3、建议信 Letter of Advice
建议信是对收信人就某一问题提出看法、建议或忠告。建议信不同于投诉信，所以写信人一定要注意礼貌当先。建议信一般包括以下内容：首先说明写信的目的，其次，在肯定优点的基础上提出自己的建议或看法（否则别人以为你在投诉，而不是在提建议），最后表达希望采纳建议。

写作“三步走”：
自我介绍、说明目的—>委婉地提出建议及改进措施，或提出忠告—>礼貌地总结或期盼回复

Tips:
提建议毕竟不是投诉，所以语言一定要委婉、礼貌，顾及他人感情。在提出缺点之前，最好先肯定其优点

As a student of this university, I would like to take the opportunity to express my appreciation for your kind assistance as always. Meanwhile, I feel that it would be beneficial to express my views concerning the quality of the library service.

Write a letter to the president of your college about the unpleasant conditions of the university dormitory, and suggesting possible solutions

范文：
Dear Sir,

As I am a freshman, I feel that it is my obligation to make some suggestions concerning the basic conditions of our dormitory.

Generally speaking, the dormitory building situates in a satisfying environment and is well-equipped. However, there are two unpleasant aspects that cause inconvenience to us: 1) the heating system is in need of improvement—it fails to maintain warmth in our rooms during the winter; 2) the furniture is not designed in a practical manner –there lacks a shelf to place books.

I would be more than happy if my proposal could be considered and positive changes take place in these regards.

　　　　　　 Yours sincerely,

　　　　　　 Li Ming

尊敬的校长：

作为本校的一名大一新生，我觉得就学生宿舍条件提出一些建议是我应有的责任。

总的来说，我们的宿舍楼环境良好、设备齐全。但是，仍然存在一些不尽人意的方面，给我们的生活带来了不便：1、冬天室内暖气不足，供暖系统需要进一步改进；2、家具设计不合理，没有供我们放书的书架。

如果您能够考虑我的这些建议并使学校在以上方面做出改进，我将感激不尽。

　　　　　　 您真诚的，

　　　　　　 李明
