慰问信 （Notes of Sympathy on Illness, Injury and Material loss）
亲友生了病或受了伤，或由于火灾、水灾、被盗等不幸事件蒙受了损失，就应该写封信表示慰问。慰问信要写的真诚，要注意措辞。写慰问信时，一定要围绕一个中心，那就是使收信人从中得到安慰和鼓舞。

2. 慰问受伤的人（To Those Who Have Been Injured）
写给受伤的人的慰问信要尽量简短、中肯。信中不必查问事故是怎么发生的，是谁的过错，或有无见证人；而应表达你听到友人受伤后的难过心情，以及希望他不久就能痊愈等等。换言之，你关心的不是事故的前前后后，而应该是受伤者的身体和恢复情况。

Dear Tom,
I just can’t tell you how sorry I was to learn of your accident. Your family tells me that your are progressing nicely, and that you’ll be out of the hospital in about ten days, I’m certainly relieved to know that!
In the next day or so you’ll receive a little package from Margaret and me. I hope you like it, and that it will help to pass the time more pleasantly.
With every good wish for your swift recovery.
Sincerely,
Bob

亲爱的汤姆：
知道您受到意外伤害时，我简直难以形容我心中是多么难过。您的家人告诉我，您恢复得很好，再有十天左右的时间就可以出院了。听到这一情况后，我心中感到很宽慰。
在一两天内，您会收到玛格丽特和我寄给您的一小包东西，我希望您喜欢它，并希望它能帮助您更愉快地消遣时光。
衷心祝愿您尽快地恢复健康！
您真诚的
鲍勃

安慰友人考试落榜（To Those Who Could not Pass the Entrance Examination）
June 29, 2005
Dear Bill,
What shocking news to me when I was told by Mr. Lewis that you could not pass the entrance
examination. This means you have to wait for another year to attend the next entrance examination.
I quite understand how you feel now. Still you have many more chances to try. So I hope that you
will not take this to heart, and will get ready to try again. I am sure you will easily succeed next
time.
Yours,
Elizabeth

亲爱的比尔：
我在刘易斯先生那里获悉你入学考试落榜，深感惋惜。这意味着你要等待明年再考了。我
很能理解你目前的心境。但你仍有很多机会，所以希望你别太往心里去，做好下次考试的准
备。我深信你明年一定能获得成功。
你的
伊丽莎白
