一、3篇英文邮件
1、如何写问询类邮件?
Subject: Quick question on a figure on the latest The Economist cover
Hi David,
I am a The Economist reader and have been amused and impressed by your cartoons. The fascination led me to your personal website and more of your works.
As usual, I enjoyed your caricature of the outgoing Silicon Vally entrepreneurs and delightfully discovered the skateboarder being Peter Thiel. Meanwhile, the identity of the bespectacled youth on the electric scooter has been bugging me for days. (I tried all the means imaginable to dig it out, but failed.)
I'd be great if you could tell me the name of the young guy. Thanks in advance.
Best regards from Beijing,
Justin
收到David 的回复邮件如下:
Hi Justin,
Thanks for your email.
I'm a wee bit embarrassed about this: I was asked by the The Economist to put Peter Thiel in the exodus, but all the others are just made-up characters. They don't represent anyone in particular, just the young entrepreneur geeks that might have once created garage starts-ups in Silicon Vally but are now prohibited by astronomic rising costs.
I'm so sorry you've spent time and energy on a fruitless quest-but it was lovely to get your email, and I thank you again for taking the trouble to track me down and ask. Much appreciated.
With all good wishes,
David

Hi David,
What a thrill to hear from you! Thank you.
I don't see it as a fruitless quest. Part of the pleasure of watching cartoons lies in the fun involved in figuring out certain details, whether intended or not by cartoonists. In this regard, it was a fun pursuit and I don't regret a bit the energy spent.
Thank you again. I look forward to more of your creativity.
Best,
Justin
2、如何写感谢类邮件?
Subject: A thank you note from OID Financial Submmit
Dear Dr. Chang,
Thank you very much for taking the time to join us last week at the OID Financial Submmit in Abu Dhabi, UAE.
Your keynote speech China's "One Belt One Road" Initiative: What are the Opportunities for MENA? was much appreciated and contributed to a highly successful event. I hope you found the post-speech discussion interesting and useful. Feekback from our attendees on your session has been very positive. Videos of all sessions have been uploaded to our official website and can be accessed any time.
Once again, thank you for joining us in Abu Dhabi, and I look forward to seeing you at future OID events.
Sincerely,
David Li
3、如何写邮件介绍朋友认识?
Subject: Introducing an American friend who is visiting Japan
Hi Yuka,
How are things? It's been quite a while since we met last time in Beijing.
I am writing because an American friend of mine named Peter is going to visit Tokyo for one week from Jaunary 20th. This is the first time for him to visit Japan. His Janpanese is minimal, but he is excited to learn more about local culture and get to know locals.
Once I heard his travel plan, you immediately came to mind. Your English is phenomenal, and you are always looking to expand your social network. So I was wondering whether you'd be interested in meeting up with Peter. You may meet for meal or coffee during his stay in Tokyo. Oh, by the way, Peter is from Boston, where you went to college.
Please drop me a line when you have time.
Best,
John
