考研英语中大作文的要求是内容切题、表达清楚、文字连贯、句式多变和语言规范。小作文考察点在信息点的覆盖、语言的准确性、文章组织的连贯性上。

其中小作文占10分，分为求职信、祝贺信、道歉信、询问信、推荐信、感谢信、邀请信、辞职信等等二十多种应用文。每个类别都有相对固定的语言模式，都有固定词语要求。

推荐信是写信人向收信人推荐某人做某事的信件。推荐信在西方国家是求职，求学的必备材料。写推荐信的人必须对被推荐者有一定的了解。最好有较深的资历，如被推荐者的原单位领导，本专业的专家等，名声越大越好。除了请别人推荐，也可以自荐 。

写作“三步走”：

指出写信人和被推荐人的关系，及推荐的原因→概述被荐人的品质、能力、性格等→.总结说明被推荐人值得被推荐(例如能胜任工作)。

注意：

推荐信要多写优点，充分肯定成绩，篇幅不宜过长，但也不能三言两语过于简单。
