Period Five Writing-Persuasive writing:letter
本单元的写作目标是"劝说信"。劝说信要求就有关问题进行分析并针对这些问题劝说某人采纳自己的建议或看法。可以通过以下三个部分来进行写作:
第一部分:引入话题。写信人首先需要说明写信的主要目的。如果需要的话,也可以大致作一下自我介绍。
第二部分:阐述理由。这是劝说信的主体和核心部分。写信人需要在这部分条理地列出自己的理由。理由要客观,真实,有说服力,要重点突出,层次分明。同时,要注意适当提高语言的力度,发挥语言的功力,以便更好地展现自己的立场。
第三部分:总结全文。重申自己的核心观点,提出希望。这部分要注意语言的简练和冲击力,切记冗杂拖拉的表达。
