英文请假条格式

请假条(written request for leave)是英语学习者必须掌握的常用应用文之一，它包括请病假(note for sick leave)和请事假(leave of absence)。请假条是用于向老师或上级领导等因身体状况不好或因某事请求准假的场合。

英文请假条写作需注意三点：

1.英文中请假条的写法和汉语请假条相同， 它一般由四部分组成，即时间、称呼、正文和签名。

2.一般而言，可认定请假条是一种简单的书信文体。请假条一般写在纸上，不用信封。其书写格式与书信有很多相似之处，是书信的大大简化。

3.请假条的特点是要求开门见山、内容简短、用词通俗易懂。

【范文例析】

假如你是王立。昨天你和同学们去农场帮助农民们摘苹果，不幸(unluckily)从梯子上摔下来伤了腿，但伤得不重。医生让你在家里好好休息。因此，你向高老师请假两天(ask for leave for two days)。(2002新疆乌鲁木齐中考题)

【参考范文】

Sep.28

Dear Miss Gao,

Im sorry I cant go to school today. I helped the farmers pick apples with my classmates on the farm yesterday. Unluckily, I fell off the ladder and hurt my leg, but I wasnt badly hurt. The doctor asked me to stay in bed and have a good rest. So I ask for leave for two days. Wang Li

【点评】这是一份采用书信格式写的请假条。日期是September 28, 日期写在正文的右上角。由于请假条的内容大多是当天、近几日因病或因事请假，所以不必写上年份；称呼是Dear Miss Gao，称呼写在左上角。请假条因是向上级请示，一般以Dear...,或My dear...,开头。有时可在Dear之后，用上Mr.或Miss等的称呼加上姓氏。不过，有一点仍要提醒大家，各种称呼后面一般都用逗号。正文谈了一件事：I fell off the ladder and hurt my leg, but I wasnt badly hurt. I cant come to school. I ask for leave for two days. 简洁明了，用词口语化。写请假条只要把请假的理由和请假时间说清楚即可。有的请假条为了说明其请假事由是真实的，在正文之后另起一行，写上I enclose a doctors certificate.(我附上了医生证明。)；签名为Wang Li。签名(署名)写在右下角，签名(署名)上面一行可以写上Yours, Your student等字样，有时由于写条的人和收条的人彼此一般很熟悉，所以在称呼和签名上比较随便和简单。特别是在签名部分，有时可简单到只写个姓或只写个名就可以了。

Dear Dad,

Do you remember Christmas Eve a year ago? That night, I hung a red sock at

the bedside, in front of you, I closed my eyes and made a wish. When I open my

eyes, my first word is, "Dad, will Santa come?" You say, "It will come!" "Will

he always be with me?" I asked. You do not answer, but I see in your pupils a

little worry.

The next day, I found what I wanted in the red socks. When I held the socks

came to your front, your haggard face bloomed a happy smile, and I in your eyes

caught a trace of sadness.

In a twinkling of an eye, the world as if a lot of old, this years

December 24, Xi son to our home rehearsal program, you sent him away, I still

put the red socks -- or last years socks, hanging in my bedside. I asked you

the same question, "Dad, will Santa come?" "Yes," you replied. "Will he grow up

with me?" I asked. You still did not answer, I in your old face swept a trace of

sadness.

In fact, I already knew that there is no Such thing as Santa Claus. Last

year, the Santa Claus who gave me presents was you. Nevertheless, with a faint

hope, I asked you the same question I had asked you a year before, but I still

got your silent answer, and I understood everything.

This years Christmas Eve, "Santa Claus" or gave me a gift, But I happily

ran to you there, I suddenly heard you ask: "Son, do you like Santa Claus? I

dont know how to answer. I know its you, but can you give me that wish I had a

year ago? I inadvertently found a white hair on your head, my heart like knocked

over a bottle of taste, I have been in the quilt babble until eleven o

clock.

Dad, youre still the Santa I was a year ago, but you cant live up to my

wishes like the legend says Santa Claus can. I finally understand the sadness in

your eyes, and understand the suffering in your heart. Dad, youre an

"incompetent" Santa. I thought you were an ordinary person in the world. But

then I suddenly realized that all the fathers in the world are unqualified Santa

Claus and you are the greatest person in the world!

Dad, I love you!

We have been trying to do well, though we will encounter many difficulties on the way, but we have been sticking to the virtues of human nature. The past, let it pass, the history is still beautiful. In the future, I will not give up my dream, no matter how deep the "difficult Valley" is on the road of life. Looking forward to the future, I am confident, I will work hard for my dream!

Hazy Weather

Recently，hazy weather has become commonin China. People wear masks to avoid

poisonous air. Emissionproduced from factories and cars is the main source. The

smog surely hasnegative effects on peoples health especially that of

thechildren and the elderly .But how to deal with it?

First， the government should perfect laws to punish those factories

thatignore the protection. And businessmen must pay more attention to

theenvironment instead of money. Second， green commuting and alow-carbon life

are supposed to be called for. Third，we should develop green and energy-saving

energy to lower theemission of haze.

If we work together，our environmentwill get better and better and haze

weather will disappear completely.

尊敬的各位老师，亲爱的同学们：

早上好!

今天我国旗下讲话的题目是《热爱劳动，从身边的小事做起》。

五月披着节日的盛装来了，灿烂的阳光，拂面的微风，我们迎来了又一个五一劳动节。五月带着殷勤的期望来了，火热的劳动节，蓬勃的青年节，向我们少年提出新的展望和要求。五月搭起缤纷的舞台迎接我们来了，嘹亮的歌声，康乃馨的花海的点缀，等候我们献上对未来、对亲人的礼物。五月的日历就像一幅幅铺展的画卷，等待我们去描绘出最绚烂的色彩。

同学们，“五一”这个特殊的日子，是全世界劳动人民的节日。劳动创造了世界，创造了人类，创造了我们今天的幸福生活。是劳动，建成了今天的万丈高楼;是劳动，筑就了现代化的高速公路;是劳动，让偌大的地球变成了一个小小的村落;是劳动，使浩翰的荒原变成了亩亩良田。劳动是神奇的，劳动是伟大的。劳动者用勤劳的双手和智慧，编织了这个五彩班斓的世界，创造了人类的文明。让我们在这个特别的日子里，向全世界的劳动者致敬!同时，从我做起，从身边的小事做起，去热爱劳动吧，劳动者既光荣又伟大!

My father is a handsome man .

He has short black hair and big eyes.hes very smart.My dad is very fun.He likes playing basketball.My father also likes listening to music and watching TV. he works very hard.My father thinks healthy food is good for our health.

So we eat apples every day. We dont eat French fries. We often eat vegetables,fruits and fish.he loves me.

六月的第三个星期天就要到来了，同学们那一天是什么节日呢？对！那一天就是父亲节啊！同学们你们知道父亲节的由来吗？原来它源于美国，在州士波肯市有一个杜德夫人，当她参加完教会举办的母亲节主日崇拜之后，杜德夫人的心里有了很深的感触，她心里想着：为什么这个世界没有一个纪念父亲的节日呢？

年那年，正好是斯马先生辞世之年，当杜德夫人参加完教会的母亲节感恩礼拜后，她特别地想念父亲；直到那时，杜德夫人才明白，她的父亲在养育儿女过程中所付出的爱心与努力，并不亚于任何一个母亲的辛苦。

杜德夫人将她的感受告诉教会的瑞马士牧师，她希望能有一个特别的日子，向伟大的斯马特先生致敬，并能以此纪念全天下伟大的父亲。

瑞马士牧师听了斯马特先生的故事后，深深地为斯马特先生的精神与爱心所感动，他赞许且支持杜德夫人想推动「父亲节」的努力。于是杜德夫人在年春天开始推动成立父亲节的运动，不久得到各教会组织的支持；她随即写信向市长与州政府表达自己的想法与提议，在杜德夫人的奔走努力下，士波肯市市长与华盛顿州州长公开表示赞成，于是美国华盛顿州便在年月日举行了全世界的第一次父亲节聚会。

年，美国总统科立芝支持父亲节成为全美国的节日；年，美国总统詹森宣布当年月第个星期日，也就是斯马特先生的生日月份为美国父亲节；年，美国总统尼克森签署正式文件，将每年的六月第三个主日，订为全美国的父亲节，并成为美国永久性的国定纪念日。

虽然今日一般人对于父亲节的庆祝活动，不像对母亲节一般的重视与热闹，但是上帝在圣经中教导我们对于父母的关爱却是一致的，当母亲含辛茹苦地照顾我们时，父亲也在努力地扮演着上帝所赋予他的温柔角色；或许当我们努力思考着该为父亲买什么样的礼物过父亲节之时，不妨反省一下，我们是否爱我们的父亲，像他曾为我们无私地付出一生呢？

接下来让我们把一首诗送给天下的父亲：

是谁，用虬劲的臂膀，为我们撑起一片灿烂的天空？

是谁，用勤劳的双手，为我们构建一个幸福的家园？

是您，父亲，一个平凡而又伟大的名字！

父亲一座山，胸怀宽广，容纳百川

父亲一把伞，为我们遮风挡雨，使我们远离灾难

父亲一艘船，载着我们，乘风破浪，驶向爱的港湾！

在女儿的眼里，父亲您更像是一棵树

春天能倚着幻想您的爱像滴滴甘露，滋润着我的心房；

夏天能靠着乘凉您的爱像阵阵凉风，轻轻地拂过身旁；

秋天教我变得成熟，您的爱是累累硕果让我看到成功的希望

冬天教我变得坚强，您的爱是缕缕阳光赋予我自信和力量！

春夏秋冬，日月轮转

时光的痕迹，悄悄爬上您的脸庞

风雨的磨砺，使您饱经沧桑

忘不了，您谆谆教导的情景

忘不了，您骑车载送女儿上学的背影

忘不了，女儿迟归时您目光中的忧愁

忘不了，女儿生病时您脸庞上的担心

忘不了的一幕幕，忘不了的父女情……

如果生命可以轮回，来生我还做您的女儿！

此时此刻我只想在您耳边说一句：爸爸，我爱您！

这是一个女儿的心声，祝愿天下的父亲母亲身体健康！

[八荣八耻大家谈教育活动英文作文

My father, Winston Churchill, began his love affair with painting in his 40s, amid disastrous circumstances. As First Lord of the Admiralty in 1915, he was deeply involved in a campaign in the Dardanelles that could have shortened the course of a bloody world war. But when the mission failed, with great loss of life, Churchill paid the price, both publicly and privately. He was removed from the admiralty and effectively sidelined.

Overwhelmed by the catastrophe — “I thought he would die of grief,” said his wife, Clementine —he retired with his family to Hoe Farm, a country retreat in Surrey. There, as Churchill later recalled, “The muse of painting came to my rescue!”

Wandering in the garden one day, he chanced upon his sister-in-law sketching with watercolors. He watched her for a few minutes, then borrowed her brush and tried his hand. The muse had cast her spell!

Churchill soon decided to experiment with oils. Delighted with this distraction from his dark broodings, Clementine rushed off to buy whatever paints she could find.

For Churchill, however, the next step seemed difficult as he contemplated with unaccustomed nervousness the blameless whiteness of a new canvas. He started with the sky and later described how “very gingerly I mixed a little blue paint on the palette, and then with infinite precaution made a mark about as big as a bean upon the affronted snow-white shield. At that moment the sound of a motor car was heard in the drive. From this chariot stepped the gifted wife of Sir John Lavery .”

“ ‘Painting!’ she declared. ‘But what are you hesitating about? Let me have the brush — the big one.’ Splash into the turpentine, wallop into the blue and the white, frantic flourish on the palette, and then several fierce strokes and slashes of blue on the absolutely cowering canvas.”

At that time, John Lavery— a Churchill neighbor and celebrated painter— was tutoring Churchill in his art. Later, Lavery said of his unusual pupil: “Had he chosen painting instead of statesmanship, I believe he would have been a great master with the brush.”

In painting, Churchill had discovered a companion with whom he was to walk for the greater part of the years that remained to him. After the war, painting would offer deep solace when, in 1921, the death of the mother was followed two months later by the loss of his and Clementine’s beloved three-year-old daughter, Marigold. Battered by grief, Winston took refuge at the home of friends in Scotland, finding comfort in his painting. He wrote to Clementine: “I went out and painted a beautiful river in the afternoon light with crimson and golden hills in the background. Alas I keep feeling the hurt of the Duckadilly (Marigold’s pet name).”

Historians have called the decade after 1929, when the Conservative government fell and Winston was out of office, his wilderness years. Politically he may have been wandering in barren places, a lonely fighter trying to awaken Britain to the menace of Hitler, but artistically that wilderness bore abundant fruit. During these years he often painted in the South of France. Of the 500-odd canvases extant, roughly 250 date from 1930 to 1939.

Painting remained a joy to Churchill to the end of his life. “Happy are the painters,” he had written in his book Painting as a Pastime, “ for they shall not be lonely. Light and color, peace and hope, will keep them company to the end of the day.” And so it was for my father.

我的父亲，温斯顿·丘吉尔，在他四十多岁时开始迷恋上绘画，当时环境异常恶劣。那是在1915年，任海军大臣的他，积极投身于在达达尼尔海峡的一场战役中，这场战役本可以缩短那段血雨腥风的世界大战。但由于遭受失败，伤亡惨重，丘吉尔于公于私都付出了代价。他被从海军部调离且实则坐起了冷板凳。

在灾难的折磨下——他的妻子克莱门廷说：“我想他会痛苦而死，”——他携家带口来到萨利郡的一处乡间静居霍·华姆。在那儿，丘吉尔后来回忆道，“是绘画中的冥思拯救了我！”

一天他在花园散步时，偶然看到他的弟媳在用水彩作画。他观察了几分钟，然后向她借了画笔并一试身手。他的专注仿佛给他施了魔法！

丘吉尔很快就决定试试去画油画。看到他从阴暗的忧郁思中解脱出来，克莱门廷非常开心，她赶忙去买所有能买到的颜料。

然而，迈出下一步似乎有些困难，因为丘吉尔看到一块新画布的洁白无暇时感到无所适从和为难。他先从天空画起，后来他描述如何“非常谨慎地在调色板上加入一点儿蓝色调，然后以万分的小心，在这块被蓄意冒犯的雪白的防护板上点上豌豆大的一笔。这时，传来一阵驾驶机动车的马达声。约翰·拉威利先生才华出众的太太从这辆车中姗然而下。

“‘在画画呀！’她高声说着。‘可你还在犹豫什么呢？给我那支笔——那支头号的。’只见松油飞溅，她在蓝白颜料间挥毫泼墨，在调色板上龙飞凤舞，接着在吓得发皱的油画布上用力东戳西捣几下蓝色。”

那时，约翰·拉威利——丘吉尔的邻居，也是一位有名的画家—正教丘吉尔学画。后来提及他的这位特殊的学生，拉威利说：“倘若他选择绘画而不是从政，我相信他会是位绘画大师的。”

在绘画中，丘吉尔找到了能陪他度过余生大部分时光的知已。战后，在1921年，母亲刚去世两个月，他和克莱门廷就失去了他们深爱着的三岁女儿玛丽戈尔德，这时作画给了他一些安慰。在痛苦的打击下，温斯顿来到苏格兰朋友们的家中以求得安慰，用绘画来解脱自己。他在给克莱门廷的信中说：“我出外画了一条夕阳下美丽的溪流，背后映衬着晚霞的群山。唉，达克迪莉（玛丽戈尔德的昵称）使我的苦痛总是挥之不去。

史学家把1929年后的十年，也就是保守党政府垮台而温斯顿下台的时间，称为他的荒凉岁月。政治上，他一直在举步维艰的处境中徘徊，是一个孤独的勇士在努力唤起受到希特勒威胁的国人，但在艺术上他在那荒凉岁月却硕果累累。这些年他经常在法国南部作画。在现存的500多张油画中，大约250张是1930至1939年间的作品。

绘画给丘吉尔带来了乐趣直到他的人生尽头。在他所著的《画中的消遣》里说：“画家其乐融融，因为他们不会孤独。光与色，和平与希望，会始终伴随他们。”我父亲就是这样一个人。

老师们，同学们，大家好，我们是来自初一九班的张影和李雨亭，今天我演讲的题目是“冬季长跑好处多”。

俗话说“冬训吃一年”，这是体育业内人非常重视的训练阶段。在民间利用寒冷的冬天进行长跑活动更是人们喜闻乐见的体育项目。为了让同学们更多的掌握长跑的知识，更好的参加长跑运动，我们在此向同学们介绍冬季长跑的有关知识。

通过长跑可以调节神经中枢的兴奋与抑制合理的交替转换，避免神经思维中枢紧张过度，消除大脑的疲劳，提高学习效益，提高记忆力；在低温下长跑可以刺激、激活肌体的保护性反应，调节大脑体温中枢的功能；长跑还可以促进血液循环，加速脑部的血量，供给大脑更多的氧和营养物质，使大脑清醒，思维能力敏捷，神经系统功能的改善，可以提高和完善对各器官、系统的控制和调节能力。

长跑运动可以增强心脏肌肉收缩的力量，提高血液中红血球携带氧的能力，可以使血管粗壮有弹性，可以激活淋巴细胞提高人体的免疫功能。在长跑运动时由于需求氧的量成倍增多，呼吸次数及深度也随之增加，经常进行长跑就能有效的提高呼吸肌力量，加大肺泡的通气量，从而提高了肺活量。

人体的运动系统是由骨骼、关节、肌肉组成，经常参加长跑运动，提高关节的灵活性；有效的提高肌肉的力量和耐力。

冬季长跑可以重新塑造完美体形、体态长跑属于有氧代谢运动，在运动中需要大量的氧和营养物质来供给人体运动的需要，在运动中多余的脂肪被消耗掉就能使得原本臃肿肥胖的体形得到改善，达到重新塑造体形的效果。

在冬季长跑中由于受到季节温度和环境的影响会遇到很多的困难，如天气寒冷，空气干燥都是对人在跑步时形成的自然困难因素，在这样的环境中锻炼一方面在锻炼体质，另一方面也是对人的意志品质的锻炼。

冬季长跑是一项锻炼身体的好运动，我们只有采用科学的方法进行锻炼，才能得到良好的锻炼效果。希望广大同学积极行动起来，投身到冬季长跑活动中来。

我的演讲到此结束，谢谢大家！
