写一封电子邮件
英文电子邮件和书信的写法大致相同,但略有差异。一般说来英文电子邮件包括以下五个部分:
1.标题栏
一般写在左上角,包括发件人姓名、邮箱地址、发件日期、收件人姓名、邮箱地址以及邮件主题。
排列格式为:
FROM:发件人姓名、邮箱地址
DATE:发件日期
TO:收件人姓名、邮箱地址
SUBJECT:简明扼要地介绍信的内容。通常是单词、短语,偶尔用句子。
2.称呼
位于正文的开头。如何称呼,要看发件人与收件人的关系而定。若是同学、朋友,可以直呼其名;若是长辈或上级,要在姓氏前加上Mr,Miss,Mrs,Dr.Professor等表示称谓的词。
3.正文
正文要简洁明了。简单问候之后,就要开门见山地说明写信的目的。这部分内容的写作相对自由,但对于电子邮件的回复,须紧扣“回复”这一字眼,要“问有所答,疑有所解”。在高考中,要按照试题要求的内容来写,最重要的是表达要清楚、有条理,语言要准确、流畅。
4.信尾客套话
结尾的客套话通常很简洁,如Yours,Thanks等,一般写在左下角。
5.签名
一般写在左下角,有时也写在右下角。
1.impress v. 给……留下印象
2.unforgettable adj. 令人难忘的
3.benefit v. 有益于
4.convenient adj. 方便的
5.beautiful scenery 美景
6.take a highspeed train 乘高铁
7.so...that... 如此……以至于……
8.on the way to 在去……的路上
9.What's more 此外;再者
10.have a bright future 有光明的未来
常见的开头方式:
表示高兴:I was so glad/pleased/happy to receive your email dated May 1st.
表示感谢:Thank you for your wonderful gift/interesting email.
表示关心与询问:How are you these days? /How are you getting on these days? /How are you getting on with your work/studies?
表示抱歉:I am sorry that I did not reply soon but I have been very busy these days.
表示遗憾:I was sorry to learn that you did not do well in the examination./I am so upset to hear that you are ill these days.
常用的结束语有:

Dear Jane,
I've been at Senior High School for more than two months. I'm writing down my thoughts about my new school life.
My new school is a wellknown school with a long history. There are 50 classes, more than 300 teachers and over 3,500 students in my school. The classrooms are amazing.Every room has a computer with a special screen, almost as big as a cinema screen. And there are sixty students in my class, who are all hardworking. I'm getting on very well with my classmates. My favorite teacher is a very enthusiastic woman called Ms Wang, whose way of teaching is nothing like that of my previous teachers. She usually tells us something in an interesting way. I don't think I will be bored in her class.
We usually get up at 6:30 and our class starts at 8:00. I always take part in colorful afterclass activities and we go to bed at ten.
Bye for now!
