英语的写信怎么写说的尽量详细点最
英语书信主要可以分为私人信件与事务信件两大类。从中学生实际出发,本书主要介绍如何写私人信件。
1.信封
英语信封与汉语信封的写法是完全不同的。首先,英语信封与汉语信封上收发人的姓名和地址的位置是不同的。 汉语信封将收信人姓名地址写在信封偏左或中央部位,寄信人的姓名和地址写在信封右下方;而将英语信封的发信人姓名和地址写在信封的左上方,收信人的姓名与地址在信封偏右或中央部位。另外,英汉信封上收发信人的姓名地址顺序也完全不同:汉语信封是先写国家名称,然后再从大地方写到小地方直至路名、门牌号,再写收信人姓名;而英语信封正好相反。
第一行:收信人姓名
第二行:住所门牌号,街道名称
第三行:市镇...全部

1.信封
英语信封与汉语信封的写法是完全不同的。首先,英语信封与汉语信封上收发人的姓名和地址的位置是不同的。
汉语信封将收信人姓名地址写在信封偏左或中央部位,寄信人的姓名和地址写在信封右下方;而将英语信封的发信人姓名和地址写在信封的左上方,收信人的姓名与地址在信封偏右或中央部位。另外,英汉信封上收发信人的姓名地址顺序也完全不同:汉语信封是先写国家名称,然后再从大地方写到小地方直至路名、门牌号,再写收信人姓名;而英语信封正好相反。
第一行:收信人姓名
第二行:住所门牌号,街道名称
第三行:市镇名称及所在地邮政编码
第四行:省州等大地区名称(如果第三行是大城市,这部分也可省去)
第五行:国家名称(寄往国外时需写)
实例:
在写英文姓名时注意:要先写名,再写姓,前面可以用Mr(男士),Mrs(已婚女士),Miss(未婚女士),Ms(不标明婚姻状况的女士),Dr(有博士学位的人),Professor(Prof。
)(教授)。路名可用缩略形式:
Rd。(Road), St。(Street),Ave。(Avenue大道)。有时在信封左下角可以写上“By
Airmail(航空)”,“Printed Matter(印刷品), Registered
Mail(挂号信)”等词语,在左下角还可以写“Please do not bend(请勿折叠)”等提示语。
2.私人信件格式
1)信头:发信人地址和日期
这部分中有时可省去发信人地址,但一般要写日期。放在信纸的右上方。
2)称呼:对收信人的尊称
最普通的是Dear,但与Mr,Mrs,Miss等不同的是:Dear后一般用名字,而Mr,Mrs,Miss后不能单独用名字,而只能是姓或姓与名,比如:对John
Smith的称呼,应该是Mr Smith, Mr John Smith或 Dear John。
称呼后面可用逗号或者冒号。
3)信的正文
4)结尾:发信人对收信人的谦称或敬语。放在信的右下方。
这部分要特别注意英语习惯,不可根据汉语意思写上诸如“此致敬礼”、“祝您健康”之类的中国式的结尾语。
常用的英语书信结尾语如下:
写给同龄人或年长的朋友: Yours sincerely, Sincerely yours,Yours等等。
写给好朋友: Love, With love, Best wishes等等。
写给亲戚:Love, With love, Affectionately yours, Your (ever) loving
son(sister等等)。
5)签名
签名一般在结尾语的下面一行。
事务信件格式与私人信件格式大致相同,只是在称呼和结尾上要比较正式一些。
常用的称呼有:Dear Sir(不知对方姓名时用)
Dear Mr/Mrs/Miss X(知道对方姓名时用)
常用的结尾语有:Yours sincerely(知道对方姓名时用)
Yours truly/Yours faithfully(不知对方姓名时用)
3.私人信件的正文
1)开头
常见的私人信件的开头方式有:
表示高兴: I was so glad/pleased/happy to receive your letter dated May 1st。
表示感谢: Thank you for your wonderful gift/your interesting letter。
表示关心与询问:How are you these days?/How are you getting on these days?/How are
you getting on with your work/studies?
表示抱歉:I am sorry that I did not write to you sooner but I have been very
busy these days。
/ I am sorry that I have not written to you for such a
long time, but let me assure you that you have always been in my thoughts。
一般在表示道歉没有及时给对方写信时,还要简述原因或写上安慰的话。
表示遗憾:I was sorry to learn that you did not do well in the entrance
examination。
/ I was so upset to hear that you are ill these days。 I do
hope you are getting better。
2)信件主体
这部分内容是最自由的,与汉语书信没有什么区别。私人信件一般文体很随便,可以写任何你想写的内容。
3)结束信件
常用的话语有:
I am looking forward to hearing from you soon。
I am afraid I have to stop now but I will write again。
Please give my regards to your family。
Take good care of you and keep in touch。
A Letter to your English Teacher
Dear Mr。
___________;
I am your student named ______。 In fact, I have hesitated for a long
time before I decided to tell you my comments on your English teaching。
Generally speaking, I am content with your teaching。 You are so
responsible, amiable and knowledgeable。
You are good at grammar teaching
and you attach great importance to cultural differences。
However, with China’s entry into WTO, the vast majority of educators
claim that English teaching should be
communication-oriented instead of grammar-oriented, after all, the purpose
of studying English is to communicate rather than to do grammar research。
According to educators, you’d better adjust yourself to the times, that
is to say, it is more advisable for you to put emphasis on Spoken English,
which will play a significant role in our future employment。
Since to improve our Oral English is so indispensable to our future
occupation that to practice Spoken English regularly in class should be
listed on your teaching agenda。
I am very optimistic that your timely change of your teaching method
will have great impact on us。
I am looking forward to your early reply。
Yours sincerely,
A letter of Inquiry
You wish to study at a certain foreign university。
Write a letter
inquiring about the situation there as regards accommodation, fees and
qualifications。
Dear Sir
I am a Chinese citizen who wishes to study at your university。
My plan
is to start my course next term, and I would be grateful if you would be
kind enough to provide me with certain essential information。
First, what qualifications do I need to follow a course of study at
your university? I already have a master’s degree from a university here
in China, but I wonder if there are any further academic requirements。
Second, how much are the tuition fees? Although I intend to be self –
supporting, I would be interested to hear if there are any scholarships
available for international students。
Third, what is the situation as
regards accommodation? I would prefer a single room, which is more
conducive to studying, but if single rooms are expensive, I would be
willing to share。
I look forward to your reply, and to attending your esteemed
institution。
Yours sincerely,
Li Ming
请求信 A Letter of Request
You find that your study load is too heavy。
Write a letter to your college
teacher explaining why you need to withdraw from two courses。
Ask if it is
possible to obtain a refund。
Dear Prof。 James,
I am writing to formally request to withdraw from two courses:
Introduction to Elementary Education (EDU 602) and Teaching Methods (EDU
619)。
The main reason for reducing my course load is that I am finding it
extremely difficult to manage six courses。
In the beginning of the term, I
was perhaps overly optimistic about juggling both my full – time studies
and my part – time job (20 hours/week)。
Because I really must work part
time, I have no other choice but to decrease my course load。
I am planning
on taking the two courses during the summer semester, if they are
available, so that I will be able to complete all the courses for the
degree program by the following year。
I would also like to request a tuition refund, and hope I am not too
late to receive the full reimbursement。
I am sorry for any inconveniences
I have caused by this change in plans。 This decision was not taken
lightly, and I do appreciate the king consideration you have shown to me。
Thank you for your attention to these requests。 If you have any
questions, please feel free to contact me at 277-9144。
I look forward to
hearing from you soon。
Sincerely yours,
Jane Carter。收起
