Sichuan, which leaves for Shanghai on October 28. s.s.=steamship 请注意：你9月15日所订200台机床将于明日由火车运往旧金山装 “四川号”轮。 该轮定于10月28日由此驶往上海。 2.

There is little likelihood of the goods unsold once this particular offer has lapsed. 以上实盘，本月底前复到我方有效。一旦本盘过期，货物可能即将售出。 2.

We ask you to protect the draft upon presentation. 发票随函寄上。我们将按约定通过本地银行向你开出这批船货的即期汇票。请见票即付。 二、语气文采特点及翻译要求 现代商贸信函一般措辞婉转，注重礼节，即使在表示不满或责询时也非常注意策略。翻译时应根据有关的业务背景，力求再现原文的语气和风格。此外，尽管现代商贸信函英语日趋口语化，但译文不宜使用口俗语，而应酌情使用汉语常用的公函套语，如，“贵（方、公司）”、“兹”、“谨”、“乞谅”、“收悉”、“见谅”、“为盼”等。 请按照上述要求，试将下列三例译成汉语 1. We should be obliged if you would let us have some names and addresses of likely importers of good standing from your customers, together with brief credit reports on them. 如蒙告知你们客户中你们认为可靠的进口商号的名称和地址，并附来他们的资信简报，将十分感激。 2.
