二.商务信函翻译
I. Dear Sirs,
We have carefully studied your letter of Dec.14th. As our two firms have done bus in ess with each other for so many years, we should like grant your request to lower the prices of our un derwear. But there are difficulties. Our cost of raw materials has rise n sharply in the past three mon ths and to reduce prices by 5% you men ti oned could not be done without con siderably loweri ng our sta ndards of quality. This is someth ing we are not prepared to do. I nstead of 5% reducti on on un derwear , we suggest a reducti on of 3% on all li nes. On orders of this size we could man age to make the reducti on without loweri ng our sta ndards.
We hope you will agree to our coun ter-suggesti on and we look forward to receivi ng orders from you as in the past.
Yours truly, 敬启者，
我们仔细研究了闺房12月14日来函。我们两家公司有业务往来多年，我们本该同意贵公司降低内衣价格的要求，但困难不少。在过
去三个月内原料成本上升很快，若按贵公司所提减价5%，很难不大
大影响产品质量标准，而这是我公司所不愿采取的做法。我们建议所
有货价减少3%，而不是5%。这样做将不会因减价而影响产品质量。
希望贵公司接受我们的返盘，并一如既往寄来订单。
