With the publication of cohesion in English, cohesion hasbeen applied into various fields, which also sheds some light on the writing ofbusiness letters.

1.1 Research Background
众所周知，英语论文范文，商务信函在国际商业经济和贸易中发挥不可替代的影响。他们占了近90％的所有书面的的字母（林德塞尔 - 罗伯茨，1995年），因此，他们作为企业与客户保持关系，在各个领域的根本关系。没有商业信函，许多企业之间的商业活动将是不可能的。此外，由于英语作为一种国际语言，商务英语信函的重要性不能被忽视。As is known to all, business letters play an irreplaceable role in internationalbusiness economy and trade. They account for almost 90 percent of all written letters(Lindsell-Roberts, 1995), thus, they serve as a fundamental linkage for companies tokeep in touch with their customers in various areas.

They lay stress on grammatical mistakes whereasscarce attention is paid to the instruction of how to organize a complete and coherenttext in writing courses. Without systematic and effective instruction, Chinesestudents of English find it rather hard to construct an organized and coherent writtentext in English (Yang Yuchen & Wen Zhaoyun, 1994). When they set out to write an essay, difficulties at the discourse level occur, in which incoherence proves to be acommon problem. Coherence constitutes an important part in determining thewriting quality of an essay, and incoherence in part lies in the poor or inadequate useof cohesive devices.
Cohesion is conceptualized as a semantic concept, concerning the relations ofmeaning that exist within a text (Halliday & Hasan, 1976). Cohesion and cohesivedevices take an important effect in predisposing a reader to find a text coherent(Hoey, 2017). Without cohesion, coherence in a text is hard to achieve.
