Features: This book is compiled based on the new postgraduate entrance examination outline issued in August 2004, guiding candidates to prepare for the new writing section. The book is divided into three major modules. The first module provides a comprehensive analysis of the principles, writing process, and characteristics and connections between old and new question types in postgraduate English writing. The second module specifically analyzes the postgraduate examination questions from 1995 to 2004 and offers specialized training for the newly added application letter writing in 2005, both of which include scope and detailed scoring analysis. The third module helps candidates improve their English language proficiency by providing a wealth of excellent and practical language materials such as writing gems, proverbs, and idiomatic expressions. It also illustrates common language errors in postgraduate English writing, as well as the replacement and refinement of writing words and phrases. The entire book combines content with language improvement modules, organically integrating the goal of improving postgraduate examination scores with actual writing proficiency. The book is divided into two parts. Part 1, "Postgraduate New Question Prediction," aligns with the significant adjustments in the 2005 English postgraduate examination outline, providing a detailed analysis of the newly added two question types—choice matching and application short essays—and proposing fast and effective response strategies. 50 choice matching mock test questions are selected strictly according to the question-setting style of the postgraduate examination drafting team, with each question sourced from renowned international publications in the science and technology section. 21 classic examples and numerous precise and idiomatic sentences cover all application short essay question directions, offering the best imitation models for improving application letter writing skills. The book's second part, "Postgraduate Translation Explanation," starts with the postgraduate translation test questions from 1994 to 2005, providing detailed analyses interspersed with various translation techniques. The second part of the book also includes selected translations by renowned experts for readers to study and appreciate.
