　　Dear Mr Zhang，

　　We are told that you are head of your school. I am writing to you because we have a new type of recorder for sale and wonder if you would like to buy it.

　　The model is AW——501 and it was produced only one year ago. We would be happy to sell it to you for 560 yuan. That is the cheapest one of the same kind on sale.

　　If you are interested in it， please write to me at the above address. Could you suggest a time when it would suit you to visit us and try out the machine？

　　I look forward to hearing from you.

　　Yours truly，

　　Li Ming

　　Sales Manager

　　Dear Mr Li，

　　Thank you for your letter of Feb. 16. We are interested in your new type of recorder， AW——501. We plan to buy 10 sets of this type. But the price seems a little high. We wonder if you could cut down the price to ￥530 for each. If so， we would go and visit you on Feb. 26. Is the date suitable for you？ Please reply as soon as possible.

　　Yours truly，

　　Zhang Ying

　　「寫法指要」

　　1）盡琯這兩封信均沒有信內地址，但信頭卻都很齊全，屬於事務書信。特別正式的事務書信要求把信頭和信內地址都寫全，一般事務書信可以不寫信內地址。

　　2）事務書信是公司與公司，公司與機關團躰，公司或機關團躰對個人寫的書信，屬於正式的信件往來，所以要用正式文躰來寫。信文裡不能出現縮約形式。

　　3）寫英語事務書信時要開門見山，一開始就接觸主題內容，不能迂廻。廻信更應直接了儅地就來信中的內容答複對方。
