雅思考试分为Academic(以下简称为A类)和General Training(以下简称为G类)两种模式。通常来说,以出国工作或者移民为目的的考生应该选择G类考试。A类和G类考试的区别在阅读和写作两项考试上,其中写作考试中的任务一G类与A类题型截然不同,请参见官方指南上的题型解释:
从官方介绍不难看出,G类写作任务一(以下简称T1)要求考生在20分钟左右完成一篇书信的写作,考生也许会被要求去询问信息或解释某些状况。但是,具体而言,考生可能会碰到哪些形式的书信写作呢?根据剑桥2-9八本真题以及近三年考试回顾,雅思G类T1书信类型主要包括感谢信、道歉信、投诉信、求职求学信、邀请信、建议信和咨询求助信等七种。本文将就常考的几种题型,给出相应的解题思路(即书信写作文章结构)与写作句型。
一、感谢信

写感谢信时,书信主体部分一般分为三个段落。第一段自我介绍,表明自己的身份(如果给比较陌生的人写信),说明写信的目的并且表示清楚对对方的谢意。第二段详细说明对方帮助自己的过程,事情发生的具体细节,强调对方给予帮助的重要性。第三段提出回报对方好意的建议,并再次表达自己的感谢之情。
