要点突破-投诉信 Complaint Letter
VOCABULARY FOR POLITELY COMPLAINING AND SUGGESTING
应用文写作核心模式:R A P= Reason+ Action+ Polite
· Reason – Introduce why you are writing. 背景、目的及主旨
· Action – Tell them what you need them to do. 内容、意义及影响
· Polite close – Thank them and say goodbye. 礼貌性结尾
写作要点:● Describe what is wrong ● Suggest a solution
写作角度:事+人(邀请,告知,申请,咨询,建议,推荐,报道,感谢,欢迎,道歉,投诉等)/ 人-事-物
It is important that you do not sound too angry or aggressive in your letter, so you should use some polite vocabulary for issuing complaints. This can sound direct but it should not be offensive.
