我们对商务报告的写作原则和写作步骤都已经有了了解。而商务英语报告的写作语气也很重要。一般而言，报告大多由下属写给上司，使用的语言多为正式。此外，报告的内容和篇幅也决定了其写作语气比商务信函要正式得多。在撰写商务英语报告的过程中，可以适当多使用一些能提高语言正式度的英语语法结构。具体而言如下： •. 使用被动语态，如：The e-Source message will be delivered to the target audience multiple times through multiple avenues. •. 使用复杂词汇，如：The training system incorporates (includes) many visual aids. •. 使用长句子，如：The content and message of the kit will be similar to that sent to conventional outlets, but will be tailored to electronic media and will either be e-mailed to the Webmaster or sent in hard copy and on a diskette. •. 使用名词短语，如：The rectification of this problem can be achieved by insertion of a wedge. •. 使用非人物主语，如：Putting a copy of this CD-ROM in the hands of editors of targeted publications will allow them to see for themselves the features of the State Computer Store. •. 使用分词短语，如：Armed with this information, our customers will be able to identify trends and make strategic decisions in accordance with their agency’s goals. •. 使用动词不定式，如：To streamline the internal approval process, we can e-mail our quote to our purchasing agent for budget approval. •. 使用介词短语，如：With convenient access to Web Services in our online Electronic Product and Pricing Catalog &. Order Tracking and Status System, customers can generate sales and service reports upon demand.
