A note is a form of a letter. There are two common forms: leaving a note and leaving a message. Compared with ordinary letters, it is characterized by simple format and short content.

I. Leave (written leave request)

The leave instructions mentioned here include sick leave instructions, personal leave instructions and extended leave instructions. When writing a leave note, you should pay attention to writing clearly the reason and time of leave, and fully explain the reasons for leave. If there is evidence to prove the reason, such as a doctor's certificate, it is best to attach it to the article.

Second, leave a message (left side of the message)

Message boards are widely used, mostly my direct and short messages on a certain occasion, mostly among relatives, friends and acquaintances. The writing format, words and even address tone of the message note are simpler and more casual than the leave note. Generally speaking, you don't need to write the year and month, you can directly use the day of the week, or the month, day and hour instead. If used for acquaintances, call them by their first or last names and give them their first or last names. Here are some common information.

1. Notify the meeting to be postponed on Friday afternoon Dear Yang:

I just want to tell you that tomorrow's meeting has been postponed because of the lecture. Please inform other relevant personnel. Wang hai

Chapter Four: Practical Writing-Notes and Short Messages

Practical Writing-Notes (Notes) and Information

I. Overview

A note is also a form of letter. It is characterized by short content, mainly including temporary inquiry, message, notice, request and so on. Compared with formal letters, the language of notes is more colloquial. For example, to inform something, you just need to start like this: just one line to tell you? No, this is to inform you, like a formal letter? In addition, the opening notes are often omitted, such as "the key to the back door is under the mat" or "the key to the back door is under the mat." Instead of "the key to the back door is under the mat." .

There is no need for a closing ceremony at the end, just write the name of the person who wrote the note. If you are a close relative, you only need to write your last name or first name. The date of the note is usually written in the upper right corner. Generally, you can only write one day of the week or the morning or afternoon of the week, or you can write the specific time of the morning and afternoon. In daily application, it is also common to write the month and date. But generally do not write the year, because the contents of the note are mostly things to be done on the same day or in the near future. When writing a note, you must not prepare it in advance, so there is no fixed format, and most of it is handwritten.

Second, matters needing attention

1. Keep words concise and try to avoid social intercourse and various honorifics.

Don't be empty, you can't convey your meaning.

Three. Classification example

1) ask for leave

Example 1

Note: You are going to write a business leave note of about 100 words. Please describe this information clearly.

The reason why you asked for leave.

2) The time and time when you want to leave.

Class 4, Grade 3

August 22(nd)

Go to the department office

Secretary Li,

I'm sorry to apply for a ten-day holiday from August 23rd to September 3rd. I have to leave because time is tight. My father is in the hospital now, and he is very ill. I have to see him and take care of him for a few days. You know I'm the only child in the family. Of course, I will show you the telegram from my mother about my father's illness in support of my application.

As for the absence of classes during my absence, I promise I will try my best to make up for it when I return to campus. I hope to get your allowance.

with cap in hand

×××

* This article is a leave note. It is generally necessary to ask for leave from superiors or teachers. We usually use the phrase "ack for leave". We can take three days off before writing: please take three days off; ; Call in sick. Leave is a noun usage here. The phrase used in this paper is apply for, which means "application" and has a more solemn meaning. Often used in the written language of subordinates to superiors or younger generations to elders. "Only child" means "only child", which translates as "only child", and "only child" translates as "only child", just like concern. It is followed by a noun structure, which means "involving, as for", and the parties concerned agree that the two are interchangeable. Example 2

Direction: Your father is seriously ill and you want to go home. Write a note to the secretary, which should include.

1) Reasons for leaving;

2) Days: 16 to 21st;

3) Make up a lesson after returning to school.

July 5(th)

Dear Miss Huang:

My sister called me last night. She said my father was very ill. I request to take seven days off from 06 16 to 2 1 1 so that I can see my dear father.

I would appreciate it if you approved my application. As for the classes I missed while I was away, I will try my best to make up for them as soon as I get home. You are sincere,

×××

* This format is semi-indented, which was very popular in the past and is still in use now. I'd appreciate it if you would? This is a polite expression, meaning "What about the result?" I am very grateful. In English, "make up lessons" means to make up lessons. It means as soon as possible? Just ...

2) invitation

Example 1

Direction: You have a ticket for the Russian National Ballet, which is visiting, and you want to give it to your friend Alice. Write her a note and say:

1) The performance time,

2) where you have to wait for her

You should write about 100 words.

Sunday

Dear Alice:

Here is a piece of good news for you. The Russian National Ballet, which is visiting Beijing, will perform at the Beijing Grand Theatre tomorrow night. I'm sure you'll be happy to see it. I left you an admission card here. The performance will start at seven o'clock sharp. I'll wait for you at the gate of the theater. Please let me know whether you are prevented from coming.

×××

I invited a friend to the theatre, but my friend was waiting at home, so I had to leave a ticket and a note, but I was afraid that my friend could not come, so I specially wrote "If you can't come, please tell me" at the end of the note.

3) apologize

It is human nature to make mistakes. In social communication, people often have some negligence, fault and so on. If this happens, it will bring trouble and inconvenience to the other party. In order to avoid misunderstanding and not affect feelings, in this case, you should write to the other party to explain and ask for understanding.

Such a letter should be written in time, with sincere attitude and humble words. Generally, at the beginning of the letter, apologize or express guilt to the other party, then explain the reasons and propose remedial measures.

Example 1

Note: You missed a friend's appointment, and now you must write an apology letter of about 100 words.

May 20(th)

Dear Lily:

I'm sorry I couldn't see you yesterday. I know you must be disappointed. I also feel worried and anxious. The fact is, my manager asked me to prepare an emergency plan at the last minute, and I didn't have time to call you. I worked until about 8:30 pm yesterday. I'm terribly sorry.

However, I want to ask you out this weekend to make up for yesterday's regret. Please give me a chance, I am waiting for your reply.

×××

* If you can't keep the appointment for the time being, you must explain clearly, apologize sincerely, and it is best to make up. As said in this letter, invite each other to meet again this weekend (I want to ask you out this weekend). Pay attention to the usage of modal verbs in English sentences: modal verbs+perfect tense, indicating past behavior. You must have been very disappointed at that time.

Example 2

Description: You have received an invitation from a friend, but you already have some guests at home. Please use about 100 words to express the reason why you can't go.

6. April

Dear Lucy:

I'm sorry to have to post this letter on Saturday night.

When I accepted your invitation, I completely forgot that Saturday was a holiday and my own guests would not leave until Sunday morning. It's hard for me to make a choice. I really want to see you, too. I can't go out alone and leave the guests at home.

I hope you know how sorry I am not to be with you this Saturday. Should I visit you in other free time?

Thank you very much.

×××

* If there are guests at home, it is naturally inconvenient to accept others' invitation to be a guest, and you can explicitly refuse or make another appointment. English should emphasize predicate verbs and add auxiliary verbs, such as:
