Passage 1
How to Write a High-Score English Essay
Writing a high-score English essay is not difficult if you master the right skills. Here are four
key aspects to consider:
First, structure is the skeleton of an essay. The "three-paragraph structure" is the most reliable.
The introduction should clearly state the theme and attract readers. The body paragraph needs
2-3 arguments, each with supporting details like examples or data. The conclusion should
summarize the main ideas and升华 the theme instead of just repeating the beginning.
Second, content is the flesh. A good essay must be "meaningful". Instead of using empty
words, use diverse evidence. You can include social phenomena, famous people's examples
or research results. Adding vivid details like scene and action descriptions can make the
content more lively.
Third, language is the soul. On the basis of correct grammar, upgrade your language. Replace
basic words with precise ones—for example, use "convinced" instead of "bine
short and long sentences, and use special structures like inverted sentences or emphasis
sentences to make the writing more layered.
Fourth, format and punctuation are the外衣. Ensure clean handwriting and correct format,
especially for letters or notices. Check for punctuation errors, such as missing commas in
complex sentences.
By focusing on these four aspects, you can write an excellent English essay.
76. What is called the "skeleton" of an essay （ ）
A. Content B. Structure C. Language D. Format
77. How many arguments are needed in the body paragraph usually （ ）
A. 1-2 B. 2-3 C. 3-4 D. 4-5
21 世纪教育网()
78. Which of the following can make the content more lively （ ）

C. Adding vivid details D. Using simple sentences
79. What does "language upgrade" mean （ ）
A. Using more difficult words randomly
B. Replacing basic words with precise ones
C. Using only long sentences
D. Writing more paragraphs
80. What should we pay attention to about format （ ）
A. Using any format for different writings
B. Ensuring correct format especially for specific genres
C. Ignoring punctuation
D. Writing as long as possible
Passage 2
Writing a Letter to a Foreign Friend
When writing a letter to a foreign friend, there are specific requirements for both content and
format.
First, the format must be correct. Start with your address and the date at the top right corner.
Then write the greeting on the left—"Dear [Friend's Name]," is the most proper. The body is
the main part, which should be clear and friendly. You can share your recent life, ask about
their situation or talk about common interests. Finally, end with a closing like "Best wishes,"
or "Yours truly," and sign your name below.
Second, the content should be appropriate. Keep the tone natural and sincere. Avoid using
complex sentences or difficult vocabulary to ensure your friend can understand easily.
Adding specific details can make the letter more interesting. For example, instead of saying
"I had a good holiday," you can write "I went to Guilin with my family during the holiday.
We climbed Elephant Trunk Hill and ate delicious Guilin Rice Noodles."

Third, check before sending. Look for grammar mistakes, spelling errors and format

cause discomfort.

How to Write a High-Score English Essay
Writing a high-score English essay is not difficult if you master the right skills. Here are four key aspects to consider:

Writing a Letter to a Foreign Friend

First, the format must be correct. Start with your address and the date at the top right corner. Then write the greeting on the left—"Dear [Friend's Name]," is the most proper. The body is the main part, which should be clear and friendly. You can share your recent life, ask about their situation or talk about common interests.
