Writing—
Recommending cultural highlights
Writing recommending cultural highlights is actually writing a letter of recommendation.
写推荐文化亮点的文章实际上就是写推荐信;推荐信遵循电子邮件的格式。
文体分析
电子邮件(electronic mail,常缩略为e mail,E mail或email)
属应用文体。它用途广泛,传递快捷,可以一件多发。
而且费用十分低廉,特别适合国际间的交流。
什么是电子邮件?
(1)收件人地址
(2)主题
(3)称呼
(4)正文
(5)客套语
电子邮件的组成部分是什么?
(1)收件人地址:
在标题栏的 “收件人(To)”框中输入收件人的E mail 地址。
(2)主题:
“主题(Subject)”框的内容应简明地概括邮件的内容。短的可以是一个单词,如greeting;长的可以是一个名词性
短语,也可以是完整的句子。
Writing guidance
(3)称呼:
E mail一般使用非正式的文体,因此正文前的称呼通常无需使用诸如Dear Mr George 之类的表达。在同辈的亲朋好友或同事间可以直呼其名,如:Hi John,但对长辈或上级最好使用头衔并使用姓。如Dear Doctor Lee。
Writing guidance
(4)正文:
写E mail和写英文书信一样,注意以下两点:
a:首先要明确写给谁。不同的收件人,语气不同。写给朋友的可用一些俚语或缩写语言,但正式的邮件就不能用俚语或缩写词语。
b:写电子邮件要直接,并多用短句使意思清楚。对于根据提示来写的电子邮件,必须将要点写全,并注意语言的运用。
(5)结尾客套语:
结尾客套语通常也很简明。常用Thanks,Best,Cheers,Sincerely yours,Best regards 等。
Writing guidance
正文通常包括三段。
1.开头段:
说明写作意图,并说明推荐人与被推荐人之间的关系;
2.主体段:说明推荐原因,并介绍被推荐人的一些情况,如学习经历、工作经历、个人性格特点等;
3.结尾段:表示感谢和期待,也可表明会提供更多信息。
推荐信的结构
敲黑板喽:
1.第二段为写作重点,要进行适当拓展,要注意思路清晰和要点之间的独立性;
2.要合理利用衔接成分,用词要得体,语气要恰当;
3.另外,写作中还可以套用英文推荐信的一些惯用句式。
