求职英语:感谢信
Thanking Notes 感谢卡
陈豪在北京的ABC美国公司工作,他到美国同事Amy的办公室去找她。
(Office ambience)
C: Amy, 你有时间吗?
A: I can always make time for you, Chen Hao. What\s the matter?
C: 我有个客户,听说我搬家,专门送了我一幅画儿。
A: That doesn\t sound like a problem. It sounds more like a nice gesture.
C: 可是那画的颜色和风格跟我的公寓格格不入。
A: That\s too bad. He probably chose something he would like to have and didn\t consider your taste. I hope you thanked him for it anyway.
C: 我觉得也是,给别人买东西,应该买别人喜欢的才对。不过我还是打算发个电子邮件,谢谢他,但是不知道怎么写,所以来请教你。
A: Well, first of all, you shouldn\t use e-mail to thank someone for a gift. A proper note of gratitude should be handwritten.
C: 什么是 gra-ti-tude?
A: Gratitude is the same as thanks or appreciation.
C: 那一定要手写吗?
A: E-mail is impersonal and lacks warmth. The effort you make to show your gratitude should match the effort that your client expended in sending you the gift.
C: 我能不能买张现成的感谢卡,在上面加上一句,然后签个字呢?
A: I\m sorry, but that won\t do either. You need to demonstrate your good manners by composing a personal note in your own words on the appropriate stationery.
C: 你能陪我去买合适的卡片吗?
A: I don\t have time now. But let\s meet at the stationery store at noon.
MC: 中午,陈豪和Amy一起到卡片专卖店。
C: Amy, 这种可以折叠的感谢卡挺大方的。
A: They are acceptable, but not as classy as these correspondence cards that are made of heavier stock paper.
C: 噢,correspondence cards,就是回复卡。
A: You should order some with your name engraved across the top for future use.
C: 我说有时候收到别人的卡片,上面还有名字的缩写,原来是可以订做的呀。好,就买这个。不过我还是不知道怎么写。
A: It\s not so hard, and you don\t have to be dishonest.
C: 你启发启发我。
A: You can tell your client how much you appreciate his thoughtfulness and generosity in sending you a painting by this artist.
C: 有了。我就说“你怎么知道我家到处都是白墙的?画儿是我最需要的。”这样写,他也不知道我是不是喜欢那幅画。
A: And you have all the elements of a proper thank you note.
C: Amy, 你能再重复一下写感谢卡的注意事项吗?
A: A note of thanks is hand written on quality notepaper. It begins with a specific reference to the gift, remarks about its quality, why you appreciate it and how you will use it.
C: 这么说,其实也不难嘛。谢谢你,Amy.
