From: James Kennedy

To: Daniel Williams

Subject: The New Position

Dear Daniel,

I'm writing to inform you of your new position.

As is known to all, the assistant to the general manager of the personnel department handed in her resignation at the end of last month. So we are in urgent need of a successor to her. Here is good news for you. You have been chosen to take over as the new assistant by common consent at the meeting yesterday morning. Congratulations. I hope the new position will lead you to greater success.

You are supposed to report for duty in the personnel department at nine o'clock on Monday morning next week. The general manager will talk with you about your salary and routine duties then. As for your present position in the sales department, Jeremy Richardson will be the replacement for you. Maybe you would like to talk with him face to face before you are transferred to the new department.

Enclosed, please find Jeremy Richardson's resume.

Yours cordially,

James

主旨：新职位

亲爱的丹尼尔：

我写这封邮件，是想要把你的新职位告知你。

我们都知道，上个月月末，人事部的总经理助理递交了辞呈。因此，我们亟需寻找一位继任者。有个好消息要告诉你。在昨天早上的会议上，大家都一致同意选定你来继任新助理。祝贺你。希望新的职位可以让你取得更大的成功。

你要于下周一早上9点钟到人事部报到入职。届时，总经理会和你谈谈你的薪资和日常工作职责。至于你在销售部的现行职位，杰里米·理查森将会接手。在你调职到新部门工作之前，你也许会想要和他当面谈一谈。

随函附上吉里米·理查森的简历。

真诚的

詹姆斯

学以致用

1. You are supposed to report for duty in the personnel department at nine o'clock on Monday morning next week.

你要于下周一早上9点钟到人事部报到入职。

★ 解析：

句首的You are supposed to..．可以视为习惯表达，表示“你要……你应该……”，相当于You are expected to...、You should...、You ought to...；句中的report for duty可以视为固定用法，表示“报到上班”。

You are supposed to be transferred to the accounting department next week.

下周你要调职到会计部去。

2. Maybe you would like to talk with him face to face before you are transferred to the new department.

在你调职到新部门工作之前，你也许会想要和他当面谈一谈。
