英语应用文写作之邀请信

（一）一、邀请信及复信

邀请信包括宴会邀请、午餐和晚餐邀请、聚会邀请、舞会邀请、婚礼邀请等。

邀请信虽然看起来不象请柬那样正规、庄重，但是，也是很讲就的。写好邀请信，需注意以下几个问题：

1.邀请信一定要写得明确、完整，不可给收信人留下任何疑问。如: “ I’d like you and Tom to come to dinner next Wednesday.” 这样的写法就不够明确，需要加上具体的日期和时间。该句应写成: “I’d like you and Tom to come to dinner on Wednesday, June 14, at seven o’clock.”

2.在欧美国家，夜晚的邀请，除了那些只允许男人参加的社交活动之外，不论是正式的，还是非正式的，都应该邀请夫妻双方参加。

3.别人对你的邀请是对你的尊重，因此，无论能否赴约，都应该给与及时的、有礼貌的答复。

4.对于邀请信，在复信时应该明确地说明是接受邀请, 还是不能接受邀请。不能使用模棱两可的话。如: “ I’ll try my best to come.” “ I’ll come if I’m in town.” 等等，那样会使邀请人感到十分不安，应该明确说明去还是不去，以便让邀请人早做安排。

5.接受邀请时，在回信时要重复写上邀请信中的某些内容，如:

几月几日、星期几、几点钟等等。不应该这样写：“ I’ll be delighted to attend your luncheon…”，而应该写成： “ I’ll be delighted to attend your luncheon on Thursday, May tenth, at one o’clock.” 这样写，可以纠正你或邀请人可能弄错了的日期和时间。

（一）宴会邀请信及复信

邀请朋友赴宴（Inviting a Friend to Dinner）

Dear Zhang Ning,Will you and Mr.Wang Yi have dinner with us on Tuesday, the fifth of May, at seven o’clock?

It’s a long time since we have had the pleasure of seeing you and we do hope you can come.Sincerely yours,Elizabeth K.Benton ·接受邀请（Acceptance）

Dear Mrs.Benton,Wang Yi and I will be delighted to dine with you on Tuesday, the fifth of May, at seven o’clock.How nice of you to ask us!We are both looking forward with great pleasure to seeing you and Dr.Benton again.Very sincerely yours,Zhang Ning

不能赴约（Regret）

Dear Mrs.Benton,I’ve been putting off this note until the last possible moment, hoping and hoping Wang Yi would get back from Shanghai in time for your dinner party.But now I must regretfully write that he’ll still be out of town on Tuesday, the fifth;and we therefore cannot accept your kind invitation for dinner on that day.It was sweet of you to ask us;and I know Wang Yi will be as sorry as I am to miss an evening with you and Dr.Benton.We know how delightful such evenings at your house usually are!Sincerely yours,Zhang Ning

2.邀请朋友赴宴和看电影

现代人由于忙忙碌碌，邀请信总是写得很简短，邀请朋友赴宴和看电影，通常只写上几行字，但是，他们认为这并不是草率和不恭敬的表现，只是为了速度快些罢了。例如：

Dear Li Ming,We have four tickets for a new movie Brokeback Mountain this Friday, the tenth.Will you and He Yi join us here for dinner at six sharp;and then go on with us later to the movie? We’ll be

looking for you Friday night, so don’t disappoint us!

Affectionately yours,Doris

·接受邀请(Acceptance)

Dear Doris,Delighted!We’ll be there Friday at six, and go with you

afterward to the cinema.How wonderful of you and Frank to ask us!….Affectionately yours,Li Ming·不能赴约（Regret）

Dear Doris,I think you’d better ask some other couple for Friday.He Yi is in Shanghai and won’t be back for another week.Wait till he hears what a wonderful evening he missed with you and Frank!Thanks for asking us, Doris.I’m certainly sorry we can’t say “yes”!

Affectionately yours,Li Ming

3.取消非正式宴会的短笺

有时候，由于生病或其他原因，需取消原定的宴请，如果时间紧，可以用电话通知已邀请的客人，如果有时间，应该写一封短信表示歉意。

Dear Mrs.Jennings,I have just learned that my son, who is at school in Shanghai, was injured in a basketball game.Although the injury is not very serious, Lin Kai and I feel we must go to him at once;and we are leaving tomorrow morning.Under the circumstances, we must recall our dinner

invitations for Tuesday, the fifth of May… and plan on a later date for our party.I’m sure that you and Mr.Jennings will understand our anxiety, and will forgive this last-minute change in plans.Sincerely yours,Li Li

4.对于非正宴请的不能如期赴约的短笺

按照英美人的习惯，应邀者因为生病或其他原因而不能如期赴约时，应该打个电话或写一封短信告诉邀请人。当然，只有在万不得已时才能做出这样的改变。

Dear Mrs.Benton,I’m very sorry to have to write you this letter!After accepting your kind invitation for dinner on Tuesday, May the fifth, I now

find that we cannot be there after all.Li Yong has just been called to Shanghai on business;and although he tried very hard to postpone the trip until after the fifth, he was unable to do so.We had been looking forward with great pleasure to seeing you and Dr.Benton;and we both feel very badly about this unexpected development.We hope you understand, and that you will not be inconvenienced.Sincerely yours,Wang ShanshanWriting Assignment 1：写一封邀请信，要请你的好朋友Elizabeth K.Benton 本周六晚7点到你家赴宴, 然后一起去电影院看新电影《金刚》（KING KONG）(The Eighth Wonder of the World.)。以Elizabeth K.Benton的身份给你写一封表示接受邀请的回信。

.以Elizabeth K.Benton的身份给你写一封表示不能接受邀请的回信。

邀 请 信

1.Introduction 邀请信在日常生活和外事活动中使用广泛，一般分为两种：一种为正式邀请（invitation card）；因为其结构非一般信函，在此不作讲述。本章只讲非正式请帖，即邀请信(letters of invitation)。

邀请信形式上不如请帖那样正规，但也很考究。书写时应注意一下两点：（1）邀请信一定要将邀请的时间（年、月、日、钟点）、地点、场合写清楚，不能让收信人有任何的疑虑。例如 “ I’d like you and Tom to come to dinner next Monday” 这句话中指的是哪个星期并不明确，所以要加上具体日期，“I’d like you and Tom to come to dinner next Monday, May the fifth at 6 o’clock.P.m., at the Locus Hotel”。

（2）邀请信的特点是简短热情，形式较为灵活，一般为两小段，将意思表达清楚即可。在盛大的场合，请帖应提前三星期发出，一般场合书写邀请信，应在预定时间的前几天发出，一边收信人及早考虑和安排。收到请帖或信后，通常应立即答复，表明接受谢绝，以示礼貌。

2.Commonly Used Sentences 1)I’d like you to come to our dinner this evening.2)Request the pleasure of … 恭请…

3)The favor of a reply is requested.敬赐复函。

篇3：英语应用之写作研究

在学习英语写作之前, 学习者必须首先了解英语文章有哪些不同的类型。进行英文写作, 必须结合其不同的行文特点、要求、内涵, 特别是不同体裁的书写格式去组织材料。英语作文文体从大的方面可以分为三类:记述文、解释说明文以及应用文。

1.1 记叙文 (Narration)

记叙文是英语写作中用得最多、最基本的一种文体, 具体包括有故事、传记、史实和新闻事件等多种形式。在进行记叙文写作时, 应遵循以下四个要点: (1) 记述并完成四个W, 即Who (谁) , When (什么时间) , Where (什么地点) , What (什么事情) ; (2) 按事件发生的先后顺序法或倒叙法对事件叙述完整、具体; (3) 记叙文所记的都是发生在过去的事, 通常用过去时态写作, (4) 记叙文的写作往往带有一定的目的, 或使引以为戒, 或给予忠告, 或表明概念, 或验证理论, 或赞扬美德或谴责恶习, 在写作时, 应明确并牢记文章的目的。

1.2 解释说明文 (Exposition)

解释说明文也是常见的文体, 以解说和描述为主要表达方式。在进行解释说明文写作时, 应注意以下几个要点: (1) 充分说明事件发生的程度 (How) , 原因 (Why) 和对象 (What) ; (2) 在说明和论述的时候, 可采用举证法、数据处理法、解释法、分类法、比较与对照法、因果分析法等不同的方式; (3) 解释说明文比记叙文的目的性更强且具有一定的论证意义, 比如文章讨论的是事件发生的方式、原因及差异如何?事件原因、结果、特征及其意义何在?因此, 在写作时不能偏离中心; (4) 论据、论点是必不可少的, 所有的写作方法都必须围绕论点展开。

1.3 应用文 (Practical purpose)

应用文在商务英语中的作用是非常重要的, 并且对于日常生活来说, 也十分实用。掌握好应用文的写作对于英语学习者和从业者来说都具有重要的意义。应用文主要包括通知、布告 (Notice) , 贺词 (Greeting) , 祝词 (Good Wishes) , 邀请函 (Invitation) , 便条 (Notes) , 书信 (Letters) 和个人履历 (Resume) 等形式。

英语通知和布告一般采用四行或五行体, 写明内容 (Contents) 、时间 (Time) 、地点 (Place) 和对象 (Who) , 各占一行。无论汉语怎么排序, 英语写作不分先后顺序。

贺词、祝词比较简单, 一般由三部分组成, 如祝贺谁 (To Who) , 祝贺什么 (Contents) , 来自谁 (From Who) 。

邀请函的写作比较讲究, 一般应包含什么原因 (Reason) , 邀请谁 (Person) , 什么时间 (Concrete time) , 出席什么地点 (Place) 的什么场合 (Occasion) , 有的还附上需要回复的字样 (R.S.V.P.) 。

书信分私人信函与公务信函, 公务信函比私人信函的格式要求严格, 公务信函一般按发信的日期 (Date) 、收件人头衔 (Position) 、收信人地址 (Address) 、收件人邮编 (Post code) 等逐项对齐信纸的左上侧依次往下排列, 然后是对收件人的尊称 (Dear Sir/Madam) , 最后开始写作信函的主题内容 (Contents) 。一般私人信函没有这么复杂, 其书写格式基本为: (1) 信纸右上角写发信的日期 (Date) ; (2) 下左排起收件人姓名 (Name) (3) 再往下信函内容 (Contents) ; (4) 落款 (Yours/Sincerely) 。信封的书写一般有两种, 一种是信封正面左上角写发信人姓名和地址, 信封的右上角贴邮花 (Stamp) , 中间靠下地方写收件人姓名、地址等;另一种是把发信人的地址写在信封的背面比较靠中的地方, 其他不变。

2 英文写作的训练方法

写作是综合英语学习各方面的知识进行英语应用的实践阶段, 要想写好并不断提高, 只有多练。掌握好的训练方法, 日积月累, 才会有所成效。对于写作的训练, 以下是几种颇为有效的方法。

2.1 词汇练习

写作必须以大量的词汇作基础, 需要掌握词汇的正确使用在英语写作中尤为重要。一篇好文章的出现不是一朝一夕就能达到的, 必须从最基础的词汇入手。教学中, 对一些重点的、核心的词汇, 要讲清它们的词性、单独用法和搭配用法。为了更有效地与日常生活结合起来, 每学完一个单元, 教师要根据本单元的单词要求学生遣词造句, 举一反三, 借以扩大词汇量, 从而强化写作训练。

2.2 多译练习

一句多译练习是一种行之有效的训练写作的方法。教师要注重引导学生多做一些一句多译练习, 随着各人选词和技巧的差异, 学生的写作思路也会得到开拓。练习过程中可选择各人有把握的句子用不同的表达方式灵活地表达同一内容, 借以扩充多样性的写作能力。同时, 汉、英相互翻译练习会暴露出学生受母语影响的问题, 因此, 多译训练也有助于教师对这些问题及时进行讲评和纠正, 培养和规范学生的英语表达能力。

2.3 写作练习

要想写作能力得到实质性的提高, 多写多练是基本的积累方法。但是, 写作练习应当注意所涉猎文体的广泛性, 而不能只写自己擅长的文体或喜爱的文体。写作题材有记叙、议论、说明、日记、报告、通知、便条、书信、广告等多种形式, 笔者认为, 较好的教学方法是从日常生活中一些常见的文体练起, 比如:日记, 把每天做的事情, 用英语记下来;然后是通知、便条类, 随后是书信、说明类;再后是记述、报告和议论类, 依次由短到长, 由浅入深, 循序渐进地进行。

2.4 复述练习

英语写作能力也可以通过复述、背诵和中心句提取的训练方式得以提高, 在教学过程中, 结合课文的讲解来训练学生的写作能力非常重要, 因为课文中的句子就是规范的英语范文。因此, 每学完一篇课文或对话后, 教师要让学生复述、背诵和默写课文, 每完成一段后, 可以请学生把该段的中心句找出来, 或给该段命一个小题目, 让学生结合文中的句型、段落、篇章中去理解、记忆和体会, 并进行扩充、缩写训练等。

2.5 模写练习

仿写、改写也是能提高英语写作比较有效的方法, 在模仿写作中, 对原文中的格式、构思、表达方式等都可借鉴, 但要提醒学生, 在模仿、改写的过程中一定要注意创新, 力求语句通顺, 符合英语表达习惯。教师要从时态、语态、语气、句型、内容选材等方面对学生加以辅导去指导学生的整个模仿过程, 要求学生注意语法的正确使用。

3 英文写作的注意事项

掌握了不同英语文章的题材和训练方法后, 写出一篇文章来已经不是难事了, 但是要想写出一篇好的文章还需要在细节上予以把握。什么样的文章算得上一篇好文章呢?一般来说, 趣味性、重要性和新颖性以及表达清楚、准确和合适是重要标准, 要想写出一篇高质量的文章, 还需在语法、词的运用、谋篇布局上下一定的工夫。

3.1 词类选择正确

英语单词可以分为实词和虚词。所谓实词是有实际意义的词, 在句子中要充当句子成分的词, 比如:名词、代词和数词能充当相同的句子成分 (主要是主语、宾语和定语) ;动词充当谓语;形容词主要充当表语、定语;副词主要充当状语;而虚词一般不充当句子成分, 必须和其他实词一块充当句子成分。介词与名词构成介词短语, 在句子中充当表语、定语和状语等;冠词是名词的帽子, 与名词连用;连词可连接任何两个或多个具有相同句子成分的词、词组或句子;感叹词用来表示说话人的语气或情感。除此之外, 词汇在不同的语境中会有不同的变化形式, 在写作时要对词汇进行准确地运用是写作的基本功。

3.2 句子结构无误

英文句子的形式多样, 结构多变。主要有:主语+谓语结构;主语+谓语+宾语结构;主语+谓语+状语结构;主语+谓语+宾语+状语结构;主语+谓语+宾语+宾语补语结构;主语+谓语+宾语从句结构;主语+定语从句+谓语+宾语+宾语从句结构, 等等, 在词典中关于动词句型的部分可以查到很多不同的句子结构。在写作的过程中要对句子的结构运用无误, 最关键的是要注意主谓一致、指代明确、主从分明。

3.3 时态运用恰当

时态是英语的一大特点, 同时也是中国的英语学者很难把握的地方, 时态是指动作或行为发生的时间 (time) 和方式 (tense) , 英语中一共有十六种时态, 由四个不同时间 (即现在、过去、将来和过去将来) 加上四个不同方式 (即一般、进行、完成和完成进行) 构成。因此, 在写作中要特别注意文章中前后时态的一致和呼应, 当然, 还要注意动词语态和不同语气的选择。

3.4 开头结尾遥望

任何文章都有一个中心思想或要讨论的主题, 一篇文章的行文不能天马行空, 一定要围绕主题句 (Topic) 或中心思想 (Central Idea) 去展开, 为了不偏离文章的轨道, 可采用五步作文法: (1) 选择一个主题; (2) 根据需要收集与主题相关的资料和信息; (3) 对收集来的信息进行分析、归类, 拿出写作提纲; (4) 开始写作; (5) 修改、定稿。在写作的过程中通常可在第一句或第一段就把要阐述的要点观点 (Point of view) 讲明白, 中间段落一般为观点的理由 (reasons) , 最后的段落为小结或总结 (summarizing) 以及趋势, 进一步强调自己观点的重要性或必要性等, 前后要相互照顾, 这是行文得以连贯通顺的必然要求。

英语写作能力差是大多数学生普遍存在的问题, 而这种能力在日益激烈的竞争中又尤为重要。只要我们的学生在平时学习中语言素材积累多了, 掌握了不同体裁的特点和格式, 又经常练习不断提高, 坚持不懈、持之以恒, 就能写出准确、生动、规范的英语文章。

摘要：本文将结合笔者自身教学和学习体会, 从英语文章的文体、写作训练方法、写作注意事项等方面对应用写作进行一定的研究, 期与同行商榷。

篇4：英语应用文写作要领

1. 有明确的读者对象。应用文都有明确特定的读者对象。

2. 有比较固定的格式。根据不同的写作内容和任务,不同的应用文有不同的、相对稳定的格式和行文方式。

下面,结合高考英语书面表达的要求,简要地介绍上述几种应用文的格式及写作要领。

一、 通知

通知分为口头通知和书面通知两种。

1. 口头通知

【格式】

(1) 称呼语。称呼语通常需根据听众的具体情况来确定。如在比较正式且男女听众兼有的场合,通常用Ladies and gentlemen 来称呼听众。如果在非正式场合,则比较随便,可以说Everyone。对学生用的称呼语通常是Boys and girls。

(2) 过渡语。在做口头通知时,通常要先将听众的注意力吸引过来,而后再做通知。常使用的过渡语有:

May I have your attention,please?

Attention please. I have an announcement to make.

Be quite. There is something important I have to tell you.

I have something (important) to tell you.

I’m glad to tell you something important.

(3) 正文。即通知的内容。

(4) 结束语。口头通知的结束语通常为:That’s all. Thank you.

2. 书面通知

【格式】

(1) 标题。书面通知要在正文的正上方写上Notice或大写NOTICE。

(2) 正文。即通知的内容。

(3) 落款。书面表达要表明出通知的时间和单位名称。时间放在正文的左下角,单位名称则放在右下角。

【要领】

(1) 书面通知较之口头通知所使用的句式要复杂些。书面通知可以将若干的信息通过一个句子表达出来,而口头通知则可以分为几个句子表达。如:

(2) 通知是要告诉大家即将进行的活动,因此其主要时态是一般将来时。

(3) 为避免命令之嫌,通知中常采用被动语态或“please + 祈使句”表示要求。如:

All teachers are requested to meet in the school meeting room at 4 p.m. on Friday to celebrate Teachers’ Day. Please be there on time.

【范例】

口头通知:

May I have your attention?

We will visit the Summer Palace on Wednesday,May 4th. It is the largest well-kept royal park in China. So I am sure you will be struck by its beautiful scenery. Please be on time at the hotel gate at 6:10 on Wednesday morning.

That’s all. Thank you.

书面通知:

Notice

Next Monday Professor Fan from Liaoning University will give us a lecture on how to learn a foreign language well in the meeting hall. The lecture will begin at 8:00. Please gather at 7:45 in front of the classroom building. Everyone is requested to take a notebook to take notes. After the lecture,we will have a talk.

Mar 3rd,2010 Students’ Union

二、 日记

【格式】

1. 日期、天气。日记正文左上方标明写日记当天的日期,右上方则写天气状况。

2. 正文。正文包括所记载的事情及对此发表的感想或评论。

【要领】

1. 日记以第一人称来写。

2. 日记多是在当天晚上来叙述当天发生过的事情,因此动词时态常使用过去时。但在进行景物、人物描写、发表见解、对话引语等时要使用现在时态。

3. 记事结束后要对所记之事发表自己的感想或评论,否则日记就成了流水账。

【范例】

Tuesday,Nov. 15th Fine

Today we began to receive a one-week military training. It was very cold and our military instructor,who is a twenty-year-old young PLA man,was very strict with us. But we tried our best to do what we were told to in high spirits and every one of us looked like real soldiers.

After the training,we were a little tired,but we felt very happy.

三、 书信

【格式】

1. 称呼,即对收信人的尊称,如:Dear John,Dear Mr. Tom,Dear Miss Liu等。

2. 正文,即信件的主要内容。

3. 信尾客套语,即写信人对收信人一种礼貌客气的谦称。一般有Sincerely; Yours sincerely; Friendly;Yours等。

4. 信尾签名,即亲笔签上写信人自己的姓名。

【要领】

1. 注意正文的开头。

一般地说,书信是写给家人、朋友、笔友等熟人,或某报刊杂志的编辑、某公司的经理等陌生人的。如果是写给熟人的书信,就无需将“书面表达”背景材料中用以确定写作身份的材料表达出来。可以首先做一番寒暄,而后向书信的主题过渡。但如果是写给陌生人的信件,则需要做自我介绍,再向主题过渡。如:

2. 注意说话的口吻。

写给熟人、同辈的书信与写给长辈、上级、陌生人的书信所使用的口吻应该是有差异的。写给前者的信语言可以直白些,而写给后者的信在口吻上要注意客气、委婉。如:

3. 注意正文的结尾。

将“书面表达”所规定的要点表达清楚后,正文需要一个恰当的结尾。如果书信是向对方提出自己的建议,则可以以I hope my advice is useful for you或I hope you could take my advice等结尾。如果书信是介绍你所居住的地方的变化、旅游景点等,则可以以I hope to see you here and I’m sure you will enjoy yourself结尾。如果是一封应聘信,则可以以If I get this job,I’ll do my best to do it well. Looking forward to your reply等结尾。总之,结尾要紧扣书信的主题和目的,同时注意语言要简练。

【书面表达练习】

假如你是Tom,你从父亲给你的来信中得知,由于他天天忙于工作而忽略了健康问题,对此你十分担忧。请你以此为话题,并结合提示给他写一封信。词数:80-100。提示:

1. 要走路去上班,而不是开车或坐车;

2. 每周至少锻炼一次,比如打球;

3. 饮食要健康;

4. 不要工作太晚,要早休息。

One possible version:

Dear Dad,

Glad to get your letter. But from it I know you’re so busy every day that you don’t pay much attention to your health. I’m worried about it. I’d like to give you some suggestions. I hear walking is the best sport. Your company isn’t far from home,is it? Why not walk to the office? You’d better take exercise at least once a week,such as playing basketball. What’s more,it’s necessary to have healthy food. Try not to stay up too late. Having enough sleep can help your brain work better.

Dad,please accept my advice. I really wish you health!

Yours,
