Answer 1

One possible version:
Dear Mr. Smith,
I am writing to request the valuable chance to be one of the home-stay families for the American students. As an active girl studying in Guangming School of Tianjin, I’m quite good at English. My parents, who are kind and friendly, are in favor of my idea that I host an American student. We have a clean and comfortable house, which lies in a beautiful area of the city. Luckily, we have extra rooms for guests. My mother cooks well so the students will be able to enjoy delicious Chinese food. What’s more, my father is an excellent driver and we will be very glad to show foreign students around some local places of interest and some typical towns and villages in our area. I would greatly appreciate it if I could have the chance to make friends with them.
I’m looking forward to your early reply.
Yours sincerely,
Li Jin

 
試題分析：本文是材料和圖表結合的作文，通過認真讀題，我們明白了寫作要求和目的。本文要求寫一封申請信，內容是關于住宿家庭的。應該用第一人稱，時態(tài)多是一般現在時。寫作前最好先根據給出的提綱，寫出有關的短語和固定表達備用。最后串聯起來。內容要點包括：我是光明中學學生，本人擅長英語；我母親擅長烹飪，父親會開車；家里的房子干凈、舒適，有客房；計劃帶美國學生在周圍游覽；盼望回信。
【亮點說明】 本文做到了包含所有內容要點，語句通順，標點符號運用正確。在150詞左右的篇幅中，恰當地運用了一些短語和句式，如用動詞的-ing形式和who、which引導的定語從句做定語，尤其是in favor of my idea that I host an American student運用了that引導的同位語從句說明自己的想法idea，還有appreciate、looking forward to等比較高級的詞匯都可圈可點。
