1. Introduction
With China’s entrance to the WTO and the acceleration of economic integration process of the world, our foreign exchanges and cooperation are increasing dramatically in economy and culture. As the major language used in the international trade, business English plays a very important role in our foreign economic activities. The business English correspondence, one of the basic ways of communication, has become an essential medium in developing business, and establishing long, friendly and cooperative relations between enterprises and countries.
The business English correspondence is constantly changing with the rapid development and globalization of the information technology. Due to the wide use of faxes, emails and other media, business English letters become quick and convenient, without the restriction of time and place. Therefore, on the one hand, Chinese enterprises have more chances to establish contact with foreign trade companies all over the world and build business relations with them. On the other hand, the company can contact his partners at any time to solve problems timely so that they can keep good business relations between them. In brief, the business English correspondence is the bridge between the two parties in the foreign trade. Without it, the international trade will not work smoothly.
