考研资料加油站 /600962783/?checked=true 在考研英语的Part A 小作文部分，书信作为考查的重点所在，种类繁多。在前面我们曾就以题目为例，详细地解析过前12种书信：即建议信、投诉信、咨询信、感谢信、祝贺信、道歉信、慰问信、申请信、求职信、推荐信、介绍信和辞职信的写作方法及其注意事项。今天本文就对考研英语小作文中的第十三种书信——邀请信——进行深入的分析。

邀请信，英文中称为letter of invitation，一般来说是邀请收信人参加本方举办的某项活动的信件。写作时语言应热情诚挚，但不可强人所难。

一般来说，在考研英语中，邀请信主体部分的写作可按照三个步骤进行，即“三步走”策略。接下来就以题目为例，具体解析一下这个策略。

例题：

Directions：

Write an email to Professor Benson in your university, inviting him to attend the graduation ceremony of this June. You should include the details you think necessary.

You should write about 100 words on ANSWER SHEET 2.

Do not sign your own name at the end of the letter. Use “Li Ming” instead. Do not write the address.

题目所给的规定情景是要求你向本校的外教本森教授写一封信，邀请他参加今年六月份即将举行的毕业典礼。

根据上面所提的邀请信写作“三步走”策略，具体操作如下：

首段：It gives me great pleasure to invite you to attend our graduation ceremony on June 30th in the Shane Hall in our university.

在邀请信中，“三步走”策略中的第一步是要表明写信目的，即委婉地向收信人发出邀请。用到的英语句型自然是应该非常礼貌的。此外，邀请信一般是邀请别人参加某项活动，因此还须在后面简要介绍活动的时间地点等。

中段：The occasion will start at 3:00 p.m.. And in virtue of your rich experience as a human resources manager, we would like to invite you to make a ten-minute speech to give our students encouragement and suggestions for their future work. 中公考研

考研资料加油站 /600962783/?checked=true 在邀请信中，表明了目的之后，接下来第二段的主要内容就是向对方解释邀请他/她的主要原因以及对方需在活动中做些什么了。但是在这之前，作为一名合格的活动组织者，还需考虑到各种细节问题，其中最为重要的就是要告知对方活动的具体时间点，以防出现时间偏差，影响整个活动的顺利进行。

尾段：Please inform me of your decision before June 25th. We would be particular honored by your distinguished presence at the ceremony and look forward to hearing from you.

本段中，紧接前面内容，向对方解释完原因和具体邀请内容之后，就要询问对方的意见了。收件人能否应邀到来严重关系到整场活动的规划安排。其次，邀请信的最后一步，当然还是要向对方表示自己期待其到来的美好愿望了。

在考研英语的书信表达中，类似的首段或尾段的套用句式比较丰富，大家需要在复习过程中进行有意的积累，并在写作中加以运用：

1. We would like to extend to you an invitation to...

2. It is with great pleasure that I invite you to attend...

3. We should be very grateful if you could ??.

4. Please let me know your decision in your earliest convenience.

5. Please confirm your participation at your earliest convenience.

因此完整范文如下：

Dear Mr. Benson,

It gives me great pleasure to invite you to attend our graduation ceremony on June 30th in the Shane Hall in our university.

The occasion will start at 3:00 p.m.. And in virtue of your rich experience as a human resources manager, we would like to invite you to make a ten-minute speech to give our students encouragement and suggestions for their future work.

Please inform me of your decision before June 25th. We would be particular honored by your distinguished presence at the ceremony and look forward to hearing from you.

9. 便笺写作:note

?便笺，即便条，与书信大致相似，但区别有三：

?1.便笺较随便，因此语气通常更轻松，格式和语言都是如此。

?2.通常便笺较短，这意味着须略去冗余信息。便笺应言简意赅。

?3.便笺更具个性化：更接近口语，如有必要，语言可以更直接，可使用行话。

Directions:

One of your professors announces in class he requires a research assistant during the summer. While you are unable to take the job, your good friend Alex would be perfect for it. Write him a note persuading him to go for the interview.

二、考纲要求的其他类型的应用文：１.备忘录(Memorandum)

?备忘录即办公室便笺(interoffice

Memorandum，简称Memo)，是当今商务机构中使用最多的文件。与信函不同，便笺主要用于机关或公司内部，故不用地址，不需要信末礼节性的结束语。

?备忘录的构成：

1)收阅人(To…)：一般不需加Mr., Miss, Dr…等称呼，如收阅人职务高，正式场合通常要加上如(Vice) President一类的称呼。如收阅人多，可采用：To: Publication Committee/ To: See Below(把收阅人名字列在便笺末尾)

2)撰写人(From…)：一般不加头衔，如果公司人员多，可注明撰写人所在的部门。如：From: Paula C. Salle, Customer Relations.

3)日期：注明定函的具体时间(年、月、日)。

4)事由：通常用名词词组表示。告诉读者此文件的主要内容。

5)文档编号：可有可无。

6)正文(Body)：该项与信件的正文类似，如收阅人只有一个，可在正文前加上“Dear…”。如不只一个则不加。

7)签名：亲笔署上自己的全名。

?注：一般备忘录，只要把收件人、发件人、日期和主题表示出来即可。

?写备忘录，第一句就交待写备忘录的目的回复对方备忘录时要标明对方备忘录的时间。要着重于重要论点，简明扼要，每件事情另起一段。力求准确，不能歧义。备忘录最后要用一句概括的话强调收件人对备忘录的内容尽快做出反应。
