（BlockFormat齐头式）寄件人姓名和地址收信人姓名和地址英文信封(Envelope)的写法

（右缩式IndentedFormat）寄件人姓名和地址收信人姓名和地址※英文地址的写法和中文相反，口诀：由小到大

(ex:号—弄—巷—路/街—城市—国家)地址的书写顺序是由小到大:第一行写寄出信人的门牌号码，写街道名称;第二行先写县市、城镇名称，再写省或州名称，往右空两个字母的位置，再写上邮编。如果是寄往国外的信件，第三行写出寄信人所在国家的名称。如要说明信件由何种邮路递送或信件为何种类别，一般在信封正面的左下角注明。航空

信头包括寄信人地址（通常写在信笺的右上方）或某公司的名称、地址、电话、电传、传真、邮编、电子信箱地址或网址等。

Date日期应写在寄信人地址下方，表达方式各不相同。通常英式按日/月/年的顺序，而美式按月日年的顺序。注意：年份写全，不可省略；月份用英文单词表示，不可用数字替代（一般信函可缩写，较正式的公函需写全）；日期用阿拉伯数字基数词表示即可，如May7,2006;23September,2005日期的几种写法：

a．July7，1998

b．1stOctober,1998

c．30Nov.,1997

d．Sep.3rd,1999

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。月份：除May，June，July外，其它的月份都由其前三个字母表示，September是前四个字母。January——Jan．一月['dʒænjuəri]

February——Feb．二月['februəri]

March——Mar.三月[mɑ:tʃ]April——Apr．四月['eiprəl]

May——May．五月[mei]

June——Jun.六月[dʒu:n]July——Jul.七月[dʒu(:)'lai]August——Aug．八月['ɔ:gəst]September——Sept．九月[səp'tembə]October——Oct．十月[ɔk'təubə]November—Nov．十一月[nəu'vembə]December——Dec．十二月[di'sembə]

InsideAddress信内地址应写在信笺左上方，与信封上的地址完全一致。第一行写收信人姓名（称呼语+全名）；商务信函中还需另起一行写出职务；收信人地址应确切完整。Arrangethefollowinginformationintoletterheadorinsideaddress:China/Beijing100021/BeijingMetal/President/LinFang/Eastlane/234LinFangPresidentofBeijingMetal234Eastlane,Beijing100021ChinaSalutation称呼应写在信内地址下，其左边要与信内地址第一行对齐。英文书信的称呼一般都是以Dear…或Mydear…开头的。1.亲近熟悉的人:Dear/Mydear+称呼或名字。2长辈、关系一般、不相识：Dear+“先生/女士/教授”3机关、团体、公司、工厂或学校：DearSirorMadam,ToWhomItMayconcern.有时直接用Gentlemen(复数)。①对父母、兄弟、姐妹等；

a．Father,

b．MydearMother,

c.DearSister,

d.DearTom,

②对亲戚：

a．MydearAuntie,

b．DearCousin,

c．MydearCousin,③对朋友、同学

a．Mydearfriend,

b．DearMrJackson,

c．MydearMrJackson,

d．DearSir,④对未婚女子：

a．DearMissLuce,

b．MydearMissLuce,

⑤对一般女子，不论是否结婚：

a．Madame,

b．DearMadame,

⑥对已婚女子：

a．DearMrsHelenJackson,

b．MydearMrsHelenJackson,

⑦对公司、工厂、学校等：

a．DearSirs,

b．Sirs,

c．Gentlemen,Body语言要得体，简单明了，措词礼貌。称呼下面隔一两行开始写正文。一般说来，开头直接表达写信的目的，中间对目的具体说明，结尾表达希望祝愿等。根据英国传统做法，缩头式要在信文每一段缩进五或六个字母的空间，有时可能会缩进更多。段与段之间不空行。齐头式在商务英语书信中使用得非常普遍。它的突出特点就是开头顶格写，段与段之间空两到三行，以便于区分。常用的开头语有：IhavereceivedyourletterofJulyIst.7月1日来信已经收悉。

Ihavethepleasuretotellyouthat…….很高兴告诉你……。

Iamverymuchdelightedtoreceiveyourletter.非常高兴收到你的来信。Itismyhonortoinformyouthat……

很荣幸告诉你……。

常用的结束套话有：1.Iamlookingforwardtohearingfromyou盼早日回信。2.Withbestregards.祝好。3.Thankyouforyourhelp感谢你的帮助！4.Withmybestwishesforyoursuccess.祝你成功。5.Wishingyouahappyholiday.祝假日愉快！6.Hopingtohearfromyousoon.希望能尽快收到你的回信。a．Waitingforyourgoodnews,

b．Lookingforwardtoyourearlyreply,

c．Hopingtohearfromyousoon,

d．Hopingyouareenjoyinggoodhealth,

e．RegrettingthatIcan’tgiveyouamorefavoritereply,

f．RegrettingthetroubleI’mcausingyou,

g．Wishingyoueverysuccess,

h．Wishingyouapleasantjourney,

i．WishingyouahappyNewYear,结束语在正文之后隔一两行的偏右方开始写出。开头字母用大写，以后的字母用小写，最后一个词后面用逗句。常用的结束语有：

一般非正式的关系：

Yourssincerely,（真诚地）

上级和长者：

Yoursrespectfully,（恭敬地

）

Faithfullyyours,（忠实,诚心诚意）５结束语（ComplimentaryClose）

亲密的关系：

Love,

Yourslove,

YoursAffectionately,（热情地,体贴地）

Withlove,

Lovinglyyours,

Yoursever,

Yourstruly,

Yoursfaithfully,

Mostsincerely,

Faithfullyyours,在结束语的下方是签名，先手写出，再打出来。如果收信人不认识写出信人，可以在署名前用括号标出Mr.、Miss或Ms。在名称下面可注上头衔。如：

Yourssincerely,

LucyBlake(手写)

LucyWheeler邀请信

当邀请某位朋友参加活动，如交游、宴会时，可以写一封邀请信。信的语气应该谦逊，热情。GeneralIntroduction

书信是传递信息、交流情感最常用的方式之一，特别是在当今日益增长的涉外活动中，英文书信尤其必不可少。什么样的英文书信能让收信人准确地理解写信人的意图，而又得体的传达情感呢？首先应做到清楚（Clarity）。书信的内容一定要写得清楚、准确，让人读后能明确理解写信人的目的、意图、其二应做到简洁（Conciseness）。在人们的工作、生活中，大家都很容易接受简洁、通顺的语言，而繁杂冗长的语言只会令人生厌。所以写书信时应该避繁就简，用简短的段落、简短的句子来构成一篇简短易懂的书信。其三应做到礼貌（Courtesy）。书信应写得得体、有礼貌，同时要朴实，不要使人感到做作、虚伪。这就是书信得3C原则。书信的种类很多，本讲只介绍邀请信、感谢信、祝贺信、慰问信、吊唁信、道歉信、投诉信等七种。第一节邀请信邀请信是邀请某人进午餐、晚餐，参加宴会、茶话会、舞会，观看戏剧、电影及邀请参加学术活动、出席仪式、典礼等社交活动的信函。根据社交活动的性质、场合不同，通常运用不同的邀请方式。（其中之一是请柬，我们在“卡片英语”中已作介绍）

1。邀请参加宴会

DearTom,WeareplanningadinnerpartytocelebratethethirtiethanniversaryofProfessorLiMing’steachingatLuojiaHotelandwewantyoutocome.It’snextSaturday,Jan.theseventh,atsixo’clock.Wedohopeyoucanmakeit,aswearelookingforwardwithgreatpleasuretoseeingyou.AffectionatelyyoursLarry2.邀请看电影DearJane,WehavefourticketsforafamousfilmshownatGuangmingCinema,TheLongestDay,Friday,theninth.WillyouandLinMingjoinus?We’llbelookingforyouateightsharpFridaynightinfrontofthecinema,sodon’tdisappointus!Warmestregards.Alice

当收到邀请信后，应该回信明确表示是否接受邀请，以便别人好安排活动，并应对别人的邀请表示感谢。

DearLarry,Thankyouverymuchforyourinvitation.Itwillbeagreatpleasureformetocometoyourdinnerpartyontheseventhatsixo’clock.ProfessorLiMingismuchrespectedbyallofusandIshallbegladtoattendsuchapartyinhishonor.Thankyouforthinkingofme.AffectionatelyTomDearClare:Iamverygladtogetyourinvitationtoyourpartyandthankyouverymuch.ButI’mverysorrytotellyouthatIwon’tbeabletoattendyourpartyasImustgotoWuhantogathersomeinformationformypaperthisweekend.Icertainlysupposeitwillbeawonderfulpartyandyouallwillhavealotoffun.Bestwishes!Trulyyours,TommyDearAlice,Ithinkyou’dbetterasksomeothercoupleforFriday.MyhusbandisinShanghaiandwon’tbebackforanotherweek.WaittillhehearswhatawonderfuleveninghemissedwithyouandFrank!Thanksforaskingus,Alice,I’mcertainlysorrywecan’tsay“yes”!YoursJane

另一种常见的邀请信是邀请参加会议、学术活动、典礼、仪式等。邀请参加学术会议的信一般由会议组委会某一负责人来写。也应写得热情有礼，并对被邀请者得威望和学术水平等表示推崇和赞誉。应写明会议得名称、时间、地点寄有关事宜，以便对方考虑好后再作决定。DearProfessorZhou,

OnbehalfoftheOhioStateUniversityandtheIEEEComputerSociety,Iwouldbeverypleasedtoinviteyoutoattendandchairasessionoftheforthcoming2007InternationalConferenceonParallelDataProcessingtobeheldinBellaire,Michigan,fromAugust25thtoAugust28th,2007.Youareaninternationallyacclaimedscholarandeducator.YourparticipationwillbeamongthehighlightsoftheConference.

第二节感谢信

感谢信是用来对馈赠礼物者或曾经得到某人得关怀、照顾表示感谢。对他人得慰问信、祝贺信也要表示感谢。在西方国家，当你在朋友或亲友处小住一段时间，离开后，也应该给对方写一封短信表示感谢。感谢信应写得真挚，表达感激之情，不能给人一种草率得印象，由于感谢得对象、原因不同，感谢得内容不同，用语也不一样，应作出适当得选择。

DearSandy,Whenyouleftapackageformeyesterday,Ihaddifficultywaitinguntilmybirthdaytoopenit.Idon’tknowhowtothankyouforsuchanaffectivepresent.Itissomethingthatwillgivemepleasureforalongtimetocome.Pleaseacceptmysincerethanksandbestwishes.Cordially,SusanDearProfessorRose,Manythanksforthegreatfavoryoudidme,andthekindinterestyoutookinme.Iamgladtoinformyouthatbyyourinvaluablerecommendation,IhaveobtainedthepositionIappliedfor.Ishallexertmybesteffortsinperformingmyduties,andtrytobeworthyofyourassistance.Mybestregards.Respectfullyyours,JimDearMissAllen,ThankyouverymuchforyourkindletterofApril14th,2004,concerningourservice.Itisalwaysgratifyingtoreceiveacomplimentaryletterlikeyours,whichindicatesthatoureffortstoserveyouareappreciated.Youmaybesurethatourdepartmentwillreceiveappropriaterecognitionforajobwelldone.Thankyouagainforyourcourtesy.Cordially,SmithDearProfessorAnthony,Thankyouforadelightfulstay.Yourhomeislovely,yourmealsdelectable,andIenjoyedthefunandcompanionship.Iamstillthinkingaboutitandenjoyingitinretrospect.Manythanksagainforyourwarmhospitality.Cordially,Tom第三节祝贺信在西方得社交生活中，当得知朋友订婚、结婚、生孩子、毕业、升职时，都要写信表示祝贺，如若知道朋友过生日，也要写上一封短笺表示祝贺。（祝贺信的另一种形式就是我们在“卡片英语”一节中讲过的“贺卡”）

DearShelly,MayIjoinyourmanyfriendsandadmirersinwishingyouahappybirthday?IhavehelddearyourfriendshipduringthelasttenyearsandIlookforwardtoenjoyingitformanyyearstocome.Here’shopingyouhavemanyhappybirthdaysinstoreforyou.Withaffectionatebirthdaywishes.Sincerely,Alice
