏详细的审题过程，没有搞清题目的要求，不能明确写作的要点，抓不住得分点，丢失了应得的分数。

对今后教学的启示，重视学生英语思维能力的培养。重视语言知识的积累。重视英语知识的运用 。
