September 26th,2006Dr.Moss RobertsDirectorEast Asian Studies,New York University375 Broadway,New York,NY 10003Dear Dr.Roberts，(Body)Yours sincerely,Li PingP.S.to enclose under cover/to enclose under separate cover.Enc.Resume and photoCC.Li Feng,DeanZhang Linping,Chair,1)Heading(信头)The letterhead usually includes the essential information about the writer name,address,etc.The writing of the address should be stressed as it is totally different from Chinese order.The number and the street should be put at the beginning while the city and country be put at the end.For example,中国广东省广州市天河街14号”should be translated into“No.14 Tianhe Street,Guangzhou,Guangdong Province,China”.,Illustration,Date（日期）As for the date,it is usually put one or two lines under the letterhead on the right for the purpose of filing or checking.Simple ways of writing:March 4,2006 March 4th,2006 4 March,2006 Avoid using“3/4/06”or“2006.3.4”.,2)Inside Address(封内地址)It will be the same as in the envelope,which shall be the name and address of the receiver.But when some companies use the name of the owner as part of the company name,“Messrs”will be added before the name,for example,“Messrs Bob&Michael Trading Co.”,此名称和地址由于写在信内而被称为封内名称地址，目的是为了确保信封与信件的一致性以免装错信封寄错信。封内名称地址的写法与信头写法一致。此内容放在日期之下，齐左边。如 xxx,China National Chemical Imp.&Exp.Corp.,Nanning Branch,65#Qixing road,Nanning,Guangxi,China.,姓名的写法：1）写给认识的男性，用Mr.加上姓名，如 Mr.John Smith2)对认识的男性，可用头衔或职称代替Mr.表示尊重，如：Doctor John Smith,Professor Joyce Gwillian3)对认识的男性，可以同时写上职称甚至工作单位，如：Mr.John Smith,manager Camera Shop4)对数位男性，可用Messrs.,如：Messrs.Thomas Wood and John Smith5)写给不知姓名的人，可写其职务或所在机构，如：The manager Oriented Bank To whom it may Concern6)写给未婚女性，用Miss,接姓名；给已婚女性，用Mrs.；给不知婚姻状况的女 性，用Ms.,3)Salutation(称谓)Salutation in business letter is different from that in Chinese or ordinary English letters.“Dear”is used to express respect here,for example,“Dear Mr.Peng”.Sometimes the letter is not addressed to a specific person,then“Dear sir(s)”,“Gentleman(men)”are used.This part is placed on the left under the inside name and address.,4)Body(正文)Body is the part the writer expresses his idea or requirements.Usually,it is divided into three parts:opening,body and closing.Opening is to give the reason of writing;body is to specify his requirements and wishes while closing is to express thanks or hope.The contents of body will vary with the specific step of business.There are two main kinds of layout here:indented one with the first line of each paragraph indented and blocked one with all lines on the left.,5)Complimentary Close(结尾敬语)There are many ways of complementary close to show respect.It carries no specific meanings.Usually we keep them in pace with the salutation.When the salutation is“Dear sir(s)”,complimentary close will be“yours faithfully,yours sincerely”;when salutation uses“Gentleman(men)”,complimentary close will be“yours truly,truly yours”,etc.,6)Signature(签名)It is usually printed and written on a letter,the place of which will depend on the layout of the letter.We put signature under the complimentaryclose with title under it.If the writer represents certain institute,the name of the institute will be printed above the signature,for example:Yours truly,Yours faithfully,(signature)MITSUBISHI CORPORATION(Miss)Lucy Steinbeck(signature)Thomas C.Sutton General Manager,Sales Department,7)Enclosure(附件)Sometimes catalogue,pricelist,order,copies of fax or other relative documents will be enclosed in the letter,then under the signature a line on the left will be added to remind the receiver,for example：enclosure:3 copies encl.as stated,8)Carbon Copy(抄送)It is to show the letter has been sent to someone in charge of this,for example“c.c.Manager”.It is placed under the enclosure on the left.,ENGLISH LETTER WRITING,Forms of English letters（英文书信的格式）,1.Block Form（并列式/封闭式/齐头式）要求信头、收信人地址、称谓和正文（包括每段起行）均上下对齐。,15
