BEC中级写作看似是BEC中级考试中较为简单的一项,但实际上也要多下工夫才能拿高分,尤其对于不以英语为母语的中国考生来说,平时不多加练习很有可能在考试时“挤牙膏”般写生硬的句子。
题目:
You work for a company which is going to buy a set of equipment from China. You are asked to translate a lot of specifications and instructions within four months, which is impossible. therefor you decide to advertise for two experienced translators as soon as possible.
. Write a short note to Mr. Max Remington ,the Public Relation's manager. Ask for an advertisement for two translators. . Explain the reason. . Mention your urgency. . Write 30-40 words on your Answer Sheet.
讲解:
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。 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
