英语作文书信格式篇一:英文书信格式及范文 英文书信格式及范文 一、 英文书信的结构 二、 书信作文的出题形式和写作要领 三、 书信作文练习及其参考范文 书信是重要的交际工具。英文书信分为两大类:公务信件和私人信件。公务信件是单位与单位或单位与个人之间来往的书信,可能是推荐信、求职信、入学申请书、邀请信,或询问、答复、反映意见(如投诉信)等的信件。私人信件是指亲戚朋友之间的通信。这两类书信各有自己的格式。一般说来,私人信件不拘形式,信文多用手写,也可打印;公务信件要求比较严格,必须遵循一定的格式,信文一定要打印。 第一节 英文书信的结构 英文书信一般由以下六部分组成:信头、信内地址、称呼、正文、结尾、签名。 5.1.1 信头(Heading) 信头是指发信人的地址和日期,通常写在第一页的右上角。行首可以齐头写,也可以逐行缩进写。地址的书写顺序由小到大:门牌号、街道、城市、省(州)、邮编、国名,最后写发信日期。私人信件一般只写寄信日期即可。例如: 123 Tianhe Road Tianhe DistrictGuangzhou 510620 Guangdong Province P. R. C. Jan. 8, 2020 5.1.2 信内地址(Inside Address) 信内地址要写收信人的姓名和地址。在公务信件中要写明这一项,在私人信件中,这一项常常省略。该项写在写信日期下一行的左上角,格式与寄信人地址一样。 5.1.3 称呼(Salutation) 称呼是对收信人的称谓,应与左边线对齐,写在收信人姓名、地址下面1-2行处。在称呼后,英国人常用逗号,美国人则常用冒号。在私人信件中可直呼收信人的名字,但公务信件中一定要写收信人的姓。大部分信件在称呼前加“Dear”。如: Dear Professor/Prof. Bergen: Dear Dr. Johnson, 对不相识的人可按性别称呼: Dear Sir: 或Dear Madam: Dear Ladies。 如果不知收信人的性别则可用Dear Sir or Madam: 5.1.4 正文(Body of Letter) 正文是书信的主体。与中文信件不同的是,英文书信的正文的开头不是先写一些问候语,再阐明写信的目的,而是直接说明写信人的身份及写信的目的,然后提出写信人的情况、想法或要求,并加以必要的解释或说明。英文书信陈述目的时,应该直截了当,意思明确,层次清楚,言简意赅。 书信正文的第一句话或第一段,通常被称为起首语。一般说来,人们习惯用一些客套的写法作为书信正文的起始,即先将对方来信的日期、主题加以简单描述,以便使对方一看便知该信是回答哪一封信的。如果是第一次给别人写信,也可用开头语作必要的自我介绍,并表明自己写信的主要目的。 5.1.5 结尾礼词(Complimentary Close) 公务信件的结尾礼词包含两部分:发信人的结尾套语与署名。结尾套语写在签名上面一行,第一个字母要大写,套语结尾后面要加逗号。在公务信件中,发信人常用的结尾套语有: Yours truly, Yours sincerely, Respectfully yours, Cordially yours, Yours cordially等。 私人信件中,发信人常用的结尾套语有: Sincerely yours, Lovely yours, Your lovely, Your loving son/daughter等。 5.1.6 签名(Signature) 写信人的签名常位于结尾礼词正下方一二行。除非是给很熟悉的人写信,签名一般须写出全名。签名常常较潦草,不易辨认,因此在签名的正下方须打印出全名。 第二节 书信作文的出题形式和写作要领 1990年到2002年1月之间的四级考试作文题中,书信作文共出现两次(2001年6月和2002年1月)。下面,我们先来看看2001年6月四级考试的作文题: Directions: For this part, you are allowed thirty minutes to write a letter. Suppose you are Zhang Ying. Write a letter to Xiao Wang, a schoolmate of yours who is going to visit you during the week-long holiday. You should write at least 120 words according to the suggestion given below in Chinese: 1. 表示欢迎 2. 提出对度假安排的建议 3. 提醒应注意的事项 A Letter to a Schoolmate June 23, 2001 Dear Xiao Wang, _ _ _. Yours, Zhang Ying 从上面的例子可见,书信作文不仅给出正文部分的内容的提纲,而且还给出书信各部分的结构的框架。也就是说,我们只要考虑如何表达提纲部分的内容,而不用考虑书信的结构。 在写书信作文时,首先要把书信正文的提纲内容细化,扩展成更细的英文提纲,然后用简洁、明了、礼貌、正确和得体的语言表达出细化了的提纲内容。例如前面的那封信就可以列出下面的提纲:Topic: A Letter to a SchoolmateQuestion: What are the holiday arrangements and points for attention? Outline:I. Extending my welcomeII. Holiday schedule1. 1st day campus2. 2nd day the art gallery & music hall3. 3rd day mountain climbing4. next 3 days other places of interest (Swan Cave, Golden Lake ?)5. Last day - departureIII.
