检索表英文书信写作格式

2021年1月13日发(作者：葛天民)
1. 信头（Heading）
信头是指写信人的地址和写信日期， 一般写在或打在第一 面信纸的右上角，先写地址再写
日期，地址的写法是从小到大，先写门牌号、路号，再写区名、市名、省 名，最后写国名。
时间的写法对英国人和美国人而言是不同的。英国人习惯按日、月、年的顺序写，
而美国人习惯按月、日、年的顺序写。例如：
英式：1st October，1999
美式：October 1，1999
在使用前一种形式时，月和年之间的逗号可用可不用，但是在后一种形式中，必需要使用逗
号。
信头的写法有缩进式和齐头式。缩进式每行开头向右缩进一两个字母；齐头式左边对齐排列，
如 下所示：
缩进式
Wang Ming
Dept. of Chemical Engineering
Dalian University of Technology
Dalian 116023
Liaoning Province
P. R. China
齐头式
Wang Ming
Dept. of Chemical Engineering
Dalian University of Technology
Dalian 116023
Liaoning Province
P. R. China
2. 信内地址 （Inside Address）
信内地址要写出收信人的姓名和地址。一般给比较生疏的亲友的 信和公事信件要写出信内地
址，而熟悉朋友可以省去这一步骤。信内地址写出在日期下一两行的左上角， 第一行写收信
人的称呼姓名，然后写出地址。地质也是从小到大写出，分缩进式和齐头式两种。例如：
缩进式
The President
Oxford University
England
齐头式
Jiang Bin
64Heping Road
称呼（Salutation）
称呼是对收信人的称谓。在信内地址下一两行处顶格写起，自成一行。末尾用逗号或冒号。
（1）当给一位熟悉的人写信时可以用Dear 或是My Dear。在英国，My Dear 比Dear亲切，
而在美国，Dear比My Dear 亲切。
（2）当给一位你不知婚否的女性写信时，可以用Ms.……，这是指……女士。
（3）在给不熟悉的人写信时，可以用Dear sir, Dear Madam, Dear sirs, Gentleman 等
等。
4正文（Body of Letter） < br>正文是一封信的主体部分。通常在称呼的下一行写出。正文也可采用齐头式或缩进式的方法。
齐头 式是反映每段开头一行和后面行并齐。缩进式是指每段的第一行向右缩进几个字母。信
笺讲究简洁、效率 。开头几句简单地寒暄后就不如正题，在结尾处要有祝愿和敬语。
常用的开头语有：
I have received your letter of July Ist. 7月1 日来信已经收悉。
I have the pleasure to tell you that …….很高兴告诉你……。
I am very much delighted to receive your letter. 非常高兴收到你的来信。
It is my honor to inform you that ……很荣幸告诉你……。
常用的结束套话有：
I am looking forward to hearing from you 盼早日回信。
Wish best regards. 祝好。
Thank you for your help 感谢你的帮助！
Wish my best wishes for your success. 祝你成功。
Wishing you a happy holiday. 祝假日愉快！
Hoping to hear from you soon. 希望能尽快收到你的回信。
５结束语（Complimentary Close）
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：
Yours sincerely,
Yours truly,
Yours faithfully,

用括号标出Mr.、Miss或Ms。在名称下面可注上头衔。如：
Yours sincerely,
Lucy Blake (手写)
Lucy Blake (Miss)(打印)
Sales Manager
７附言（Postscript）,附件（Enclosure）
在信件正文写作时可能漏 掉了某些事，或临时发生了某事需要补充时，可以在信下面左下方
写出上.
如果随信有附件可在爱左下端注明。如：
Enclosure:(发票)
(个人简历)

信纸没有特别的 要求，如果是写给朋友的话，可以用带图案漂亮的信纸。
若写个上级或用于正式场合，需用A4纸打草稿书写。

Dear XX,
How are you doing these days
I am writing to tell you that I'm going to take the TOEFL examination. You know it’s
a little difficult for our Chinese students and this is the first time that I take
this kind of examination. So I don't know what I should do for making preparations.
I want to ask you if you can give me some idea about this examination and give me
some suggestions on which reference books I should buy.
I’m looking forward to your letter. Thank you very much!
Best wishes!


Yours,
XX


假设你是李明，请你就本校图书馆的状况给校长写一封信，反映如下问题：

1. 图书馆内本专业藏书偏旧，不利于学生及时了解国内外新的学术发展。
2. 阅览室灯光太暗、没有空调设备。
3. 新开发的电子借阅系统有待完善——许多图书资料都无法使用该系统查到。

Dear President:


I'm Li Ming. I venture to write to you and unveil the existing pro
blems of the library under your charge.


We exhaust our patience to look for items related to our major on
shelves crammed with outdated shabby books. Most of them should be w
eeded. The newly published counterparts need to be purchased, displaye
d and circulated. The library armed with these fresh books enables u
s to track the newest information concerning scientific discoveries an
d scholarly accomplishment.


We all suffer the dim light and the absence of air conditioner in
the reading room. This intolerably terrible scenario pressingly needs
improving. The newly introduced library system is to be updated, for
its search engine skips some valuable materials.

We are waiting for your response to these problems.

Li Ming

dearliming:

亲爱的李明：
你还好吗我们很久没见了。突然给你写信是不是很意外啊。我现在过不错啊，工 作稳定，日
子很平静。不知道你怎么样了，最近的天气很热，我希望你工作时注意休息。
下个 星期五晚上你有空吗我买了两张电影票，如果你有时间就来，我会在电影院门口等你，
你不来就给我打个 电话说下。
期待你能来。
你的王英


英文书信不论是商业信、社交信或朋友间的通信，依据习惯，大体都有六部分组成。即：
信头(heading)
信内地址(inside address)
称呼(salutation)
正文(body)
结尾语(complimentary close)
签名(signature)
1.信头(heading)
英语书信的信头包括发信人的地址和发信的具体日期两部分。 信头放在信纸的右上角，一般分行
写出。要先写发信人地址，再写发信的日期。写发信地址时依据从小到 大的原则，即：先写门牌
号码、街道名或路名，再写区(县)及所在市名称，然后是省或州、郡名称，最 后再写上国家的名
称。日期的顺序是先写月份再写哪一日然后是年份。需写邮政编码，邮政编码写在城市 名称后边，
用逗号隔开。
信头不能越过信纸中间而写到信纸的左上面。另外需要注意的是， 通常在写地址时，第一行写门
牌号和街名，第二行写地区名，第三行是日期。一般信头每行末不用标点符 号，但每行中间应用
的标点不可少，城区名和邮政编码之间，日月和年份之间要用逗号隔开。
信头一般不要写得太高，信头的上面要留些空白。
信头的书写格式有两种：并列式和斜列式 。所谓并列式是指信头各行开头上下排列整齐。而所谓
斜列式是下一行开头较上一行的开头向右移一至两 个字母的位置。如：
并列式：
6P Park Ave.
New York; NY 11215,
December 1， 1999
斜列式：
6P Park AVe.
New york, NY 11215,
December 1， 1993
2.信内地址(inside address)
信内地址包括收信人的姓名称呼和地址两部分。社交的私人信件信内地址是省略的。信内地址的
位置位于信头的左下方，它的开始行低于信头的结尾行，位于信纸中央的左边。
信内地址先写收信人 的头衔和姓名，再写地址，地址排列次序同信头一样。信内地址的书写格式
也有两种：并列式和斜列式。 一般来讲，信头和信内地址所用的格式总是保持一致的。标点符号
的使用也与信头一样。
