慰问信(Letters of consolation)
一、题型分析
亲友生病、受伤或由于某种不幸事件蒙受了损失，应该写信表示慰问。考生在写作中应注意慰问信的格式和措词，如果情况并不严重或损失不大，慰问信可写得轻松一些；若是情况严重或损失惨重，就应该写得深沉一些。
总之，慰问信要格式正确，语言规范、简洁，感情真挚。
慰问信的写作在实用性文体中属中等难度的题型，考生得分一般在6-12分之间。最常见的错误是主题不突出，语言太罗嗦，或者欠规范。此外，考生往往忽略格式的写作，导致失分。 二、应试技巧 1．正确运用写作格式
由于慰问信通常是写给亲友的，彼此都较熟悉，其信内收信人地址、姓名、写信人地址及姓名均可以省略。所以慰问信的格式通常由日期(date)、称呼(salutation)、正文(body)、结束语(closing)及署名(signature)五部分组成。 2.恰当选用如下常见句型 (1)开头常用的有：
I was shocked／saddened／distressed／grieved to hear that? It was a great／profound shock to hear?
15
We have just heard／learned with profound sorrow／regret the sad tragic news(of)? I just can’t tell you how sad I am(to hear of)?
We want to offer our deepest?／May I express my most heartfelt sympathy at the loss of? (2)结尾常用的有：
Please accept our very sincere／heartfelt condolence／consolation in your great loss． We hope our caring will make your sorrow easier to bear． We hope that time will ease the sorrow of your recent loss． May our sympathy and consolation help to comfort you． Our thoughts are with you in this time of sorrow． May your memories be a source of comfort．
If we can be of any help，please don’t hesitate to let us know． 3．正文部分应注意的三个方面
(1)尊重对方的感情，表达慰问的主题。同情和慰问应该是发自内心的，而且要亲切、温暖、富于人情。
(2)语言要简洁。所要表达的感情是丰富而复杂的，但这些感情不一定全写进一封信中，应去掉那些冗长的颂词和伤感的话，对方已经很悲痛了，不要用更大的悲痛或与此无关事情的冗长解释来加重他的负担。比如用一两句话表达对收信人已故父亲的尊重与仰慕，点到为止。
(3)表示愿意提供帮助。这一点不一定适合所有的情况，但如果动机是诚恳的，而且确实能够做到，那么在信中表示愿意帮助无疑是一种最有效的安慰。 4．避免错误的文化迁移
中国学生受本族文化的影响，在写慰问信时往往发生错误的文化迁移，常使用类似这样的句子：\is nothing anyone can say at a time like this．”“Words cannot express our feelings．”或“We don’t know what to say at this time．”这类话是极不应该出现的，它们显得似乎有意拉长一个表达悲伤的简短句子，而在对方需要帮助时却又无能为力。 三、范文分析

My dear Margaret，
Today I heard of the passing away of your father，for whom I had the greatest admiration and regard．I know the suddenness of it must have been a dreadful shock，and I will miss your father，as you will．
