Answer 1

Dear Zhang Hua,
I’m sorry to hear that you didn’t do well in your last exam..You are not the only one who seems to try his best but end up with a failure in exams.Quite a few students feel the same way as you. They lose their confident and don’t want to study hard any longer. I am sure you know that it is not good to do so .If so ,you may fall behind others.
I was once in the same situation as you .Falilure is the mother of success.When you face failure,what we need to do is to calm down and correct our leaning methods or ask the teacher for help.Anyway,Rome is not built in a day .we should make progress step by step.In the end , we will succeed.
I hope what I have said is helpful to you. Yours
Li Ming

试题分析：这是一篇给材料作文。本文所给材料比较详细，一共两个方面。一要指出其消极行为可能带来的不良后果。二要结合自身实际，提出新学期应采取的积极态度和应对方法，鼓励他努力学习。
主语主要用第一人称，时态以一般现在时和过去时为主。写作中适当使用连词，注意上下文联系紧密，符合逻辑关系。
【亮点说明】篇短文使用了大量的复合句，固定句式，为文章增色不少。如: 定语从句You are not the only one who seems to try his best but end up with a failure in exams. the same …as,像···一样。not…any longer.不再，等。同时合理运用谚语：Falilure is the mother of success.，Rome is not built in a day。这使文章更生动，使内容更丰富。
