一、概述

备忘录是一种录以备忘的公文。在公文函件中,它的等级是比较低的,主要用来提醒、督促对方,或就某个问题提出自己的意见或看法。在业务上,它一般用来补充正式文件的不足。它的内容可以分为以下几项:

书端(Heading);

收文人的姓名、头衔、地址(Addressee‘s Name, Title, Address);

称呼(Salutation);

事因(Subject);

正文(Body);

结束语(Complimentary Close);

署名(Signature)。

二、注意事项

书端部分包括发文机关的名称、地址、发文日期,有的还包括电报挂号、电传号、电话号码等。许多机关有自己特制的信笺,在写书端时,其格式和标点符号的使用与一般信件的相同。收文人(或收文单位)的姓名、头衔、地址一项写在左上角编号处的下面,其格式与书信的写法相同。

称呼从左边顶格写起,对一般机关、团体的负责人一般用Dear Sir,对政府官员可用Sir.

“事因”一项目前采用得较少。它可放在称呼语之前,也可放在其后,前面可加Re或Docket, Subject.如果此项写在称呼语之前,多从左边的顶格写起;若放在称呼语之后,一般写在信笺正中。它多采用不完整的句子,只需很少几个词,甚至一个词,目的在于使收文人对文中的主要内容一目了然,便于及时处理。

正文、结束语和署名等项与一般信件的格式相同。

三、举例

例1

Directions: Write a memorandum of about 100 words to the student service department and ask them to fix a telephone for each dormitory.

MEMO

August 16,2004

To:The leader of student service department

From: Li Ming

Subject:Telephone

Dear Sir,

I would like to remind you that we are in want of a telephone for each dormitory. As a university student, we need to cope with the daily increasing communications with teachers, friends and people outside the campus.

We need a telephone to get and send message, which is important for us. Though most of us have mobile phones and e-mail address, a telephone in the dormitory is after all the most convenient and cheapest tool of communication. I hope that you will pay attention to this problem and solve it as soon as possible.

Regards.

Yours,

Li Ming

*“remind”一词用法比较多,可以在后面直接接人或宾格,如“提醒我”译为please remind me.如果提醒某人某事则用remind somebody of something,也可以在后面加从句,即“remind sb that”,remind还有一个意思为“使想起”同样用remind…of…的结构,应注意与提醒某事区分。
