三、 书信作文练习及其参考范文
书信是重要的交际工具。英文书信分为两大类：公务信件和私人信件。公务信件是单位与单位或单位与个人之间来往的书信，可能是推荐信、求职信、入学申请书、邀请信，或询问、答复、反映意见（如投诉信）等的信件。私人信件是指亲戚朋友之间的通信。这两类书信各有自己的格式。一般说来，私人信件不拘形式，信文多用手写，也可打印；公务信件要求比较严格，必须遵循一定的格式，信文一定要打印。
第一节 英文书信的结构
英文书信一般由以下六部分组成：信头、信内地址、称呼、正文、结尾、签名。
5.1.1 信头（Heading）
信头是指发信人的地址和日期，通常写在第一页的右上角。行首可以齐头写，也可以逐行缩进写。地址的书写顺序由小到大：门牌号、街道、城市、省（州）、邮编、国名，最后写发信日期。私人信件一般只写寄信日期即可。例如：
123 Tianhe Road
Tianhe District
Guangzhou 510620
Guangdong Province
P. R. C.
Jan. 8, 2010
5.1.2 信内地址（Inside Address）
信内地址要写收信人的姓名和地址。在公务信件中要写明这一项，在私人信件中，这一项常常省略。该项写在写信日期下一行的左上角，格式与寄信人地址一样。
5.1.3 称呼（Salutation）
称呼是对收信人的称谓，应与左边线对齐，写在收信人姓名、地址下面1-2行处。在称呼后，英国人常用逗号，美国人则常用冒号。在私人信件中可直呼收信人的名字，但公务信件中一定要写收信人的姓。大部分信件在称呼前加“Dear”。如：
Dear Professor/Prof. Bergen:
Dear Dr. Johnson,
对不相识的人可按性别称呼：
Dear Sir: 或Dear Madam: Dear Ladies。
如果不知收信人的性别则可用Dear Sir or Madam:
5.1.4 正文（Body of Letter）
正文是书信的主体。与中文信件不同的是，英文书信的正文的开头不是先写一些问候语，再阐明写信的目的，而是直接说明写信人的身份及写信的目的，然后提出写信人的情况、想法或要求，并加以必
要的解释或说明。英文书信陈述目的时，应该直截了当，意思明确，层次清楚，言简意赅。
书信正文的第一句话或第一段，通常被称为起首语。一般说来，人们习惯用一些客套的写法作为书信正文的起始，即先将对方来信的日期、主题加以简单描述，以便使对方一看便知该信是回答哪一封信的。如果是第一次给别人写信，也可用开头语作必要的自我介绍，并表明自己写信的主要目的。
5.1.5 结尾礼词（Complimentary Close）
公务信件的结尾礼词包含两部分：发信人的结尾套语与署名。结尾套语写在签名上面一行，第一个字母要大写，套语结尾后面要加逗号。在公务信件中，发信人常用的结尾套语有：
Yours truly, Yours sincerely, Respectfully yours, Cordially yours, Yours cordially等。
私人信件中，发信人常用的结尾套语有：
Sincerely yours, Lovely yours, Your lovely, Your loving son/daughter等。
5.1.6 签名（Signature）
写信人的签名常位于结尾礼词正下方一二行。除非是给很熟悉的人写信，签名一般须写出全名。签名常常较潦草，不易辨认，因此在签名的正下方须打印出全名。
第二节 书信作文的出题形式和写作要领
1990年到2002年1月之间的四级考试作文题中，书信作文共出
现两次（2001年6月和2002年1月）。下面，我们先来看看2001年6月四级考试的作文题：
Directions: For this part, you are allowed thirty minutes to write a letter. Suppose you are Zhang Ying. Write a letter to Xiao Wang, a schoolmate of yours who is going to visit you during the week-long holiday. You should write at least 120 words according to the suggestion given below in Chinese:
1. 表示欢迎
2. 提出对度假安排的建议
3. 提醒应注意的事项
A Letter to a Schoolmate
June 23, 2001
Dear Xiao Wang,
__________________________________
__________________________________
__________________________________.
Yours,
Zhang Ying
从上面的例子可见，书信作文不仅给出正文部分的内容的提纲，而且还给出书信各部分的结构的框架。也就是说，我们只要考虑如何表达提纲部分的内容，而不用考虑书信的结构。
在写书信作文时，首先要把书信正文的提纲内容细化，扩展成更
细的英文提纲，然后用简洁、明了、礼貌、正确和得体的语言表达出细化了的提纲内容。例如前面的那封信就可以列出下面的提纲：Topic: A Letter to a SchoolmateQuestion: What are the holiday arrangements and points for attention?
Outline:I. Extending my welcomeII. Holiday schedule1. 1st day – campus2. 2nd day – the art gallery & music hall3. 3rd day – mountain climbing4. next 3 days – other places of interest (Swan Cave, Golden Lake ?)5.

Suggest建议

I’m writing this letter to tell some of my ideas to improve the service of the library.
I’m a freshman in the university who always review my lessons in the library. I have noticed some problem about the library recently
I think the service of our library could be improved as follows. The first, many magazines in our library are out of date. It would be beneficial to us if they could be updated in time. The second, I think it could be much better if there is an information board in the hall of library.
Thank you for your patience in reading this letter and I’m looking forward to seeing some new changes soon.

Dear Editors,
I am writing this letter to express my vision on the restriction on the using of plastic bags. Recently the local government enacted the restriction. But it seems that “white pollution” is still going on.
I think the using of plastic bags should be banned. To solve this problem, some measures should be taken. Above all, local government should establish an administrative organ to monitor the using of plastic bags. Furthermore, we should publicize the harm which could be caused by using plastic bags immoderately. It is necessary to enhance people’s awareness of environmental protection.
Thanks for your patience in reading this letter. I am looking forward to your early reply. Li Ming
Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing this letter to ask for your help.
I have conceived a plan for a long time that I would like to aid a child through the Hope Project. I wonder if you could help me to recommend a proper candidate.
I would like to aid a child comes from Qinghai Province, who cannot continue his primary courses for lacking enough money. My plan will be carried out as follows. I will remit at least 2,000 Yuan every year. What’s more important, I would teach the child English during my summer vacation. Thanks for your patience in reading this letter. I am looking forward to your early reply.
Contest
Now we are organizing a school-wide Clinical operating skill contest to be held on 15 January, Tuesday next week, at the Medicine Examination Center.
