Introduction
Memo, short for memorandum, is a simple and efficient message that is used to remind people of or draw people's attention to certain matters. It usually omits（省略） the letterhead（信头）, salutation（称呼）, complimentary close（结尾敬语） and signature（签名） that are commonly used in business letters. It is efficient because it conveys the author's ideas quickly to the reader.
A memo may communicate information, announce policies, instruct（通知） employees, make requests or offer advice.

A good memo body usually carries the following features
Use a conversation tone. Since the reader and the author are familiar with each other, you may use a conversational tone. You may use ordinary words, first-person pronouns, but it dosen's necessarily mean that you can be casual（随便的） with your writing.
Be brief. As a tool（手段） of efficient internal（内部的） communication, memos should be concise（简明的）. You should avoid redundancy（冗余） in your message.
Have a single topic. An effective memo usually discusses a single topic; thus the reader may concentrate on the subject..
