2.英文求职信写作知识点 篇二
关键词:主位,述位,主位推进模式,连贯
英文求职信在当代社会变得越来越重要了。由于求职信内容的复杂性,在一篇求职信中很少只使用一种主位推进模式,更多的情况是在一个语篇中使用多种主位推进模式。多种主位推进模式的混合交替使用可以使求职信的结构更加清晰,语篇的连贯性更强,重点更加突出,句式也会更丰富。
1 相关理论概述
布拉格学派的创始人Mathesius提出了主位和述位的概念:"The theme is starting point for the message.It is the ground from which the clause is taking off."(Halliday,M.A.K.,2000)。主述位理论描述的是在句子或段落之中作者或说话人意欲突出不同的信息或赋予重要性时一种信息安排考虑(刘辰诞,1999)。一般来讲,主位表示已知信息,述位表示新信息。F.Danes(1974)提出了“主位推进模式”的概念:他指出每个句子都有它自己的主位结构。单独一个句子有一个确定的主位和述位,因为没有语境,主位和述位都是孤立的,而且没有发展,但在一个语篇中,至少存在两个句子,它们的主位和述位都相互关联着,这种关联实际上就是推进。Danes提出了三种主要的主位推进模式:1)简单线性主位推进模式;2)连贯主位模式;3)派生主位模式。此后,很多著名学者都对主位推进模式进行了大量的研究,例如黄衍(1985),徐盛桓(1985),黄国文(1988),朱永生(1995)等。朱永生,严世清在总结了众多学者研究的基础上,提出了四种主位推进类型(朱永生,严世清2001):1)主位同一型(平行型或放射型):各个子句的主位相同,述位各不相同,T1→T2;2)述位同一型(集中型):前一句的述位和后一句的述位相同,R1→R2;3)直线延续型(梯形):前一句的述位或述位的一部份成为后一句的主位,R1→T2;4)交叉型:前一句的主位是后一句的述位,T1→R2。对篇章的主位推进模式的研究能够帮助我们准确了解语篇的思想内容,合适的主位推进模式能够增强文章的连贯性和逻辑性。
2 主述位理论在英文求职信中的应用
求职信是应用型文体,最重要的目的是在最短时间内给招聘方留下深刻的好的第一印象,求职信可以说是招聘者递给招聘方的第一张名片。求职信一般情况下分三个部分:开头、主体、结尾。开头部分是求职信的第一部分,因为招聘人员每天都要看大量的求职信,所以开头部分的内容必须能够吸引对方继续阅读下去,如果开头部分不能吸引招聘方,为了节省时间,招聘方就不会对信的主体部分感兴趣了。以下是一封求职信的开头部分(除去称呼),这名应聘者想应聘的职位是网页设计师:
1)Veronica laertes recommended I contact you regarding a design position with Studio di Roma.2)As a result of studying and teaching courses in Web page Design,your organization’s extensive public visibility has made a great impression on me.3)I was especially energized when Veronica showed me your innovative designs for young,previously unknown companies,such as the now famous Pastaio Uno chain restaurant.4)I want a role in Studio di Roma-with me as a team member,the studio can be even stronger tougher,and bigger.
这封求职信开头部分的主位(T)分别是:第一句T1:Veronica laertes;第二句T2:As a result of studying and teaching courses in Web page Design,your organization’s extensive public visibility第三句T3:I;第四句T4:I。各句子的其他部分则是述位部分(R)。学者们普遍认为,由于文章内容的复杂性,同一语篇中很少只使用一种推进模式,多数情况下都是多种推进模式混合使用,以达到表达文章思想的目的。此外,如胡壮麟所说(李孟君2011):后一句使用前一句的主位或述位,不一定要重复原来的词。上一句的主位或述位用作下一句的主位或述位,往往只取其中一部分语义内容。因此,第一句的述位部分"Studio di Roma"和第二句的主位部分"your organization"等值;第二句的述位"has made a great impression on me"和第三句的述位"was especially energized when Veronica showed me your innovative designs for young,previously unknown companies,such as the now famous Pastaio Uno chain restaurant"等值;正文开头部分的主位推进模式为:
开头部分使用了三种推进模式:第一句和第二句的推进模式类型是直线延续型,第二句和第三句的模式类型是述位同一型,第三句和第四句的模式类型是主位同一型。求职信开头的篇幅不应太长,内容应该充实丰富,有感染力,混合使用三种推进模式可以达到这个效果。第一句的主位"Veronica laertes"应该是求职者和招聘方都认识的人,也是求职者的推荐者,而且这位人士应该是招聘方比较重视的人,由这个主位引出述位的信息"recommended I contact you"(建议“我”和“您”联系)。这样的信息表述安排使招聘方加深了对求职者的印象,招聘方对求职者的印象是否深刻对于求职者求职是否成功非常重要。第一句的述位中的其中一个语义部分"Studio di Roma"成为了第二句的主位"your organization",即第二句的已知信息,新旧信息层层推进,使信的开头部分脉络非常清晰,并带出了下一个信息"has made a great impression on me"(使我印象深刻)。第二句的话题即阐述的核心是“使我印象深刻”,第三句继续补充说明第二句的核心话题。第三句通过已知信息"I"引出话题"was especially energized when Veronica showed me your innovative designs for young,previously unknown companies"(你们给著名的公司做的新颖设计使我十分兴奋)。这个述位再次强调了第二句的话题。这种推进模式能将招聘方的注意力吸引到“你们公司给我留下深刻印象”这个内容上。作者使用这种推进模式达到了其想向招聘方表达自己求职的强烈愿望的目的。第三句和第四句这两句通过双方共有的已知信息“I”引出作者的核心话题,求职信的写作目的突出展现在招聘方面前:"want a role in Studio di Roma"(想成为该公司工作室的设计师)。
第二部分是正文部分:
1)My experience at the University of Paris Art Departmen(T1)includes
Three years'teaching computer illustration as part-time faculty
Designing the University's Web Page
Recipient of the Most Creative Web Design Techniques Award given by University of Paris Art Department-selected from pool o134 applicants(R1).
2)Did you know(T2)40M Web Pages exist today,and it's an exploding arena(R2)?
3)Such gazelles as Mama Maria Semolina products,Euro Travel,and the recently publicized Bather's Choice(T3)began their first marketing successes on the World Wide Web(R3).
这个部分的主位推进模式是:
正文部分是自我推荐部分,也是求职信的核心部分。自我推荐部分能否打动招聘者决定了求职的成败,作者在正文部分都使用了集中型推进模式。第一句用已知信息"My experience at the University of Paris Art Department"(我在大学时的经验)带出了新信息,也是核心内容之一的"Designing the University's Web Page"(设计过大学的网页)和"Recipient of the Most Creative Web Design Techniques Award"(获得过网页设计奖)。此后的第二和第三句都使用集中型推进模式强调“网页”这个相同的新信息。第二句的述位部分“40M Web Pages exist today and it's an exploding arena”强调网页市场发展迅速,急需网页设计人才,突出自己专业的重要性;第三句的述位部分“began their first marketing successes on the World Wide Web”强调了网页对商业发展的重要性。这个自我推荐部分是非常成功的,作者没有仅仅局限于罗列自己的优势,作者还通过强调自身专业对社会的贡献来引起招聘者对自己的重视,这比传统的仅罗列自己的优点的方式更加有震撼力。
第三部分是结尾部分:
My design expertise(T1)has prepared me to do big jobs for the smaller companies you service(R1).I(T2)eagerly look forward to discussing how my diverse contributions and your successful designers can work toward stronger marketing with tougher technology to make Studio di Roma bigger profits and higher visibility(R2)I(T3)have some stronger,tougher,bigger ideas to show you!(R3)
这个部分的推进模式是:
结尾部分再次强调自己的求职决心,并强调自己能为公司做贡献,这个部分同样只用了集中型推进模式,目的是为了强调“我能为公司做贡献”。第一句的述位部分提出这个话题"do big jobs for the smaller companies you service"(能够为公司做巨大的贡献);第二句的述位部分强调第一句的新信息,并对此信息作了补充说明"make Studio di Roma bigger profits and higher visibility"(使这个设计室取得更大的利润和更高的知名度)。第三句的述位部分"have some stronger,tougher,bigger ideas to show you"再次强调第一句的话题部分“我有很多更强,更大,更好的主意提供给公司”。这种推进模式的使用产生了很好的自我推销效果,使招聘方充分了解自己的实力,促使求职者求职成功。
这封求职信语篇连贯,中心突出,句式丰富有趣,富有吸引力,是非常值得借鉴的。
3 结束语
求职信是非常实用的文体,对学生英文求职信的写作指导仅集中在词汇和语法方面是远远不够的。教师指导学生从整体上把握求职信的语篇发展规律,并运用主位推进模式理论来指导学生的求职信写作是提高学生英文求职信写作水平的有效方法。
