第一篇:应用文写作
1、书信
一般书信(包括请柬)包括五个部分:(1)称呼。信纸第一行顶格写,后面加冒号。(2)正文。第二行空两格写起,转行顶格。可有若干段落。(3)结尾。正文写完,如果正文最后一行空格比较多,可以接着写“此致”、“祝”等词语,否则,另起一行空两格或四格写“此致”、“祝”等词语。然后另起一行顶格写“敬礼”、“进步”等祝颂语。(4)署名。一般写在祝颂词下行的后半行。(5)日期。写在署名下一行,靠右边写上写作的年月日。
请柬除具有书信的特点外,还要特别写明出席的具体时间、地点。用语要客气有礼貌。
2、启事
启事的写法是:第一行正中写启事的名称,如“征文启事”。第二行空两格起,写启事内容。末尾右下方分两行写署名、日期。启事的有些内容要十分具体明确,如地址、时间、联系办法等。有些内容就不应写得具体明确,如“失物招领”中有关失物的详情,以防冒领。
3、通知
通知的一般格式是:第一行居中写“通知”二字。第二行顶格写被通知方的名称,加冒号(如果正文已明确了通知的对象,被通知方的名称也可略去)。下行空两格起写正文,如果正文内容较多,可分条写,以便读者把握内容要点。署名和日期分两行写在正文的右下方。
4、电报
在电报专用纸上按要求逐项填写收报人的姓名、地址。电文一般不加称呼,不点标点,不留空格。署名紧接正文,可用对方熟知的略语表示。数字一般用阿拉伯数字表示,每一格最多可写四位数。写电文既要简洁,又要明白,不要因过简而产生歧义,引起误解。
5、新闻
新闻的样式很多,下面简介一下简讯的格式:(1)标题 概括简讯的主要内容。
(2)导语 导语是简讯开头的一段话,要求用极简明的话概括简讯的最基本内容。
(3)主体 主体是简讯的主要部分,要求具体清楚,内容翔实,层次分明。(4)结尾 是对简讯内容的小结。有些简讯可无结尾。
6、广播稿
广播稿的格式和一般报刊用稿的格式没有什么区别。但要注意收听效果,语言要通俗口语化(书面语改为口头语,文言改为白话),避免因音同字不同造成误解,也不要因念不出标点而产生误解,如“„希望小学‟每个学生都有本《家长捐资助学调查》。”读起来容易使人产生不同的理解。
7、申请书
写申请书的目的是通过向上级或有关主管部门提出自己明确而具体的某种要求并申明理由,以期得到批准。申请书的一般格式是:(1)标题 包括事由和文件名称,如“入团申请书”。(2)正文 包括申请原因。(3)此致、敬礼。(4)申请人。(5)日期。

留言条是指找人没有找到,又没有时间等候,只能留给对方一个简短而明了的条据。留言条的格式也分三部分:称呼、正文、署名和日期。称呼要顶格写,条子留给谁就称呼谁。在称呼下一行空二格写正文,简单明了的把你要给对方说的事情写清楚。在正文下面写清楚谁留的条子,并在署名的下一行写清 年、月、日。

请假条〔格式内容〕
1.标题。2.称谓。3.请假原因。4.请假起止时间。5.祝颂语。6.请假人签名。7.请假时间。
启事 〔格式内容〕
第一行正中简写“启事”二字,另起一行顶格写称呼,另起一行开头空两格写问候语,再另起一行开头空两格写正文。最后写署名和日期。
借条
借条的主要内容包括:债权人姓名、借款金额(本外币)、利息计算、还款时间、违约(延迟偿还)罚金、纠纷处理方式,以及债务人姓名、借款日期等要件。格式,一般来说只要具备贷款人姓名(最好有身份证号码)、借款人姓名(最好有身份证号码)、借款金额(币种)、利息计算方法、还款日期、还款延迟的罚金、以及发生纠纷时的解决方式等就行了。倡议就是倡导、建议。
倡议书是为倡议、发起某项活动而写的号召性的公开建 议性的专用书信。如提议开展抢救国宝大熊猫的倡议书;给希望工程捐款的倡议书等。这些 号召性的书信或公诸报端,或张贴校园,都是倡议书的范例。
倡议书遵循书信的一般格式,又有自己的特点。一般而言,分为向谁倡议,倡议什么,谁倡 议的,以及倡议日期等几个部分,同一般专用书信差不多。特点在于第一行不写称呼,而是 写倡议题目,如“关于抢救国宝大熊猫的倡议”、“关于成立学雷锋小组的倡议”等。接着 在另起一行的顶格处写号召的对象。但称呼不像书信那么实指,而是泛指。有时也可以不写 称呼,而直接写正文。

教导处主任:
我们是07商务(3)班的学生。半个多学期来,大家感到作业负担太重。每天下课都是做作业,课外活动也被挤掉。这主要是因为有的老师喜欢拖堂,即讲课条理性较差造成的。为了提高课堂学习效率,保障休息时间,所以我们建议:
一、希望教导处对这些老师提出要求,尽量不要拖堂,最好课堂上留五之十分钟让大
家做作业;
二、希望教导处指导教师改进教学方法,尽可能做到精讲多练,活跃课堂气氛;
三、尽可能保证我们的课外活动时间。这样可以丰富我们的课余生活。以上建议,不当之处,请批评。此致 敬礼

你们总是如此默默无闻的执著于自己的工作岗位,你们总是如此深沉地奉献着自己的知识和青春。用你们阳光般温暖,雨露般甘甜的教诲,让我们从混沌中领悟人生,让我们在学习中升华!是你们,造就了生机勃勃、欣欣向荣的人民职高!是你们,伴随着我们成长,培育出自强不息、不断进取的品德!是你们,辛勤耕耘在三尺讲台上,无怨无悔!从认字的那天起,我们的每一步成长都离不开你们无限的关爱!
光阴轻轻带走了你们辛勤劳动的一幕幕,正如它轻轻带来了这让我们回忆与感动并存的九月。
九月,是只情满泗意的杯子,我们用双手高高地举起——在一片真诚的祝福声中,请你们干杯。
九月的乐章已经奏响,请接受我们九月的献礼吧!所有拼搏在教育战线的老师们。祝全校老师节日快乐、身体健康、工作顺利!
XX学校学生会 二00九年九月十日 本学期的个人学习计划
上学期因为复习课的时候不是很认真的听讲,而造成了期末考试成绩不太理想。根据上学期的期末考试各科的成绩,为保证能在这学期中的个人学习活动有序进行,进一步的提高自身学习成绩。结合上学期的学习要点,根据自身的实际能力,特制定本学期计划:
一、认真听老师讲课,认真做好笔记,认真做好家庭作业;
二、多读课外书,增强自身的课外知识,以及增强自身的阅读能力;
三、积极向老师或同学请教自己不理解的题目,以便于你更好的复习;
四、自信是非常重要的,要经常对自己说:“我是最棒的,不要让自己失去自信心。”拥有乐观,积极向上的学习态度才能更好地完成最后学习考核。

XX学校上学期创安全班级的工作总结
现在每个家庭只有两三个孩子,孩子的安全健康成长关系着每个家庭的幸福和平安,要为家长分忧解困,为做好安全教育工作是班主任工作的重中之重。班级安全是确保构建和谐校园这一目标任务实现的重要前提和保障。班级安全工作,直接关系到学生生命安全和学生健康成长,关系到千家万户幸福安宁和班级声誉。为了深入贯彻上级有关文件精神,进一步提高全校学生的安全防范意识,切实加强学生人身安全教育,创设一个稳定、安全、有序、平安 的校园环境,确保班级正常的教育教学秩序,一学年来,我认真贯彻班级有关“创建平安校园” 暨 做好班级安全工作的精神,结合我班实际,提高认识,加强管理,注重落实,讲求实效,取得了很好的成效,得到领导的肯定和社会家长的认可,切实达到了创建平安校园的目的。现将班级安全工作总结 如下:
一、班级是未成年人较为聚集的地方,班级安全工作的主要对象是在校学生,他们的自我保护意识和防范能力相对较弱,是安全工作领域的弱势群体,确保他们安全的任务十分艰巨。班级安全工作有其特殊性:
1)学生每天都有变化,都需要重申安全纪律,强调防范措施;
2)从初级中学八年级学生的年龄、生理以及知识结构、认知和自我防范能力等特点来看,班级安全工作的这根弦得时刻绷紧,时刻提防;
二、责任分工,层层落实
按照学校工作部署,具体负责本抓班的安全工作,落实班级的安全管理。成立了班主任主管,班长分管,学习委员、团支部书记、体育委员、劳动委员层层分解负责,做到一人主抓一块,层层抓落实。班主任在学年初给每位学生签订安全责任书 全面抓好下列安全工作:学生个人饮食卫生安全、参加劳动人身安全防范、安全法制教育;校内打架斗殴事件的预防与处理;禁烟和防赌安全工作。教室宿舍居住、床位安全;教学、生活设施安全;食堂饮食卫生安全;用电安全;预防基建工地人身安全。课堂教学人身安全;体育课、活动课、实验课、电脑课教学安全;实验室、电脑室等有关器材使用安全;外出教学活动人身安全。
三、建设“平安校园”,保障班级安全的关键在防范
班级 坚持 “预防为主”的方针,强化管理,落实各项安全措施。进一步明确目标责任,落实到人,学生对个人安全防范形成书面材料并上交班主任。各小组责任人认真进行自查,做到边查边改,对检查中发现的隐患和问题做好记录,并由专人负责,限期整改,切实做到层层有目标,人人有责任。
总之,班级安全管理是造福学生的一项重要举措,也是事关广大学生、班级的生命财产安全的一项重要工作,班级安全建设的成功与否与班级的改革、发展、稳定息息相关。我 们始终把安全工作摆在班级各项工作的重要位置加以落实,给学生提供一个安全健康的环境,让每位学生都充分认识到安全工作的重要性,要人人关心、人人支持、人人参与,始终围绕保障学生生命和财产安全作为重中之重,切实为班级创造安全稳定的工作发展环境贡献自己的力量。班级多一分管理,学生就多一分平安,社会就多一分和谐。

应用文不但是人类在长期的社会实践活动中形成的一种文体,而且是人们传递信息、处理事务、交流感情的工具,有的应用文还用来作为凭证和依据。可是随着社会的发展,人们在工作和生活中的交往越来越频繁,事情也越来越复杂,因此应用文的功能也就越来越多了。所谓应用文是人们在生活、学习、工作中为处理实际事物而写作,有着实用性特点,并形成惯用格式的文章。
1.当今社会包括政府单位在内,很多应用文写作不规范的行为,如何更好规范应用文写作呢?
一、明确概念、认清特点、把握语体特点
1、概念:
应用文是党政机关、企事业单位、人民团体和个人在日常工作、学习和生活中处理公私事务时使用的具有实用价值和固定格式的文体。对应用文的认识,应从两方面考察,一是从文章的功用来看,应用文从产生到发展都是以应用为目的的,或用于处理公务,或用于个人事务,这一点,使它鲜明的区别于以审美为主要功能的文学作品;二是从文章的表现形式上看,应用文较之于其他文体,有着更为严格的写作格式,语言文字也较简明通俗,这一点是与它功能上的实用性相适应的。
2、特点:
第一,功能上的实用性。
应用文的产生源于社会发展和社会生活方方面面的实际需要。国家出现,需要政事管理,出现公文,有了商品交换,契约文书应运而生;社会进入法制阶段,便产生了诉讼文书,实用性是应用文最为根本的特征和生命之所在。应用文是据以办事的工具,它既有明确具体的实用目的,又有明确、固定的使用对象。
第二,内容上的真实性。
应用文的实用性是以真实性为基础和前提的,失去真实性,应用文就失去了价值和意义,甚至会造成重大的破坏性影响。第三,形式上的程式性。
由于社会交际的需要,应用文的文体形式不断完善和充实,在结构形式、语言表达上形成了一些惯用的格式,在有些公用文书的办理上也形成了一定的程式,这就是应用文的程式性。这些程式化的东西,有的是约定俗成的,如信函、请柬的写法;有的是由国家权威行政机构做出统一规定的,如行政公文的格式及写法,都是由《国家行政机关公文处理办法》规定的,这个规定,1993年由国务院办公厅发布,2000年由国务院发布,体现了高度的统一性。还有的是由行业约定,如经济应用文的写法、建筑行业的招投标书、司法应用文中的起诉状、上诉状、申诉状等都有具体的要求和约定。第四,时限性。
应用文的写作是服务于生活和工作的实际需要的,是为解决实际问题的,所以要在一定时限内完成,这就是它的时限性。这其中包括两方面的内容: 一方面从应用文发挥作用的角度说,它有一定的时限性,应用文在一定时间内有效,过了时间就不再有效,时间短的如开会的通知,会议结束了通知就失效了,长的如行政法规、规章,最长的是国家的根本大法《宪法》,当下一部《宪法》出台后,原来的就只有保存的价值了。另一方面,从应用文的撰写的角度来说,它也要讲究时限性,在规定的时间内完成应用文的撰写,否则,就影响了工作。
二、应用文写作要遵守约定俗成的格式要求
关于应用文的写作,要十分注重人们所说的“约定俗成”的格式要求。这种写作规范并非是一种严格规定的法定形式,而是无数前人在写作实践中所取得的某种共同的认识和约定,也可以说是一种审美趣味上的趋同和共识。可见,“约定俗成”虽然不属法定规范,但它必然包含着写作规范中许多合理因素,我们应该加以继承和保留,不应随意破坏和擅自修改,以免影响应用文的特定交际功能。能够善于运用应用文的“约定俗成”格式,也是一个人语文修养和水平的具体体现。
比如就书信而言,不要以为它的写作十分简单。写信写了十几年了,还有错。实际上,真正能够规范地全部书写正确书信格式的人,可以说是凤毛麟角。有的人对此不以为然,书信格式错了,不也照样收到,意思也能理解。但它不知道,它所体现的语文修养却是有天壤之别。就像吃饭一样,有的人用脏手抓饭往嘴里塞,有的人却用高级餐具进餐,其风格的粗鲁和优雅是不可相比的。
三、注重应用文的语言特征
应用文作为一种实用性文体,语言上与其他文体相比较,主要表现出“朴实、沿习、多元、明确、简练、生动”等特征。
1、朴实——开门见山、自然质朴
文学作品属形象思维范畴,主要用场景渲染、人物描写、心理刻画等手法塑造出活生生的艺术形象来感染读者,即“以情动人”。语言上特别重视积极的修辞手法,特别讲究动词、形容词的锤练。论文写作属逻辑思维范畴,以对事理的解剖分析、综合归纳、逻辑推论“以理服人”,语言上特别重视语法、逻辑和专业术语的准确。
应用文是一种处理公私事务的工具,是用来说明事实、解决实际问题的,侧重于“以事告人”。所以语言要求朴实无华、开门见山。
2、沿习——文有定型、约定俗成。
一般说“文无定法”,但写作应用文应当遵循“惯例”。应当符合相对稳定的格式、表述规定的内容、使用习惯的语言。标题、开头、结尾、转折过渡采用习惯的用语。
3、多元——文字数据、表格图形。
一般文章多用文字表述,应用文除了用文字表述外,还可以用数据、表格、图形来说明事理,可谓“语出多门”。特别是财经类应用文则大量采用数据、表格、统计图形。
商务类文体写作
4、明确——确切无误、明白通晓。
文学创作讲“文贵曲”,而应用文有很强的政策性、实用性。要求语言明确,使人一看就懂,一懂就可执行、答复或办理,不能模棱两可,不能有再创造的余地。明确特征要求,不用或少用比喻,不用或少用具有描写性和感性色彩的词语。
5、简练——言简意赅、文约事丰。
“简”本来是战国至魏、晋时代的书写材料,是削制成的狭长竹片或木片。由于这种书写材料制作的困难,就要求作者必须言简意赅,尽量争取以少少的文字,容进多多的意思。“练”指把丝麻或布帛煮得柔软洁白,这里是要求文字写得明白。
应用文写得简实、炼是高速传递信息的需要,是节省时间、提高办事效率的需要,也是朴明确特征在“文字量”上的体现
6、生动——有声有色、活泼鲜明。
语气庄重、言简意明、直来直去、明白显露是应用文用语的基本要求。但在调查报告、总结等应用文种里,也可以用生动活泼的语言表达事理、吸引读者,感染读者。诚然,上述应用文文种不会象文学作品那样借用种种写作手法来塑造形象,只可以有限使用比喻、借代、夸张等修辞技巧,穿插使用成语、俗语、歇后语等增强文章的吸引力、感染力、新鲜感。
应用文不但是人类在长期的社会实践活动中形成的一种文体,而且是人们传递信息、处理事务、交流感情的工具,有的应用文还用来作为凭证和依据。可是随着社会的发展,人们在工作和生活中的交往越来越频繁,事情也越来越复杂,包括政府单位在内,很多应用文写作不规范的行为,如何更好规范应用文写作呢?
2.如何更好在社会各界推广应用文写作?
随着经济和社会的发展,人们在工作和生活中的交往越来越频繁,事情也越来越复杂,因此应用文的功能也就越来越多了,主要体现在以下几个方面:
一、新闻媒体所说的消息,也叫新闻。新闻这一概念有狭义和广义之分。狭义的单指消息;广义的指消息、通讯、报告文学、特写、评论、新闻照片等等。新闻消息是我们几乎天天在报上和电视上见面的一种应用文。在各种新闻宣传形式中,消息是目前世界上发表量最大、受众最多的一种文体。它在报纸、广播电台、电视台每天安排的新闻节目中,大多放在前面,而且使用频率最高的一种文体。在西方发达国家,每天播出消息的数量占整个新闻节目的70%、80%,有的甚至超过这个比例,因此在新闻方面加强应用文推广有着至关重要。
二、营销人才不仅要精通网络信息,能熟练运用电子工具,而且还必须具有较强得应用文写作能力,也就是说具有较强的应用文写作能力是衡量现代营销人才的重要标准。所以说对市场营销专业学生的应用文写作能力的培养在现代营销活动中具有极其重要的作用。
三、应用文是国家党政机关、企事业单位、民主党派、社会团体以及广大人民群众,在日常工作、生产、科研、学习和生活中办理公务和个人事务时所常用的具有直接使用价值和某种惯用体势的一类文章总称。它是人们交流思想、互通情况、解决问题、处理事务的工具。因此在国家党政机关、企事业单位、民主党派、社会团体加强应用文推广有着至关重要。
四、应用文在日常工作、生产、科研、学习和生活中办理公务和个人事务涉及的范围比较宽广,不仅体现在导游、海报、启事、礼仪类文体写作、主持词的写作、演讲词的写作、名片和请柬的创意与写作,而且体现在求职应聘类文体写作、策划类文体写作、商务类文体写作、报告类文体写作、法律类文体写作、实用类文体写作、常见公文写作等等之类的文体中。
总之,应用文写作有很明确的对象和目的,内容强调真实不能有虚构、夸张、什么比喻、拟人等等,它的文风相对来说就要朴实一些,不要凭个人好恶主观臆断。应用文写作在思维上侧重逻辑思维,讲究逻辑体现在文章结构上。就是有条理清楚、井井有条,断了之间有明显的逻辑关系。陈述事项界限清晰,不交叉、不困乱,内容前后讲究因果,材料能够证明观点。应用文有规定的格式,写作过程要按固定格式来写,不能标新立异要遵守惯用或通用格式来写。应用写作的目的是实用,语言要求简洁、明确、概括、精炼、恰当使用词语、专业词语。应用文写作体现了实用性、功用性、固定性、真实性、明确性、针对性、客观性、逻辑性、规范性、简明性、是应用文所应具备的基本特征,也是对应用文写作的基本要求。
所以在社会各界推广应用文写作对国家经济和社会发展有着极其重要和积极促进的重要作用和意义。

Letters are important means of communication.Generally speaking, there are two types of letters, business letters and personal letters.By “business” we do not mean buying, selling, or exchanging goods with people or companies but important matters we have to discuss or deal with.Business letters may be a recommendation, a job/school application, an inquiry, an answer, an invitation, a complaint, etc.In other words, all letters which are not “personal“ are ”business“ letters.1.Form A letter has six parts: the heading, the inside address, the salutation, the body, the complimentary close, and the signature.(1)The heading The heading gives the full address of the writer and the date of the letter.It is usually written or typed in the upper right-hand corner of the first page.It may be either blocked or indented.It may or may not have end punctuation.If letterhead stationery is used, the date is often centered two or three spaces below the printed matter, though it may be written flush with either margin.The British may put a comma after each line in the heading and end the address with a period, but the Americans do not: British Ms.Jennifer Stone, 20 Fairview Drive, Eastbourne, 2BU.England.Take care that the date of your letter is made perfectly clear(See III.Notes)
(2)The inside address The inside address, which is often omitted in personal letters, gives the name and full address of the addressee.It goes above the salutation.As in the heading, the use or nonuse of end punctuation depends on the preference of the writer.BN18
American
Ms.Jennifer Stone 20 Fairview Drive Eastbourne, BN18 2BU England(3)The salutation The salutation is a greeting to the addressee.It is written flush with the left margin two spaces below the inside address.The British tend to use a comma after the salutation and the Americans a colon, especially in a business letter.The first name(Christian name)may be used in friendly personal letters.But in the salutation of a business letter, the surname of the addressee is used, as in the following examples: British: Dear Professor/Prof.Smith, Dear Mr./Dr.Stein, Dear Ms.Santos,(or Dear Miss Santos,)Dear Ms.Singh,(or Dear Mrs.Singh,)
American: Dear Professor/Prof.Smith: Dear Mr./Dr.Stein: Dear Ms.Santos:(or Dear Miss Santos:)Dear Ms.Singh:(or Dear Mrs.Singh:)
What merits the attention of Chinese students is that they should use Ms.when the marital status of a woman addressee is not known or when she(married or not)prefers the Ms.In letters to organizations, or to persons whose names you do not know, the following greetings are used:
Dear Sir:(or Dear Madam:)(or Dear Sir or Madam: if you do not know the sex of your addressee)
To whom it may concern:(only for testimonials and things of that kind)
Dear colleague:(to a person who is of the same profession as the writer, and usually used when you are sending a circular to many people)(4)The body In the body of the letter, all paragraphs should begin flush with the left margin(the block style)or begin with an equal indention(the indented style), and the letter is usually single-spaced within-the paragraph and doubled-spaced between paragraphs.(5)The complimentary close The closing of a business letter consists of three parts: complimentary close, signature, and the typed name.In the complimentary close, only the first word is capitalized.The close is followed by a comma.The conventional complimentary closes in business letters are: ”Yours truly,“ ”Yours Sincerely,“ ”Sincerely yours,“ ”Sincerely,” “Cordially yours” or ”Yours cordially.”
The close of a personal letter is of a more free choice.“Affectionately,” “Fondly,” “ Yours with love, ” “With best wishes, “ ”Love,” “Yours,” ”As ever, “ etc., can be used apart from ”Yours sincerely, “ ”Yours truly, “ etc.;which one of these you use depends on your exact relationship with the addressee.The closing can be put either on the right-hand side or left-hand side of the page.Some writers even prefer to have it in the middle one or two spaces below the last line of the letter.(6)The signature In a business letter the handwritten signature is placed between the complimentary close and the typed name of the writer, and writer's official capacity is indicated after the typed name.In a personal letter, you may sign your full name, your first name, or even a nickname in accordance with your relationship with the addressee.If you send along with your letter such things as a resume check, a receipt, etc., write Enclosure(s)or EHC.to remind addressee that besides the letter, there is another material in the envelope.If you happen to have something additional to say after you have finished the letter, you may begin with P.S., which stands for ”postscript“, and then write what you wish to add.2.Language The style and tone of letters can be greatly varied.Generally speaking, the style and tone of a personal letter differ from those business letters—the former is casual, whereas the latter is form However, for either of them, the language should be clear and direct.Business letters should be polite in lone, exact and concise wording.387 Paragraphs in business letters tend to be short.Very often you find the first and last paragraphs are single-sentence paragraphs.The first paragraph may be a single sentence that indicates the subject and purpose of the letter.If necessary, one more sentence may be used to refer to previous correspondence when such correspondence needs to be remembered.When you answer a business letter, it is advisable to identify it by mentioning its subject and date.Always remember that you begin and end a business letter with a cour-teous tone.The following are some useful expressions with which to begin or end you letters.(1)Business letters 1)Invitation * I am writing on behalf of all the members of our Literature Society to ask...* We should be very grateful if you could give a talk on ”The Latest Development in...“ to our...Club on Saturday afternoon, June 20th...2)Application for entry to a college * I am writing to ask whether you could send me some information about your college and for the application forms...* I am writing to you in the hope that I may obtain an opportunity to do graduate study in your university...' •

I enclose the forms which you sent me and also two photographs...(2)Personal letters * I am sorry that it has taken me so long to reply.., but...You will be very glad to hear that...* I thought you would be interested to hear of...* Best regards to you and your family.* Please remember me to.../ Please say hello for me to...* Please accept our thanks in advance.* If there is anything I can do for you, please do not hesitate to let me know.* In the meantime, please accept my very best wishes for a complete and speedy recovery.*...join me in sending you our warmest congratulations/in conveying our sincere sympathy to members of his family.390 3.Addressing an Envelope Write the full name and the address of the addressee in the middle part of the envelope.The return address which gives the full name and address of the writer is placed in the upper left-hand corner of the envelope.Note that the name of the addressee is written first;then the number of his/her house, followed by the name of the road/street, on the same line;then the town/city in which he/ she lives;then the county/state and the zip code;and lastly the country, if the letter is an international one.Li Mingxin

Dear Mr.Stratton: I would like to apply for the summer position of proofreader which you advertised in the June 16 issue of Beijing Youth.Currently I am a junior at Beijing Foreign Studies University, where I am working toward a BA degree in English.Last summer I held a similar position with Beijing Review, working as their summer replacement in the editorial department.I enjoyed the seemingly tedious work which I knew would further my professional goal of becoming an editor.The experience also helped me improve my typing skills, which I understand, is required for the job I am applying for.Mr.Liu Kailu, head of the editorial department thought well of my ability, enthusiasm, and devotion.He said that he would welcome a call from you if you wish to know more about me.His office telephone number is 831-0645.In Beijing Foreign Studies University I have been working hard and doing well in the major courses.I am fluent in both written and spoken English and my reading skills are also satisfactory.Besides, I am learning computer languages such as Basic and Fortune, so I believe I can work for your magazine without much additional training.My English teacher.Professor Shi Danian has kindly agreed to write a reference for me if it is required.400 I am available for an interview every afternoon except Wednesday.Please contact me at 842-2277, ext.309 or P.0.Box 235, Beijing Foreign Studies University, 100081.Thank you for your consideration.Sincerely yours, Su Hua Dear Professor Cooper: I have read the annual prospectus issued by your school and found that it has the best graduate program of cross-cultural studies, which you are currently presiding over.I am greatly interested in the program and hope that I may do my MA work under your instruction.I am 28 years old and am now working in the Chinese People's Association for Friendship with Foreign Countries, in charge of affairs in the Pacific areas.I love my work, as it brings me into contact with all kinds of people.At the same time, I feel the urgent need to improve myself and update my knowledge so that I can do my work better.I graduated from Beijing Foreign Studies University in 1989, majoring in English and majoring in cross-cultural communications.In college I took such courses as World History, American Society and Culture, Introduction to European Culture, and Cultural Exchanges between the East and the West, which were all conducted in English.So I believe I will have no difficulty in my MA studies.401
I have broad interests in various fields such as history, literature, music, and photography.I love sports, too;I joined the Literary Society in college and was also on the English Department's volleyball team.I have discussed my application with three of my former professors, who have urged me to apply and have kindly written letters of recommendation for me, which I enclose with this letter.I would be very grateful if you could send me the necessary application forms and any information about your scholarships or teaching assistantships.I look forward very much to hearing from you soon.Sincerely yours, Zhao Jingsheng Enclosures
