什么是“非正式”书信?
When looking at the task, the first thing we need to decide is whether the letter should be ‘formal’ or ‘informal’. It is critical to make the right decision, as it will greatly influence the TONE and STYLE you use in your letter.
审题审三遍,下笔如有神。把握好G类书信语气的步,就是要弄清写信的要求和背景,以便使用相应的语气。
Here we will focus on ‘informal’ letters.
Informal letters will be written to friends, family members, and possibly acquaintances, depending on the situation.
Generally, the letter should be relaxed, or intimate, and use colloquial phrases that would be used when talking to a friend, in other words, your letter would be similar in language to that used in a conversation.
在非正式书信中,经常用缩写,比如:
I am = I’m
Did not = didn’t
I will = I’ll
I have = I’ve
It has been = It’s been
It is = it’s
It would be = it’d be
