Features: The content of foreign trade activities is very extensive. In foreign trade, the English used is often employed in foreign trade activities, including general language for diplomatic activities, commercial language for trade business exchanges, legal language for contracts and agreements, promotional language for commercial advertisements, and so on. All of these fall within the scope of applied English in foreign trade, possessing its unique style, conventional formats, and specialized vocabulary and expressions. In terms of grammatical structure, there are also distinct characteristics. Only by correctly mastering the stylistic features, writing formats, and writing methods of various types of applied documents in foreign trade English can one use them appropriately in practical work and avoid errors in style and language. This book is divided into nine chapters, each with a Chinese content description and several common examples for reference. At the same time, according to the specific requirements of each chapter, it includes exercises on style, language, grammatical structure, and alternative expressions for the same content. Most of the examples in this book are based on actual cases from the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation and various foreign trade professional companies in their foreign business operations. Except for some modifications in country names, person names, place names, and time, the text has been edited, while the other content remains largely unchanged.
