洪荒之力是什么意思-交通安全小儿歌
便条(Notes)
便条是一种简单的书信,我们有事请要告诉别人或委托别
人办理而不能面谈
时,就可以被他们写个便条,便条内容简短,大多是临时性的询问、留言、要求
等,往往只是一两句话。便条的种类有请假条、留言条、借条、收条等。
语言特点
便条篇幅短,语言简单扼要,语体通俗口语化。
格式
便条的书写格式基本上都包括以下几个部分:
1)日期(Date):日期写在右上角。
2)称呼(Salutation):称呼可以正式(如Dear Mr. White),
也可以随便些(如
Dear Peter)。
3)正文(Text):正文写明要留言的内容
,但语言要简单扼要,通俗口语化,把
事情说清楚就行。
4)署名(Signature):
署名部分写上留条人的姓名,写在右下角。如果是很熟
悉的人,只要写上名就可以了,如John,Ka
te等,也可以写上全名,如John
Smith
1请假条(Notes
Asking for Leave)
请假条应写明收条人的姓名。正文中,开头应清楚地写明请假的
原因、时间、
并为请假可能引起的不便表示歉意。最后表达你对对方准予请假的愿望。
请假条可分为病假条(Asking for Sick Leave)和事假条(Asking
for Business

3 借条(Note Form of
I.O.U.)
借条通常是指我们借用款项或物品时写的条据。
在书写上,借条的时间应该较为具体,应包括年、月、日。称呼一般会写 To……
(物
品或款项的主人),如To Computer Department 或 To Mr.
Zhang Min 等。 正文中的关键信
息,如向谁、借了什么东西、数量多少、归还期限等,也应
该具体明确。语言要简明扼要。
署名部分应署借款或借物人的全名,如果是公事,可以加注借款或借物人
所在单位。
借款性质一般分为定期和不定期偿还两种。
没有偿还日期的借条书写较为简单。在抬头下一行写明借款的数量,开头写上I.O.U.
就
可以了(I.O.U.也可以写作IOU,是I owe you
的缩写,相当于中文的“今借到”)。写明定
期偿还得借条(Promissory
Note)文中可以不写I.O.U.,但要写清楚偿还日期,末尾即款项
后面往往加上“for
value received”,意思是“….整”,这样写表示慎重。如果想要说明借款
用途,可在
钱物后面加上“for”。

收条(Receipt)
收条是指接受款项或物品时所写的条据。收条的写法和借条大致相同。收条的
日期也应
该具体到年、月、日,
但收条不必写称呼,可直接写明收到的具体内容。收条常以“Received
from….”或“Received of….”开头,相当于中文“今收到….”,
信息应该具体准确. 如果
是公事,署名部分也可以写明收款或收物人所在单位。
