  If you do not have any prior appointment on April 1. We look forword to the pleasure of your company 。

  Yours Sincerely

  2:感謝信

  September 10th is the day that every student should bear in mind. It is the time to express our congratulations to our teachers ,who have devoted most of their time and energy to us 。

  I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude; I am referring to that unfortunate accident the other day, when I was knocked off my bike by taxi. If it had not been for my teachers’ timely assistance in giving me first aid, I fear that the consequences might have been much serious。

  Everyone agrees that it was his quick-witted response in that emergency that has led to this satisfactory outcome。

  I will repay my teacher’s kindness with my unselfish help to others. Although nowadays people in mounting numbers talk about the need to be unselfish, we see very few people practice what they preach. If there were more people like my teacher, this would be a much nicer place。

  4:投訴信

  Dear Mr. President:

  I am sophomore from the Department of Low. I’m writing the letter in purpose of complaining about the food and service in the canteen or campus。

  To be frank, I am rather disappointed at the food quality, Price and service in the canteen. First, the dishes are scarcely well cooked and most of them taste the same . Secondly, most of the dishes there are priced so high that some students cannot even afford them. Thirdly, the service in the canteen is far from satisfying and the inside of the canteen always seem untidy。

  To solve the problem, I suggest that another canteen be built and a mechanism of competition be introduced between the old and the new . Besides, both the canteens should be subject to the students’ supervision. Dining is an everyday issue for students. It may affect their academic performance. Therefore, I sincerely hope this letter can draw your attention to the matter and I hope the problems mentioned above be solved as soon as possible。

  英語四級英文書信寫作要領及參考範文

  一、 英文書信的結構

  二、 書信作文的出題形式和寫作要領

  三、 書信作文練習及其參考範文

  書信是重要的交際工具。英文書信分為兩大類:公務信件和私人信件。公務信件是單位與單位或單位與個人之間來往的書信,可能是推薦信、求職信、入學申請書、邀請信,或詢問、答覆、反映意見***如投訴信***等的信件。私人信件是指親戚朋友之間的通訊。這兩類書信各有自己的格式。一般說來,私人信件不拘形式,信文多用手寫,也可列印;公務信件要求比較嚴格,必須遵循一定的格式,信文一定要列印。

  第一節 英文書信的結構

  英文書信一般由以下六部分組成:信頭、信內地址、稱呼、正文、結尾、簽名。

  5.1.1 信頭***Heading***

  信頭是指發信人的地址和日期,通常寫在第一頁的右上角。行首可以齊頭寫,也可以逐行縮排寫。地址的書寫順序由小到大:門牌號、街道、城市、省***州***、郵編、國名,最後寫發信日期。私人信件一般只寫寄信日期即可。例如:

  123 Tianhe Road

  Tianhe District

  Guangzhou 510620

  Guangdong Province

  P. R. C.

  March 15, 2002

  5.1.2 信內地址***Inside Address***

  信內地址要寫收信人的姓名和地址。在公務信件中要寫明這一項,在私人信件中,這一項常常省略。該項寫在寫信日期下一行的左上角,格式與寄信人地址一樣。

  5.1.3 稱呼***Salutation***

  稱呼是對收信人的稱謂,應與左邊線對齊,寫在收信人姓名、地址下面1-2行處。在稱呼後,英國人常用逗號,美國人則常用冒號。在私人信件中可直呼收信人的名字,但公務信件中一定要寫收信人的姓。大部分信件在稱呼前加“Dear”。如:

  Dear Professor/Prof. Bergen:

  Dear Dr. Johnson,

  對不相識的人可按性別稱呼:

  Dear Sir: 或Dear Madam: Dear Ladies。

  如果不知收信人的性別則可用Dear Sir or Madam:

  5.1.4 正文***Body of Letter***

  正文是書信的主體。與中文信件不同的是,英文書信的正文的開頭不是先寫一些問候語,再闡明寫信的目的,而是直接說明寫信人的身份及寫信的目的,然後提出寫信人的情況、想法或要求,並加以必要的解釋或說明。英文書信陳述目的時,應該直截了當,意思明確,層次清楚,言簡意賅。

  書信正文的第一句話或第一段,通常被稱為起首語。一般說來,人們習慣用一些客套的寫法作為書信正文的起始,即先將對方來信的日期、主題加以簡單描述,以便使對方一看便知該信是回答哪一封信的。如果是第一次給別人寫信,也可用開頭語作必要的自我介紹,並表明自己寫信的主要目的。

  5.1.5 結尾禮詞***Complimentary Close***

  公務信件的結尾禮詞包含兩部分:發信人的結尾套語與署名。結尾套語寫在簽名上面一行,第一個字母要大寫,套語結尾後面要加逗號。在公務信件中,發信人常用的結尾套語有:

  Yours truly, Yours sincerely, Respectfully yours, Cordially yours, Yours cordially等。

  私人信件中,發信人常用的結尾套語有:

  Sincerely yours, Lovely yours, Your lovely, Your loving son/daughter等。

  5.1.6 簽名***Signature***

  寫信人的簽名常位於結尾禮詞正下方一二行。除非是給很熟悉的人寫信,簽名一般須寫出全名。簽名常常較潦草,不易辨認,因此在簽名的正下方須打印出全名。

  第二節 書信作文的出題形式和寫作要領

  1990年到2002年1月之間的四級考試作文題中,書信作文共出現兩次***2001年6月和2002年1月***。下面,我們先來看看2001年6月四級考試的作文題:

  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

  u should write at least 120 words according to the suggestion given below in Chinese:

  1. 表示歡迎

  2. 提出對度假安排的建議

  3. 提醒應注意的事項

  A Letter to a Schoolmate

  June 23, 2001

  Dear Xiao Wang,

  __________________________________

  __________________________________

  __________________________________.

  Yours,

  Zhang Ying

  從上面的例子可見,書信作文不僅給出正文部分的內容的提綱,而且還給出書信各部分的結構的框架。也就是說,我們只要考慮如何表達提綱部分的內容,而不用考慮書信的結構。

  在寫書信作文時,首先要把書信正文的提綱內容細化,擴充套件成更細的英文提綱,然後用簡潔、明瞭、禮貌、正確和得體的語言表達出細化了的提綱內容。例如前面的那封信就可以列出下面的提綱:

  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. Points for attention1. Train number & time of arrival2. SunglassesIV. Looking forward to seeing you.Introduction Body 1Body 2Conclusion

  範文:

  A Letter to A Schoolmate

  June 23, 2001

  Dear Xiao Wang,

  I’m very glad to learn that you’re going to visit me during the week-long holiday. My parents will also be happy to see you again. I am sure you will enjoy every minute here.

  I have arranged our schedule for the holiday as follows. On the first day you arrive, I’ll show you around our campus. On the second day, we’ll visit the art gallery and the music hall. Next day, we’ll climb a hill in the northeastern part of the city. On the top of the hill, we can have a wonderful bird’s eye view of the city. During the next three days, we’ll make some short trips to some places of interest nearby, such as the Swan Cave, the Golden Lake, etc. On the last day, I’ll see you off at the railway station.

  Please remember to call and tell me your train number and time of arrival so that I can meet you at the railway station. By the way, it’s very hot here and we have a lot of sunshine, so don’

  t forget to wear you sunglasses.

  I’m looking forward to seeing you soon.

  Yours,

  Zhang Ying
