Dear Mike,

Thank you for inviting me to go to Dalian with you. But I can’t go with you because I have been there twice. Dalian is a beautiful city. It’s very clean. In summer, it’s not very hot. You can go swimming and play ball games on the beach. You know, I like collecting shells. Would you mind sending me some beautiful shells?

I will go camping in Australia . I will visit many cities and take English classes. By the way, I can send you some Australian stamps!

Have a good trip!

这是一篇表格式书面表达，这种题型在近几年的试题中比较常见。这类题的特点是根据试题提供的表格内容及汉语提示，写出若干语境相符、语法正确、意思连贯的句子。表格式作文涉及的题材比较广，可以是人物(单位)介绍、通知、新闻报道等，也可以是信件、日记、故事等。要做好这类题，必须先认真审题(包括汉语提示及表格内容)，抓住表格所表达的中心思想，列出提纲或拟个腹稿，理清思路，然后抓住要点分段表述，写出一篇层次分明、段落清晰、文理通顺、意思连贯的短文。
