Answer

Dear editor,

I’d like to introduce a great man to you.

Mark Twain, an American man, was born in a poor family in the countryside on November 30, 1835. He is known to the world as a great writer. Unluckily, his father died when he was 11 years old. However, he was always positive toward life. As a young man, he did different jobs, such as a worker and a reporter. He was fond of writing all the time. As a result, many novels were published in his life. He devoted himself to writing and died of an illness on April 21, 1910.

Mark Twain who is a clever and humorous master will be remembered by the world forever.

Yours faithfully,

Li Hua

【解析】这是一篇邮件，文章内容要点已经给出，同学们在写邮件的过程中应该注意几点：

1.邮件的格式正确性，信件开头和结尾格式较为固定，但根据题干要求，写信对象的不同可稍作调整。例如本题中，收件人为编辑，落款为李华。

2.写邮件一般开门见山，交代写邮件的原因，便于读信人了解邮件重点。在本篇文章中，首先就交代了写信的原因“I’d like to introduce a great man to you.”

3.注意文章要以一定的逻辑顺序进行叙述，既满足题目要求又能把内容表达清楚。范文从马克吐温的背景开始介绍，并介绍了他的一些杰出的成就，内容连贯通畅。

【范文亮点】

优秀词汇和短语：be known to the world 被世界所知，Unluckily不幸的是，be positive toward life积极应对生活，such as例如，be fond of热爱，As a result所以。

优秀句式和行文脉络：

1. He devoted himself to writing and died of an illness on April 21, 1910.这句使用了一个固定搭配“devote to奉献于”，体现了马克吐温的伟大贡献。

2.全文运用了Unluckily，However，As a result这些连接词使行文流畅。而且全文逻辑清晰，观点鲜明，最后还写出对马克吐温概括性的评价“Mark Twain who is a clever and humorous master will be remembered by the world forever.”，这些细节处理的很好。
