1、考研英语写作书信类作文格式范文作者2010年考研英语写作应用文冲刺讲义UNIT 文体类型一 信函英文书信主要分为两大类：私人信函和公务信函。私人信函是指与朋友、家人之间的往来书信，其内容比较自由，只需包括以下几部分即可：称呼、正文、落款;公务信函类型多样，应用范围非常广泛，属于正式文体。此类信函的共同特点是：1 内容明确，不可漫无目标;2 言辞诚恳、坦然，不能感情夸张;3 语言清晰、简洁、有礼。从形式上侧重考查公务信函，因为只有此类信函才需要用到书面语的正式语体。二 备忘录备忘录主要用于公司或部门内部的交流，其主要作用是为雇员传达信息，本公司或部门之外的人一般是看不到的。备忘录一般使用非正式文
