在进行写作的最后一步之前,我们还有个重要问题:页面的layout。 Final Exercise: Business Letter Layout You're about to learn something important about the layout of a business letter. You need to know this before you can begin the fifth stage of the Writing Process. The layout - or format1 - of a business letter refers to its design. The layout affects the way the words of the document are placed on a page. There are a number of different layout styles. HSBC uses the full-blocked style. In the full-blocked style, all parts of the letter start at the left margin2. As a result, it's easy to type and easy to read. It is one of the most common styles used in business today. Writers and readers both like it. HSBC also uses open punctuation3. In open punctuation, no punctuation is used in l the reader's address l the salutation (Dear...) l the complimentary4 close (eg Yours sincerely). Whenever you write a business letter, you should use the full-blocked style with open punctuation... like the letter below.
