英语作文各种书信

概述

书信是人们在日常生活和工作中进行交际的工具，也是高考书面表达中常见的考试文体。由于民族语言和习惯上的差异，英语信件在书写格式及表达方式上与汉语不大一样，有些地方迥然不同。本章将向大家介绍一般格式及各种常见信件，如家信、祝贺信、道歉信及自荐信等。

一般格式

英文书信的构成可分为8个部分：

信头(Heading)

日期(Date)

收信人姓名及地址(Inside Name and Address)

称呼(Salutation)

信文(Body of the letter)

结束语(Complimentary close)

署名(Signature)

附言(P. S.)

(1)信头(Heading)

信头是指发信人的单位名称或地址。一般情况下发信人只需把自己的地址写(打字，手写均可)在信的右上角，离开信纸的顶头约1英寸，占二三行或四行均可，格式如下： ①齐头式

②缩进式

注意：写地址的次序与中文不同，应先写门牌号码街道，然后城市和国名。写地址时采用齐头或缩进式，以及每行后要不要加标点符号，都没有固定的规定。如写给经常往来的亲友，这项地址也可以省略。

(2)日期(Date)

写日期注意下列各点：

①年份应写全，例如不能用“99”来代替“1999”；

②月份应写英文名称，除May, July外，可用缩写，如：Sep., Oct.。但不要用数字来代替，如7／4／99 或7， 4， 99，因为在英国此日期代表 7th April，1999，而美国(转载于:www.Zw2.cN 爱 作 文 网)则代表4th July，1999。

③日期可用1，2，3，4?11，12?21，22?31等，也可用lst，2nd，3rd，4th?11th，21

th?22nd?31st等。

日期的几种写法：

a．July 7，1998

b．1st October, 1998

c．30 Nov., 1997

d．Sep. 3rd, 1999

④特别注意英文书信日期应紧接着写信人地址下一行，不能像写中文书信那样写在书信签名之后，这是很多学生的常见错误。

(3)收信人姓名及地址(Inside Name and Address)

写信人的地址和日期写好以后，接着就要写收信人的姓名和地址，一般的事务信件或给较生疏的朋友的信件要写，而在给极熟的朋友的信中则可省去。这一项写在日期下一行的左上角。收信人姓名写一行，收信人地址可分两行或三行写，和写信人的地址一样，上下可取齐，也可以向右缩进。在姓名前一般要加上称号，称号因人而异。

①对普通男子用Mr；

②对未婚女子用Miss；

③对已婚女子用Mrs，对婚姻状况不明确的通常用Ms(后跟本人姓)；

④对男子用Master；

⑤对教授或博士(医生)用Prof．或Dr．

(4)称呼(Salutation)

称呼指的是信文开头的那种称呼，如Dear , Mr, Uncle，各种称呼因人而异。在称呼后面一般是用逗号，但也有用冒号的。现归纳如下：

b．My dear Mrs Helen Jackson,

⑦对公司、工厂、学校等：

a．Dear Sirs,

b．Sirs,

c．Gentlemen,

(5)信文(Body of the letter)

信文是信件的主体部分，也就是信的内容。正文应在称呼下两行开始。信的开头第一个字母通常和称呼开头第一个词平齐。也有往后退四个或八个字母的。下面介绍一些开头语和结尾语。

c．It gives me great pleasure to receive your kind of May 20th.

③采用完整句子：

a．We are waiting for your good news.

b．I hope to receive your early reply.

c．We look forward to your reply at your earliest convenience.

d．I thank you very much for your services, and wish your continued success.

Yours sincerely

首先我们讲一下书信写作的基本格式(the format of a letter)

考研当中的书信格式比商务信函的格式要宽松很多，一般的商务信函要求把自己的名字、地址什么的相关信息写在右上角，左上角写上对方的姓名和地址。但是在考研英语中，地址都不需要写，所以只包含三个部分的相关内容。

1，称呼(salutation)

英文当中称呼包含两大类，一个是比较正式的称呼，一类是不太正式的称呼。

(1)正式的称呼

a 团体、机构、组织或不知道对方姓名：Dear Sir/Madam,(称呼中要体现男女平等)

b 收信人是某个领导或者是上司Dear Mr.XXX或者Dear Ms.XXX或者Mrs.XXX

(2)不正式的称呼

收信人是朋友或者熟人Dear +given name

2，主题(body)

根据文章内容的要求来进行细分。但是要注意英文的信件往往是有什么说什么，开门见山，切忌拐弯抹角。

3，落款(complimentary close)

(1) 写给团体、组织、机构：yours faithfully,

(2) 写给老板、上司、老师：yours sincerely,

(3) 写给好朋友，熟人等等：kind regards,或者best wishes,

书信写作的语域要求

下面我们简单介绍一下语域(register)方面的要求：

1，根据写作对象确定语域，通常给正式的机构写信就采用正式的语域，给朋友写信就采用非正式的语域。

举个简单的例子，比如是这么一句话“请告诉我你能否参加下星期的会”

如果是你和朋友有一个简单的聚会的话，你可以这么写：Let me know if you can come for the meeting next week.

如果写信的对象是朋友以外的组织机构，你的上司，或者陌生人的话，你得这么写：Please kindly inform us of your availability for the meeting to be held next week. 其中，用了一个难词availability和一个不定式的被动语态。

假如现在是邀请一个朋友来共度周末的话：How about coming down to stay with us for weekend?

假如是要求一个合作伙伴，领导什么的话，像刚才这么说，语域上就不太合适了，你可以说：We would like to invent you for a weekend. 或者 We would appreciate it if you could come for the weekend.

2，另外，正式和非正式的一个标志之一就是有没有省略。正式的一般不能省略，反之。

比如你给上司买了一张票，希望他到你那里去取，你该怎么说？I would like you to come to my office to pick up the ticket.

写给朋友呢？Come to my office for ticket.

3，另外一个标志是有没有缩略语

I would like to(正式)

I'd like to(非正式)

书信

概述

书信是人们在日常生活和工作中进行交际的工具，也是高考书面表达中常见的考试文体。由于民族语言和习惯上的差异，英语信件在书写格式及表达方式上与汉语不大一样，有些地方迥然不同。本章将向大家介绍一般格式及各种常见信件，如家信、祝贺信、道歉信及自荐信等。

一般格式

英文书信的构成可分为8个部分：

信头(Heading), 日期(Date), 收信人姓名及地址(Inside Name and Address), 称呼(Salutation), 信文(Body of the letter), 结束语(Complimentary close), 署名(Signature), 附言(P. S.)

信头(Heading)

信头是指发信人的单位名称或地址。一般情况下发信人只需把自己的地址写(打字，手写均可)在信的右上角，离开信纸的顶头约1英寸，占二三行或四行均可，格式如下：①齐头式 ②缩进式

写日期注意下列各点：①年份应写全，例如不能用“99”来代替“1999”；②月份应写英文名称，除May, July外，可用缩写，如：Sep., Oct.。但不要用数字来代替，如7／4／99 或7， 4， 99，因为在英国此日期代表 7th April，1999，而美国则代表4th July，1999。 ③日期可用1，2，3，4…11，12…21，22…31等，也可用lst，2nd，3rd，4th…11th，21th…22nd…31st等。

日期的几种写法：a．July 7，1998 b．1st October, 1998 c．30 Nov., 1997 d．Sep. 3rd, 1999 ④特别注意英文书信日期应紧接着写信人地址下一行，不能像写中文书信那样写在书信签名之后，这是很多学生的常见错误。

收信人姓名及地址(Inside Name and Address)

写信人的地址和日期写好以后，接着就要写收信人的姓名和地址，一般的事务信件或给较生疏的朋友的信件要写，而在给极熟的朋友的信中则可省去。这一项写在日期下一行的左上角。收信人姓名写一行，收信人地址可分两行或三行写，和写信人的地址一样，上下可取齐，也可以向右缩进。在姓名前一般要加上称号，称号因人而异。

①对普通男子用Mr；②对未婚女子用Miss；③对已婚女子用Mrs，对婚姻状况不明确的通常用Ms(后跟本人姓)；

④对男子用Master；⑤对教授或博士(医生)用Prof．或Dr．

称呼(Salutation)

称呼指的是信文开头的那种称呼，如Dear , Mr, Uncle，各种称呼因人而异。在称呼后面一般是用逗号，但也有用冒号的。现归纳如下：①对父母、兄弟、姐妹等；a．Father, b．My dear Mother, c. Dear Sister, d. Dear Tom,
