2014考研英语:8种信函写作要点大总结

[复制链接]
发表于 2013-8-27 13:51 | 显示全部楼层 |阅读模式
  1.信的基本类型
! w& x, d% q5 w  英文书信主要分为两大类:私人信函和公务信函。私人信函是指与朋友、家人之间的往来书信,其内容比较自由,只需要包括以下几个部分即可:日期、称呼、正文、落款。公务信函类型多样,应用范围非常广泛,属正式文体,包括求职信、辞职信、拒聘信、询问信、复询信、留学和奖学金申请信、投诉信、答复赔偿信等。此类信件的共同特点是:1.内容明确,不可漫无目标;2.措辞诚恳,坦然,不能感情夸张;3.语言清晰、简洁、有礼。从形式上看应该侧重考查公务信函,因为只有此类信函才需用到书面语的正式语体。
9 U4 D9 d2 P8 ~  H# \1 o, V3 M  a  2.各类信函的内容要点1 O; Q, R' \+ f* z# ^. H7 J4 F
  以下主要针对公务信函,介绍几种常见信函的基本特点。对于其他不同功能的信件,考生可以根据本书的介绍做到举一反三。在备考阶段,考生应熟悉各类信函的书写模式及常用话语并加强练习。7 O0 X5 ]: o' ~. f# t7 Q7 }7 u/ H/ I7 r9 B  X
  (1)求职信(Letters of Applying for a Job)
: {$ {- b( L7 D" |0 N/ [  通常包含三个部分:a)引言部分写明写信原因、具体谋求的职大学考研位、获得申请信息的来源(如:报纸广告、熟人介绍)等。b)发展部分叙述自己能够胜任该职位所具备的条件,包括教育背景、工作经历、社会实践等。这部分内容要具体,不要空洞游说或者列举,用事实说服会更有力。C)结尾部分再次表达对职位的渴望,争取面试机会。如请求及时回信、希望当面洽谈、提供进一步接触的联系方式或指出附件中有相关的证明文件等。3 O+ q7 a# d! L7 m7 H5 n+ S
  求职信的语言应严谨、规范、得体。其常用套语有:
: Q  d3 {  r( T6 u  引言:I am writing to apply for the post of... advertised in...

  结尾:Enclosed are testimonials from my university teacher and my present employer.# o& J/ ?5 i$ J8 H4 M& A
  If these meet your requirements, please grant me an interview.
& i  V) W" ~& m  (2)辞职信(Letters of Resignation), L" t: B$ |4 I7 ^9 y3 d
  正式的辞职信应具备以下要素: a)受理者恰当的称呼; b)辞职决定及其理由(如:未受公司重用或尊重,健康、家庭或个人原因,另觅一份更适合自己的工作等); c)缓和气氛的语句,如对原单位所给予工作机会以及提供的工作经历表示感谢,对因自己辞职而给对方带来的不便表示歉意,表达对原单位的良好祝愿等等。- Q9 [- f. g/ w3 ^; b
  需要注意的是:避免负面评论。不论什么原因,不要对你的公司政策、老板、管理考研政治人员、同事做任何负面评价。
' x' M* l, ^) `: z! U  常用套语如下:
) g9 x. M, E: O  称呼:Dear Mr. Smith1 E! M3 O' J# e; i7 m0 L
  辞职决定和理由: With regret, I am writing to inform you about my decision to resign from my current position.

! x) D4 K' U" s$ Z  (3)留学和奖学金申请信(Letters of Applying for Admittance and Scholarship)$ U- ^; T4 ^, v! R" R3 k$ N- w4 O
  申请者是通过申请信争取继续学习和获得奖学金的机会,而申请学校负责人则是通过该信决定其是否具有这样的机会。因此这封信需要尽可能得表现写信人所具有的优势,比如个人性格优点,学业工作成绩等等。信的内容通常涉及:$ G+ c. N$ L: R' Z! G8 i" k
  a) 申请该学校/奖学金的原因;   ~8 R$ q9 O# L+ I, _  y
  b) 使你对某个专业产生兴趣的学术背景和训练; 4 ^+ e. m9 `. p7 {7 ]9 y. Z

  e) 未来职业计划。
' r! h8 H* T8 C* |  ?8 d  如果对方学校有要求,还应附上“个人简历”、学习成绩、研究成果的摘要等。" x. Y  S  i, \" \
  虽然申请信需要表现自己去争取机会,但其语言不应过于夸张,避免使用像excellent,remarkable,wonderful,great之类的形容词吹捧申请的学校或夸耀自己,而应自然而平实。其常用套语有:" [( L2 i% u/ L, L6 e6 X+ `

  询问信是请求对方提供需要信息的信件。可分三大部分:引言部分自我介绍并讲明询问目的。发展部分是询问的主要内容,如果包括多个方面,为了让对方一目了然,也便于回答,在内容的安排上应简明扼要,可以用数字列出具体问题,如first, second, third或1、2、3。结尾部分真诚地感谢对方。
" _7 u. ]6 z/ K7 h  由于询问有可能给对方带来麻烦,所以措辞要谦虚、诚恳。其常用套语有:
, h, a* c$ R9 A  引言:As a student at... university, I am preparing for... # |8 U5 _# M5 [( H3 r1 F% x
