考研英语写作小作文之感谢信
在考研英语的part a 小作文部分，书信作为考查的重点所在，种类繁多。在前面我们曾就以题目为例，详细地解析过建议信、投诉信和咨询信的写作方法及其注意事项。今天本文就对考研英语小作文中的第四类书信——感谢信——进行深入的分析。
感谢信，英文中称为 letter of thanks或letter of gratitude。顾名思义，就是写信人因得到某人或某单位的帮助、支持或关心而向对方表示感谢的信件。书写时语言要真诚感人，表达感激时要恰到好处，切忌过于夸张、让人心生虚伪之感。
一般来说，在考研英语中，感谢信主体部分的写作可按照三个步骤进行，即“三步走”策略：
首段：提出感谢，简述事由; 中段：具体帮助，自身感受; 尾段：再次感谢，期待回报。 例题：
directions：
you should write neatly on answer sheet 2.
do not sign your own name at the end of the letter. use “li ming” instead.
do not write the address.
题目要求向孙教授写一封信，感谢他在自己申请耶鲁大学时所给予的推荐。根据上面所提的感谢信写作“三步走”策略，操作如下：
第一句话直接表明写信目的，即向对方表示衷心的感谢，之后再简要陈述事由，即为了什么事情向对方表示感谢。此句之后，为了让自己的感谢之情表现得更为真诚和强烈，第二句需进行进一步的强调，可用without your help, i wouldnt have done??。
在本段中，若收信人对自己的帮助不止一点，则首先要将其帮助细节进行分条描述，更显逻辑;若收信人所提供的帮助只有一点，则进行具体陈述即可。此外，无论收信人的帮助多或少，写信人都需在具体陈述帮助细节后附加自己的感受或对自己的意义等来进行进一步的深化与阐释，以使自己的感激更为真诚，而不浮夸。
尾段：thank you again for your kindness and i hope i will have the opportunity to return your charming help.
本段中第一句话再次表达了自己对收信人的感激之情，第二句话表达了自己希望有机会对收信人的帮助做出相应的回报，这样一来，就显得自己的感谢并不仅仅是说说而已。 在考研英语的书信表达中，类似的首段或尾段的套用句式比较丰富，大家需要在复习过
程中进行有意的积累，并在写作中加以运用：
1. it is my great pleasure to show my hearty thanks to you
for...
2. i am writing to extend my gratitude to you because with your
help...
3. i take this opportunity to express to you my deep
appreciation for the kind assistance you rendered me. 4. i appreciate it more than i can say.
5. i am obliged to you for your unselfish assistance during... 6. thank you again for your kindness and i hope that i will
have the opportunity to return your charming hospitality. 因此，该题的完整范文如下： dear professor sun,
thank you again for your kindness and i hope i will have the opportunity to return your charming help.

感谢信是对收信人的某一行为表示感谢。 写作策略：
感谢信还有浓厚的感情色彩，具有比较浓的人情味，因此可操作性不是太强。考生即便学习了一篇范文，但对另外一道此类题目也是可能不知该从何处入手。实际上感谢信（还包
括表扬信）从内容上恰恰与投诉信相反，因此可以直接套用投诉信的写法，只需将投诉信主体段落对投诉理由的具体说明改为对感谢或表扬理由的具体说明即可。例如，一道题目说
代我在一个旅馆信了一段时间，但方方面面都不尽如人意，回家后你和家人都闹肚子，请你写一封投诉信。而另外一道题则是说你在一家旅馆住了一段时间，在那里度过了一段美好的时光，请你写一封感谢信。这两封信在主体段落上都可以从几个方面对该旅馆进行投诉或感谢，都可以从服务、饮食卫生、客房环境等几个方面来说明投诉或感谢的理由，只需将投诉信的不满改为感谢信的满意即可。由此可知，只要掌握了投诉信的写法，感谢信也应当是手到擒来。
感谢信开头段常用句式和套话
i am writing to extend my sincere gratitude for... i am writing to express my thanks for...
i am writing to show my sincere appreciation for...
i would like to convey in this letter my heartfelt thanks to you for... i feel deeply indebted to you and i really dont know how to thank you enough for your help.
感谢信结尾段常用句式和套话
i must thank you again for your generous help. i am most grateful for your selfless donation.
my true gratitude is beyond the words description. i feel most obliged to thank you once more. please accept my gratitude, now and always. ★例：
directions:
after being involved in an accident, you were looked after by another person. write a letter:
1) mentioning what happened in the accident, 2) telling the person about your recovery, and 3) expressing your thanks.
you should write with no less than 100 words on answer sheet 2. do not sign your own name at the end of the letter. use li ming instead. you do not need to write the address.
范文：
dear john,
i am writing to thank you for looking after me after that
unfortunate accident the other day, when i was knocked off my bike by a taxi. if it had not been for your assistance in giving me first aid and taking me to a nearby hospital, i fear that the consequences might have been much more serious.
although nowadays many people talk about the need to be
unselfish and to help others, we see very few people practicing what they preach. but you showed by your actions that you are an exception.
yours sincerely, li ming
