  下面是CN人才网小编提供的英语高考书信作文指导,快来看看吧。

  书信是人们在日常生活和工作中进行交际的工具,也是高考英语作文中常见的考试文体。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。

  一般格式

  一﹑开始部分

  (1)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

  (2)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。

  (3)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。

  (4)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,

  精选范文

  Your address

  Month, Date, year

  Receiver's address

  Dear ...,

  二﹑正文

  (5) 正文(Body of the letter)

  正文是指一封信的内容。正文紧接着称呼下开始写,通常每段开头往右缩4-5个字母距离。说话用开门见山,一开始就说明写信的目的。内容在保证说清楚问题的前提下要尽量简短明了。

  个人信件开头的第一句常可用这样的句子

  Your letter of April 12 arrived this morning.

  I was glad to have received your latter dated April 12.

  三﹑署名

  (6)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

  Dear Dr. Wise,

  I'm a senior 3 student. Since I became a graduating student, I have been staying up late to finish piles of exercises. I often feel sleepy in class. As a result, I miss lots of key points and it usually takes me more time to finish my homework, which makes it difficult for me to concentrate on what I'm doing. What's worse, I haven't made any progress, which made me lose interest and confidence in studying. What should I do?

  Sincerely,

  Wang Hai

  参考范文

  One possible version:

  Dear Wang Hai,

  Your problem is not unusual among the senior 3 students and I'll give you some suggestions based on my own experiences and many others'.

  First of all, make the most of every class. Not only do your teachers possess all the knowledge for the college entrance exam, but they are experienced in making the knowledge yours and in coping with exams.

  Second, find out your problems and go all out to solve them. Exercises are not merely a means of consolidating what you have learnt but also a means of finding what you are weak in. If you have a problem, make everything, such as books, teachers or the Internet, a source to tackle it. Last, enough sleep and proper exercise play a key role in achieving high efficiency in our studies, so don't stay up too late and make daily exercise a habit.

  After all, efficiency means everything in the third year. Wish you a bright future.

  Yours,

  Dr. Wise
