1.私人书信的格式
私人书信通常由下列五部分组成:
信头(含发信人地址、发信日期)、称呼(对收信人的尊称)、正文(发信人要说的内容)、结
尾(发信人对收信人的谦称或致敬语)和签名(发信人姓名签字)。如上图所示。
2.私人书信的写作要求
信头的写法:
信头位于信笺的右上角(如上图),包括发信人地址和发信日期,通常是以写信人自己的地点开
头。给好友、熟人的信,可以不写地址,只写日期。有的信笺上已经印好地址,就不必再写。
信纸上的地址写法应与信封上的写法一样,每一行末应该用逗号,在最后一行的末尾用句号。每行末也可不用标点,但行中省(州)名与国名、省名与市、县名之间,均需用逗号。在地址下面紧接着写日期,信首日期须按July 1s,1995或15th July,1995的写法。7/15/95或7-15-95之类的写法不用在信头,只可用在信的正文部分。年份之前须有逗号。
称呼的用法:
称呼是对收信人的尊称语,通常写在信纸的左边,大约在信头下面半英寸左右的地方。在私人书信中,除了Mr.、Mrs.、Miss等称号外,熟人和亲友之间通常以教名(或昵称)相称。下面是私人书信中常用的称呼(接亲密程度顺序排列):
Dear Anna 亲爱的安娜
My Dear Anna 我亲爱的安娜
Dearest Anna 最亲爱的安娜
My Dearest Anna 我最亲爱的安娜
My Dearest 我最亲爱的Darling Anna 亲爱的安娜(夫妻之间的称呼)
Mg Darling 我亲爱的My very own darling 我最亲爱的写给同龄的友人,通常在朋友名字的前面冠以“亲爱的”或“我亲爱的”。如果你朋友的姓名是鲍伯·威廉,就写“亲爱的鲍伯”或“我亲爱的鲍伯”。写给长者或熟人,比如是给一位亚当·戴维斯教授写信,恰当的称呼是“亲爱的戴维斯教授”。不过要是收信人喜欢别人称呼他的名字,你也可以写“亲爱的亚当”。写给兄弟、姐妹或堂(表)兄弟(姐妹),在“亲爱的”之后加上他(她)的名字。假如你的堂(表)兄弟的名字叫亨利·哈里森,那就写“亲爱的亨利”。写给家庭中比你年长的其他成员,如你的父母、祖父母、叔叔、姑妈等,就写亲属关系的名称,如“亲爱的妈妈”、“亲爱的叔叔”等等。正文:
信的正文应该在称呼下面一行开始,信纸的左边要留有一英寸左右的空白。私人写信话题广泛,可不拘形式,语言随意。
结尾套语:
私人书信中的结尾套语通常是几个常用的词或词组,接在信的正文下面。结尾的第一个词应该大写,最后一个词的后面有逗号。不同的结尾套语将取决于发信人对收信人的亲密程度。
私人书信中一般常用的结尾语是:
With best wishes,致以最良好的祝愿
All the best,但愿诸事如意
With kind regards,致以亲切的问候
With kindest regards,顺致最亲切的问候
Kind regards,此致亲切的问候
With all good wishes,祝万事顺利
Best regards,顺致敬意
All my love,致以衷心的爱
With undying love,但愿友谊长存
Yours,你的朋友
Yours ever,你的莫逆之交
Ever yours,你的莫逆之交
Yours as ever,永恒的朋友
Yours sincerely,你忠实的朋友,你真诚的Your devoted friend,你的挚友
Sincerely yours,忠实于你的,你的忠诚的Yours very sincerely,你最忠诚的朋友,你最忠诚的Yours affectionately,你的亲密的Love,爱你的签名:在结尾下面空开一点,略偏右的地方签上姓名。如果是打字的,习惯上仍需亲笔签名。私人书信一般只签教名。当然,不太熟悉的人之间也有签全名的。在私人书信中,写信人为了表示对收信人的亲密和尊重,一般不应将自己的职务或职衔写上。

第三篇:英语作文书信格式
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 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。
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, ②对亲戚:a.My dear Auntie, b.Dear Cousin, c.My dear Cousin, ③对朋友、同学a.My dear friend, b.Dear Mr Jackson, c.My dear Mr Jackson, d.Dear Sir, ④对未婚女子:a.Dear Miss Luce, b.My dear Miss Luce, ⑤对一般女子,不论是否结婚:a.Madame, b.Dear Madame, ⑥对已婚女子:a.Dear Mrs Helen Jackson, b.My dear Mrs Helen Jackson, ⑦对公司、工厂、学校等:a.Dear Sirs, b.Sirs, c.Gentlemen,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。开头语
①相当于中文的“敬君者”。a.I beg to inform you that…
b.I beg to take this opportunity to inform you that … c.I have the honor to address you that…
d. I write
in
a
hurry
to
inform
you
that… e.I have the pleasure to tell you that…
f.I'm very much delighted to inform you that… ②相当于中文的“接读某月某日来信,一切知悉”。
a.I thank you very much for your letter of May 20th …
b.Your letter of May 20th has been received with thanks.c.It gives me great pleasure to receive your kind of May 20th.d.In answer to your kind letter of May 20th, I deeply regret that … e.I have received your kind letter of May 20th.f.Words can't express my delight on finding your favor of yesterday on my desk this morning.g.Your letter dated May 20th has been received.结尾语
采用三种方法: ①采用分词短语:句末用逗号,不用句号。例如: a.Waiting for your good news, b.Looking forward to your early reply, c.Hoping to hear from you soon, d.Hoping you are enjoying good health, e.Regretting that I can't give you a more favorite reply, f.Regretting the trouble I'm causing you, g.Wishing you every success, h.Wishing you a pleasant journey, i.Wishing you a happy New Year, ②采用介词短语,例如: a.With best regards, b.With kind regards to your family, c.With best wishes to you and yours, d.With best wishes for your success and happiness, e.With best wishes for your success in your new field of work, f.With best regards and wishing you all success, g.With warmest regards, h.With best regards to you and your family, i.With the season's greetings,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.结束语(Complimentary Close)结束语的一般写法如下: ① 业务书信常用:Yours faithfully, Faithfully yours, Yours truly, Truly yours, Sincerely yours, ② 公函常用:Yours respectfully, Respectfully yours, Yours sincerely, ③私人书信常用:Sincerely yours, Yours very sincerely, Yours affectionately, Yours ever, ④给亲戚朋友的信常用:Love, All my love, Your(ever)loving son/daughter/cousin , etc.Your affectionate nephew, lovingly, Lovingly yours,署名(Signature)下面是署名的例子:
① 个人署名:truly, W.J.Watson ,Yours faithfully, ②公司署名:Legend Computer Company, Wang Lin ,Sales Manager
附言(Postscript)发信人有时在写完信后又想起一件比较重要的事没有说,可以在信末署名下面几行写上,P.S.(Postscript 的缩写),然后将要补充的话写上。不过要注意写信时最好将事情一次讲清楚,尽量少用或不用P.S.。
以上英文书信结构8个部分在信内的位置如下:
假定你是英国学生(John),在上海二中学习,于6月1日给Babara写信,谈谈伦敦与上海的不同,100~120字,内容如下: 伦敦
上海
汽车靠左行
汽车靠右行

随着时代的发展,环境保护的问题在我们生活中变得越来越重要。甚至成为了我们社会的一大主要问题。首先,国家开始重视环境保护,其次,社会各界也开始关注环境问题,再到个人都更加注意自己的生活方式是否环保
面对这个问题。联合国开始在2008年推广绿色新政,并由此创建了世界环保大会。此后的每一年都有来自全世界的多个国家参加世界环保大会并提出应对环境问题的方案。在我们中国,也有越来越多的环保主题会议召开,每一年国家政府也都会出台新的政策,例如《国家环境十三五规划》。社会还开始大力提倡节能减排,绿色出行。
之所以这么做,是因为当前情况下,环境问题深深的影响到我了我们的生活例如世界上自然灾害频繁发生,对人类造成了巨大的伤害。每一年国家花在环境治理上的金钱和精力也越来越多。人民的生活条件也越来越恶劣。空气污染等环境问题已经深深的伤害到了世界人民。
