1.Explain7Cs principles in writing business letter.-Clarity is the most important characteristic of good business writing.It means conveying your message to the recipient without being misunderstood.-Considerateness means sharing your reader’s point of view and keeping your reader’s needs in mind.Considerateness mainly lies in“you-attitude”.-Courtesy is more than politeness.A good business letter should be positive,friendly, sincere and tactful.Subjunctive mood is often used to give a polite request.-Completeness implies sending complete information to the recipient.-Conciseness is to make your point brief and clear.The message you convey is as short as possible while being complete.-Concreteness is to make the message specific,definite and vivid.It is important especially when we write contracts,agreements,notices,advertisements and business letters like inquiries and offers.-Correctness refers not only to correct usage of grammar,punctuation and spelling, but also to standard language,proper statement,accurate figures and the correct understanding of commercial jargons.2.What are the main channels for a new firm to establish business relation?1)Internet2)Attendance at trade fairs and exhibitions held at home and abroad(are traditional but the most constantly used channels for merchants to approach each other).3)Banks4)Commercial Counselor’s Office5)Chambers of Commerce both at home and abroad6)Trade Directory7)Advertisements8)Mutual visits by trade delegations and groups,etc.3.Give a brief description of negotiation procedure of foreign trade.As we all know,no customers,no business.Therefore,companies must try by allmeans to seek for new connections-First,establishing business relations is required,which may involve writing self-introduction letter that includes the firm’s basic information,advantages,business scope,etc.-Second,it comes to inquires that fall into two categories:business inquires and status inquires.-Third,it will be offers and counter-offers.An offer is a proposal by sellers to buyers in order to enter into a contract.A counter-offer is virtually a partial rejection of the original offer and also a counter proposal initiated by the buyer or the offeree.-Finally,two parties will sign the contract.4.Explain the main terms of payment in international trade and their application.·L/C,collection and remittance are three major modes of payment.1)L/C is a reliable and safe method of payment facilitating trade with unknown buyers and giving protection to both sellers and buyers.The disadvantage of L/C is the cost.L/C is usually used for large sum.2)托收是出口商（债权人）为向国外进口商（债务人）收取货款，开具汇票委托出口地银行通过其在进口地银行的联行或代理行向进口商收款的结算方式。

外贸英语函电考试复习资料 写信人：新路华贸易有限公司地址：中国上海，兴达路999号金星大厦（Golden Star Mansion)33层收信人：James Brown &Sons,由日用品部（Daily Articles Dept）办理地址：#304-310 Jalan Street, Toronto, Canada日期：2000年6月30日内容：感谢你6月15日的来函和样品。
特告知，我方客户对你样品的试用结果非常满意，但现在仍有些犹豫。
经与同类货物作仔细比较，我们发现你方报价有点高。
当前的洗发（Shampoo）市场充斥着各种各样的品牌，象Rejoice, Pond's等优质产品很容易买到。
而且这些品牌都已得到我地市场的认可。
就洗发精而言，很多消费者不愿接受新产品。
你方产品作为新品牌，最大的卖点将是它的护发功能，质量上虽然已达到客户要求，但要想在我地市场打开销路，必须还要具备价格优势，否则是很难与一些老牌产品竞争的。
鉴于此，我方客户建议将原报价减10%。
请考虑并作及时答复。

In terms of shampoo. many consumers are reluctant to accept newproducts. As a new brand. the biggest selling point of your product will be its hair carefunction. Although its quality has already measured up to our customers` requirements. itstill needs price advantage in order to open up a market here. Otherwise it can hardlycompete against the established brands.In view of this our customers request you to reduce your original price by 10%. Pleaseconsider this and give us a prompt reply.Yours faithfully(Signed)纽约ABC贸易有限公司敬启者：你方3月21日来函收到，从中我们遗憾地得悉你方认为我124号货定价偏高。
你们也许知道，我们的商品在许多国家都深受欢迎。
尽管目前供应有限，需求却在增加。
如果将我们的商品与其它商品加以比较，相信你方会同意我们的价格是可行的。
实际上，我们已将价格降至最低，并按此与其他买方大量成交。
如果你们同意将订货数量增至5，000箱，我们愿意将原报价再削减2%。
这是我们能做的最大限度，希望你们能接受。
如蒙早复，不胜感激。
