在写信时注意:
1. 每一封信都以热情愉悦的寒暄开头;2. 首先回复笔友上次在信提到的近况。3. 接下来简单提下你自己的近况;4. 分享最近你生活中发生的一些事情。5. 笔调乐观,欢快。6. 尽量控制信的长度,最好小坐一会就可以读完。7. 经过一段时间后,觉得对方彼此觉得舒服的时候,再互相写长的信笺或者Email;8. 注意控制私人信息。记住如果你一下子说了很多自己的私生活很容易吓跑一位新朋友哦;9. 避免有争议的话题 – 至少在友谊刚开始的时候;10. 要知道写信还是比写邮件要稍微正式的;11. 通信中做好你自己。你无须刻意包装,矫揉造作;12. 每封信结尾都有鼓励笔友回复的话语;(如“希望尽快得到你的消息”)
小窍门以及注意:
- 如果你手写信件,务必保证你的字迹清晰容易辨认;- 用深色的笔来写信,避免用浅色的铅笔;- 最迅速得回复你笔友的消息;- 不要透露过多私人信息给刚认识的笔友;
How to Practice Proper Pen Pal Etiquette
How to's
Step 1: Begin each message with a pleasant greeting.
Step 2Respond first to the news and information that your pen pal shared in his or her last message.
Step 3 Follow this with your own news briefing.
Step 4 Share information about the things that are going on in your life at the moment.
Step 5Keep your tone upbeat.
Step 6 Try to keep your letter short enough that it can be read in one sitting.
Step 7 Realize that over time, you and your pen pal may agree to write longer letters or e-mails as you become more comfortable.
Step 8 Pace the revelation of personal information. Remember that telling too much about your life too soon could scare away a new friend.
Step 9 Avoid controversial topics - at least in the beginning of your relationship.
Step 10 Understand that written letters are usually a bit more formal than e-mails.
Step 11Be yourself in your correspondence. Remember you don't need to impress anyone.
Step 12 End each letter with a note with encouragement for your pen pal to reply. ("I look forward to hearing from you soon" or something similar would be appropriate)
Tips& Warnings
- If you write a letter by hand, make an effort to keep your writing legible.
- Use dark ink that is easy to read. Try to avoid using a light pencil.
- Respond as promptly as you can to your pen pal's messages.
- Don't give out personal information to someone whom you've just begun writing.
