内容要点围绕聚会展开，语言表达要礼貌、热情、简洁明了。

商务英语函电（课件+答案）李蕾I...习题答案Unit One Business Letter-Writing and Its LayoutPart Four: ExercisesI. Answer the following questions:1. Generally speaking, the functions of a business letter may be said to be:1) To ask for or to convey information;2) To deal with matters concerning negotiation of business;3) To confirm cables, telexes, telephones or face-to-face talks, especially importantones2. Because at present many business messages are sent by way of fax or e-mail, andthe language and the style used in fax and e-mail are quite similar to those used in the traditional letter, letter-writing is again considered quite important in our business activities, other than telexes or telegrams.3. An effective business letter requires of our writers good English and basicknowledge of international trade business.4. They are the basic principles of good business letters, which are commonly called “the seven C’s”, i.e. 1) Consideration; 2) Courtesy; 3) Clarity; 4) Conciseness; 5) Concreteness; 6) Correctness 7) Completeness.5. The “You-attitude” means that we should prepare every message with the reader inmind and try to put ourselves in his place. To put it more clearly, we should try to see things from his point of view, visualize him in his surroundings, see his problems and difficulties and express our ideas in terms of his experience.6. Conciseness means saying what you have to say in the fewest possible wordswithout losing clarity, courtesy, completeness and good English.7. They are the older/conventional indented style and the modern/fashionable blockedstyle.8. The features of the indented letter style are as follows:1) Each paragraph is indented four spaces.2) “Closed Punctuation” is used.3) The complimentary close is centered, and so is the signature.The features of the blocked letter style are as follows:1) All typing lines begin at the left margin.2) “Open Punctuation” is more often used than “Closed Punctuation”.3) At times the date is placed in its usual position on the right.9. There are seven basic parts in a business letter. They are: 1) the Letterhead, 2) theDate, 3) the Inside Name & Address, 4) the Salutation, 5) the Body (the Message), 6) the Complimentary Close, and 7) theSignature.10. The business letter must be dated. An undated letter has no legal force.11. 1) J. B. Peterson & Co.12. The first paragraph usually refers to previous correspondence; the paragraphs thatfollow will contain further details of the subject and the closing paragraph is a statement of your intentions, hopes or expectations concerning the next step.13. The “Identification Marks”means the initials of the signer of the letter and theinitials of the typist, it is usually typed at the lower left margin (two lines) below the typed name of the signer.14. We should have the “Enclosure Notation”on our stationery if we are to attachsomething to our letter since this notation is useful not only to those sending the mail but also to those receiving it. If the letter shows that there is an enclosure, the person folding the letter is reminded to include it and the person opening the letter can easily check to be sure that the enclosure is included. This is done also for filing purpose.15. The essential elements on our business envelope are: 1) the return address; 2) theoutside name and address; 3) the stamp.II. Multiple choice:1. B2. C3. A4.
