BEC高級寫作材料

1、寫作部分BECHIGHER寫作部分主要涉及商業(yè)信函和圖表寫作兩部分的內(nèi)容，現(xiàn)具體介紹如下：商業(yè)信函第一章格式問題1 .格式問題：請同學(xué)們在BEC的寫作中采用平頭式的寫法。收信人的姓名和地址置于信紙的左上方地址、稱呼和結(jié)束禮詞后沒有標(biāo)點符號日期在右上方段落從定格開始，段落之間的行距為兩行（但在考試中由于受答題卡限制，請同學(xué)們酌情考慮）寫信人的名字和頭銜在簽名下方2 .稱呼和結(jié)束禮詞的注意事項：稱呼的寫法遵循下列原則：DearSirorMadam寫信給某一公司，不確定具體的收信人DearSir對男士，但是你不知道他的具體姓名DearMadam對女士，但是你不知道他的具體姓名DearMrSmith對

2、男士DearMsSmith對已婚或未婚的女士DearMrsSmith對已婚女士DearMissSmith對未婚女士DearJohn（此處John為英語中常用男名）對朋友或你比較熟悉的人（通常為多年生意伙伴）稱呼與結(jié)束禮詞存在對應(yīng)的關(guān)系，請同學(xué)們特別注意:DearSirorMadamYoursfaithfullyDearMr/Ms/Mrs/MissSmithYourssincerelyDearJohnBestwishes以下均為錯誤用法:DearMrJohnDearMrJohnSmith3 .日期：在英國英語中，天在前，但是在美國英語中，月份在前。所以某些特別的時期容易引起誤解。例如：12062

3、003在英國指的是：6月21日在美國指的是：12月6日因此日期要寫成：12June2003注釋：在bec考試中同學(xué)們可以采用恩波所推薦的用法。但是12062003的用法仍然是可以使用的，因為bec為英版考試。在使用恩波推薦的用法時，要記住月份使用大些字母開頭。天后不必寫th、rd、nd或者st第二章寫法問題預(yù)備參加bec考試的同學(xué)們由于缺乏商務(wù)寫作的實際經(jīng)驗，對于寫作部分都比較郁悶。恩波結(jié)合歷年考試實際，為大家準(zhǔn)備了15類共計50個經(jīng)典的實戰(zhàn)句型，供大家在考場上使用。我們對每一個句型都模擬了一種環(huán)境：1 .信件的開頭：WearewritingtoenquireaboutWearewriting
