怎样写好投诉信

安徽泗县一中 吴安运

◎文体概述

投诉信是对产品或服务表示不满的信件。当自己的正常生活受到打扰、自己的利益受到侵害时，我们可以用投诉信来表达不满并提出批评。投诉信的共同点就是希望收信人解决问题，所以信中需要提出解决方案。考试时，如果题目中没有给出解决方案，那么就要根据投诉内容提出自己的解决方案。

1.首段：说明所要投诉的问题，尽可能做到客观礼貌，给收信人留下好印象。

2.主体段落：写明投诉的原因、问题的经过及产生的后果。

3.结尾段：提出解决的方案。结尾段应体现书信的礼貌原则，可以用“如果你能……，我将十分感激！”等表达方式。

投诉信一般分为四个部分：①自我介绍；②投诉的内容；③投诉的原因；④阐明本人期待的解决方案。

注意：投诉信的重点是说明投诉的原因，叙事应客观、准确、简洁。最后提出的解决方案应切实可行。在表达自己的不满时要把握分寸，不失风度。同时，在描述问题时尽量采用被动句式，这样能够使描述更加客观。

【试题解读】

1.审题立意

该篇书面表达的命题属于投诉信（Letter of Complaint）。作为消费者，在人们的生活中经常会遇到一些令人伤脑筋的事情，比如消费利益受损、正常生活和工作受到干扰等，写封投诉信不仅可以寻求一个解决问题的办法还能引起公众对此类问题的关注。投诉信一般有以下几种类型：一种是向对方相关部门直接投诉，提出所希望的赔偿以及补救方式；还有一种是向上级主管部门提出投诉，期望对方行使管理监督职能；也有一种是向媒体曝光一些不良商家的商品或服务，希望引起公众的关注。

一封投诉信通常包括以下几个方面的内容：

首先进行简单的自我介绍；然后总体说明投诉的原因并表示遗憾；接下来分两到三点实事求是地阐述问题发生的经过；再指出问题产生的后果；最后提出批评及处理的意见或敦促对方采取措施，比如提出所希望的赔偿以及补救方式，最好设定解决问题的最后期限。

2.写作要点

（1）简短的寒暄和导入；

（2）简要说明投诉的问题；

（3）描述事情发生的具体过程与相关细节；

（4）描述这件事情给自己带来的不便与困扰；

（5）期待获得对方的关注及帮助；

（6）提出一个可行的解决方案，比如所希望的赔偿或者其他补救方式。

3.注意事项

（1）注意写投诉信时要用事实和证据说话，态度礼貌，语气冷静，不搞人身攻击。

（2）注意阐述问题发生的经过时要实事求是，不要夸大其词。

（3）在描述问题时尽量采用被动句式，这样能使描述更加客观合理。

亮点分析：本篇习作开头便给了读者很强的“视觉冲击力”。文章一开头便给了阅卷老师好感，这是考场作文之道的首要之道；在语言的表达上，选词新颖，文字简练，时态把握准确，同时运用了定语从句、主语从句、非谓语等较好的句式或短语使文章层次分明；从内容上看文章充实而丰富，思路清晰，而且详略得当，有的要点详细叙述，有些内容简略带过，这使得整体阐述连贯而富于变化。不愧是一篇优秀习作。

①此处用一个句子交代清楚了投诉主题，从总体上概括了事情发生的时间、地点及其原因。

小贴士此句还可以这样表达：

The reason why I complain is that I'm dissatisfied with the quality of the books that I ordered on the Internet last week.

②此句Unfortunately的使用非常生动形象地刻画出了作为消费者对所购商品失望的心情。

③该处在描述问题时采用被动句式，使描述客观合理，显示了投诉人实事求是的态度。

④现在分词短语做结果状语在英语语法中属于较难掌握的语法结构，此处用得漂亮得体。

⑤高级词汇circumstances的出现更加给阅卷老师留下了好印象。

⑥此处exchange them for new ones和 declare a refund两个短语言简意赅，没有废话。

【佳作赏析2】

Dear Sir or Madame，

I am a middle school student.I am writing to express my dissatisfaction and disappointment about the unpleasant experience.

Two weeks ago，I bought several textbooks on the Internet.When I got the books，problems have emerged.For one thing，the quality was far from satisfactory①，because there're so many broken and missing pages； for another， the books were overpriced.I learned from one of my classmates that I could had more discounts if I had bought the same books in the bookstore②.

I am writing this letter to share what I experienced with more people and I also want to arouse the public's awareness③.It's urgent for government to impose some relevant laws to regulate this market④.

I would be grateful if you could take my opinion into consideration.Yours sincerely，Li Hua

亮点分析：本文的结构十分明晰，主体部分分为两段，前一段描述个人经历，后一段将个人损失上升到引起公众对一个社会问题的关注的高度上。在句式使用上，用法多样，熟练而准确，其中虚拟语气的运用十分出彩。 更难能可贵的是作者审视话题准确，确定主题有深度，巧妙地运用主题、有自己的独特认识和见解，能将视野由个人损失投向社会，呼吁公众的关注。

①此处the quality was far from satisfactory是一个语言非常地道的概括性句子，为下文的叙述做好铺垫。

②和过去的事实相反的虚拟条件句的运用很巧妙地暴露出商家的问题和消费者的损失。

③此句在内容上将个人损失上升到引起公众对一个社会问题的关注的高度上。

④此处It's urgent for sb to do中用It作形式主语，不定式作真正主语的句式不落俗套。

小贴士 此句还可以这样表达：It's high time that government should impose some relevant laws to regulate this market.
