【摘要】本文对外贸商务英语信件写作中的几个问题进行了分析,供广大同学参考。
一、函电写作的用词与格式商务英语书信是指交易时所使用的通信手段。
在美国,常用Businesswriting,它包括书信、电报、电话、电传、报告书、明信片等。英语和美语在书信体例方面存在着一定的差异,比如信头和称呼、书信格式、遣词、结尾客套语等均有所不同。一般来说,英国书信较为保守,许多英国人喜欢用老式书信体,用词较为正式刻板,而美国书信语言非常有生气、有活力,格式也较为简便。因此当我们写信的对象是英国或其旧殖民地国家时,要使用标准式英语Queen’sEng-lish;如果写信的对象是美国或美国势力范围的地区时,就要用美国英语。商业英文书信,一般都要求用打字机或电脑整齐地打印,左边各行开头垂直的,称为垂直式或齐头式(Blockstyle),美国常用这种格式;每段的第一个词缩进去,称为缩进式或锯齿式(indentedstyle),英国常用此格式。垂直式的职务及签名都在左边的边栏界线,这种格式,在极度重视工作效率的美国公司,已普遍采用。正式的商业英语书信要在称呼的上方写上收信公司名称和地址或收信人的名字全称、职务及地址,称为信内地址(Insideaddress)。信内地址的写法也有垂直式或缩进式之分,垂直式或称美国式将各行并列,缩进式或称英国式将各行依次退缩。
二、函电写作的礼貌原则礼貌原则在对外领域中的作用主要是帮助交流双方建立一定的社会联系,作出礼节性的表示,扮演交际协调沟通的角色。
外贸英语有其自身独有的词汇、用法和习惯表达方法.因此。要熟练自如地进行翻译,很大程度上取决于能否掌握其语言特点和习惯.下面介绍礼貌原则的一些语言特点和翻译方法:
1信函套语多中外信函中,凡向对方提出某种要求,常用“请”字,中文只用一个字.外贸英语中,仅用please是不够的,习惯用其他更亲切、客气的词语“.请”字表达主要有下面几种结构:(1)使用Weshall(should)begrateful/can/will/could/would?结构.请告你方市场详情.Weshallbegrateful/-.请迅速寄来备有存货的中、上品质棉花样品与价格表,不胜感激.W.(2)使用“Wewouldappreciate?”,“Itwouldbeappreciated+clause”结构.请报50t花生实盘.W.请寄贵公司图解目录一份.I-(3)使用“kindly”.请将两份提单分别邮寄,同时开来30天汇票以便承兑.KindlysendUS2BillsofL,.
2突出对方本位(youattitude)为体现礼貌原则,在人称上少用第一人称(I,we)作主语,采用第二人称或第二人称物主代词+名词,以突出“youattitude”.汉译时,多采用谦辞,如称对方为“贵公司”,称自己一方为“本公司”,“我公司”,“敝公司”等?.Y.早日发盘为感.F。yourend-users,.借此机会附上两套资料,供贵方和用户参考.I,.如果贵方无意购买我方产品,烦请将货单转寄给与贵公司有业务往来的其他商行。
三、措词婉约、语气缓和外贸语言讲究婉转,遣词用字含蓄.即使是贸易开展不利,或双方分歧较大,也不宜用生硬的、讨伐式的语言。
须知外贸中婉转的语言比强硬的措词更有力量,句型上常选用:(1)用“it”作形式主语,强调客观性.I.这样做一般认为是不妥的.I-cialloss.不言而喻,迟误发货势必会造成经济损失.(2)用被动语态指出对方错误.W.我们必须要向贵方指出:贵方最后一批装运的货物与所签协议标准不符合.我们对此感到惊讶与失望.T.我们这方面遵守了协议,而他们那方面却没有遵守.(3)用让步从句表示拒绝、分歧、妥协.W,.感谢贵方订单,然而由于我方供货任务重,非常遗憾,我们不能在承受新的业务。WDaqingcrudein10,O00metricctons,Isfromourregular虽然我们把货都卖给了老客户,我们还是设法给你挤了一船舶万吨大庆油.

Dear Miss Liang,
I am writing to thank you for your hard work for me. With your help, I make great progress in my study. A year ago, my study was bad and I didn’t want to learn, but you never give me up. You told me that I was clever. As long as I work hard, I would be great. In this year, you cared much about my study and helped me a lot. When I made mistakes, you always pointed them out and helped me to correct. Now, my study is much better than before, and I want to express my gratitude to you. Hope you everything goes well.
Sincerely yours,
Lily
Dear Sales Manager,
亲爱的销售经理，
This letter is a complaint concerning the actions of one of your salespersons. On Tuesday, May 5, 2012, around 2 .., I went to your store to look for a T-shirt. When I asked a salesperson, Ms. Wang for help in finding my size, she informed me that she was busy and I would have to find one myself. I explained that the reason why I came to her was that I couldn’t find one. She then said in a rude tone that if I couldn’t find one, it meant that the store didn’t have it, and that I needed to look somewhere else.
这封信是关于你的一个销售人员的起诉。上星期二，2012年5月5日，下午2点左右。，我去你店里找一件T恤。当我问一个业务员，王女士在找我的尺寸的帮助，她告诉我，她很忙，我会找到一个自己。我解释了我为什么来到她的理由是我找不到。然后她说粗鲁的声音，如果我找不到人，这意味着商店没有它，和我需要到别处看看。
I felt that Ms Wang was rude. I hope that you will look into the matter: I shop frequently at your store and I look forward to a more pleasurable shopping experience next time.
我觉得，王女士很粗鲁。我希望你会调查此事：我经常在你的店店我期待一个更愉快的购物经验，下一次。
标准书信格式范例_给圣诞老人的一封信700字
敬爱的圣诞老人：
您好！
之所以提前给您写信，是因为我想您在今年的圣诞之夜实现我的三个愿望。
第一个愿望是希望您能让全天下穷苦的人们都能过上幸福的生活。每当我和爸爸妈妈逛街时，总能在路边看见许多因为身体残疾而在乞讨的人。每次看见他们，我总会心中一酸：这些人身体本来就残疾，又没有家，每天只能去乞讨，路边就是他们的床。这些人当中，有年迈的老人，有褴褛的妇女，甚至还有跟我年纪相仿的孩子——他们应该和我一样呀，应该有爸爸妈妈的陪伴，应该和同学一起上学的……可如今却不管是刮风下雨，还是烈日当头，他们仍旧不得不在路边乞讨。在这里，我想请您让那些路边乞讨的残疾人、病人恢复健康，这样他们就不需要再在路边乞讨了，就可以靠自己的劳动去赚钱，活得更有尊严。
我接着说我的第二个愿望。那就是我的妈妈工作很忙，很少有时间休息，所以也很少陪我。每当我看到别的小朋友有妈妈陪伴时，我就会特别羡慕。所以我希望您能让我的.妈妈，不，让全天下工作繁忙的妈妈能够更清闲、更轻松一些，让全天下的妈妈都能多陪陪自己的孩子，让我们能快快乐乐地成长！
我的最后一个愿望是希望您能给我一本全面而神奇的书。这本书里不但有科学知识，有漫画故事，还有许多令人捧腹大笑的笑话……简单的说，就是我想看什么里面就有什么——因为我是个爱看书的孩子，经常会为了找不到喜欢的书而发愁。有了这样一本神奇的书，我就再也不需要为到处找书而烦恼了，就可以把花在找书上的时间用来学习，就可以学到更多的知识了。
圣诞老爷爷，说到这儿，您会不会觉得我要求得太多了呢？不管您能不能看到我的信，能不能理解我的想法，我都希望您能实现我的愿望，给需要帮助的人一点帮助，让他们活得更加快乐和幸福。
敬礼！

Dear Liu Qi,
I, the undersigned, am a senior in Peking University. The xxxxBeijing Olympic Games is coming in four years. After watching the xxxxAthens Olympic Games, I can not help writing to you.
First of all, here is my suggestion for the preparation work of the xxxxBeijing Olympic Games. The construction work of the sports building must be completed in time according to the contract. In Athens, the swimming stadium was not accomplished in time so that the event had to be held in the open air, which has brought negative effect on the performance of athletes. In one word, to protect the international image of China and ensure the Olympic competition, we must finish our preparation work well and in time.
Last but not least important, I want to express my wish to be a volunteer. In the first place, it is the duty of every Chinese to do his bit for the xxxxOlympic Games. In the second place, I have a good command of foreign languages. I can speak English, Russian, and Japanese. Therefore I can be a qualified volunteer.
I am looking forward to your reply.
Sincerely Yours
Dear principals:
Hello,I know you deal with a host of problems every day every day,but your busy schedule took some time to take a look are a long,busy things to burn every day,organized in schools.
Here,I took the liberty to put forward two proposals to you:
toilet install a we are students,toilets without doors,after all,can we have some trouble, you are concerned about individual students can damage or random graffiti,you can this demerit points or penalties,mutual supervision of students!
us a covered car park of wind and far away we have hit the car,sometimes wind or rain,and tire easily or rusted,you bear to see colorful car rusting?So I hope you can give us a car on a House.
Above recommendations hope you adopt,if there is inappropriate,please indulge!敬爱的校长：
我知道您每天都日理万机，但请您在百忙之中抽出一点时间看一看。您是一校之长，每天都有忙不完的事情，使得学校井井有条。
在这里，我冒昧的向您提出俩个建议：
1、将每个厕所都安上一个门。因为我们都是中学生了，厕所没有门毕竟会对我们造成一定的困扰，带来不便。如果您担心个别同学会损坏或者胡乱涂鸦，您可以对此进行扣分或惩罚，让学生互相监督！
2、给我们一个可以遮风避雨的停车场。我们有的都是从很远的地方踩车来的，有时候刮风下雨，日晒雨淋的。车容易爆胎或生锈，您忍心看到原本色彩斑斓的车变得锈迹斑斑么？所以希望您能给我们的爱车安一个家。
以上建议望您采纳，如有不适合的，请多多包涵！

Dear Customer Service Representative,
I am writing to comp[ain about the bad delivery service of your company.
The IBM Desktop computer we ordered from your store two weeks ago finally arrived yesterday. There were not any signs of damage to the packing case at all, but when we opened it, we found, much to our surprise, that the back cover had been cracked and the screen had been scratched.
In view of this, I have decided to make a formal complaint against your delivery service. I sincerely hope that you will replace this computer as soon as possible. If this is not possible, I will have no alternative but to insist on a full refund.
I would appreciate anything you can do to help us in this matter.
Yours truly,

英语书信（一）
20 June
Dear Mr. Seaton，
Thank you very much for taking me with you on that splendid outing to London. It was the first time that I had seen the Tower or any of the other famous sights. If I'd gone alone, I couldn't have seen nearly as much, because I wouldn't have known my way about.
The weather was splendid on that day, which I thought was rare. I still remember some people told me that in Britain there was weather and no climate. During the same day, it might snow in the morning, rain at noon, shine in the afternoon and be windy before the night falls. So I think I was lucky.
I think the river trip was the best thing of all. ()London really came alive for me as we saw it from the Thames during that wonderful journey down to Greenwich. It was all tremendously exciting － a day that I shall never forget.
Thank you for giving me such a great birthday treat.
Yours sincerely,
Linda Chen
英语书信（二）
Dear Mr. Wang：
Thank you for taking the time to write your wonderful letter in support of MCEA (Maywood Chinese Education Association). Your letter clearly articulates all the major reasons children in Maywood will benefit from studying the Chinese language as part of their elementary school education. It provides invaluable support that will help making bilingual Chinese education a reality in Maywood public schools.
Although MCEA would like to see Palo Alto public schools implement the first bilingual Chinese kindergarten class in September of 2006, we have learned that the school district must take the time to understand how a new program will affect existing educational offerings, and to validate community interest. Nevertheless, MCEA, with more than 70 members, will continue to actively promote bilingual Chinese education in the Palo Alto public schools and will keep you apprised of the progress we make.
Thanks again for sending a letter in support of MCEA. We' will continue to do all we can to realize this program both for families of Chinese descent and those with a general interest in participating in the growing economic power of China.
George Chen

商务信函的重要性
也许你会问“商务信函真的这么重要吗”？
是的，答案是肯定的。
让我们一起来看看以下的调查结果。

[参考全美最畅销的贸易书籍“Building an Import-Export Business”] 以下5个方面是买家最关心的：
供应商如何回复买家的邮件？
当买家询问信息时，供应商是否完整答复所有问题？
供应商的信头是否写明了公司地址和传真号码？
供应商如何答复买家提出的要求？
供应商多久做出答复？
供应商是否愿意对产品进行修改？
买家询问多个问题时，供应商是否答复所有的问题？
供应商的信用如何？
供应商的银行信用记录如何？
供应商银行帐户开立的年数？
大致的通常收支情况？
银行给供应商的贷款额度？

供应商贸易往来的信用如何？
Dear teacher:
Hello!
Time flies. In a flash, we are in Grade 5. In this fruitful golden autumn, we welcome teachers day with the intoxicating fragrance of flowers.
When we walked into the gate of experimental primary school, we saw your kind face. You taught us to add, subtract, multiply and divide. Its also you who lead us into the door of knowledge and give us the golden key of knowledge Treasury. Lets work hard to find and explore. Maybe when our childish words may hurt you, but you still regard us as your naughty children.
No sunshine, no flowers, no teachers, no poets, writers, no famous Goldbach guess!
How many times have we seen you carefully correcting your homework? You are staring at it in detail, line by line, page by page. You wont leave until you have seen it. Because you know its childrens wings and steps. At this time, when we see you, we would like to hand over a cup of cool tea and say: teacher, you have worked hard! Some people say that the teacher is the gardener and cultivates talents from generation to generation. I think thats right. You are the gardener. We are the seedlings in spring. Your sweat is on the strong green leaves and your smile is on the bright flowers! No matter how busy and tired you are, you always appear in front of us full of spirit to teach us knowledge. How much effort have you paid for our growth and how many good nights have you sacrificed. The wrinkles on your forehead engrave a thousand threads of love; the white hair on your sideburns records years of hard work. Just as we will never forget our parents who have nurturing grace, we will never forget you, our enlightenment teacher.
Write this, we want to say to you, teacher, you are the angel in our heart forever!
Teacher, we are here to bless you: happy holidays, good health, young forever, the world is full of peaches and plums!
Best regards
Salute!
英文求职信函
dear sir／madame, your advertisement for a network maintenance engineer in the april 10student daily interested me because the position that you de- scribed sounds exactly like the kind of job i am seeking. according to the advertisement,your position requires a good university degree,bachelor or above in computer science or equivalent field and proficient in windows nt linux feel that i am competent to meet the will be graduating from xx university this year with a studies have included courses in computer control and management and i designed a control simulation system developed with microsoft visual and sql server. during my education,i have grasped the principles of my major subject area and gained practical only have i passed cet - 6,but more importantly i can communicate fluently in ability to write and speak english is a good standard. ?
混合式：每一段的首行缩进两格。落款在信末中间靠右下的位置。
齐头式：信的所有内容都靠左，段与段之间空一行。
英文信函的习惯用法，由以下几个方面组成：
(1)信头 The heading 信头是指信纸上印刷或打印的企业名称、厂称、地址、电话号码、电报挂号、主管人姓名等。通常情况下，公司都会专门印制带有信头的信笺纸，包括发信人的姓名，地址，电话，传真等。当我们撰写传统信件时，直接使用这种信笺纸就可以。
(2)编号和日期 The reference number and the date
方便以后查信使用。Your ref: （你方编号） Our ref: （我方编号）
日期通常打印在信头的右下方位置，或在寄信人姓名和地址的下方位置。日期的英式写法是日、月、年；美式写法是月、日、年。为了避免误解，日期、年份用数字表示，月份则用英文表示，第一个字母要大写，也可用缩写。比如May，(美式写法)；1，May，1998(英式写法)。
(3)信内地址 The inside address
与信封上的收信人名称和地址相同，通常打印在信纸的左侧，低于日期位置2—4行，也可在签字位置下2—4行。
书写收信单位名称时，应特别尊重对方的习惯，不能随意增删公司名称前的冠词The，也不能随意改用繁写及缩写，如Company与Co.之间不能互换，否则会被认为是不礼貌的行为。收信人地处的书写格式与信封相同。
(4)称谓 The salutation
在英文信函中，相同于“阁下”、“先生”等类礼貌性称谓，常用Dear sirs”；称呼企业，公司的妇女组织常用Madams，Ladies；无具体收信人姓名用Dear Sir or Madam 称呼收信者。
收信人是个人，就应在收信人姓名之前加称谓，如Mr.(先生)，Mrs.(夫人)，Miss(小姐)，Hon(用于称呼市长、部长、大使等)，Pres.(总经理、会长、总统等)，Prof.(教授)等等。
(5)开头语The open sentences
开头语没有统一的格式，但习惯上先用客套的语句把收到对方来信的日期，主题及简单内容加以综合叙述，使对方一目了然这是答复哪一封去信的。如果是第一次通信，也可以利用开头语作必要的自我介绍，并表明目的要求。开头语一般与正文分开，自成一节，要求简单明了。
(6)正文 The body of the letter
正文的地位和内容与中文书信相同。在英文商业信函中，信文从称谓下两行起书写，行间相距一行，段落间空两行。信文以占信纸的四分之三为宜，四周留出一定空白，每一行左起第一字要取齐，右起第一字不必一律取齐，但尽量要考虑到整齐美观。
(7)结尾语The closing sentences
结尾语一般用来总结文本所谈的事项，提示对收信人的要求，如“希望来信来函定货”，“答复询问”等，另外也附加一些略带客套的语气。正文结束后，另起一段写结尾语。
(8)结束语 The complimentary close
英文商业信函的结尾是写信人的谦称，相当于“敬上”的意思。若收信者为公司，谦称则常用：
Yours Truly，Truly Yours，Yours faithfully等；若收信者为个人，则常用：Yours sincerely，Sincerely yours等。需要注意的是，结尾的谦称后必须加逗号。
(9)签署 The signature
签署由两部分组成，一是写信人的签名，二是打印出的写信人的姓名。签名用钢笔或圆珠笔写在结尾谦称下5行的位置内。尽量不要用印章，用印章的话，说明该信件并非本人亲自过目，只是通函而已，不为人重视。为易于辨认，在签名下还应打印姓名，有时还将职衔一并打印。常见的职衔有：
Chairman of the Board of directors(董事长)，President或Genera1 Manager(总经理)，Director(董事)，Stand Director(常务董事)，Manager(经理)，Head of Department(职员)，Manageress(女经理)，
Head of a Department(处长)，Section chief(科长)等。
需要指出的是，写信人如要代表企业单位或代理签署时，应在结尾谦称下打印出全部大写的企业单位名称，然后才签署，以表明该信不是以写信人个人身份写的，信由所述事宜均由企业单位负责。
（10）、附件 Enclosure
如果信中有附件，应在左下角注明Encl. 或Enc.。
例如： Encls: 2 Invoices
Enc.: 1 B/Lading
(11)其它
商业信函除上述内容外，还经常遇到以下情况： 1.写信人提请对方特定人员注意时，可在信内姓名及地址的下面或在称呼同一行之右侧说明，并加上Attn.(Attention的缩写)字祥，也可在字下划横线表示。
2.写信人为使对方迅速、正确地理解信所谈的主题与目的，常在信内列出“事由”项，记在信文的上方，并在Subject底下划横线，以提醒对方注意。
3.为便于商业信函留存查阅并分清责任，书信下部注有发信人及打字员姓名的第一个字母，位于署名下两行的左下方。
4.为说明信所附附件，便于收信人清点，可在发信人及打字员姓名的字母下行加注。
5.如信文写完后需要补充一点，或加附与信文主题无关的简短内容时，可在信文末尾附件下加附言，用.(Postscript的缩写)引导。 对国外商业业务往来信函的结构格式举例如下：
日期 May,20,1998,收信人 Mach &.Welson，

Hello! The coming on teacher's day, I want to deeply wish you: happy teachers' day!
You are our most amiable Chinese teacher. Remember in the first grade class, my classmates and I quietly talking, thinking is not discovered by you. But, all of a sudden you gave me a severe look in the eyes, makes me realize that he was wrong, immediately stop the dialogue with your classmates. It is your eyes, let me listen carefully in class, completes the study notes.
Another time, I've just finished the Chinese homework, mom took the past, also said that after see I write very well. But the next morning, after you change the job, specially in class told me that yesterday's homework I don't write the word _month_. Back home, I told the story to my mother, mother said: _the teacher to change more than 30 in the work can find your little problem, but we didn't see, I don't seriously._
Teacher, your love to the students is careful, is selfless. In the future, I must study hard, live up to you to my care and expectations.

2006-05-21 18:02chrintar|四级 英文书信的格式
1、 信头（heading）指发信人的姓名（单位名称）、地址和日期，一般写在信纸的右上角。一般公函或商业信函的信纸上都印有单位或公司的名称、地址、电话号码等，因此就只需在信头下面的右边写上写信日期就可以了。 英文地址的写法与中文完全不同，地址的名称按从小到大的顺序：第一行写门牌号码和街名；第二行写县、市、省、州、邮编、国名；然后再写日期。标点符号一般在每一行的末尾都不用，但在每一行的之间，该用的还要用，例如在写日期的时候。
2、 日期的写法：如：1997年7月30日，英文为：july 30，1997（最为普遍）； july 30th，1997；30th july，1997等。1997不可写成97。
3、 信内地址（inside address）： 在一般的社交信中，信内收信人的地址通常省略，但是在公务信函中不能。将收信人的姓名、地址等写在信头日期下方的左角上，要求与对信头的要求一样，不必再写日期。
4、 称呼（salutation）：是写信人对收信人的称呼用语。位置在信内地址下方一、二行的地方，从该行的顶格写起，在称呼后面一般用逗号（英国式），也可以用冒号（美国式）。
（1）写给亲人、亲戚和关系密切的朋友时，用dear或my dear再加上表示亲属关系的称呼或直称其名（这里指名字，不是姓氏）。例如：my dear father，dear tom等。
（2）写给公务上的信函用dear madam，dear sir或gentleman（gentlemen）。注意：dear纯属公务上往来的客气形式。gentlemen总是以复数形式出现，前不加dear，是dear sir
的复数形式。
（3）写给收信人的信，也可用头衔、职位、职称、学位等再加姓氏或姓氏和名字。例如：dear prof. tim scales, dear dr. john smith。
5、 正文（body of the letter）： 位置在下面称呼语隔一行，是信的核心部分。因此要求正文层次分明、简单易懂。和中文信不同的是，正文中一般不用hello！（你好！）正文有缩进式和齐头式两种。每段书信第一行的第一个字母稍微向右缩进些，通常以五个字母为宜，每段第二行从左面顶格写起，这就是缩进式。但美国人写信各段落往往不用缩进式，用齐头式，即每一行都从左面顶格写起。商务信件大都采用齐头式的写法。在正文下面的一、二行处，从信纸的中间偏右处开始，第一个词开头要大写，句末用逗号。不同的对象，结束语的写法也不同。
（1）写给家人、亲戚，用your loving grandfather，lovingly yours，lovingly等；
（2）写给熟人、朋友，用yours cordially，yours affectionately等；
（3）写业务信函用truly yours（yours truly），faithfully yours（yours faithfully）等；
（4）对上级、长辈用yours obediently（obediently yours），yours respectfully（respectfully yours）等。
7、 签名（signature） ：低于结束语一至二行，从信纸中间偏右的地方开始，在结束语的正下方，在签完名字的下面还要有用打字机打出的名字，以便识别。职务、职称可打在名字的下面。当然，写给亲朋好友的信，就不必再打了。
8、 附言（postscript） ：一封信写完了，突然又想起遗漏的事情，这时用.表示，再写上遗漏的话即可，要长话短说。通常在信末签名下面几行的左方，应于正文齐头。 注意：在正式的信函中，应避免使用附言。
9、 附件（enclosure） ：信件如果有附件，可在信纸的左下角，注上encl：或enc：例如：encl：2 photos（内附两张照片）。如果福建附件不止一项，应写成encl：或encs。我们有时可看到在称呼与正文之间有re：或subject：（事由）字样。一般在信纸的中间，也可与“称呼”对齐。还应在底下加横线，以引起读信人的注意，使收信人便于在读信之前就可了解信中的主要内容。事由一般在公务信函中使用，也可以省略。flat 3, building 3

Dear Mr. Wang,
Although MCEA would like to see Palo Alto public schools implement the first bilingual Chinese kindergarten class in September of 20xx, we have learned that the school district must take the time to understand how a new program will affect existing educational offerings, and to validate community interest. Nevertheless, MCEA, with more than 70 members, will continue to actively promote bilingual Chinese education in the Palo Alto public schools and will keep you apprised of the progress we make.

Dear sir，
I am writing to you to express my thanks for your help in learning English. You are one of the best teachers who I have ever met. There are many good points that I learn from you.
During these days in your class, I have acquired much knowledge from you and it really helps me a lot. Firstly，you let me know what the west thinking pattern is -straight thinking pattern. As an English learner, it is important for me to understand the difference between them. There is no denying the fact that this can help me with my examination and interaction with foreigners. What's more，I'm glad to be your student，and I am very happy to learn the course under your guidance. English is an important tool, through which we can share our experience with the world. I treasure the chance of learning English，and I enjoy the happiness from your course.
The last not the least, please forgive those mistakes I have made which may upset you. What I have learned from you will help me pass the coming examinations and also be useful for my further education in abroad. It is not only a progress of learning, but also a cultivation of my ability.
May everything go well around you.
Your student,
Li ling
Dear Tom,
How are you doing? How time flies! I have been back to China for half a year. I miss you so much!
Every time I catch sight of our photos taken in America, I can’t help thinking of what you have done for me. It was so kind of you to help me with my spoken English. Besides, you made me master a lot of advanced English grammar, which really surprised me. What’s more, I shall always remember you encouraged me to correct my pronunciation by enjoying American TV programs.
By the way, Could you please tell me how can I get in touch with Mr. Smith? I have some learning problems to ask him.
Besides, I know you are interested in the historical Chinese civilization. Why not come to China to enjoy the Spring festival? I promise you won’t regret!
Looking forward to your reply!

英语书信主要由以下几个部分组成：
① 信头(Heading)，也叫信端，指发信人的地址和写信日期。其写法主要有全部齐头式(信头位于信纸的左上角)和半齐头式(信头位于信纸的右上角)两种。
② 信内地址(Inside Name & Address)指收信人的姓名和地址，写在信纸的左上角，从信纸的左边顶格写起，低于信头一、两行。
③ 称呼(Salutation)是对收信人的称呼用语，自成一行，写在低于信内地址一、两行的地方，从信纸的左边顶格写起，每个词的开头字母用大写或至少首词和专有名词的第一个字母用大写，末尾用逗号。
④ 正文(Body)
⑤ 结束语(Complimentary Close)是写信人自己对收信人的一种谦称，只占一行，低于正文一、两行，从信纸的中间或稍右的地方开始，第一个词的开头字母用大写，末尾用逗号。
⑥ 签名(Signature)
一般低于结束用语一、二行，从信纸中间偏右的地方开始。
⑦ 附件(Enclosure, 缩写为Encl.或Enc.)
信件如有附件，应在左下角注明Encl.或Enc.。
答题技巧
技巧1：熟记书信格式，保证格式正确。
① 发信人和收信人地址名称从小到大书写。值得注意的是，门牌号与街道名之间不用逗号隔开，但城市名和国名之间、日月和年份之间，须有逗号。月份和日期间不用逗号。信内地址应注意先写收信人姓名、头衔和单位名称，后写地址。写信日期一般有如下几种写法：
a. May 24, 2001 b. 1st Oct, 2004
c. 10 June, 1999 d. Sept. 21st, 2005
上述四种写法中，a式最为普遍。
② 当题目没有特别给出收信人和写信人地址时，信头和信内地址可省去;但若给出了写信日期，须记得把日期写上。
③ 对男性的称呼，多用Mr.;对女性称呼多用Mrs., Madam, Miss 或Ms.。须注意，Mr., Mrs., Madam, Miss, Ms可用在姓氏前，或姓氏和名字前，不可只用在名字前。如对David Green 的称呼，应是：Mr. Green 或Mr. David Green, 不能是Mr. David。此外，对收信人的称呼也可用头衔或职位名称，不分男女性别。如：张民教授，可称作Professor Zhang Min(Professor 可缩写成Prof.)。在对外公事函件中，收信人的称呼可用Gentlemen(注意不是Gentleman), Dear Sir/Madam等。
④ 常用的结束语有：Yours truly, (Very) Truly yours, Yours (very) faithfully, Yours (very) sincerely, Yours (very) respectfully, Yours, Yours ever。 特别注意，Yours 不可写作Your。
技巧2：注意内容完整，仔细审题，找出要点。考书信通常会用汉语给出信的正文内容，正文应完全覆
盖题目要点。对于题目未要求的内容，不要画蛇添足。
技巧3：考前熟悉书信常用语句，考试中根据题目要求合理套用。
① 信件开头的常用语句
