教你如何写便条
便条是一种简单的书信，内容简短，大多是临时性的留言、要求等。人们在有急事需告诉某人而又不能面谈时，就可以写便条，如请假条、留言条等等。便条一般不写地址，与普通书信基本相同，具有用途广泛、形式简单、文字要求不严格的特点。便条都不用邮寄。
例一：请假条。写病假条时，如有医生出具的证明，最好一起附上。
Dear Mr. Pike，
I very much regret I was unable to attend school this morning owing to a severe attack of illness. I am enclosing here with a certificate from the doctor who is attending me, as he fears it will be several days before I am able to resume my study. I trust my enforced absence will not give you any serious inconvenience.
Sincerely yours Jack
亲爱的派克先生：
非常抱歉，我因今晨突然生病不能前来上课。现附上医生证明，医生担心我也许要几天后才能上课。希望我这次不得已而缺勤不会给您带来什么麻烦。
忠实于您的
杰克
例二：留言条。
可用于说明一件事、做一次活动安排以及询问等等，应直截了当。写留言条，日期部分写在右上角，一般只写星期几，或星期几上午、下午或具体钟点。
8:30 A. M.
Dear Peter，
I have done all my things here. I sincerely thank you for the trouble you have taken for my sake. I am leaving for home by train at two this afternoon. This is to say good-bye to you. Please kindly remember me to your wife.
Yours ever,
