福师《大学英语（2）》第八课 感谢信Leer of Thanks 　　感谢信属于个人信函，有时也会用于商务等正式场合。感谢信是用来对馈赠礼物或曾经得到某人的关怀、照顾和帮助表达感谢之情的信函，在西方国家用得比较普遍。与英美人士打交道，你会发现他们在许多场合都会写感谢信。当他们收到朋友馈赠的礼物，或在困难时得到别人的帮助，或出去旅行受到盛情款待，除了当面致谢，他们还会写信以表谢意。 　　感谢信的基本结构和内容如下。　　（1） 表达谢意，并点明原因。 　　（2） 具体说明对该事件或礼物的想法和感激之情。 　　（3） 再次表达谢意。 　　在写感谢信时一定要注意以下几点。　　（1）一定要提及感谢的具体原因和内容。例如，对朋友赠送礼物表示感谢的信，一定要提到所赠的礼物及自己对礼物的喜爱之情；又如因为曾在对方家里小住而写的感谢信，一定要提到在对方家里居住时候的感受。不要只写感谢的空话套话，而忽视了真正的理由。 　　（2）在感谢的同时也可以加上一些具体的感受，以强化感激之情。例如，如果收到的礼物是相册，你可以提及你不久前拍了一组照片，收到相册真是太及时了；再如住院时收到鲜花，可以说每天看着鲜花，神清气爽，心情顿时变得愉悦起来。 　　（3）一定要写得真诚，表达诚挚的感激之情，不能给人一种草率的印象。 　　（4）如果有必要，可以用回赠礼物的方式具体表达谢意。 　　表达谢意常用的句型如下。　　Thank you very much for ...十分感谢…… 　　Many thanks for your ... 非常感谢您…… 　　Please accept my sincere appreciaon for ... 请接受我对……真挚的感谢。　　I am truly grateful to you for ... 为了……，我真心感激您。 　　It was good (though$ul) of you ... 承蒙好意（关心）…… 　　You were so kind to send ... 承蒙好意送来…… 　　Thank you again for your wonderful hospitality and I am looking forward to seeing you soon. 再次感谢您的盛情款待，并期待不久后见到您。 　　I 'nd an ordinary “thank-you” enrely inadequate to tell you how much ... 我觉得一般的感谢的字眼完全不足以表达我对您多么地……　　I sincerely appreciate ... 我衷心地感谢……　　I wish to express my profound appreciaon for ... 我对……深表谢意。 　　Many thanks for your generous cooperaon. 十分感谢您的合作。 　　以下是两封感谢信，第一封属于个人信函，第二封是感谢外国政府机构的热情款待，属于对外商务函件。两封信的信头和信内地址都已省略。 Sample 1 Dear Mr. Marn,　　How are things going with you in Beijing?
