英语书信写作格式范本
书信一般可分为事务信件或公函以及私人信件两大类。一般包括以下几个要点:
1、收信人的姓名和地址;
2、 寄信人的姓名及其与收信人的关系;
3、寄信人的地址(有时可以省略);
4、 写信的时间;
5、 信的内容。
书信的格式:
1、 信头
2、 称呼
3、 正文
4、 结束语
5、签名
书信的种类:
1、 邀请信
邀请信有正式和非正式之分,也有介于两者之间者。正式邀请信一般属于公函类,私人邀请信一般属于非正式文体。邀请朋友、熟人参加某一聚会时,再词句上不一定多加斟酌,用词太正规倒显得关系不密切。但是如果与被邀请人不太熟悉的话,最好用正式文体。如虽认识但并不十分了解,文体可介于两个者之间。由此可见,私人邀请究竟用什么文体,关键看与被邀请人之间的亲疏的程度。邀请信要明确写出活动(是晚会、晚餐还是一般的聚会等)、活动的时间地点组织这项活动的'理由,有时还应告诉对方可能出席的人,另外一般希望对方给予答复。
(1) 非正式邀请信,如;
26 Coventry St.
London
Sept. 15th, 1999.
Dear Jack,
I am going to the cinema to see the Red River Valley and I have two tickets. Would you like to come? The film starts at 7:30 p.m. Maybe we can meet at the Covent Garden Station at 7:00 p.m. and have a drink before the film starts. Please phone me at home to let me know.
Looking forward to seeing you.
Love
Mary
这封信是写给朋友的,所以用语比较随便,比较口语化。
(2) 正式邀请信,如:

Dear Miss Katherine,
I am very pleased to write to you. My name is Yu Hong and I am monitor of Class One, Grade Three of the No.2 Middle School of Ji'nan.
