雅思考试主要是通过对考生听、说、读、写四个方面英语能力的考核，综合测评考生的英语沟通运用能力，实现“沟通为本”的考试理念。对于雅思考生来说，也有很多考试难点和政策盲区需要帮助解答。今天雅思无忧网小编准备了文章雅思写作|用怎样的语气写书信才是正确的，希望通过文章来解决雅思考生这方面的疑难问题，敬请关注。

在雅思写作小作文这一项，遇到书信类的话题我们该用什么语气来写呢？谦恭、戏谑还是调侃？亦或者是照着模板来，谁管语气那么多事？今天老师来给大说说六类正确的书信写作语气。

1)投诉信

投诉信的收信对象可以是比较熟悉的人，如抱怨邻居宠物过于吵闹，也可以是针对公司甚至不熟悉的机构或者某个事件而写的，如对社区体育设施的拆除表达不满。

You heard that a sports center would be closed. Write a letter to the manager. In this letter, you should:

1. Tell how you heard about the news.

2. Say what your opinion is about it.

3. Explain how it impacts your life.

由于对象是某运动中心经理，措辞方面就应该较为礼貌，以下的词句是可以选取作为陈述问题的句型：

I am writing to you to complain about...

I am writing to express my dissatisfaction with...

There are some problems with … that I wish to bring to attention.

值得注意的是，也完全没有必要像公文那么正式，只要言语恰当就可以。在叙述问题时可以多以客观性描述为主，辅以主观的感受，显得更有说服力，如：

I found …

I feel quite disappointed that…

在结尾部分说明期望时，也可以搭配同样的语气：

I hope that the authorities concerned will consider my suggestions and improve the situation as best as they can.

I sincerely hope that it will review its management system, with the view to providing, better service to the public.

We trust that you will now consider this matter seriously and make an effort to prevent the recurrence of this kind.

如果是针对邻居再三出现的已经提醒过很多次的问题，我们可以措辞更为非正式一些，如I can hardly bear /tolerate /put up with it any more. 但也不意味着可以出现“guy”等过于口语风格化的语句。

2)工作申请信

G类考生许多都是有工作经验的人，或者曾经有过写工作申请的经历，由于收信人多是公司或者经理的人，言辞之间应该以正式语气为主：

I wish to apply for the position of…which you advertised in…

I am very interested in exploring the possibility of obtaining a position as … with your company.

结尾部分在阐述希望约见进行面时，也选取一些较为缓和语气的动词如“hope”来表达：

I am available for an interview every afternoon. Please contact me at…

I hope that after reviewing my enclosed resume you will kindly give me an interview so that I can elaborate on my studies and working experience.

I hope you would consider my application favorably and grant me an interview.

3)道歉信

这类信件的语气要视收信人是谁而定，但中有句老话说得好“礼多人不怪”，至始至终计划持一个歉意的态度是这类信件要注意的细节：

Your neighbors have recently written to you to complain about the noises from your flat/ house.

Write a letter to your neighbor. In your letter

1. explain the reasons for the noise

2. apologize

3. describe what action you will take

对方是熟识的邻居，即便如此，来自于写信人公寓的噪声对其干扰仍然是不可原谅的，对于对方的抱怨信，尽管我们可以选取熟络的语言来致歉，但语气和态度仍然需要诚恳，如

I am really sorry for the noises from my flat/house.

I hope you can accept my apologies.

I am trying to …

I promise…

这样的语句会让收信人觉得写信人是有诚意解决这件事情的，起到了积致歉的效果。

其他可供参考的语句有：

I am awfully/terribly sorry for what I have done.

I feel very guilty for what I have done to you.

I am afraid what I have done has caused many inconveniences to you.

Please accept my most cordial and humblest apologies for…once more.

I will try my utmost not to make such a stupid mistake again.

I am so sorry to have put you to so much trouble.

4)建议信

雅思分析认为，先考生们要分清楚建议信和抱怨信有着本质的区别，前者着重在于给出一些中肯的建议，语气是可以商榷沟通的，相对比较缓和，而抱怨信的目的是为了说明问题并得到对方的回复和解决，而且这一问题常常给写信人带来生活上较大的不便。建议信的重点在于在肯定原有成绩的基础上，尽量选取较为“乐观、积”的词语表达自己对信中所述问题的兴趣甚至是参与愿望。如：

I am delighted to learn …

In my point of view, it would be better to…

I am very interested in …

I am ready to offer the information needed.

请看下面这个例子：

You are a member of a sports club in an old building. Now all the members are asked to provide suggestions to the manager of the club about the improvement of the club building. Write a letter to offer some suggestions. In your letter, you should say:

1. Why the club is important to you?

2. What your suggestions are

3. What benefits the members can obtain after improvement.

写信人被要求向一体育俱乐部的经理提出俱乐部设施的升建议，一些有建设性的中肯建议再通过积参与的态度表现出来，会更容易被接纳。

5)感谢信

在写感谢信时，分清收信人尤为重要，本是亲密的多年好友，如果用词过于客气和庄重会让人觉得矫情，对于较为陌生的收信人，如下的表达就比较合适：

I take this opportunity to express to you my deep appreciation for the kind assistance you rendered me.

I wish there were a better word than “thanks” to express my appreciation for you generous help.

My appreciation to you for your generous help is beyond words. I wish I could repay it one day.

Please accept my most cordial thanks for your timely help, which I will always remember.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your kind help.

6)询问信
