1.英文拒绝邀请信 篇一
Dear Mr. Johnson,
We are terribly sorry that the repair of your cassette player is really beyond our reach. There are several reasons why we left your equipment unrepaired.
Firstly, our technician in charge of the cassette player had been several days off for serious flu, the delayed the handling of the equipment
Secondly, there is no parts found in the present market to replace the volume control which really needs repairing.
We have the ability to replace the onoff switch, however, the cost is too high to worth it, because you can use the amount of money to buy a new one.
Accoring to our survey, this type of equipment is manufactured in 985 and the manufacturer has gone out of business, so it is impossible for you to talk with them.
We are really sorry for our helplessness
Sincerely,
Mason
Manager
2.英文拒绝邀请信 篇二
关键词：拒绝邀请；言语行为；性别差异；面子
一、引言
言语行为的性别差异是一个非常复杂的课题。拒绝是一种非常普遍而又敏感的言语行为，它在实质上是不礼貌的，有时会让人感觉尴尬。性别不同，人们表达拒绝言语行为的方式也不同。在日常生活中，通常导致拒绝的言语行为包括邀请，提议，建议和请求，而本文主要探讨拒绝邀请言语行为。Brown和Levinson（1978）认为研究性别导致的拒绝言语行为差异是因为它是在人际交流中造成误解的主要来源之一。
拒绝邀请实际上是一种威胁对方面子的行为，因此被邀请者应当采取一定的礼貌策略，尽可能的维护邀请者的面子。目前，跨文化对比和社会语用是国内外拒绝策略研究的主要方面，性别导致的拒绝言语行为差异则很少研究。然而性别又分为同性和异性，本文主要探讨异性之间拒绝邀请言语行为的差异，以便我们更加了解异性之间的不同，更多的避免误解，使交流更加顺畅。
二、Brown和Levinson的面子理论
1978年，Brown和Levinson根据Goffman的理论提出了面子理论，该理论将面子定义为每一个社会成员想要获得的个人公众形象。面子分为积极面子和消极面子，积极面子指的是想让别人赞赏，理解，尊重的愿望，而消极面子指的是不被他人阻碍或干预的愿望。面子理论中，另一个主要概念是威胁面子的行为（FTA），FTA简单的说是指任何使面子处于危险的行为。Brown和Levinson认为面子威胁行为程度主要与社会距离、相关权势和强加级别相关。实际上，很多言语行为都会多多少少威胁到说话人的面子，因此，我们有必要掌握并合理使用一些礼貌策略来避免或降低对他人的威胁。
三、拒绝类型
国外学者Liao和Bresnahan（1994，1996）曾归纳出24种拒绝策略模式。但一些情况下，人们会采用直接拒绝的方式。本文主要借助四种拒绝类型：直接拒绝，间接拒绝，假托拒绝和模糊拒绝，分析对比两性之间拒绝言语行为差异。直接拒绝意味着对他人的邀请给出直接和简短的回答，在中国，势必会伤害邀请者的面子。间接拒绝是指人们不直接表达想法，而是绕圈子。假托拒绝表示在内心想接受，可是字面上做出否定的回答。模糊拒绝是指人们为了某个目的，用模糊的语言回绝对方。
四、研究方法
（一）研究目的
汉语中拒绝异性的邀请时，男性和女性使用拒绝策略的差异。
（二）研究对象
研究对象为华北理工大学外国语学院和电气工程学院40名大学三年级的学生，其中20名女生，20名男生，年龄在20-22岁之间。调查对象为同年级的学生，避免了社会距离和相关权势对调查结构的干扰。
（三）研究过程
将这40名大学生男女一组，随机分配成20组，给他们提供一些关于拒绝邀请言语行为的背景：比如邀请对方吃饭、看电影，邀请对方参加生日会，邀请对方参加某一活动等，要求被邀请者做出拒绝的回答。先是男生发出邀请，观察并记录女生的反应和回答，记录40个，再是女生发出邀请，观察并记录男生的反应与回答，同样记录40个。然后对这80个记录按照拒绝言语行为的四种类型归类。
（四）研究结果
根据对80个记录进行四种拒绝言语行为类型归类可以得出，异性之间使用直接拒绝类型差异最大，男性对女性邀请直接拒绝占27.5%，而女性对男性邀请直接拒绝占17.5%，在拒绝策略的使用上男性更直接。男性和女性拒绝对方的邀请也有相似性，就是他们都大多采用间接拒绝的策略，结果显示，男性拒绝女性占总记录的57.5%，女性拒绝男性占65%，面对别人的邀请，如果采用直接拒绝策略，势必会对邀请人的面子造成很大的威胁，为了尽可能的维护邀请人的面子，被邀请者经常采用间接拒绝策略，如说明理由或提供其他选择。测试中：男：今晚我们去看电影吧。女：我得复习考试。其他两种拒绝类型，假托拒绝和模糊拒绝相对前两种使用的较少，假托拒绝男生对女生的使用占12.5%，女生对男生占7.5%，这一数据说明，有些情况，双方还是愿意接受对方的邀请，只是碍于面子，先做出否定的回答。根据Brown和Levinsion的面子理论，邀请者发出邀请在一定程度上会威胁被邀请者的消极面子，而被邀请者拒绝邀请者会威胁邀请者的积极面子，在中国，发出邀请比接受邀请容易的多，如记录：女：明天来参加我们班举办的英语角活动吧！男：不了，英语不好怪不好意思的。女：那有啥不好意思的，参加的人很多呢！男：好吧。模糊拒绝女生相对比男生使用的要多，女生对男生的使用占10%，而男生对女生仅占2.5%，记录中，模糊拒绝回答是指对别人的邀请用模糊的语言比如，再说吧、一会，我们不知道再说吧是同意还是不同意。在中国，女生的特点是比较保守，面对邀请她们很多情况下不会立即答应，所以“再说吧”可能表示女生希望男生进一步邀请或者通过这种模糊的方式拒绝。
五、结语
通过研究，我们能了解到面对邀请，两性之间会采取何种拒绝策略，以及这些策略所反映的两性之间的巨大差异，从而更好的理解这种差异，减少误解。然而拒绝邀请言语行为的性别差异还受到都方面因素的影响，如文化、个性、交往方式的影响，因此这一研究也存在着很多不足，比如，研究范围是大学内的在校学生，不能延及社会各阶层，另外，观察法可能会导致一些学生有所准备，记录语料有些可能不是现实情景中发生的，因此这一课题有待进一步研究和完善。
