便条(NOTES)

Dear liu,

I have something important to tell you, please call me at 8 tonight.

Wang

<分析> 这是一张通俗的信息便条，Wang 有重要的事情要告诉Liu ,希望Liu与

自己联系。该便条很明显没有写作时间和结束语。前面我们提到过单纯的通俗信

息与感谢信息的传递不须注明写作时间，若非注不可，也就是即日，即收笺的那

一日。

首句 I have?句式表明“我”有一些，很自然地，明确地引出信息内

容。使用了有说服力的词如：important,tell 等，突出表明了信息的重要性。

四、练习

请以 Judy 的名义给 Jane 写一张便条，请 Jane 尽快把其工作计划告诉

Judy。

Dear Jane,

Please inform me as soon as possible your working plan. Thanks.

Judy

通知(Notice)

一、题型分析

英文通知的格式与中文通知格式大体相同，这一点考生容易把握。其

内容简单，具体，要求写明具体事项，以便告知相关人员。

二、应试技巧

1.注意中，英通知的细微差别

和中文通知一样，英文通知由标题，正文，落款（或时间）三部分组成。

标题写在正文上方正中的部位，常以Notice作标题。落款既发出通知的单位和

时间写在正文右下角，有时发出通知的单位可以省略，时间也可写在单位名称下

一行的左下角。

2.书写正文时要注意的几点

（1）内容要简洁，清楚。例如，会议通知要写清时间，地点，出席人员，必要

时还可以写明会议内容。

（2）多采用被动语态 ，人称用第三人称。如： a. All the students of the Computer Department are required to

meet? b. A lecture on linguistics will be given by Professor Xiao ?

（3）为了能引起广泛的注意，正文起首常以“ATTENTION”字样或以

“Attention please”开头。如：

ATTENTION, A visit to?

（4）放假通知应写明放假天数及收假日期。如：

a. Tomorrow being National Day, there will be no work for seven

days.

b. Work will be resumed on Oct. 8.

三、范文

Sample 1

通知

请学生会所有成员星期天晚七点半（三月十五日）到会议室开会，商讨有关

运动会事宜。

请假条（Asking for Sick Leave or Business Leave）

一、题型分析

在应用文能力考试中，请假条因篇幅短小，格式、内容较为容易掌握，

故相对于推荐信、申请信等篇幅较长的应用文而言，其得分率要高，且该类型的

应用文要求文体正式、语言得体，尤其是用礼貌的语言向领导讲述请假的理由。

二、应试技巧

1.了解请假条的基本情况（内容）

请假条是便条的一种，主要用于因病或因重要事情向领导请示批准某一

特定时间的假。根据其请假理由的不同，可把请假条分为病假条和事假条两种。

但不管是那一种都应包括以下四部分内容：

(1) 日期

日期通常应在正文右上角，因请假条涉及到的是最近时间内的事情，故

可直接用几月，几日或星期几来表示，如 April 10 或 10 April 或 Thursday.

(2) 称呼

称呼常用常规信中的称呼语，如 Dear?, Mr ?, Professor ?, Dr ?

等.

(3) 正文

正文是请假条的核心部分，主要涉及到请假原因，请假时间，结尾时需

用一些表示感谢或请求批准的话语。切记理由要充分，在必要是应附上相应的证

明。

(4) 结束语的署名

结束语常用 yours faithfully 或 yours sincerely 或 yours truly

等。

三、范文 （事假条）

April 25

Dear Mr. Frick,

As my brother is moving to Canada tomorrow, I shall be very much obliged if you will grant me my application for one day’s leave tomorrow.

Yours respectfully,

Robin Ford

April 15, at 8:00 p.m. ?

I haven’t seen you for a long time and I’m looking forward to seeing

you soon.

Yours,

Lucy

以上是Lucy 写给 Peter 的一封共进晚餐的邀请信。由于是非正式场合，省略

了写信人地址，收信人姓名及地址，正文开头提出了邀请，并讲明了具体的时间，

地点 (on Sunday, April 15, at 8:00 p.m., my place )。最后表达了热切的

期盼之情(?looking forward to seeing you soon)。

Dear Lucy,

Thank you for your kind invitation to dinner at your place on Sunday,

以上是Peter 表示接受邀请而写的一封回信。正文开头对邀请表示感激，并确

认了时间，地点。接着明确表示乐意接受邀请 (I do accept it with great

pleasure)。最后表示了热切盼望那一天的到来。此信的关键是要写明接受邀请，

而不能出现 “I’ll accept if I’m free” 这类模棱两可的句子。

April 12, 2005

sorry that I have to decline it. I’ll visit my former teacher that day.
