要寫(xiě)出好的書(shū)面表達(dá)，對(duì)各種文體的熟悉是不可缺少的，便條是《PETS-2級(jí)考試大綱》規(guī)定的文體。

       便條：
       便條格式與書(shū)信類(lèi)似，但稱(chēng)呼不用加客套語(yǔ)dear,除非對(duì)年長(zhǎng)者，結(jié)尾直接署上自己的名字。
       請(qǐng)假條也屬便條范圍。
        典型例文1：(便條)
        Dear Mr Eric,
        I came to see you this morning but it so happened that you were out. So I have to leave this note to you.
        I’m so glad to tell you that after raining so many days, it is said to be fine this Sunday. Therefore some of my friends and I have decided to go for an outing. We’ll meet at the gate of the Forest Park at 8:30 a.m. Then we’ll go climbing and have some games. We’ll have a picnic. In the afternoon we’ll go boating in the river nearby. If possible, we’ll go to pick some wild fruits. I’m sure we’ll take some photos, too. Will you join us? We’ll be very happy if you will. Ring me up before 5 p.m., please.Yours,

         典型例文2：(請(qǐng)假條): Wang GangDear Mr. Du,I’m sorry to tell you that I can’t go to school today. I’ve caught a cold because I went swimming yesterday.
