感谢信是用于致谢他人的馈赠、款待、帮助,需写明感谢他人的理由,信文要感情真挚,措辞得体。感谢信一般分为三个部分:

第一段:表达感谢之情并说明原因;

第二段:细述并赞赏对方给予的帮助;

第三段:再次阐述谢意并表达回报愿望。

【写作指导】

1. 有序组织要点

首先,应当友善地对对方的生活表示关心;其次,应明确陈述写信的目的,即致谢;然后,应肯定对方的帮助恰当好处;最后,应对对方给予的帮助再次表示感谢并传达良好的祝愿。

2. 灵活把握时态

感谢信的正文中的时态灵活多变。通常,在提到对方曾经所给予的帮助时,应用过去时态;在提到对方的帮助所产生的实际效果时,可以使用现在完成时态;在涉及到现状时,应用一般现在时;在表达祝愿或希望时,使用一般将来时态。

3. 运用规范的语言

感谢信有其自身的特色语言,在行文的每一个环节也有一些常用句型。另外表示从对方的帮助中获益时,可以使用多种句型进行表达,要让句式灵活多样,这样更能增强表达效果。

4. 表达感激之情

感谢信的主要目的在于向对方致谢,因此语言要诚挚,友善;在信的开头和结尾部分一般会使用 Thank you very much for your kindness and deep concerned; Thanks again and wish you all the best之类的语言来表达感激之情。
