Step 5: 信函写作7C原则
1. 导入:老师先给学生看一封建立业务关系的信函范例,给学生3分钟时间来
读懂并试着分析,这封商务信函有什么特点,
学生回答问题。
预测:学生的回答是不完整的,老师指出其所说的是正确的,但是不仅
仅是这些特点,具有有哪些特点,老师先卖个关子,告诉学生在接下来的学习中
将会发现外贸函电更多的特点。
2. 7C原则的进一步学习(备注:教师在讲解完每一个原则所包含的涵义后,结
合前面所给出的范例信函,来分析其特点。)
1. Completeness (完整)
A business communication should include all the necessary information. It is essential to check the message carefully before it is sent out to see that
all the matters are discussed, and all the questions are answered. Business letters should avoid incompleteness.
2. Concreteness (具体)
Concreteness means making the message specific, definite and vivid. Business letters should avoid being too general. In general letters,
everything seems to be mentioned but actually few are fully expounded. You should use specific facts and figures, vivid and image-building words.
3. Clearness/Clarity (清楚)
Make sure that your letter is so clear that it cannot be misunderstood. A
point that is ambiguous in a letter will cause trouble to both sides, and further exchange of letters for explanation will become inevitable, thus time will be lost. You must try to express yourself clearly. To achieve this, you should keep in mind the purpose of your letter and use appropriate words in correct sentence structure to fully convey your meaning. When you are sure about what you want to say, say it in plain, simple words. Short, familiar, conversational and straight-forward English is what is
needed for business letters.
4. Conciseness (简洁,简明)
Conciseness is often considered to be the most important writing principle. It means saying things in the fewest possible words. To achieve this, try to avoid wordiness or redundancy. Clearness and Conciseness often go
hand-in-hand and the elimination of wordy business jargon can help to make a letter clearer and at the same time more concise. A concise letter is not necessarily a short one. Sometimes a letter dealing perhaps with a multiplicity of matters cannot avoid being long. Generally speaking, you
will gain in clearness and conciseness by writing short sentences rather than long ones. A letter can be made clearer, easier to read and more attractive to look at by writing short sentences and careful paragraphing. One paragraph for one point is a good rule.
5. Courtesy (礼貌)
Courtesy is not mere politeness. It is like a favorable introduction card. The courteous writer should be sincere and tactful, thoughtful and appreciative. You need to prepare every message with the readers in mind and try to put yourself into their places. If conciseness conflicts with courtesy, make a little sacrifice of conciseness. Promptness is one of the most important things in being courteous. Punctuality will please your customer who dislikes waiting a long time for a reply.
6. Consideration (体谅)
Before you go on to the detailed structure of the business letter there is one general principle, on which the native English writers lay great emphasis, that is, the “you” attitude. “You-attitude” is not so simple as only to
use “you” instead of “I” or “we”. In your letters you should always
keep in mind the persons you are writing to, try to see things from their points of view, visualize them in their surroundings, see their problems and difficulties and express your ideas in terms of their experience.
“You-attitude” can help to avoid an awkward situation, and promote
cooperation between the trade parties.
7. Correctness (正确)
Business letters must be correct, otherwise they may be misunderstood and run the risk of reaching nowhere or going astray. Correctness means
appropriate and grammatically correct language (without spelling or typographical errors) and factual information that is accurate with reliable figures such as names of articles, specifications, quantity, price and units.
