考研英語中小作文考察點(diǎn)在信息點(diǎn)的覆蓋、語言的準(zhǔn)確性、文章組織的連貫性上。

　　其中小作文占10分，分為求職信、祝賀信、道歉信、詢問信、推薦信、感謝信、邀請信、辭職信等等二十多種應(yīng)用文。每個(gè)類別都有相對固定的語言模式，都有固定詞語要求。

　　道歉信是指因過失或疏忽做錯(cuò)了事，給別人帶來了麻煩或損失，發(fā)覺后要立即寫信給對方賠禮道歉時(shí)寫的信件。道歉是一種禮貌，道歉信要寫得坦率，誠懇。

　　道歉信通常包括三部分內(nèi)容：1、表示歉意，道歉的原由;2、出現(xiàn)差錯(cuò)的原因，提出彌補(bǔ)措施;3、請求原諒。語言要誠摯，解釋的理由要真實(shí)。好的道歉信不僅會(huì)取得對方的諒解，還會(huì)增進(jìn)彼此的感情。

　　寫作"三步曲"表示歉意→說明具體原因、提出補(bǔ)救辦法→再次致歉，希望得到理解。

　　注意：

　　理由要盡量合理，違反生活常識(shí)將導(dǎo)致扣分;盡量提供一個(gè)合適的補(bǔ)救辦法，使行文更加順暢。
