论文摘要: 随着科学经济的发展,以及中国加入世界贸易组织的飞速变化,中国的对外贸易和相应的随之而来的经济活动、技术活动、文化交流越来越成为国家关注的焦点,不但许多中国人到海外发展贸易经济,而且许多外国人也来到中国考察参观试图在中国幅员辽阔的土地上发展其事业。因此,无论是从直接还是间接的程度上,我们国人和外国人的交流和沟通、贸易往来的机会也接踵而来。而在与外国人交流往来的过程中,作为国际交流的载体,商务英语写作已广泛应用于日常生活和常规工作的方方面面,尤其表现在公共关系、信息、表达思想、交流感受和社会商务方面。由此可见,对于那些从事外贸活动的人们来说,很好的掌握商务英语写作的语言特点及写作技巧是外贸活动中首当其冲的关键。商务英语写作并不需要华丽的辞藻,因为它本身并不是文学著作,但是它所要表达的观点必须以一种平实的、清晰的、不易产生歧义的语言而展现出来,不但要引人入胜,而且要说服读者信任你所陈述的观点。
