Answer

Dear Sir or Madam,

My name is Li Hua, a student currently studying at Nanchang No.2 Middle School. I am writing to apply for the 2000 yuan's worth of fund aimed at helping those students who are financially disadvantaged.

Being raised in families that don’t have to worry about putting food on the table need not mean ignoring our less fortunate peers. On this account, we would appreciate it if you could sponsor our poverty-relief endeavor. The following is how we would go about using the money.    We would  spend 1500 yuan purchasing some stationery for the needy students in a poverty-stricken area. The remainder of the fund would be used to invite a motivational speaker who was to talk about how to lift oneself out of poverty by making right academic and professional decisions. Our efforts might make a difference in the lives of some young people, but who knows what butterfly effects these young minds may have on tomorrow's world?

We would be grateful if you could reply at your earliest convenience. You could contact me at [e-mail].

Yours sincerely,

Li Hua

【解析】名师点睛：

该文体属于书信作文。首先明确的是一封申请信，所以在措辞时应该保持尊敬，谦和地语气，切记语气生硬，这时在商务交流时需切记的一点。其次囊括文本所要求的三个方面，但不代表不可以发挥自己的想法，总归来看文章还是有自己的发挥之处：经费的具体设想和使用方法，本方面需要考生能够结合实际情况给出具体的可行操作方案，考查学生的思辨能力和跨文化交际能力。在过渡时，用词能够衔接自然。最后要注明自己的联系方式已确保收到回信。

范文亮点：

a student currently studying at Nanchang No.2 Middle School使用了同位语从句，students who are financially disadvantaged.使用了定语从句等，这些都丰富了整篇的句式多样化；apply for，On this account，make a difference等使用了固定搭配短语。We would spend 1500 yuan purchasing some stationery for the needy students in a poverty-stricken area.这里明确点出了基金的具体用途，避免了空话现象。
