商務英語寫作主要是涉及商業部分的，所以寫作是特別的重要，本內容由本站小編為大家帶來的，歡迎大家學習!
寫作部分
BEC HIGHER寫作部分主要涉及商業信函和圖表寫作兩部分的內容，現具體介紹如下：
商業信函
第一章 格式問題
1. 格式問題：
請同學們在BEC的寫作中採用平頭式的寫法。
收信人的姓名和地址置於信紙的左上方
地址、稱呼和結束禮詞後沒有標點符號
日期在右上方
段落從定格開始，段落之間的行距為兩行(但在考試中由於受答題卡限制，請同學們酌情考慮)
寫信人的名字和頭銜在簽名下方
2. 稱呼和結束禮詞的注意事項：
稱呼的寫法遵循下列原則：
Dear Sir or Madam 寫信給某一公司，不確定具體的收信人
Dear Sir 對男士，但是你不知道他的具體姓名
Dear Madam 對女士，但是你不知道他的具體姓名
Dear Mr Smith 對男士
Dear Ms Smith 對已婚或未婚的女士
Dear Mrs Smith 對已婚女士
Dear Miss Smith 對未婚女士
Dear John (此處John 為英語中常用男名) 對朋友或你比較熟悉的人(通常為多年生意夥伴)
稱呼與結束禮詞存在對應的關係，請同學們特別注意：
Dear Sir or Madam Yours faithfully
Dear Mr/Ms/Mrs/Miss Smith Yours sincerely
Dear John Bestwishes
以下均為錯誤用法：
Dear Mr John
Dear Mr John Smith
3. 日期：
在英國英語中，天在前，但是在美國英語中，月份在前。所以某些特別的時期容易引起誤解。例如：12 06 2003
在英國指的是：6月21日
在美國指的是：12月6日
因此日期要寫成：12 June 2003
註釋：在bec考試中同學們可以採用恩波所推薦的用法。但是12 06 2003 的用法仍然是可以使用的，因為bec為英版考試。
在使用恩波推薦的用法時，要記住月份使用大些字母開頭。天后不必寫th、rd、nd或者st。
第二章 寫法問題
預備參加bec考試的同學們由於缺乏商務寫作的實際經驗，對於寫作部分都比較鬱悶。恩波結合歷年考試實際，為大家準備了15類共計50個經典的實戰句型，供大家在考場上使用。我們對每一個句型都模擬了一種環境：
