本题要求考生给即将来华的外国留学生写一封100词左右的电子邮件，对他们的到来表示欢迎，向他们介绍校园生活，并且提供建议。考生需要考虑欢迎信函如何措词、外国留学生到校之后需要做的事情、在中国大学生活的特点以及如何才能适应。
写这样一封信要求考生熟练掌握撰写英文书信的格式和写作方法。通常来讲，一封电子邮件应该包括：1)称呼(address)；2)主要内容(body)，包括问候、事由、说明等；3)收尾和落款(signature)。下面这篇范文供考生参考。
Dear international students,
Congratulations on your admission to this university. On behalf of the Students’ Union, I extend a warm welcome to you and look forward to your safe arrival at the beginning of the new term。
I’d like to offer you some information about life in this university. After paying the tuition fee and getting registered, you will need to check into your dormitory. The university canteen is probably the best place to have meals during the term, because food is tasty and inexpensive. If you prefer Western food, there is a cafeteria where you can get sandwiches and spaghetti. You will need to get a student card, which is identity card as well as cash card. You can use it to borrow books, pay for shop purchases, etc. The orientation for new students will probably take a whole week.
In advance I send you our best wishes and hope you will become a member of the Students’ Union。
Sincerely yours,
Li Ming
