Letter writing尽管当今的科技发展已经将我们带进了数字时代,我们的日常生活也越来越离不开电话和互联网等先进的通讯方式,但是我们仍旧经常需要用书信来传达信息、表达情感。
在现代商务领域里,书信同样也是一种不可取代的沟通方式。
比如,当一家公司向另一家公司订购某种商品时,习惯的做法是在正式成交之前用书面的形式加以确认。
另外,在许多情况下,如果你只用口头形式来传达信息就会显得很不正式,也很没有礼貌。
比如,当你想要邀请某人在一个非常重要的场合做演讲时,口头的通知或邀请都会显得你没有诚意。
这时人们往往会想到用书信的形式来邀请对方,这样做就得体多了。
由此可见人类在沟通情感以及进行生意往来时,都是需要书信作桥梁的。
一封信是由信头、日期、编号、收信人情况、称呼、正文、主题、结束语、写信人签名、姓名和职位等几个主要部分构成的。
---请同时参看Unit 2b Arranging a company visit1. Writer’s address or company letterhead: at the top or in the top right-hand corner. The writer’s n ame is not at the top of the letter. 信头: 在信的顶端或右上角,写信人的姓名不留在信头部分。
一封信的信头包括写信人所在公司的名称、地址、邮政编码以及联系方式等。
如果一封信是以个人名义写的,那么写信人可以省略公司名称这一项,只要写上他的住址和联系方式就可以了。
2.Date:on the right. Various forms of the date are possible.日期: 在信纸的右端。
日期的写法可以采取多种形式。
实际上,在很多正式信件中日期的位置是很灵活的。
它既可以出现在写信人地址的下面(信的右端);也可以出现在收信人地址的上面(信的左端);还可以出现在收信人地址的下面(信的左端)。
