Note Writing,英语便条写作
英语实用文体写作系列 4便条

Unit 4便条(Short Note)一、写作技巧便条(Short Note),或称便签或便笺,是一种简单的书信。
便条是对比较熟悉的人的留言,虽然内容简单,但却有其独特的风格。
主要目的是为了尽快的把最新的信息、通知、要求或者活动的时间、地点转告给对方。
常见的便条有收条、欠条、留言和请假条等。
便条写作(Note Writing)实际上与书信写作(Letter Writing)大致相似,但有三点主要不同:1. 便条较随便,因此语气通常更轻松,格式和语言都是如此。
2. 通常便条较短,应言简意赅,这意味着你必须略去冗余信息。
便条写起来往往更具个性化,通常语言更接近口语,更直接。
具体说来,有以下特点:便条可以有题目,也可以省略题目。
便条开篇须有称呼语,但称呼可以比较随便。
日期部分可写在便条的右上角。
日期的签署通常只需写星期几或星期几的上午、下午,也可只写上午或下午和具体时间。
只写日期也可以。
便条结尾须署上留条人的姓名,位置在正文的右下角。
便条的形式和内容简洁,故可以用几句话概括。
文内语言尽量通俗口语化,简单扼要,直截了当,无需使用客套语言(In a roundabout way )。
便条虽简单,但中心务必突出,更要注明活动的时间及地点。
便条不需邮寄,不用信封。
通常请人代为转交。
有时可写在留言板和留言簿上。
基本写作格式便条内容和类型不尽相同,可以灵活变通。
但各类便条必须包括以下几个基本要素:1)Date:便条日期;2)Salutation:称呼;3)Body:正文;4)Signature:署名。
注意月份的全拼及缩略形式。
月份的缩略形式为:Jan., Feb., Mar., Apr., May,June, July, Aug., Sept., Oct., Nov., Dec.。
二、经典范文(一)收据(receipt)收据种类很多,有收条、借据、订阅单、订货单等,是在跟对方发生钱和物的关系时写给对方作为凭据的条子,起书面证据作用。

便条信英语作文Title: Writing a Note in English。
Writing a note, whether it's a friendly message, a reminder, or a formal communication, is a valuable skill in English. A well-crafted note can convey your message effectively and leave a positive impression on the recipient. In this essay, we will explore the elements of writing a note in English and provide examples toillustrate each point.1. Identify the Purpose: Before writing your note, it's essential to identify the purpose. Are you expressing gratitude, extending an invitation, giving instructions, or conveying important information? Understanding the purpose will help you tailor your message accordingly.2. Start with a Greeting: Begin your note with an appropriate greeting based on your relationship with the recipient. For instance, "Dear [Name]," is suitable forformal notes, while "Hi [Name]," or "Hello [Name]," may be used for informal ones.3. Express the Main Message: Clearly express the main message of your note in a concise and polite manner. Use simple language and avoid ambiguity. For example:Thank you for your kind hospitality during my visit.I would like to invite you to dinner next Friday.Please remember to submit your report by the end of the week.4. Provide Additional Details: Depending on the nature of your note, you may need to provide additional details such as time, date, location, or any specific instructions. Organize the information logically to ensure clarity. For instance:The dinner will be held at my place at 7:00 PM.The meeting has been rescheduled to Monday at 10:00 AM in Conference Room A.Please find attached the documents you requested.5. Closing Remarks: Conclude your note with appropriate closing remarks that reflect the tone of your message.

notewriting范文

notewriting范文英文回答:Note writing is an essential skill that allows us to communicate effectively in various situations. Whether it's leaving a message for a colleague, expressing gratitude, or simply jotting down important information, note writing plays a crucial role in our daily lives. In this response, I will discuss the importance of note writing and provide examples to illustrate its significance.First and foremost, note writing is a convenient way to convey information concisely. In our fast-paced world, time is of the essence, and note writing allows us to quickly communicate important details without the need for lengthy conversations or explanations. For instance, if I need to remind my roommate to buy groceries, I can simply leave a note on the fridge with a list of items needed. This saves both of us time and ensures that the message is delivered accurately.Furthermore, note writing allows us to express our thoughts and emotions in a thoughtful manner. Sometimes, we may find it challenging to articulate our feelings verbally. In such cases, writing a note can provide a platform for us to express ourselves more effectively. For example, if I want to apologize to a friend for a misunderstanding, I can write a heartfelt note expressing my remorse and explaining my perspective. This allows me to carefully choose my words and ensure that my message is conveyed sincerely.In addition, note writing can serve as a documentation tool. When we jot down important information, such as meeting minutes or project updates, we create a written record that can be referred back to in the future. This is particularly useful in professional settings where accurate documentation is crucial. For instance, if I attend a team meeting and need to remember the action items discussed, I can take notes during the meeting and refer back to them later. This ensures that I don't miss any important details and helps me stay organized.中文回答:写便条是一项重要的技能,它使我们能够在各种情况下有效地进行沟通。
