新三级写作多为应用文写作，内容以商务英语日常应用为主，涵盖祝福信、感谢信、祝贺信、求职信、招聘广告、咨询信、咨询信的回复、介绍信、邀请信、假条、投诉信、公司便笺等诸多方面，字数限制在 40 ~ 50 字。作文应短小精悍，表达通顺，在保证表意清晰的情况下可以使用一些简单句式，不必像大作文使用复杂多样的句式。
应用文写作中需要熟练运用“三段式”的一些固定写法，首先，首段第一步是问候收信人，可参考固定的格式要求，如“Dear Sir/ Madam,To whom it may concern,”；其次是解释写信的原因，用一句话简单概括即可。在第二段的写作中，审题很重要。要把题干中的英文要求全面覆盖，按照出题者的指示去做，不要漏掉内容要点或画蛇添足。第三段是结尾段，用三句话就可以概括，即再一次表达自己的立场，提出解决方案，最后期望回信。
格式是应用文写作的另一个要点。新三级应用文写作有两大类：书信类和告示类。在格式上，首先要注意文章的称呼。如果是写给不认识的人，一般用敬词+尊称，如Dear Sir or Madam;如果是写给关系正式的某团体或个人，称呼为“敬词+尊称+名”，如Dear Mrs. × × ;如果关系很亲密的话，就可以直呼其名，如Dear ×× 。需特别注意，称呼要顶格写，且每个英文单词的首字母都要大写，称呼之后要用逗号。
应用文的正文可以用两种方式呈现，齐头式（ Block Style）和折中式（ Semi-Block Style）。齐头式常在一些正式的信件中使用，以显示信件内容的严肃性、真实性、可靠性。在齐头式书信中，日期和信尾问候语都从左侧顶格开始，段落开头不空格，各段之间空一行。而折中式则显得比较随意，主要用于家人、朋友、私人之间来往的信件。用折中式书写信件，每个段落缩进 2 或 4 个英文字母，各段之间不空行。结尾敬辞、信末签名、写信人姓名和职衔从中间起行。至于书信的结尾，应占用两行写“此致”，正式的英文表达是“ Sincerely yours”，若是与收信人关系亲密也可以用“With Love”或“Best Regards”等。
最后，结尾处要加上逗号和署名。正式的应用文应该是全名（即姓加名）下面再加上职务，非正式的可以只署名，不加姓与职务。注意看文章要求，署题中给出的名字。
另外，应用文写作用语一要准确，根据不同的场合，选择恰到好处的语言。二要严谨，根据文章想要达成的意图，弄明白自己想表达什么，文章条理要清晰。三要简洁，语言要凝练，但不能因为文章短小而忽略作文的构思，不注意文章逻辑。
本章针对广大考生的写作特点，针对应用文总结出了“两步作文法”：“经典例句”和“语言突破范文”，第一步通过背诵例句，帮助考生积累素材，避免写作过程中遇到“巧妇难为无米之炊”的困境。第二步帮助考生吃透范文，为写出通顺流畅、格式正确的文章打好基础。
思考体谅对方的态度（You-Attitude）和以自我为中心的态度（ I-Attitude）的区别。尽量在正式文体中使用You-Attitude,较亲密关系中可使用I-Attitude。
I have pleasure in informing you.
I am pleased to tell you / to say.
Please see that an enquiry is conducted to determine the reason.
Please find out the reason.
（1）开头部分（OPENINGS），请比较下面四组例句：
（2）结尾部分（ENDINGS），请比较下面两组例句：
在应用文中多使用简单的词汇而不是词组。请比较下面两组例子：
Continued
开头部分：
（1）开头部分的称呼要恰到好处。
（2）不要使用否定性的或不礼貌的词语。
（3）从对方的角度出发体谅对方（You-Viewpoint），不能以自我为中心（I-Viewpoint）。
（4）起始句一定要切合正题，不要跑题或重复对方明知的信息，可简单提及早前的联系，以承上启下。
（5）起首段落不宜太长。
（6）起首段落应前呼后应，保证内容连贯性。
结尾段落：
（1）明确提出希望对方采取的行动。
（2）如果对方不是行动的执行者，一定要指明动作的执行者是谁。
（3）说明该行动的具体实施细则。
（4）说明最后的期限。
（5）赞赏对方，但除非对方曾为你做过什么，否则不要随便道谢。
（6）避免使用消极性词汇。
（7）表明愿意提供帮助的态度。
（8）结尾段落不宜过长。
在交卷之前，若有时间，请参考下述问题，检查所写应用文是否准确、恰当。
（1）行文布局是否合理？
（2）单词拼写是否正确？标点符号用得是否恰当？
（3）是否包含了所有要点？所传递的信息是否准确？
（4）措辞是否简明、准确、礼貌？
（5）语言是否自然、真诚？
（6）是否做到从对方角度出发，体谅对方？

求职信通常是你与潜在雇主最早的书面联系，会给人留下重要的第一印象。写求职信时应首先解释为什么要发送此信，比如，你想获得暑期实习的机会或毕业时的固定职位或询问未来就业的可能性。然后具体讲述你是如何了解这个职位或组织的———通过公司传单、网站或是在职朋友介绍等。
同时要展示你的各种背景要素———教育背景，领导能力，工作经验———这些都与你所寻求的职位有关。尽可能地举例说明。还应反映你的态度、个性、动机、热情和沟通技巧。
提及在招聘广告中特别要求的信息，比如可面试日期，最后指出你将如何跟进。在求职信中，求职者经常会说“我很期待你的回信”，不过，最好还是主动跟进，说“我会在未来两周内与你联系，看看你是否需要有关我资历的其他信息”。为了有效，你的求职信应遵循典型商业信函的基本格式，并应解决以下三个问题：
第一段：你为什么写作，即写作目的。
中间段落：你能或你要提供什么。
最后一段：你将如何跟进。
范文
Dear Mr. ××× :
I am interested in the position in your company as a part-time accounting assistant. I feel that my academic background and my work experience qualify me for this position. （写作目的）

招聘广告告知读者所需的工作岗位，它应该包含有关如何申请这份工作的信息以及获得这份工作是否需要经验和/或这份工作需要怎样的教育背景。同时，招聘广告可能还会提供有关工资、工作时间和福利的信息。广告越长，费用就越高。因此，招聘广告需要简洁明了。例如：
