PET寫作第三部分是對第二部分的延續(xù),更加系統(tǒng)地考查孩子的語言表達能量?春⒆幽芊癜凑找螅磉_信息,同時看孩子能否具有展開表達信息的能力。
第三部分一般會有兩道備選題目:寫書信和編故事。考生可以根據(jù)自己的情況來選擇其中之一來完成就行。這一部分較之前面的寫作難度加大,字數(shù)要求在 100詞左右。因此,廣大考生在復習過程中,定要引起足夠重視。希望同學們在牢記第二部分要求,如書信格式、客套話等的同時,還要注意以下幾點:
一、句式多變,詞匯豐富。
鑒于這部分的寫作要求和難度,不論是寫書信還是編故事,由于100詞的字數(shù)要求,考生必須要學會用具體的,多樣化的語句來描寫某樣東西或某件事情。有 的孩子從頭至尾都用"There is"的句式,而且重復多遍,看來單調乏味,很難得。我們不妨用主動和被動句式、各種不同的從句、動詞不定式、強調句、虛擬語氣等等,當然我們要寫的 句式必須是自己熟悉的,有把握的。
詞匯量的大小影響寫作成績。試想你形容餐館good,食品good,氛圍good,那也太無聊了,我們平時就積累一些詞匯,比如餐館clean and tidy,食品nice and tasty,氛圍friendly and pleasant等等,而不至于到診斷時言之無物。
二、問題都答,加上連詞。
如果第二單元你要給筆友寫一份回信,信中有這么一個問題Have you got a favorite restaurant? Tell me about the food and what you like about the restaurant。這個問題看似非常簡單,但如果你就回答一句 I have got my favorite restaurant. 可以,但如果你不學會怎么擴展這個話題,那一封信中根本就寫不了上百個單詞。因此,學會拓展話題這一點在這部分中尤為重要,如你可以寫餐館的名字、位置、 特色等等。
如果你選擇編故事也很好。我們PET考生大多是青少年,正是想象力非常豐富的時候,很適合去編故事。但在書寫的過程中,一定要注意盡量用自己有把握的 語言來表達和描述。此外,既然是故事,就應該把事情發(fā)生的時間、地點、人物、過程以及結果都完整地表述出來。因此,我們在平時就把日常生活中所發(fā)生的有意 義的小事兒用英文記錄下來,日積月累你會發(fā)現(xiàn),你的書寫素材會越來越多,這種診斷對你來說,將會是"a piece of cake"。
另外注意適當使用一些關聯(lián)詞,如and, but, so, if,使行文更加流暢。
三、平時勤練,克服畏懼。
因為該部分要求比較高,建議考生平時可以多做這樣的書寫訓練。在學而思PET考前查漏補缺班,我們會訓練四五篇大作文,希望同學們平時就認真對待,描寫到位,在老師的指導下,逐步明白自己的弱項在哪里,進而逐漸消除無話可寫的心理恐懼,并提高寫作水平。

Sample answer of question 7:
Dear Elaine,
Many thanks for your letter; it was really nice to hear from you again. It's such a long time since we wrote to each other. In your letter, you asked me if I had a favorite restaurant. In my town, which is called Tours, we have lots of restaurants. But the name of my favorite restaurant is "La Trattoria". It's an Italian restaurant, which is situated in the oldest quarter where everyone goes to have a drink, but it's mostly frequented by students. I like this restaurant because we can have Italian food but also typical food from my area like cheese, duck pate. The atmosphere is very pleasant because there is a soft music and the people who work there, are very friendly.
If you come in Tours, we will go to have a meal. I am sure you will love this restaurant.
Give my regards to your family. I look forward to seeing you soon.
Love
考官評價:
該信函句式變化多樣,詞匯量大,如the atmosphere is very pleasant, the people who work there are very friendly。另外作者用了簡單的關聯(lián)詞如"and, but, if"等使文章更加連貫,更加完整。當然文中也有幾處小錯誤,如a soft music,但是總的說來行文流暢,讀者閱讀起來很輕松?梢缘弥δ芰Α
Sample answer of question 8:
I was on the beach when my mobile phone rang. I looked at the mobile screen but the number was unknown. I decided to answer anyway. "Hello!" I said. "Hello, Mr Tandulkar, this is the manager of the "Brooke" restaurant. I wanted you to know that the reservation of your table is confirmed at nine o'clock, this evening." "What?" I asked. "I don't have any reservation, and I didn't call you for booking any table for this evening!" "I'm sorry Mr Tandulkar but I have a reservation at your name, a woman called this morning and she booked a table for two". I was curious to meet that unknown woman, so I went to the restaurant at nine o'clock dressed on my best suit. The manager brought me to the mysterious woman and I was anxious to meet her! I looked at her and I was stunned! It was my sister! What a surprise. She wanted to celebrate her birthday! We had a very nice evening but at last I've paid the bill!
Examiner comments
This is a very good attempt with confident and ambitious use of direct speech, e.g. "What?" I asked. "I don't have any reservation…'. There is a more than adequate range within a well organized story, with beginning, middle and end. There are some minor errors which are non-impeding, e.g. 'at last I've paid the bill,' dressed on my best suit' and no effort is required from the reader.
考官評價:
本文大膽自信地嘗試了直接引語,e.g. "What?" I asked. "I don't have any reservation…'文章因此而生動有趣。故事有開頭、發(fā)展和結尾,結構緊湊。雖然有些小錯,但不影響閱讀,可以得助力能力。
