英语写作范文之公文写作－－启事

启事是一种公告性的应用文。机关、团体或个人如有什么事情向他人公开说明某事或请求帮助，或对群众有什么要求，可把要说的意思简要地写成启事。启事有多种，象寻人启事、寻物启事、征婚启事、开业启事等等。

1、寻物启事

A Jacket Lost

In the playground, May12, a Jacket, green in colour and with a zipper in the collar lost, finder please return it to the owner, Krutch. Room 203, Dormitory 9.

寻茄克衫

5月12日本人不慎在操场丢失一件绿色，领口有拉链的茄克衫。拾到者请把茄克衫还给失主克鲁奇。地点九号宿舍楼203房间。

2：订婚启事

NOTICE OF ENGAGEMENT

Mr. and Mrs. Holand Walshman have the honour to announce the engagement of their daughter, Miss Lucy, to Mr. Samual Russell on Saturday, August 11, 1997.

订婚启事

荷兰德·沃尔什曼先生及夫人荣幸地宣布，他们的小女露西与塞穆尔·罗素先生于一九九七年八月十一日（星期六）订婚，兹特敬告亲友。

英语写作范文之自传

英文自传是应聘外资公司时又一道必不可少的程序。它是指求职者自述本人生平经历的书面材料，也是对求职者个人简历的一种补充.自传的写作内容除姓名，性别，年龄，出生地，家庭情况，学历之外，工作经历，工作业绩，科研成果，求职目的，奖惩情况等内容尤为重要。自传的内容决定了它可以带有一些个人化的语言和充满感情的表述，与公事公办的简历，求职信不尽相同，因此往往大型的外国公司和机构非常看重。申请出国留学时，自传（personal statement）的质量和内容也是成功的关键。撰写英文自传时，不要一味说空话套话，有时一个日常生活中的小例子远胜于长篇累牍的流水帐。还要特别注意：既不能自吹自擂，也不必过于谦虚，应该本着实事求是，不卑不亢的原则。

下附一例，以作说明：

Personal Statement/Autobiography

My name is Fang Yan. I am 24 years old and male. I was born in Taiyuan, Shanxi Province. There are three people in my family including me, and I am the only son.

My father is an electronic engineer and my mother is a teacher of English. I completed elementary, junior and senior high school in Taiyuan. In 1993, I entered Shanghai Jiaotong University and graduated in 1997 with a bachelor's degree in computer science. Since then I have been working as a computer programmer in Shanghai Wanda Company.

Influenced by my father, I've been interested in electronics since I was quite young. I love breaking down and reassembling little gadgets in spare time as well. I still remember that I made a portable transistor radio by myself in junior high school. And I made it a part-time job repairing TV sets and radios for neighbours in senior high.

Since childhood, I've been taught by my parents to make friends with people around and always keep good manners in public. Besides, I learn the importance of helping people out when they need it most by doing my part-time job.

Besides, I like sports very much and I am physically well.

Of course I do admit that I have some shortcomings. I can be shy when speaking in the presence of large crowds of people. Sometimes I am hesitant in making quick decisions. But I'm sure I will be able to overcome them.

Now I'm applying for a position in your company. I believe a whole new working environment will surely provide better chances for me to build up future career and personal characters.

Thank you very much.

英语写作范文之英文E-mail

随着电脑走进千家万户，一张无形的巨网也悄然织起。这就是Internet（因特网，国际互联网）。一旦连接了Internet，信息传递就成为一件非常轻松惬意的事情。在网上最常使用的服务就是E-mail （电子邮件，electronic mail，常缩略为E-mail，e-mail 或email），这是因为电子邮件不但使用方便、传播快捷、可以一信多发，而且价格十分低廉，特别适合国际间的交流。

那么e-mail有什么写作要领呢？

首先，必须要标题（Heading）栏的'收件人（To）'框中输入收信人的E-mail 地址。'主题（Subject）'框的内容应简明地概括信的内容，短的可以是一个单词，如greetings；长的可以是一个名词性短语，也可以是完整句，但长度一般不超过35个字母。'主题'框的内容切忌含糊不清。像News about the meeting 这样的表达，应改为Tomorrow's meeting canceled。一般来说，只要将位于句首的单词和专

有名词的首字母大写即可。另外一种较为正规的格式可将除了少于5个字母的介词、连接词或冠词之外的每一个单词的首字母大写，如：New E-mail Address Notification。视信的内容是否重要，还可以开头加上URGENT或者FYI（For Your Information，供参考），如：URGENT：Submit your report today!

第二，E-mail一般使用非正式的文体，因此正文（Body）前的称呼（Salutation）通常无须使用诸如'Dear Mr. John'之类的表达。在同辈的亲朋好友或同事间可以直呼其名，但对长辈或上级最好使用头衔加上姓。如：Tommy，或者Mr. Smith。

第三，E-mail文体的另外一个特点是简单明了，便于阅读，太长的内容可以以附件的方式发出。一个段落大多仅由一到三个句子组成。信尾客套话（Complimentary close）通常也很简明。常常只须一个词，如：'Thanks'，'Best'，'Cheers'，不需要用一般信函中的'Sincerely yours'或'Best regards'。称呼和正文之间，段落之间，正文和信尾客套话之间一般空一行，开头无须空格。如：

Jimmy,

I received your memo and will discuss it with Eric on Wednesday.

Best,

David

在电子邮件的使用者中还流行使用一些由首字母或读音组成的缩略词，如：

d u wnt 2 go out 2nite：Do you want to go out tonight?

lol：Laughing out loud

oic：Oh, I see.

mte：My thoughts exactly.

brb：I'll be right back.

c u 2morrow：See you tomorrow.

fanx 4 ur elp：Thanks for your help.

gr8：great

btw：By the way

imho：In my humble opinion

asap：As soon as possible.

另外，网友们为了给枯燥的文字加入感情色彩，还创造了一种表示感情的小符号，英语叫smiley.如：：-）代表'I'm smiling at this'，：-（代表'I'm sad about this'。

上述缩略词和小符号要视具体情况而定，不宜滥用。

E-mail的非正式的文体特点并不意味它的撰写可以马虎行事，特别是给长辈或上级写信，或者撰写业务信函更是如此。写完信后，一定要认真检查有无拼写、语法和标点符号的误。当然Outlook Express等软件的'拼写检查'功能可以助你一臂之力。

英语写作范文之学术文章写作注意要点

以我在美求学的经验，向大家提一些尽量可以避免的写作常识问题，希望对大家的考试，乃至以后赴美求学的漫漫征程有所裨益。时间所限，不可能写全，但是我会不断补充的。还有在文章中引用的那些片断，并没有攻击作者的意思，只不过拿出来和大家探讨一下。

1、避免使用反问句、设问句。特别是作者也没有答案的问题。

例如： What’s the objective of the information? Is it to make people more confused and astray?

I partly agree with the author’s contention that the enormous and otiose information sometimes render people lose their way and fail to consider question penetratingly and originally.

在作文的开头就扔出两个问题，然后接下来的陈述却与问题基本毫无干系。作为读者，首先要考虑那两个问题的答案到底是什么，然后才能往下读。这些在中文里可能会被评作“引人入胜”的好词好句，在英语的论文写作里面，可以说是最大的败笔之一。如果你一定要问问题的话，那就改成陈述句式，例如：Whether this issue is right or wrong? 可以改成：It has been a controversial issue that.....

2、避免集中使用"Be"动词，包括is, are, has been, have been, etc.

即使GRE考题statement里面有很多"Be"动词，你也要避免照抄，因为statement是浅显地告诉你一个idea，而不是向你展示writing。

例如：What is the purpose of education? Some people may say that the purpose of education should be to create a totally academic environment that separates from the outside world, for, they think, this situation allows students to focus on their academic research work without being disturbed by practical concerns. In fact, this suggestion is harmful to the scientific research work.

这是某一篇文章的开头。我们现在只是分析语法问题。作者除了要注意不要使用疑问句以外，还有很重要的一点：总共两三句话，出现4个"Be"动词。这种写法，在英语里面被称作"non-act"的动词。"Be" 仅仅表示一种状态，例如："i am here", "you are there". 对于母语者来说，"Be"动词其实就是写在纸上，而没有任何感情色彩。所以应该尽量避免成篇累牍地使用。我们的例子可以改为：

Some people argue that the purpose of education lies in its strength in creating a totally academic environment separated from the outside world. They think this situation allows students to focus on academic research by excluding outside disturbance from practical concerns. However, this suggestion in fact does harm to the scientific research work.

我们可以看到，使用了lie in, exclude, do harm to以后，句子更有色彩了。

3、尽量避免重复使用单词或者词组。特别是近距离集中在某一两句话里使用。

例如：The author argues that to understand one’s own culture, one must know about at least one another culture which is distinctly different from one’s own culture. While as I am concerned, I can’t agree with the author’s assertion.

这一个开头，总共两行字，却连续出现了4个One，3个culture。如果你把这段话大声朗读一下，就会觉得别扭、好笑了。连续使用相同的单词或者词组（包括短句），体现的是作者词汇量匮乏，写作风格较差，遣词造句能力不强。给读者的感觉就是昏昏欲睡。

很容易的我们就可以改正：The author argues that the knowledge of another distinctly different culture helps us to truly understand our own. However, I disagree with this assertion.

这句话把原来的三句分句合成了并无冗长感觉的一句。精简的同时，也恰当地避免了重复多次使用culture，one的问题。用了"this assertion"，也避免了在近距离使用两个"author"。

4、避免使用从句套从句的超长句子。

学术性的文章，应当避免追求华丽词藻和句型。作为非母语者，我们在语感上面已经处于劣势。为了避

免缺乏语感而造成的很多语法上面、句子结构上面的小失误，我们更应该尽量避免使用长句。看了很多作者

的文章，长句造成的后果通常有：单复数混淆，it、that指代不清，从句两头时态不符，连接介词错误，等。

例如：Things happened in the past, known as history, is great treasure for us huan beings, through and only through studying the past can we gain valuable experience which serves as a means of guiding our development of the society.

例子中作者用了3处逗号，而事实上面，从句间关系并非密不可分。我们可以很轻松的分成三句话，作

者写得安心，读者读得舒心，做到真正的言必达意。

History consists of the things happened in the past and it is a great treasure to human beings. Through and only through studying the past thoroughly can we gain valuable experience from history. The historical experience serves as a means of guidance for the new development in the society.

5、避免陈词滥调等废话

例如：For getting a satisfying score, students have to prepare for and review their texts frequently, remember all the knowledge they have learned deep in mind, enlarge their learning if

it is possible and so on, especially when examinations are coming. All these efforts, no matter what their aims are, will surely lead to a corresponding paying back.

段中的这一句"no matter what their aims are"，在整个上下文表达上面没有任何实质性的意义，完完全全是句废话。
