英语道歉书信格式【汇集20篇】

Dear Kate:

Excuse me for my long delaying in returning to you your “Robinson Crusoe”

which I read through with great interest. I had finished reading the book and

was about to return it when my cousin came to see me. Never having seen the

book, She was so interested in it that I had to retain it longer. However, I

hope that in view of the additional delight thus afforded by your book, you will

overlook my negligence in not returning it sooner. Thanking you again for the

loan.

Sincerely yours,

假若你是《21th century》报纸的编辑，有一学生向你写了如下的一封信，请你根据来

信的内容写一封回信，帮他出出主意。字数约为100左右。

Dear Editor,

My physics teacher is very strict with us. I often feel nervous in his classes because we are punished by being made to stand for a few minutes if we cant answer his questions. Its embarrassing (尴尬) to be made to stand in class, so I hate physics classes. However, I really want to do well in physics. What should I do?

Yours sincerely

Zhang Ying

Dear Zhang Ying,

I am sorry you are having difficulty with your physics classes. Teachers have many different ways of encouraging students to put in more effort — it seems as though your physics teacher thinks fear is the best way! He does it because he thinks it will produce results. If you feel that it is stopping you from doing your best then you should tell him. You say you want to do well in physics and if your teacher knows this, he will be pleased. It is only when students are not trying as hard as they can that a teacher is forced to take action. If he is aware of your worries, perhaps he will suggest other ways of helping you improve your work.

亲爱的张颖，

我很抱歉你在物理课上遇到了困难。老师们有许多不同的方式鼓励学生投入更多的精力，这似乎是你的物理老师认为恐惧是最好的方式！他这样做是因为他认为这会产生结果。如果你觉得这是阻止你做你最好的，那么你应该告诉他。你说你想在物理方面做得很好，如果你的老师知道这一点，他会很高兴的。只有当学生没有尽可能地努力，他们可以教师被迫采取行动。如果他知道你的担心，也许他会建议其他的方法来帮助你改善工作。

How to make apologize in a natural way

There is an old saying that no one is perfect, so everyone will make mistake sometimes, though we want to do best. When we make mistake, we must say sorry to others, for the purpose of showing our regret, so that they will forgive us and continue to keep in touch with us. Some people think apologize will lose their faces, so they choose not to say sorry. A wise person will make apologize in a natural way and let the past be past, the good way to apologize can help people feel easy. People can find the chance to apologize when they are having communication, they can make the topic about apologize and then saying that he is sorry about what he have done, so everything will seem easy. Apologizing will promote people’s communication and keep their friendship. So don’t feel losing face, just admit what you have done wrong.

有一句老话叫“没有人是完美的”，因此每个人都会偶尔犯下错误，虽然我们都想做到最好。当我们犯错误的时候，我们必须和别人道歉，以此来展现我们的悔意，这样人们就会原谅我们，继续和我们保持联系。一些人觉得道歉会让他们丢脸，因此他们选择不道歉。一个明智的人会用自然的方法来道歉，让过去的成为过去，好的道歉方法能让人们感到自在。人们可以在聊天的时候找到道歉的 ，他们可以转到道歉的话题，然后说对自己所造成的伤害表示不好意思，这样一切都会看起来轻松。道歉能促进人们间的交流和保持友谊。所以不要感到丢脸，用于承认自己的错误。

dear teacher ,

i am writing to you to express my thanks for your help in learning english and speaking english.

during these days in your class, i have learned much from you and it is very helpful to me. firstly, you let me know what is the west thinking pattern—straight thinking pattern. and, i think, it is very important to understand the west’s thoughts. as you know, this can help me with my examination and interaction with foreigners. secondly, i have got enough confidence in speaking in english from your class and it took me a long time to gain this confidence. now, i always express my ideas in english as possible as i can. it’s great to do that. the last not the least, i find that learning english is not an boring thing as before and i’m interested in studying english which was just a necessary task to pass examinations. reading, listening or speaking all become interesting and i really enjoy it.

above all, i want to say thanks again to you. and thank you for your time.

good luck ^_^

Dear Mr。 Wang，

I am writing to apologize for my late homework。 The paper which you have assigned to us last Monday was due this Friday， but to my regret， I havent even started it yet。 I feel really sorry for not handing in the paper on time and for the inconvenience it would bring to you。

I have caught a serious cold last week and the doctor asked me to stay in bed for a week since I was very weak and the weather was very cold these days。 Therefore， I couldnt go to the library to get the necessary referential information which was needed for my paper。 As a result of this， I have not started writing the paper yet and could not hand it in on time。

Fortunately I have finally fully recovered。 I will finish the paper as soon as I can and try my best to hand in homework on time in the future。

Sincerely yours，

Li Ming

Dear Mr Minister,

On behalf of the United States Government, I now outline steps to resolve this issue.

Both President Bush and Secretary of State Powell have expressed their sincere regret over your missing pilot and aircraft. Please convey to the Chinese people and to the family of pilot Wang Wei that we are very sorry for their loss. Although the full picture of what transpired is still unclear, according to our information, our severely crippled aircraft made an emergency landing after following international emergency procedures. We are very sorry the entering of Chinas airspace and the landing did not have verbal clearance, but very pleased the crew landed safely.

We appreciate Chinas efforts to see to the well-being of our crew. In view of the tragic incident and based on my discussions with your representatives, we have agreed to the following actions:

Both sides agree to hold a meeting to discuss the incident. My government understands and expects that our air crew will be permitted to depart China as soon as possible.

The meeting would be April 18, 2001.

The meeting agenda would include discussions of the causes of the incident, possible recommendations whereby such collisions could be avoided in the future, development of a plan for prompt return of the EP-3 aircraft, and other related issues. We acknowledge your governments intention to raise U.S. reconnaissance missions near China in the meeting.

Sincerely

Joseph W. Prueher

英语书信的格式与结构基本上是固定的,一旦选定其中一种便不能随意更改。商务英语的内容与其结构相应,其中七项是必不可缺的。熟练掌握商务英语书信的格式与结构是从事对外贸易工作的必备技能。下面是小编帮大家整理的正确的英语书信格式，希望大家喜欢。

我国实行对外开放以来,对外贸易得到迅速发展。WTO的成功加入,使我国的对外贸易事业有了突破和发展。作为对外贸易中的一种基本的通讯联络方式,商务英语书信也得到广泛应用。对于外贸专业的学生以及从事对外贸易的工作者来说,熟练掌握商务英语书信的格式与结构并加以应用,是不可或缺的一项技能。

商务英语书信有自己独特的格式与结构。虽然现在的人们喜欢标新立异,喜欢以一种更随意、更友好的方式进行交往,但是,为了避免寄信方和收信方之间由于格式、结构的不统一而引起的混乱,以及由此而带来的查找不便、使双方花费不必要的时间,所以,最安全、最有效的方法就是遵循国际上常用的、约定俗成的格式与结构。一旦选定一种格式与结构,最好是坚持使用,不能想改就改,想换就换,否则就会给对方一种不稳定、不踏实的感觉,会引起一些意想不到的麻烦,有可能最后导致交易的失败。

一般来说,现在使用的商务英语书信的格式主要有两种:传统的缩头式(the conventionalindented form) 和现代的齐头式(the modern blocked form) 。

根据英国传统做法,缩头式要在信文每一段缩进五或六个字母的空间,有时可能会缩进更多。现在,齐头式在商务英语书信中使用得非常普遍。它的突出特点就是所有信的内容都从信纸的左边开始,段落与段落之间要比缩头式多空出两到三行,以便于区分。这种格式被称作齐头式(the fullblocked form) 。但是,有时把日期放在信纸的左边会给查找带来不便,所以,人们使用了一种改良的齐头式(the modifiedblocked form) ,即把日期放在右边,而把其他内容放在左边。

一般来说,我们通常使用单行距来布局一封信,这会使我们所写的信有一种紧凑感,但有些人在写短信的时候,更喜欢用双行距。

根据个人或公司的喜好,可以选择使用齐头式或缩头式。但不论选择哪一种格式,一般商务英语书信的结构都包括以下几部分内容:

(1) 信头(the letter - head)

(2) 案号和日期(the reference and date)

(3) 封内名称和地址(the inside name and address)

(4) 开头称呼语(the salutation)

(5) 信文(the message or the body of the letter)

(6) 结尾敬语(the complimentary close)

(7) 写信人签名或签署(the writer’s signature and designation)

(8) 注意事项(the attention line)

(9) 事由、标题(the subject line)

(10) 经办人代号(the reference notation)

(11) 附件(the enclosure)

(12) 抄送(the carbon copy notation)

(13) 附言(the postscript)

在商务英语书信中,上述每一部分内容都有自己固定的位置,包含自己独特的内容,它们是不能随意互换的。

信头所包含的是写信人的基本情况,包括他的姓名、地址、电话号码、电传号码以及传真号码甚至E - mail 地址。信头在信纸的最上方,有的公司把信头直接印在所使用的信纸上。质量优良的信纸以及一个整洁、匀称的信头,可以展示一个公司的风采,增强公司的信誉。

案号是写信时所给的、以便查询的字母或数字。经常以“Our ref”和“Your ref”来区分。它的位置一般是在信头的右边。而日期在信头以下三行或四行,不管是齐头式还是缩头式,一般把日期放在右端,这可起到行尾的作用,使信看上去更整齐。在商务英语书信中,日期一定要写全,不能用数字的形式,因为美国和英国的日期标示法是不同的。英国的日期标示法是“24thMarch. 2002”, 而美国的日期标示法则是“March24 ,2002”。月、日的后面用逗号,年份后面不用标点。

封内名称和地址即收信人的名称和地址,要放在信纸的左上方,在日期以下三行或更多行,这可根据信的长短来定。

封内名称和地址要用齐头式,紧靠信纸的左边,这样会使信看上去整齐。

开头称呼语是写信人开始信文的礼貌用语,一般商务英语书信中多用Dear Sir , Dear Sirs 或Gentlemen ,并且独立成行,在封内名称和地址以下三行。在Dear Sir 或Dear Sirs 后面用逗号,而在Gentlemen 后面用冒号。

信文是实质性的内容,信文的书写要求是简洁、清晰、礼貌;语法正确,切中要点;段落划分明确,每段集中于一个话题;打印准确,布局要有艺术性,使你的信件看上去赏心悦目。尤其注意页边空栏,它是信文的框架。信文多用单行距,有些短信可用双行距。

结尾敬语是信件结束时的一种礼貌用语。它只是一种礼貌用语,在信中没有实际意义,传统使之成为必须,并已成为习惯,所以一直沿用至今。传统的结尾敬语有: Yours faithfully , Yours truly(多用于美国) 等,也有人用倒装的Faithfullyyours , Truly yours 等。结尾敬语必须和信文紧连一起,不能分开,更不能把它单独放到另一页。如遇此种情况,则信件必须重新安排、打印。

签署是写信人或其所代表公司的名称或标记。公司名称可以打印,而主管人签名则必须是手写,两者都不可用印章代替。这部分在结尾敬语以下三行,大约留出五行或更多的空间。

注意事项的习惯用语是:For the attention of 或简单的Attention ,下面一般要加上横线。当信件是写给特定的人或主办部门时,则用此用语。它在开头称呼语以上两行。除齐头式外,可放在信文以上中间。

事由或标题在开头称呼语以下两行,下加横线,除齐头式外,一般放在信文以上中间。经常是用一词或简单的几个词来表示信文的主题,让收信人先对所谈内容有所了解。

经办人代号在签署以下两行。是打字员名字的首字母缩写,可用小写,也可用大写。

附件在经办人代号以下两行。写信人可标示出一个或多个信中所提到的附件。经常使用的形式有: Enclosure , Enclosures ,Encl. ,Enc. 等。

抄送在附件以下两行。抄送有明、暗两种方式。明示的标记为cc ,后面加上收件人或公司的名字,可打印在原件和复印件上。暗示的标记为bcc ,后加收件人或公司的名字,只打印在复印件上,并且只有写信人和收信人知道。

附言在抄送以下两行。如写信人想增加些信中忘记提到的内容,可用此方式,但应尽量避免使用。因为它可能会给人一种错觉,即在写信前,你未能很好地安排你的信件。这可能会影响到你的信誉。

在上述十三部分内容中,前七部分是每一封商务英语信件所必需包含的内容,而后几部分则是可有可无的。

总之,当你书写商务英语书信的时候,必须谨记:选定一种格式,坚持使用,不能变来变去;结构中的内容要安排合理得当,所必需的七部分内容一个都不能少。布局好的信件是双方交易的好的开始。一封布局优雅、端庄匀称的信件,会留给人一种良好的印象,促进双方的进一步往来,直至交易的达成。
