读者原文

Dear Sir:

I'm writing you this letter to express my heartfelt thanks for offering me the post. I have always longed for the chance of working and studying in your company. But another reason prevent me from having the pleasure to accept the job offer.

As you know, I came from a small village where is poor and backward. The villagers are living a steadfast and assiduous life now and no college students would like to go there and help them out. So I think it's my duty to go back to my hometown and do my best to help the villagers live a better life.

For this, I'm awfully sorry that I have to give up the golden opportunity to work in your company which is well-known both at home and abroad. I hope you can understand and forgive me for the job offer. Also I wish your company becoming more prosperous every day.

Best wishes.

Yours sincerely,

Kate

改写后的文章

Dear Sir:

I'm writing you this letter to express my heartfelt thanks for offering me the post. I have always longed for a chance to work in your company. But one thing prevents me from having the pleasure of accepting the job offer.

As you probably know from my resume, I came from a small village, which is poor and backward. The villagers have been living a hard life but no college graduates return there and help them out. So, I think it's my duty to go back to my hometown and do my best to help the villagers live a better life.

For this, I have to give up the golden opportunity to work in your company, which is well-known both at home and abroad. I hope you can understand my decision and forgive me for refusing the job offer. Meanwhile, I hope your company will become more prosperous with each passing day.

Best wishes,

Yours sincerely,

Kate

夏教授的讲评

这篇作文写得还算可以,可以说达到了大学英语写作的最基本的要求。尽管有一些句子结构和用词错误,但作者要表达的意思基本上可以传达给读者。从通篇行文来看,该生基本语法和句子结构掌握较好,并已具备了驾驭长句和复杂句子的能力,对英语的词语搭配和习惯用法也比较注意。但是看样子该生有一些粗心大意,另外对文章的连贯性也不够注意,写完后没有仔细修改,犯了一些本可以避免的错误。下面是几点修改意见:

1. 第一段第二句 "I have always longed for the chance of working and studying in your company"中,应删去 "and studying" ,公司雇你去工作,并非学习。
