Would you be so kind as to give a brief introduction to my academic performance during my undergraduate studies, especially that under your supervision? Besides, your personal opinion of me will carry special weight. I have to submit the letter next month. Thank you so much for your generous help in this matter. Yours sincerely, Henry Scott(二) 欢迎信范文 Dear Xiao Wang, Words failed me to express my excitement when I learned that you would like to spend your holiday together with me. It has been three years since we graduated from high school. I miss you so much that I even cant wait to see you. Now that it will be the first time you visit Beijing, I am sure that your journey will be exciting, rewarding and full of a lot of fun. Ive made a rough plan for this holiday as follows. On the first day you arrive here, I will show you around our new campus. Especially, I will take you to visit our newly-built modem library. During the second three days, wed better go sightseeing around Beijing. We can visit some famous scenic spots and historical sites, such as Summer Palace, the Forbidden City, the Great Wall, etc. On the fifth day, we can visit the Beijing Zoo, since you are quite interested in wild animals. The next day, we can do some shopping. There are many splendid markets and plazas in Beijing. On the last day, you can have a good rest before setting off. If there is anything inconvenient for you in this plan, please let me know immediately. By the way, since lots of people will go traveling in this holiday, it must be crowded on the train. So you should take care of your luggage. Bring more clothes with you because Beijing is much colder than Kunming at this time. And dont forget to tell me when you will arrive so that Ill pick you up at the airport. I am looking forward to your reply and wish you a god journey.

Its my long-cherished dream to pursue my study in your honored department. 我申请就读于贵系，这是我长久以来的愿望。6It would be appreciative of you if you could send me Some relevant information at your earliest convenience. 如果您能够尽快寄给我一些相关信息，我将不胜感激。7Could you send me an application form as wet/as some detailed information regarding. ?您能否寄给我申请表和有关的资料?8If further materials are required, I am only too willing to forward them to you. 如需其他材料，我非常乐意寄上。9I will certainly feel honored if I could be admitted to your university, which, renowned for its long history and a fine tradition of scholarship, enjoys a worldwide fame. 贵校历史悠久，治学严谨，享有世界声望，如果有幸能够成为贵校的学生，我将感到无比的荣幸。10Would you please let me know the procedures for admission at your earliest convenience?能够尽快告知我入学的有关程序。11I shah be glad to furnish you with any further information concerning my education and work experience. 我很乐意为您提供我个人学习和工作经历的有关资料。应用文写作 1.私人和公务信函 一、概述2.便笺(便条)和短信便条也是书信的一种形式。它的特点是内容简短，主要有临时性的询问、留言、通知、要求等。跟正规书信相比，便条的语言比较口头化，比如要通知某事只需这样开头：Just a line to tell you that .而无须像正规书信那样This is to inform you that .开头。另外，在便条中常出现省略现象，例如：“key to back door is under mat.”或者“key to back door under mat .”(后门钥匙在垫子下面)代之以“The key to the back door is under the mat.”。结束时也无需结尾礼词，只需写上写便条者姓名。如果是关系比较近的人，则只需写上姓或名。便条的日期通常写在右上角。一般只写上星期几或者星期几上午或下午，也可写上午、下午的具体时刻。日常应用中，写上几月几日的也很普遍。但一般不写年份，因为便条的内容多半是当日或近日内要办的事情。写便条时，不得事先准备，因此无固定格式，大多用手写。二、注意事项1.词句简洁，尽量避免应酬语和各种敬词2.切忌内容空洞、言不达意。请假（Asking for Leave）例1Class 4, Grade 3Aug. 22ndTo Department OfficeSecretary Li,Im sorry to apply for ten days leave from the Aug. 23rd to sept, 3rd instant. As I have to leave with the time is urgent. My father now in the hospital is badly ill. I have to go to see him and take care of him for a few days. You know Im the only child in my family. Of course I will show you the telegram about my fathers illness which is recieved from my mother to support my application.As concern as the missed lessons during my absence, I promise I will do my best to catch them on after I come back to the campus. Wish for your allowance. Yours respectfully 本文是一封请假条，一般我们要向上级或老师请假，通常用的是ack for leave这个短语，请三天假可写作：ask for three days leave;因病请假则是ask for sick leave.leave在这里是名词用法，文中用的短语是apply for意为“申请”，含有更加郑重的意味，常用于下级对上级或晚辈对长辈的书面语中，“Only child”意为“独生子女”相应的，“独生女”译作“only daughter”而“独生子”译作“only son”. As concern as.后面跟名词性结构，意为“涉及到，至于”与Concerning同意，两者可以互换。道歉（Apology）此类信要写得及时，态度要诚恳，用词需谦逊。一般在信一开始就向对方表示歉意或内疚，然后说明原因并提出补救的办法。例1Directions: You have missed a date of your friend, now you have to write a letter for appologization in about 100 words.May 20thDear Lily,I am sorry I missed seeing you yesterday. I know that you must have been disappointed. I also feel worried and anxious in my heart. The fact is that my manager at the last moment asked me to prepare a urgent plan while I could not get to a phone to call you and yesterday I have worked late until about 8:30 p. m. I am terribly sorry.However, I would like to ask you out this weekend to make up for yesterday. Please give me a chance and I am waiting for your reply. 临时有事未能赴约，一定要把事情解释清楚并真诚的道歉，最好能有弥补（to make up），就像这封信里所说的那样，邀请对方周末再碰头（I would like to ask you out this weekend）注意英文句子you must have been disappointed中情态动词的用法：情态动词+完成时态，表示过去行为。这句话应该理解为“你当时一定感到很失望”。3 应用文写作 备忘录备忘录是一种录以备忘的公文。在公文函件中，它的等级是比较低的，主要用来提醒、督促对方，或就某个问题提出自己的意见或看法。在业务上，它一般用来补充正式文件的不足。它的内 容可以分为以下几项：书端（Heading）;收文人的姓名、头衔、地址（Addressees Name, Title, Address）；称呼(Salutation)；事因(Subject)；正文（Body） ；结束语（Complimentary Close）；署名（Signature）。二、注意事项 书端部分包括发文机关的名称、地址、发文日期，有的还包括电报挂号、电传号、电话号码等。许多机关有自己特制的信笺，在写书端时，其格式和标点符号的使用与一般信件的相同。收文人（或收文单位）的姓名、头衔、地址一项写在左上角编号处的下面，其格式与书信的写法相同。称呼从左边顶格写起，对一般机关、团体的负责人一般用 Dear Sir， 对政府官员可用 Sir。“事因”一项目前采用得较少。它可放在称呼语之前，也可放在其后，前面可加 Re或Docket, Subject。如果此项写在称呼语之前，多从左边的顶格写起；若放在称呼语之后，一般写在信笺正中。它多采用不完整的句子，只需很少几个词，甚至一个词，目的在于使收文人对文中的主要内容一目了然，便于及时处理。正文、结束语和署名等项与一般信件的格式相同。三、举例 例1Directions: Write a memorandum of about 100 words to the student service department and ask them to fix a telephone for each dormitory.MEMO August 16,2004To:The leader of student service departmentFrom: Li MingSubject:TelephoneDear Sir,I would like to remind you that we are in want of a telephone for each dormitory. As a university student, we need to cope with the daily increasing communications with teachers, friends and people outside the campus.We need a telephone to get and send message, which is important for us. Though most of us have mobile phones and e-mail address, a telephone in the dormitory is after all the most convenient and cheapest tool of communication. I hope that you will pay attention to this problem and solve it as soon as possible.Regards. Yours， Li Mingremind”一词用法比较多，可以在后面直接接人或宾格，如“提醒我”译为please remind me.如果提醒某人某事则用remind somebody of something ，也可以在后面加从句，即“remind sb that”,remind还有一个意思为“使想起”同样用remindof的结构，应注意与提醒某事区分。通知通知是上级对下级、团体对个人部署工作、传达事情或召开会议时所用的一种文体。同级单位有事情要进行讨论或协商，也可以互发通知。通知分两种：一种是以布告形式，把事情通知有关人员；另一种是以书信形式，把相关事情传达给有关人员。一般说来，通知正文上面正中的地方往往有 Notice 或 NOTICE 一词作为题目，正文的下面是发出通知的单位名称。有时，发出通知单位的名称也可写在正文之前。发出通知的日期一般写在左下角；发出通知的人或单位的名称，可以写在右下角。这两项有时也可以省略。发出通知的单位和通知对象一般都用第三人称，但若正文前用了称呼语，则应用第二人称表示被通知的对象。例1Directions:If you are the organizer of a tour and you should give a notice to tell the tourists something about it. It should include:1)Where is the destination of the tour.2)What should the tourists pay attention to.You should write no less than 100 words.NOTICE TO TOURISTS According to the schedule, the touring party will visit the Summer Palace and Tian Anmen Square today. You can leave your baggage in the Left Baggage Office and pick it up later this afternoon if it is too heavy to carry with you. The receipt of the baggage should be kept carefully because you will need it. We will come to the Summer Palace first and finish the tour at 2 pm. The
