英語(yǔ)中書信的種類

1）邀請(qǐng)信

邀請(qǐng)信有正式和非正式之分，也有介于兩者之間者。正式邀請(qǐng)信一般屬于公函類，私人邀請(qǐng)信一般屬于非正式文體。邀請(qǐng)朋友、熟人參加某一聚會(huì)時(shí)，再詞句上不一 定多加斟酌，用詞太正規(guī)倒顯得關(guān)系不密切。但是如果與被邀請(qǐng)人不太熟悉的話，最好用正式文體。如雖認(rèn)識(shí)但并不十分了解，文體可介于兩個(gè)者之間。由此可見，私人邀請(qǐng)究竟用什么文體，關(guān)鍵看與被邀請(qǐng)人之間的親疏的程度。邀請(qǐng)信要明確寫出活動(dòng)（是晚會(huì)、晚餐還是一般的聚會(huì)等）、活動(dòng)的時(shí)間地點(diǎn)組織這項(xiàng)活動(dòng)的理 由，有時(shí)還應(yīng)告訴對(duì)方可能出席的人，另外一般希望對(duì)方給予答復(fù)。

（1）非正式邀請(qǐng)信，如；Coventry St.London

Sept.15th, 1999.Dear Jack,I am going to the cinema to see the Red River Valley and I have two tickets.Would you like to come? The film starts at 7:30 p.m.Maybe we can meet at the Covent Garden Station at 7:00 p.m.and have a drink before the film starts.Please phone me at home to let me know.Looking forward to seeing you.Love

Mary

這封信是寫給朋友的，所以用語(yǔ)比較隨便，比較口語(yǔ)化。

（2）正式邀請(qǐng)信，如：

Dear Ms.Gupta;

It’s our great pleasure to announce that Jan.19th is the 3rd anniversary of the founding of our corporation.We have a small party as follows: 7:00p.m.,Jan.19th, Room No.123, Kunlun Hotel.At this moment, we would like to express our sincere gratitude to our clients for both courtesy and support over the past three years.Please confirm if you plant to attend.Yours Sincerely,Lewis

這是一封正式邀請(qǐng)信，十分正規(guī)，無論從句式，還是用語(yǔ)都十分講究。

(3)介于正式和非正式之間的邀請(qǐng)信，如：

No.4 Middle School

Beijing 100034

April 29th,2000

Dear Miss Katherine,I am very pleased to write to you.My name is Yu Hong and I am monitor of Class One, Grade Three of the No.2 Middle School of Ji'nan.Last year, you came here to give a speech, which was “Fast Reading”.My classmates and I all thank you very much.We will have an English evening at 7:00--9:00 on the evening of May 4th in our classroom.Would you please come and attend the evening party? At the party, we will sing English songs, play games and so on.And we are anxious to invite you to come to sing us an English song.After that we can enjoy the music.We hope to see you soon.Yours

Yu Hong

這封信是寫給一位外籍教師的，這位外籍教師曾經(jīng)到過這所學(xué)校，雖然作者認(rèn)識(shí)，但并不十分了解。

2）感謝信

感謝信可分為感謝饋贈(zèng)、感謝款待、感謝幫助、感謝送行和感謝探病等。

感謝信一般包括以下幾點(diǎn)：

①對(duì)收信人的稱謂；

②寫信的目的；（Thank you for…）

③致謝并詳述所收到的禮物或得到的幫助等；

④結(jié)尾及謙稱。

如：

3)求職信

求職信屬于公務(wù)信函，格式和用詞比較規(guī)。信的內(nèi)容大體上分為三部分

①寫信的目的，②自我介紹，③要求。

注意下面幾點(diǎn)：

①寫信的目的要直截了當(dāng)?shù)卦谛诺拈_頭提出。

②自我介紹部分主要介紹自己的學(xué)歷、工作經(jīng)歷、解決問題的能力等等。在行文、用詞上要表現(xiàn)出自信、懇切的態(tài)度，語(yǔ)言簡(jiǎn)明扼要，突出介紹自己的優(yōu)點(diǎn)，與眾不同的特長(zhǎng)或有利條件。還要緊扣用人單位的需求，巧用詞語(yǔ)，有國(guó)地說服對(duì)方，此職非你莫屬。

③最后提出進(jìn)一步聯(lián)系的途徑，如：時(shí)間、地點(diǎn)。還可以主動(dòng)提出接受面試或考核等。

④求職信在寫作特點(diǎn)上主要用第一人稱以及動(dòng)詞的一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)。如：

Ms Li Ling

P.O.Box 231

Beijing

Li Ling

4)回信

寫回信時(shí)應(yīng)特別注意正確理解寫信人的意圖、所提問題、必須對(duì)寫信人的問題給予明確的答復(fù)。如下例： No.1 Middle School of Nanjing,Jiangsu, China

Jan.23rd, 2000

Dear Jack

Thanks for your letter.Yes, I have some difficulty in learning English.For example, I can't tell the difference between written English and spoken English.Sometimes I often make

mistakes while speaking to others.I want to improve my spoken English.But I don't know how.Would you please give me some advice? As you say, it is really difficult to write toe Chinese characters, but don't worry about it.Have you considered doing plenty of practice? And I suggest you write them as much as possible.I think it will be of great help.I'm looking forward to hearing from you again.Best wishes.Yours

Li Ling

原信中作者問到英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)的情況，同時(shí)征求學(xué)習(xí)漢語(yǔ)的建議并談到自己在學(xué)習(xí)漢語(yǔ)的過程中遇到的問題?；匦胖凶髡邔?duì)來信中的問題作了詳細(xì)的回答并給出了建設(shè)性的建議。

格式：

（1）日期

（2）稱謂（3）正文第一段： 表明寫信意圖。

（4）正文第二段：解釋原因或說明情況

（5）正文第二段：重申寫信意圖（6）署名

? 答題步驟

（一）確定體裁和題材

? 答題步驟

（二）確定主題句

通過審題確定體裁和主題后，就要確定主題句。寫主題句最保險(xiǎn)的方法就是把中文提綱的各句譯成英語(yǔ)。（直譯保守，意譯最佳）

? 答題步驟

（三）擴(kuò)展主題句（1）Listing

列舉法是指列舉具體的事實(shí)或要點(diǎn)來逐步說明和論證主題思想、展開段落的方法。采用列舉法的時(shí)候，需要注意兩點(diǎn)。是要點(diǎn)的羅列要遵循一定的順序

要使用合適的過渡詞語(yǔ)。

? 答題步驟

（三）擴(kuò)展主題句（2）Example

舉例法也是一種常用而且有效的展開段落的方法。它是通過生動(dòng)、典型的實(shí)例對(duì)比較復(fù)雜或者抽象的觀點(diǎn)進(jìn)行闡述的方法。寫作時(shí)提供的例子必須認(rèn)真選擇，保證例子能夠恰如其分，能夠準(zhǔn)確地說明問題。

舉例法常用的一些表達(dá)方式包括 for example, for instance, such as, a case in point, to illustrate, in illustration of, by way of examples, I can’t find a better example than…等。舉例法其實(shí)是一種 “細(xì)節(jié)描述法” 原文：He dances very well.改后：His gift for dancing in a style that no one has even imagined, known as the

“moonwalk” made him an instant superstar.? 答題步驟

（三）擴(kuò)展主題句（3）C & C

段落的主題要指出兩件以上事物的相同或相異之處時(shí)，便可采用比較或?qū)Ρ鹊姆椒??！氨容^ Comparison”用于描述所比對(duì)象的相似之處，而“對(duì)比 Contrast”則用于描述所比對(duì)象不同之處。

比較和對(duì)比一般采用兩種方法來組織： 逐點(diǎn)比較：逐個(gè)問題進(jìn)行雙方面的比較

整體對(duì)照：先敘述一方的全部細(xì)節(jié)，再敘述另一方的全部細(xì)節(jié)

比較和對(duì)比法常用過渡詞：like, likewise, unlike, similarly, in the same way, on the other hand, compared with, by comparison, in contrast to, on the contrary, but, yet, instead, while, whereas, however, nevertheless 等。

? Comparison & Contrast: Useful Expressions

Similarities

is similar to Both Also Too as well Differences

on the other hand however

On the other hand, winter is much colder in A.However, winter is much colder in A.A has a mild winter, but / while B has a cold one.In contrast to A, B has a cold winter.A differs from B by having a cold winter.Spring weather in A is similar

to spring weather in B Both A and B have rain in the spring.A also has a rainy spring season.A has a rainy spring season, too.As well, A has rainy spring season.but / while

in contrast to differs from

? 答題步驟

（三）擴(kuò)展主題句（4）C & E

因果關(guān)系法（Cause and Effect）是指根據(jù)事態(tài)發(fā)展的因果關(guān)系來展開段落的一種寫作方法，這種方法常用在說明文和議論文中。

寫作的時(shí)候，可以從原因入手推導(dǎo)出結(jié)果，也可以從結(jié)果入手推導(dǎo)出原因。因果關(guān)系又是比較復(fù)雜，一種事物或現(xiàn)象的起因往往是多方面的，而某種原因也可能會(huì)引起多種后果，還有可能多種原因?qū)е铝硕喾N后果。一果多因：先寫出結(jié)果然后分析原因 一因多果：先分析原因然后說明后果 ? 答題步驟

（三）擴(kuò)展主題句（5）Classification

劃分和分類法（Classification）就是把要闡述的內(nèi)容按其屬性的不同分門別類、分層次地表達(dá)清楚。使用這種方法可使文章層次分明，表達(dá)清楚，邏輯性強(qiáng)。

劃分指把一個(gè)整體分成若干部分，逐個(gè)闡述。比如，蘋果包括果皮、果肉、果核等組成部分。

分類是指按一定的原則和特點(diǎn)把若干個(gè)體納為一類，使具有相同特征的事物歸入同一類別。例如，繪畫可以分為水彩畫、油畫、中國(guó)畫、版畫等等類別。進(jìn)行劃分和分類時(shí)，特別需要注意的是要有明確而統(tǒng)一的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。Classification = Example + C&C

分類法實(shí)際是舉例法和對(duì)比法兩者結(jié)合在一起的一種方法。為了描寫上的方便，我們常常對(duì)主題句中提出的某些觀點(diǎn)、事物舉例加以說明。當(dāng)所舉的例子比較多時(shí)，我們常常將它們進(jìn)行分類，并進(jìn)行比較。

When I arrived at the park, I found, to my surprise, that there were so many people there.Besides old people, who are the usual early risers to do Taijiquan boxing, a lot of youngsters were also there, running, jumping or talking.In the east of the park, I even saw an old lady showing some school children and workers how to do sword-play.這段文章把作者早上散步時(shí)所看到的人分為三類：老人、青年人和一位老太太。這樣描寫既突出了各類人的特點(diǎn)，又寫出了他們的共性——清晨鍛煉身體。這是典型的分類法。? Classification: Useful Expressions is a kind of Coal is a kind of non-renewable resource.can be divided into Energy resources can be divided into two types.is a type of falls under belongs to is a part of fits into

Coal is a type of non-renewable resource.Coal falls under the category of non-renewable resources.Coal belongs to the category of non-renewable resources.Coal is a part of the category of non-renewable resources.Coal fits into the category of non-renewable resources.Coal is grouped with non-renewable resources.is grouped with is related to Coal is related to other non-renewable resources.Coal is associated with other non-renewable resources.is associated with

? 答題步驟

（三）擴(kuò)展主題句（6）Definition

定義法是通過簡(jiǎn)單易懂而且準(zhǔn)確的語(yǔ)言闡明某事物的性質(zhì)和特征來發(fā)展段落，使讀者對(duì)某事物比較抽象的或是難以把握的一些特征有一個(gè)較清晰的認(rèn)識(shí)。定義法常用于說明、描寫和論證，以提供更多的具體解釋來說明某一概念或術(shù)語(yǔ)。通常有三種方法對(duì)一個(gè)詞、一條術(shù)語(yǔ)或諺語(yǔ)、一個(gè)概念下定義：給出同義詞、用一個(gè)帶有定語(yǔ)從句的復(fù)合句、用一整段文章，而以第三種方法最為常用。? 答題步驟

（三）擴(kuò)展主題句（7）T（P）&S ? 時(shí)間法（Time）

在記敘文敘述一個(gè)故事或者一系列事件時(shí)，通常按事件發(fā)生的先后順序排列句子。

在說明文中敘述一件事應(yīng)該遵循的程序或步驟時(shí)（Process)，也常用時(shí)間順序法。

? 空間法（Space）

在描寫文中描述一個(gè)地方、事情或人物外貌時(shí)，常按空間順序（自左至右，由近到遠(yuǎn)，由上至下，由下到上，由里到外，由外到里，由中間到兩邊等順序）來展開段落。

? 答題步驟

（三）擴(kuò)展主題句

小結(jié) Developing by Listing Developing by Example Developing by Comparison and Contrast Developing by Cause and Effect Developing by Classification Developing by Definition Developing by Time and Space Developing by Process ? 答題步驟

（四）檢查 1.題目

2.句子首字母要大寫 3.標(biāo)點(diǎn)問題 4.單詞拼寫錯(cuò)誤

5.比較級(jí)錯(cuò)誤 6.不一致 7.詞性誤用

8.結(jié)尾用問句，或空喊口號(hào)

? 如何開頭

（一）：對(duì)立法

先引出其他人的不同看法,然后提出自己的看法或者偏向于某一看法, 適用于有爭(zhēng)議性的主題。When asked about....., the vast/overwhelming majority of people say that.......But I think/view a bit differently.When it comes to...., some people believe that.......Others argue/claim that the opposite/reverse is true.There is probably some truth in both arguments/statements, but(I tend to the previous/latter)

Now, it is commonly/generally/widely believed/held/acknowledged that....They claim/ believe/argue that...But I wonder/doubt whether......? 如何開頭

（二）：現(xiàn)象法

引出要剖析的現(xiàn)象或者問題, 然后評(píng)論

Recently the rise in problem of/(phenomenon of)...has cause/aroused public/popular/wide/ worldwide concern.Recently the issue of the problem of/the phenomenon of...has been brought into focus.(has been brought to public attention)

Inflation/Corruption/Social inequality...is yet another of the new and bitter truth we have to learn to face now/constantly.? 如何開頭

（三）：引用法

先引出名人名言或者有代表性的看法, 來引出文章要展開論述的觀點(diǎn)!

“Knowledge is power.” such is the remark made by Bacon.This

remark has been shared by more and more people.“Education is not complete with graduation.” Such is the opinion of a great American philosopher.Now more and more people share his opinion.How often we hear such statements/words like these /this “.........”

In our own days we are used to hearing such traditional complains as this “......”.?

如何開頭

（四）：比較法

通過對(duì)過去、現(xiàn)在兩種不同的傾向、觀點(diǎn)的比較 , 引出文章要討論的觀點(diǎn).For years,...had been viewed as...But people are taking a fresh look now.With the growing..., people........People used to think that...(In the past,....)But people now share this new.?

如何結(jié)尾

（一）結(jié)論型

通過對(duì)文章前面內(nèi)容的討論 ,引出或重申文章的中心思想及觀點(diǎn).From what has been discussed above, we may safely draw the conclusion that.....In summary/In a word , it is more valuable.......重申

---變換表達(dá)方式 ?

如何結(jié)尾

（二）后果型

揭示所討論的問題若不解決, 將產(chǎn)生的嚴(yán)重后果.We must call for an immediate method , because the current phenomenon of..., if allowed to proceed, will surely lead to the heavy cost of.......Obviously , if we ignore/are blind to the problem , there is every chance that..will be put in danger.?

如何結(jié)尾

如何結(jié)尾

（四）方向型

如何結(jié)尾

（五）意義型

文章結(jié)尾的時(shí)候,從更高的更新的角度指出所討論的問題的重要性以及其深遠(yuǎn)的意義!Following these suggestions may not guarantee the success, but the pay off might be worth the effort.It will not only benefit but also benefit.....In any case, whether it is positive or negative, one thing is certain that it will undoubtedly …… ? 寫作過程中的七原則（1）主題句原則

一定要寫一個(gè)主題句，放在文章的開頭（保險(xiǎn)型）或者結(jié)尾，讓讀者一目了然，必會(huì)平安無事！

特別提示：隱藏主體句可是要冒險(xiǎn)的！

To begin with, you must work hard at your lessons and be fully prepared before the exam（主題句）.Without sufficient preparation, you can hardly expect to answer all the questions correctly.? 寫作過程中的七原則（2）長(zhǎng)短句原則

寫一個(gè)短小精辟的句子有時(shí)可以起到畫龍點(diǎn)睛的作用。而且如果我們把短句放在段首或者段末，也可以揭示主題：

As a creature, I eat;as a man, I read.Although one action is to meet the primary need of my body and the other is to satisfy the intellectual need of mind, they are in a way quite similar.強(qiáng)烈建議： 長(zhǎng)短結(jié)合、錯(cuò)落有致

在文章第一段（開頭）用一長(zhǎng)一短，且先長(zhǎng)后短。

2）在文章主體部分，可先用一個(gè)短句解釋主要意思，然后在闡述幾

個(gè)要點(diǎn)的時(shí)候采用先短后長(zhǎng)的句群形式。文章結(jié)尾一般一長(zhǎng)一短。

? 寫作過程中的七原則（3）多變句式原則

1）簡(jiǎn)單句、并列句和復(fù)雜句交替使用。

? 簡(jiǎn)單句只包含一個(gè)主謂結(jié)構(gòu)，個(gè)個(gè)成分都是單詞或短語(yǔ)的句子。? 并列句包含兩個(gè)或更多互不依從的主謂結(jié)構(gòu)，分句由并列連詞來連接

? 復(fù)合句的某個(gè)成分，如主語(yǔ)、賓語(yǔ)、表語(yǔ)、同位語(yǔ)、定語(yǔ)、狀語(yǔ)等，由

另一個(gè)句子承當(dāng)

? 寫作過程中的七原則（3）多變句式原則

2）插入語(yǔ)使句子有層次感

? Mr liu, our oral English teacher, is easy-going.3）排比句使句子朗朗上口

? Whether your tastes are modern or traditional, sophisticated or simple, there is plenty in London for you.? We have got to study hard, to enlarge our scope of knowledge, to realize our potentials and to pay for our life.? 寫作過程中的七原則（4）連接詞原則

改卷老師一般通過一些關(guān)鍵性的“標(biāo)簽”（連接詞）來判定你的文章是否結(jié)構(gòu)清楚，條理自然。

? 1)first, second, third, last = firstly, secondly, thirdly, finally(不推薦，俗)? 2)most important of all, moreover, finally

(一般)

(一般)? 3)in the first place, in the second place, in the third place, lastly ? 4)to begin with, then, furthermore, finally ? 5)to start with, next, in addition, finally

(強(qiáng)烈推薦)

(強(qiáng)烈推薦)

(強(qiáng)烈推薦)? 6)first and foremost, besides, last but not least ? 7)on the one hand, on the other hand ? 8)for one thing, for another thing

(適用于兩點(diǎn)的情況)

(適用于兩點(diǎn)的情況)? 寫作過程中的七原則（5）多下少上原則

一定要多用具體的下義詞，少用空洞的上義詞。

? 我們說很好的時(shí)候，不應(yīng)說nice這樣空洞的詞，應(yīng)用一些諸如generous, humorous, interesting, smart, gentle, warm-hearted, hospital之類的形象詞。?

positive, favorable, rosy（美

好的)，promising（有

希

望的)，perfect, pleasurable , excellent, outstanding, superior替換good。

? dreadful, unfavorable, poor, adverse, ill(有害的)替換 bad，但如果bad做表語(yǔ)，可以有be less impressive替換

? affair ,business ,matter 替換thing ? beneficial, rewarding替換helpful

? 寫作過程中的七原則（6）短語(yǔ)優(yōu)先原則

寫作時(shí)，尤其是在考試時(shí)，如果使用短語(yǔ)，有兩個(gè)好處：

1）用短語(yǔ)會(huì)使文章增加亮點(diǎn)，如果老師們看到你的文章太簡(jiǎn)單，看不到一個(gè)自己不認(rèn)識(shí)的短語(yǔ)，必然會(huì)看你低一等。相反，如果發(fā)現(xiàn)亮點(diǎn)—精彩的短語(yǔ)，那么你的文章定會(huì)得高分了。

2）關(guān)鍵時(shí)刻思維短路，只有湊字?jǐn)?shù)，怎么辦？用短語(yǔ)是一個(gè)辦法！

? I cannot bear it.可以用短語(yǔ)表達(dá)：I cannot put up with it.? be indicative of ,be suggestive of ,be fearful of 替代 indicate, suggest ,fear ? bear in mind that 替換remember ? 寫作過程中的七原則（7）挑戰(zhàn)極限原則

在學(xué)生的文章中，很少發(fā)現(xiàn)諸如獨(dú)立主格的句子，其實(shí)獨(dú)立主格很簡(jiǎn)單，它就是分詞的一種特殊形式，分詞要求主句的主語(yǔ)和分詞短語(yǔ)轉(zhuǎn)換成完整句子時(shí)的主語(yǔ)一致，而獨(dú)立主格則不然。

? The weather(being)fine, a large number of people went to climb the Qinling Mountains.? Africa is the second largest continent, its size being about three times that of China.? 四級(jí)作文總結(jié) ? 宏觀：審題

1）幾段 2）字?jǐn)?shù)比例 3）每一段幾層 4）每一層要點(diǎn) ? 中層：句型、邏輯 1）主題句必須攻克（三段）2）學(xué)會(huì)拓展 ? 微觀：詞匯、銜接

第三篇：英語(yǔ)書信寫作指導(dǎo)：書信的種類

—、書信寫作要求

書信(Letter)一般可分為事務(wù)信件或公函(Business Letter or Offical Correspondence)以及私人信件(Private Letter)兩大類。一般包括以下幾個(gè)要點(diǎn)：

1）收信人的姓名和地址；

2）寄信人的姓名及其與收信人的關(guān)系；

3）寄信人的地址（有時(shí)可以省略）；

4）寫信的時(shí)間；

5）信的內(nèi)容。

二、書信的格式

1）信頭(Heading)；

2）稱呼(Salutation)；

3）正文(Body of the letter)；

4）結(jié)束語(yǔ)(Complimentary close)；

5）簽名(signature)。

三、書信的種類

1）邀請(qǐng)信

邀請(qǐng)信有正式和非正式之分，也有介于兩者之間者。正式邀請(qǐng)信一般屬于公函類，私人邀請(qǐng)信一般屬于非正式文體。邀請(qǐng)朋友、熟人參加某一聚會(huì)時(shí)，再詞句上不一 定多加斟酌，用詞太正規(guī)倒顯得關(guān)系不密切。但是如果與被邀請(qǐng)人不太熟悉的話，最好用正式文體。如雖認(rèn)識(shí)但并不十分了解，文體可介于兩個(gè)者之間。由此可見，私人邀請(qǐng)究竟用什么文體，關(guān)鍵看與被邀請(qǐng)人之間的親疏的程度。邀請(qǐng)信要明確寫出活動(dòng)（是晚會(huì)、晚餐還是一般的聚會(huì)等）、活動(dòng)的時(shí)間地點(diǎn)組織這項(xiàng)活動(dòng)的理 由，有時(shí)還應(yīng)告訴對(duì)方可能出席的人，另外一般希望對(duì)方給予答復(fù)。

（1）非正式邀請(qǐng)信，如：Coventry St.London

Sept.15th, 1999.Dear Jack,I am going to the cinema to see the Red River Valley and I have two tickets.Would you like to come? The film starts at 7:30 p.m.Maybe we can meet at the Covent Garden Station at 7:00 p.m.and have a drink before the film starts.Please phone me at home to let me know.Looking forward to seeing you.Love

Mary

這封信是寫給朋友的，所以用語(yǔ)比較隨便，比較口語(yǔ)化。

（2）正式邀請(qǐng)信，如：

Dear Ms.Gupta,It's our great pleasure to announce that Jan.19th is the 3rd anniversary of the founding of our corporation.We have a small party as follows: 7:00p.m.,Jan.19th, Room No.123, Kunlun Hotel.At this moment, we would like to express our sincere gratitude to our clients for both courtesy and support over the past three years.Please confirm if you plant to attend.Yours Sincerely,Lewis

這是一封正式邀請(qǐng)信，十分正規(guī)，無論從句式，還是用語(yǔ)都十分講究。

（3）介于正式和非正式之間的邀請(qǐng)信，如：

No.4 Middle School

Dear Sir/Madam,I am writing to inform you that I wish to move into a new room next term.I would prefer a single room, as I find the present sharing arrangement inconvenient.I must explain that the reason for my dissatisfaction is my roommate’s inconsiderate behavior.For one thing, his friends are constantly visiting him;for another, he regularly holds noisy parties.For another, he sometimes borrows my stuff without asking me.In these situations, I find it difficult to concentrate on my studies, and I am falling behind in my assignments.I am sure you will agree that the only solution is for me to move into a room of my own, where I will be free from such distractions.Therefore, I would be grateful if you could find a single room for me, preferably not in the same building but as near to the college campus as possible.Yours sincerely,Janice Kennedy

第五篇：英語(yǔ)書信

英文信件格式

英語(yǔ)信件的種類比較多，有一般信件，邀請(qǐng)信，推薦信等。但幾乎所有信件的格式都大同小異。書寫英語(yǔ)信件要注意下面幾點(diǎn)：

（一）英語(yǔ)書信結(jié)構(gòu)、書寫款式及要求：

1．書信結(jié)構(gòu)

英語(yǔ)書信結(jié)構(gòu)一般有以下幾個(gè)部分組成：

1）信封（envelope）。英語(yǔ)的信封和中文的一樣，有三部分組成，即發(fā)信人地址、收信人地址和郵票。只不過英語(yǔ)信封的格式除了郵票所貼的位置（信封的右上角）和中文的一樣外，英語(yǔ)信封上要寫的發(fā)信人和收信人的地址和中文的大不一樣。發(fā)信人的地址應(yīng)寫在信封的左上角，收信人的地址應(yīng)寫在信封偏中右偏下處，如下：

2）信頭(heading)，即寫發(fā)信人的地址和日期（右上角）。3）信內(nèi)姓名地址(inside address)，即寫收信人的姓名和地址（左上角）。

4）稱呼(salutation)，即寫對(duì)收信人的尊稱（一般用Dear Mr.? ,;Dear Madam Helen,;Dear Miss?,;Dear John,;Dear Professor Smith,等）。稱呼直接寫在收信人地址的正下方，中間空一至二行。稱呼后面的標(biāo)點(diǎn)一般只能用逗號(hào)。以上信頭、信內(nèi)姓名和地址三部分的結(jié)構(gòu)如下：

注：如果是相當(dāng)熟悉和隨便的朋友之間，因?yàn)楸舜硕贾缹?duì)方的地址，故信頭和信內(nèi)的地址常常省略。

5）正文(body)，即信件內(nèi)的主要內(nèi)容。正文第一句句子一般和稱呼之間空一至二行。

6）信尾客套語(yǔ)(complimentary close)，即寫信人在信的右（或左）下角，寫上表示自己對(duì)收 信人一種禮貌客氣的謙稱。一般有Sincerely,;Sincerely yours,;Yours sincerely,;Friendly

yours,;Truly yours,;Yours truly,;Cordially yours,;Yours cordially,等。

7）信尾簽名(signature)，即親筆簽上寫信人自己的姓名。如果是用打字機(jī)或電腦寫的信，在寫信人簽名的上方，同樣應(yīng)該打上寫信人的姓名。

除以上七個(gè)部分外，有時(shí)一些英語(yǔ)書信還包括：（1）附件(Enclosure)，以Enc.表示，如“附有。。。證明”應(yīng)寫為Enc?Certificate；（2）再啟(Postscript)，以P.S.表示；（3）抄送件(Carbon Copy to?)，以c.c.表示，說明一式多份抄送其他有關(guān)人員。這些都是次要的補(bǔ)充部分。P.S.主要在私人信件中使用，事務(wù)信件中應(yīng)避免使用，以免造成寫信人粗心大意的印象。Enc.和c.c.大都用在商貿(mào)信函中。

2．書寫款式

英語(yǔ)書信的款式一般有兩種：齊頭式(Block Style)和折衷式(Semi-Block Style)。齊頭式常常在商貿(mào)、官方以及一些正式的信件中使用，以顯示信件內(nèi)容的嚴(yán)肅性，真實(shí)性，可靠性。而折衷式則顯的比較隨便，主要用于家人、朋友、私人之間來往的信件。如果兩人之間不是第一次通信，相互比較了解，可以省略信內(nèi)的雙方地址。以下分別介紹齊頭式和折衷式信件兩種款式。

A: 齊頭式信件款式：（范文 1。）

注：用齊頭式信件寫信，其正文與稱呼之間空一至二行。每段的第一句句子不需要空

格，但段與段之間需要空一至二行。齊頭式信件的信尾客套話和簽名可以有兩種款式。第一種寫在左下方，這是最常用也是最正式的。另外也可以寫在右下方，這種形式則表示寫信人與收信人之間的關(guān)系比較熟悉隨便。下面是另一種齊頭式信件的格式。

齊頭式信件款式：（范文 2。）

B: 折衷式信件款式： 用折衷式書寫信件，其正文與稱呼之間空一至二行。第一段第一句的第一個(gè)單詞必須在Dear稱呼的直接下面。以后每段開頭都要與第一段第一個(gè)字對(duì)齊。信尾的客套話和簽名都寫在右下方。朋友之間寫信一般都使用折衷式，而且稱呼與正文之間一般不空行。具體款式和要求參見后面的一些信件。以下是一封折衷式信件。

3．信件書寫要求：

寫英語(yǔ)信件一般可以使用打字機(jī)、電腦，朋友之間比較隨便的信件也可以用鋼筆、圓珠筆甚至彩色筆，但不宜用鉛筆。不管你用什么形式書寫，一些重要的信件，簽名處必須用深藍(lán)色或黑色墨水筆簽名。

（二）各類常用信件

1）感謝信

2）祝賀信

3）邀請(qǐng)信

4）一般信件

5）商業(yè)信件

6）求學(xué)信
