专四便条作文
专四作文写作技巧——如何写好英文便条
英文书信有正式与非正式之分,英文便条为非正式书信。
TEM4把写便条(note~writing)列入必考项目之一,其目的是按照要求,测试英语专业学生在基础阶段末用英语书面表达思想的能力。便条成绩在TEM4笔试成绩中虽只占10%,却如同一面镜子,能反映出学生英语书面交际的能力。有关英文便条写作,国内外学者多有论述。学者们认为,便条是一种简短信函,多使用非正式语体,它的形式比一般书信简单。例如,写便条的人与收便条的人的地址、称呼中“Dear'一词、日期中的年份以及结尾套语(complimentary close,亦称结束语),都可以省去;便条正文篇幅可小至一、两句话。可是,TEM4便条写作而言,并不完全像以上说的那样,它有一定的限制。
