2016年考研英语已经结束,和以往常考书信类文体一样,这次的小作文要求写一篇回信,感谢好友的祝贺并给好友一些学习方面的建议。从这个应用文的选题中也可以看出来考试越来越考察大家的语言运用能力。下面给大家一篇范文,仅供参考。

Dear Jack,

I am writing to thank you for your congratulations on my success in the translation contest. In your letter, you told me that you wanted to know how to do well in translation. Here are some pieces of advice.
First, you need to grasp the basic grammar knowledge, which enables to you to understand the sentences correctly and translate the original language to the target language properly. Second, a wide range of extensive knowledge in different fields is preferred because the more you know, the easier it is for you to make clear what the passage is talking about.

I hope these pieces of information are of great help for your future study and translation.

Yours sincerely,
Li Ming
