问题     Suppose your neighbor Uncle Li feeds many pigeons in his corridor, which interferes with your daily life quite a lot. You have communicated with Uncle Li, but he refused to move away the pigeons. Write a letter of complaint to the neighborhood committee. Your letter should include:
    1) a description of the situation
    2) complaint about the situation
    3) your request
    You should write approximately 100 words. Do not sign your own name at the end of your letter. Use "Wang Lin" instead. You don’t need to write the address.

选项

答案Dear Sir/Madam, I write this letter of complaint to you because I really can’t stand those pigeons in my corridor any more. My neighbor Uncle Li raises many pigeons in the corridor that he shares with us and it’s very noisy with those pigeons flying in and out now and then. Moreover, it’s always so dirty and smelly with the droppings everywhere in the corridor that it’s a suffering to pass by the corridor. I’ve communicated with Uncle Li but he refused to move away his pigeons. So I’d like you to ask him to reconsider it. Because his pigeons have interfered with the life of the whole neighborhood. Yours sincerely, Wang Lin

解析 本题要求写一封投诉信。在写这类体裁的时候,要看清题目的要求以及具体的内容。一些考生遇到这样的命题作文经常会觉得没有东西可写。其实很简单,比如我们可以试着置身其中,设身处地地想想如果这样的事情发生在自己身上,我们会有什么反应。还有,写投诉信要注意的一个问题,不能蛮横无理,而要以一种跟人讲道理的口气来写。
经典例句:
1.I really can’t stand…我实在不能忍受……
“忍受”一词可以用“stand”,“bear”,“tolerate”表示。
2.So I’d like you to ask him to reconsider it. 所以我希望您可以要求他重新考虑。
这里用的是一种比较委婉的说法,写信的人当然是希望收信人让李叔叔把鸽子搬走,但是语气不能太强烈,故他用了reconsider。
