给女朋友的一封信英语作文（通用20篇）

静，许久没有与你联系了。你还好吗，叔叔阿姨还好吗？是不是觉得“还好吗”这句话太过的没有底气，我自己都觉得太过的生硬。既然是朋友为什么不经常联系，既然是朋友那好不好应该知道的一清二楚。在这一点上我该是很惭愧的，在此还是要请你原谅了。

静，每每打开空间都能看到你发的心情，这也让我大致了解了你现在的境况。图书馆里的拼搏，期待梦想降临的心情，工大的通知书，校园里欢快的身影，健康向你开的玩笑，舍不得的长发……这都是你的故事“丰富而精彩”无论你深陷怎样的境遇都充满并传递着正能量。这样的你确实是你自己，那个坚强的乐观的永远不会认输的你。

静，我总是觉得有些朋友虽然很少联系，可那段友谊决不会被岁月风化成尘埃，反而更加的坚固。这难道就是距离产生的美？但愿，也希望如此。或许，这只是我个人的想法，但我可以肯定是有这种想法的不仅仅只有我一个。你说呢，静？

静，今天与你联系是有原由的。这种原由其实很简单，仅仅是因为友情，一段曾经的友情，曾经被太多人歆羡了的友情。你和盼盼之间应该是这样的吧，但愿我说的没错，如果不是这样那该是我的错了。

静，今天我收到了盼盼的信息。说实话这是让我有些意外的，可是之后的话又将我的意外感彻底的消除了。盼盼说，向我打听个事情，问我你现在生活的好不好。我能如何回答呢，除了空间里那仅有的信息我一无所知，我是不是应该惭愧一番。可是，盼盼连这些基本的关于你的事情都不知道，想来我还是该庆幸的，盼盼应该比我还要惭愧才对啊。你说呢，静？

静，你与盼盼曾经的好我是知道的，可后来发生了怎样的事情以至于让你们形同陌路，这我就不得而知了。我不知道，也不会去问，我只知道静与盼盼曾经很要好。那时的你们该是如影随形吧，你们该比任何人都了解对方。可现在你们就像两个小孩子，为了那看似很重要的“糖果”打闹了起来，谁想这一闹就是两年呢。说起来，两年并不长，闹了两年还没结束说明闹的时间还短；可两年又很长，让人身心疲惫无以附加。其实，你们早已释怀，只是害怕向对方迈出脚步。你说呢，静？

静，盼盼拜托我替她关心一下你。这让我无地自容，我距离你这么近都不曾说出过“关心”这两个字，真是要埋怨我的不是了。可关心可以去替代吗？如果真的可以，那我真的愿意。我问盼盼，你们曾经那么好，这难道就是“物极必反”吗？盼盼说，距离产生美。我倒要问了，距离真的产生美了吗？如果真的美，那“伤离别”岂不是成了悖论。即使有美的存在，那这种美也是禁不起半点风吹草动的。

静，这样的局面该责怪谁呢？只怪我们曾经年少，只怪不懂得珍惜？到头来总有人要迈出这艰难的一步。到底该是谁呢，这并不重要，重要的是有人先迈出那一步。当然，不迈又有什么关系呢，不过陌路，仅此。你说呢，静？

静，我是在不知事情前后因果的情况下拼凑了这些文字，在此我必须请求你的原谅。如果真如我所述，那我也逃不了自责，但起码不至于酿成罪过。如若完全是我主观捏造虚构成事，那只有请你海涵了，就当是我练了练文字吧。

静，祝你生活愉快，带我向叔叔阿姨问好。

附赠，盼盼电话。

晚安。

亲爱的田佳琪：

你好!

这是我第一次给你写信，也许有些不好，请你谅解。

一转眼，我在温州已经待了一年多了，可以前的故事，还是印在我脑海里难以消失，那和你在一起的日子，我永远忘不掉。

还记得那次吗?我的腿摔伤了，而且流了很多的血。当时好多同学只是问一下就走了，还有的竟然还笑话我。正在我泪流满面的时候，你从楼上飞快地跑了下来。你表情是心疼的，眉头是紧锁的，为此，我感到很欣慰，很开心，我有一个这样好的朋友。

你蹲了下来，轻轻地吹着我受伤的位置：“没事吧!我扶你上去!”于是我就随着你的挽扶，慢慢地上了楼。

想起这件事，我就很感动，只有你给了我温暖，只有你懂我!

说实话，我现在有时做梦都梦到你，你那和蔼的笑容，让我就有了力量。

你在老家还好吗?真不知道你现在变成什么样子了，还像以前一样活泼吗?我好想你呀!如果你能到温州来玩该多好呀!我将做你的最佳导游!我带你去最刺激的温州乐园，你去了一定会害怕的!我还要带你去雁荡山、楠溪江，感受大自然的气息。对了，你一定还没有看过大海吧!我要带你去!让你喝口海水，呵呵!让我们一起拥抱大海!

也许你不会来温州，但是我要在信中请你来玩!希望能通过信让你知道我的心意，好吗?

祝你学习

更上一层楼!

你的好评

When we have something annoy us, we will naturally to find someone to talk

about it, the first choice is friend. We will not talk about it in front of our

parents, because we don’t want them to worry about us. Friend is so important in

our life, we have many friends, we will share our happiness and sorrow with

them, we hang out together, in a word, friends are part of our life. What will

happened if someone have no friend? We hear from the news that the crime people

are isolated by others, most of them have no friends, their view point about the

world is distorted. Without friends, people have no where to relieve their

emotion, the long time’s depression of the emotion distract people from the

normal life. So friends are very important, we can’t live without friends.

亲爱的朋友： 你最近还好吗？你还记得我吗？我们曾经无话不说，我们曾经无视不做，我们曾是一对令人羡慕的青梅竹马；可是现在的我们却如同陌生人一样不再交谈。这是为什么呢？是青春的羞涩吗？是外人的挑拨吗？还是几年不见使我们之间有了隔阂呢？不，我不相信这些能撼动我们那深厚的友谊。 在我认为这是因为我们都变了。你不再是以前那个活泼可爱的小女孩了，而是一个追求时尚、追求潮流的青少年，望着你那染过色的头发我不敢相信这是我认识的你，也不敢相信这还是我的朋友。 朋友，你还记得吗？曾经在我上幼儿园的时候，我妈为我交了学费，可我却犟得像头牛一样不愿去学校，我妈想尽了一切办法却还是没有用。就在这时，一个人出现了，那就是你，我的朋友。你带着我玩泥巴、玩积木，让我感到了快乐。可是就在几天后你对我说你要上幼儿园了，而我为了能继续和你在一起玩也随你去上学了。就这样我傻乎乎的掉进了你和我妈共同设计的圈套之中。 朋友，你还记得吗？在上小学时，我们又被分到了同一个班级，我门俩一起上学、一起回家、一起吃饭、一起躺在床上唱的慢慢的，我们之间的友谊得到了加深。还记得小学三年级的时候，我的头被人打得出血了，为此我请了一周的假在家养伤。当时没有一个同学拉看我，可是你却坚持每天来我家看望我、安慰我，甚至还每天为我补习功课。正当我们都沉睡在这友谊之中时，一切都破碎了。那天，我们正在学校上课，我在认真的做作业，突然，你和你的同桌发生了矛盾，你有意无意的骂了一句：“姓刘的没一个好东西。”这句话深深的刺进了我的心里，顿时一阵怒火由心中迸发出来，我过身对你来了个重重的右钩拳，我又将你的课桌掀起压在你的身上。事后老师将我们叫到了办公室训了一顿，直到那时我才知道你的头被砸出了一个大包。事后我后悔不已，可我却没有勇气去向你认错。直到你第二学期学离开了，我才发现你在我生命中有多么重要。从此以后，我们很少再见面，即使见了面也没再说过一句话。你知道吗？玩我多么想和你说一声“对不起”，可我却没有勇气也没有机会了。朋友你知道吗？我一直以为是因为我打你你才走的，慢慢的我变了，变得内向了，直到现在再回想起来我才知道你学不是因为我打了你，因为你不会这么斤斤计较，也不会对我这样。朋友对不起，以前是我太冲动了，希望你能原谅我。 朋友，你还好吗？每当我听到这首歌时我都会想起你，想起我们过

去的快乐种.种，那些场景像电影一样在我脑海中回放，使我久久不能忘记。 朋友，对不起，我对以前向你犯的所有错误道歉，希望你能原谅我。朋友，无论你以后会变成什么样，请你记住你还有我这样一个朋友。 祝你平安幸福！ 你永远的朋友

People always say that the way a person treats the waiter decides what kind

of person he is. I agree with it. My parents are polite persons. Since I was

very small, they have educated me the manner. Like I shouldn’t talk while eating

and talking loudly in public occasion is banned. The good manner helps me to be

a better person.

Tom is my best friend. Who is he? He is a dog. He is a special dog. My

father give him to me at my 10 year birthday. The moment I saw him, I love him.

His fur is white. He is very lovely. He knows how to make me happy. Everyday

when I come back from school, I will play with him. He is also smart. He will

drag my quilt if I sleep late. Besides, if my clock doesn’t alarm in the

morning, he will bark at me. See, he is so clever that I couldnt help loving

him.

Dear Xiaoming,

I’m so excited about my trip to xining. Now i am writing to ask you for

help. Can you answer my questions? Thanks!

First, what is the weather like in your city? Does it snow a lot in winter?

I need to have the right kinds of clothes and shoes. Next, what kind of food do

you ususally have in your family? Finally, what festival do you have during my

stay in xining? I will arrive on dec. 28 and leave on feb. 26. I hope there are

more interesting things to do together with your family.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Dear Ms. Reinhart,

I am terribly sorry that I failed to arrive at BLCU last Friday. I hope that this did not mess you up completely, although I know that you had already made some special arrangements for my visit with you parents and friends. I am very sorry about all that. I am sure you will be sympathetic, however, when I tell you that my father is dangerously ill in hospital, and that I found it impossible to leave for the visit when he is in this state.

My father was working very hard on his project on protecting the environment. I know the project has come to a very important stage. He and his assistants did not take regular rest for three weeks. Last night, my father had a heart attack and was soon sent to the hospital. The doctor said my father was in a very serious situation, and, he might need an operation.

24 hours have passed. Nothing has changed. I have to stay at the hospital. I will let you know if there is any good news.

I am sorry again and look forward to seeing you soon.

Yours sincerely,

Tom Williams

蓝晶晶：

你好！弹指一挥间，我们以有两年没见过面了吧！你学习怎么样了呀！

提笔之前，我有千言万语想对你说，可提起笔却又不只从何说起。在我俩相处的四年来，我俩有过欢声笑语，也有过嗑嗑碰碰。有一件事，让我的心久久不能平静。

你还记得吗？那一次我把你最心爱的钢笔弄坏了，当时我不知所措，心里像十五个吊桶打水——七上八下的。趁你不在的时候把钢笔偷偷地塞进你的铅笔盒里。当你走进教室把我拉到外面跳牛皮筋时，看你那么高兴，还一直把我当做你的知心朋友，我正想把事实告诉你，可话到嘴边就是说不出口，因为我怕你会责怪我，怕你为此与我伤了和气。直到星期五上写字课时你才发现你的钢笔坏了，老师还以为你没做好课前准备，批评了你一顿。在老师批评你的那一刻，我的心也在痛，时时谴责自己。下课时，你搭着我的肩说：“不知道是哪个家伙，把我的钢笔弄坏了？哼！如果让我知道是谁干的，决饶不了他！”“不是我，不是我！请你相信我！”我急忙争辩道。“人家又没说你，你急什么呀！”

每天晚上，墙上的挂钟“滴滴答答”的响着，好像在对我说：“说谎！说谎！”我心里像打翻了五味瓶，很不是滋味。说实话，虽然靠说谎过了关，可我总觉得脸上发热，好像有熊熊烈火在燃烧，比挨打挨骂还难受。你知道吗？我真的好后悔，好后悔，后悔我不应该隐瞒你，后悔……

今天，我鼓起勇气，诚心诚意地对你说一声“对不起！”

祝学习进步！更上一层楼！

你的金兰姐妹：__

Dear Miss Zhu,

亲爱的周老师，

How time flies! It has been a few years since I left high school, but I still remember you in my heart, because you’re the best teacher in my mind. It’s not only because you taught me knowledge, but also you taught me how to study. I have really benefitted a lot from you. So I would like to express my great thanks to you, and share my life in college with you.

时间飞逝!我高中毕业已经几年了，但我仍然把你记在我的心里，因为你是我心目中最好的老师。这不仅是因为你教与我知识，而且你还教我如何学习。从你身上我真的获益匪浅。所以我想向你表达我的感谢，并与你分享我的大学生活。

Now I’m studying in Hunan First Normal College, which is Chairman Mao’s former school. I major in English, because I find it so fun and interesting. As far as I’m concerned, our English Department is the best department in our college. The teachers in our department are knowledgeable, experienced, and warm-hearted. And my classmates are nice, friendly and helpful. Thus, I have a good atmosphere to study. When I have difficulties in study, I always ask my teachers for help or discuss with my classmates. Through their help, I have made great progress in my English study.

我现在在湖南第一师范学校学习，这是主席之前呆过的学校。我的专业是英语，因为我觉得它很有趣。我觉得我们英语系是我校最好的学部。我们系的老师知识渊博，经验丰富，热心肠。我的同学们也很和蔼，友好，乐于助人。因此，我拥有一个很好的学习氛围。当我在学习上遇到困难时，我总是向我的老师寻求帮助或与同学讨论。在他们的帮助下，我在英语学习上取得了很大的进步。

College life is much different from high school life. In college, we should acquire knowledge as well as improve our integrated abilities. There are a lot of English classes for us to learn, such as Basic English, Oral English, Listening, Reading, Writing, Translation, Grammar, English Literature, and so on. I enjoy these classes very much. Except English, we have many other subjects to learn. Life seems so busy here but it’s so fruitful for me.

大学生活与高中生活有很大的不同。在大学，我们要获取知识也要提高我们的综合能力。我们要上很多的英语课，比如，基础英语，英语口语，听力阅读，写作，翻译，语法，英语文学等。我非常喜欢这些课。除英语外，我们还要学习很多其他科目。在这里生活是如此的忙碌，但这对我来说是如此丰硕的收获。

After class, I usually go to the English Corner. There I can practice my oral English by talking with foreigners or chatting with my schoolmates. Now, I’m able to communicate with foreigners well. Sometimes I also take part in some social activities. For instance, last weekend I attended an interesting play. As it was my first performance, I felt a little nervous at the beginning. But when I appeared on the stage, I made every audience laugh happily. I was so proud of myself at that moment, because this was my first achievement.

下课后，我经常去英语角。在那里我可以通过与外国人或我的同学聊天来练习我的英语口语。现在我可以很好的和外国人交流了。有时候我也可以参加一些社交活动。例如，上周我参加了一个有趣的表演。因为是我第一次表演，所以一开始的时候我觉得有点紧张。但当我出现在舞台上时，我让每一个观众都开心的笑了。在那一刻，我为我自己感到骄傲，因为这是我的第一个收获。

What about your present life? I hope to hear from you soon.

你目前生活怎么样呢?希望很快能收到你的回信。

At last, I hope everything goes well with you. Please give my best regards to your family.

最后，我希望你一切顺利。请代我向你的家人问好。

Sincerely yours,

Jason

你好!

我先介绍一下自己吧!我叫__

你现在很想知道我长什么样儿吧!我有着一双炯炯有神的大眼睛，乌黑亮丽的头发，像月牙似的弯弯的眉毛、樱桃小嘴，走起路来马尾辫一甩一甩的，很有自信，许多叔叔与阿姨都夸我不但人长得漂亮，还听话懂事。

你一定会感到莫名其妙，为什么会突如其来地收到一封陌生人的`来信呢?其实，这是因为我从老师那里了解到要给远方的小朋友写信，所以我诚心诚意地希望能和你交朋友。

说到这里，你一定迫不及待地想知道我的一些情况吧!我生活在一座风景如画、四面环山的城市——重庆九龙坡区。我不但热爱班集体，而且热爱我的学校。那里是一个风景优美的读书圣地。有一个绿茵茵的操场，三座楼房，分别为综艺楼、朵朵教学楼和行政楼。综艺楼的旁边有小水池和假山。小水池周围镶嵌着不大整齐的鹅卵石，假山上长着几条爬山虎，爬山虎的叶子一顺朝下，在阳光下显得精神抖擞。远远看去假山就像一头大象，戴着一顶碧绿的帽子，站在校园的一角。池边有两棵腊梅树，它的枝干曲曲折折的，延伸到水池的中央，它摆弄着婀娜的腰姿，就象两位少女在梳妆打扮。下雨天，小水池就像是珍珠泉一般，使人赏心悦目。

要是我们成为了好朋友，就可以经常通信了，那该有多好!书信交流方便，只要我们笔尖稍稍一动，就可以取得联系。虽然我们相隔甚远，可是书信是没有界限的。因为咱俩成绩在班上名列前茅，可以相互交流自己对生活、对学习的看法，从而达到取长补短的效果。

在此，我想在我们的“手拉手“活动提一些小小的建议。第一，让我们相互仔仔仔细细地介绍自己的个人情况;第二，把我们生活、学习中所遇到的小困难、小问题倾诉出来，让对方帮忙解决;第三，分享趣事、交流学习经验。只有这样彼此之间了解，才能增进我们的友谊，共同进步。

我坚信，如果我们带着一颗火热的心，就一定能成为朋友。让我们一起手拉着手，肩并着肩，在灿烂明媚的阳光下，天天快乐，健康成长吧!

祝：

学业进步!

年月日

I have a good friend, when I was five years old, I met her, she is my

neighbor, we became friends and play together all the time. Last week, my friend

took part in the female basketball match, she is good at basketball, so I

encouraged her to join our school team. The team played so well that they came

to the final yesterday, the match was so excellent, at last, my friend’s team

won the first place, I feel so happy, I plan to buy her a present and

congratulate her. I feel so proud of her, she inspires me, too. We give each

other encourage to move on. We will be good friends forever.

Of course in the whole wild world, there is only one place with which is

the coldest; and that is in Antarctica.

It was a beautiful fact that once or twice a year, there was going to be a

big parade; now nobody ever heard of that story; but let me tell you all about

it, one the North pole until all the way to its opposite.

After a day or two, the magnificent magician of the great London, is ready

to travel for its reward, of saving he town from a dangerous earthquake. After

that, he helped the poor people recover and saved a lot of townspeople that were

suffering for life.

When he was fully packed to go and travel, he double checked everything had

he was going to use or should I say need. Then he went to the airport ready to

take off they always made sure safety first. When it was ready, the manager

counted, “One, two three, get set; go!” and then the plane took off. It flew a

good distance, until it reached the beach. There the man enjoyed his life, but

was not quite astonished a bit.

When he was sick of that place, he decided to change another place to enjoy

his life. And so on he hopped onto the plan. When it took off, the man was

wondering what place are they arriving now? When he opened his eyes, he found

himself in the North Pole. There he rested and enjoyed his life. When it was

time to go and find another place, he decided to go to its opposite; Antarctica.

He was so very, very, very excited.

The plane took off again, and it flew a while until they reached

Antarctica; it was quite a long trip, but when they finally landed on land, the

man as so excited that he switched on his clothes immediately and went to

play.

He was having a very good time; at last he chose his place.

He went to the manager of the airport, and said that he could now rest;

because he had finished his work in finding his place of life.

He was very glad, and when he was ready to build his home, he thought about

the penguins. He had played with them a good time; at last he finished building

his house. He had made friends with the penguins too.

Happy day!
