在BEC考试前，为了巩固词汇和句型而进行的BEC写作练习中，很多同学将写作和造句简单地等同起来，觉得BEC写作只是把记忆过的生词和句子用造句的形式套用一下而已，和抄写的效果区别不大，无法令人提起兴趣。其实这是对写作被动接受的态度，没有充分让大脑活动起来就没有办法加强对语言的掌握。因此现在就让你的脑子和下面的文章一起活动吧!
改革开放以来,出国留学的热潮一直有增无减。对于一个渴望出国深造的人来说,写封好的求学信,至关重要。
总的来说,第一封求学信不要过长,只需写明自己的姓名、职业、学历、专业、入学时间以及通讯地址即可。待所申请的学校复函后,再按要求寄去所需材料,例如:简历、成绩单、学位证明、推荐信、经济担保书、健康证明、外语考试成绩等。

Dear Mr Smiths,
Thank you for your last letter.
As your require, I have written a personal statement to give a detailed description of my academic and work experience in Tianjin University. I also wrote my reasons for my applying to your Graduate School for pursuit of the International Business Program.
I have two letters of recommendation for me. One of them is from an English Professor, which proves that my English has reached an advanced level. The other is from an economics professor, which certificates that I am good in the field of economics and business management. Both of the letters will be mailed directly to you.
My GMAT score is 2160. I haven’t received my TOFEL score yet. But I will send it to you as soon as I know.
Best Wishes
Yours sincerely,

*申请出国的求学信应包括PS.推荐信和相关英语考试的成绩,诸如TOFEL、GRE以及GMAT等,一般来说GRE和GMAT有一个即可申请,而TOFEL成绩则是去英语国家留学的必要条件。
