如何寫好關注信

王立新

關注信（letter of concern）屬于應用文的范疇。關注信是作者就某一問題或一些現象，表達自己對事件的關心，并提出自己的一些看法和解決辦法。一封好的關注信分為三個部分：開頭、主體和結尾。

開頭：簡單介紹寫信的緣由。

主體：針對對方的問題（如生病等）進行有針對性的鼓勵和安慰，并適當提出自己的建議。注意語氣一定要委婉，能體現出自己對對方的關切之情。

結尾：簡潔的希望或祝福。

常用句式：

1. 開頭常用語

Im shocked / awfully sorry to hear that...

It was a great shock to hear that...

It broke my heart to hear that...

I just cant tell you how sad I was when I heard that...

I cant tell you how sorry I felt when I heard that...

I am writing to express my deep sympathy / care for you.

2. 主體常用語

I understand how you feel now.

I know the way you feel very well.

Youll always have a support in me.

Its true that attitude decides everything. So you should never give up no matter what happens.

Please let me / us know if there is anything I / we can do.

If I can be of any help， please dont hesitate to let me know.

3. 結尾常用語

Im looking forward to...

I hope our caring will help to comfort you.

I hope that time will take away the sorrow of your recent loss.

Remember that my heart and my thoughts are with you.
