英语作文的一封信(汇总20篇)

Dear Sarah,

I am terribly sorry to tell you that I am unable to attend your birthday

part next Thursday evening. That is owing to the fact that my younger brother

suddenly fell ill and was taken to a hospital this morning. I have to go there

immediately and take care of him. As told by the doctor in charge, it will take

around five days for him to recover and I have asked my boss for a leave.

I really regret that I cannot go to celebrate your birthday personally and

would miss the perfect chance of enjoying myself with all our old friends. I

have chosen a small gift for you and will send it to you tomorrow to show my

best wishes. Besides, please give my regards to our friends when you meet them

at the party.

Cordially,

Li Ming

Dear Mike,

This Saturday is my birthday and my parents will hold a simple celebrating

party for me. I am glad to invite you to come to the party. Blair, Emma and Roan

will also be invited. I am sure we will have a good time. We will have dinner at

18:30 so that you are wished to come at 18:15. My mother is a good cook and you

will enjoy the dishes. After the dinner, we will play some small games and then

eat the cake. My parents and I sincerely expect you to come and hope to see you

then.

True yours,

Daniel

last term we had a sports meeting . It has last for a day. I think it’s

funny, just like a game.

First is running. And the other part is jumping. The meeting is very

exciting. I watched the running match, but I didn’t watch the jumping match.

What a pity!

Ha-ha, I ran with my classmate then. Because I want to cheer them on. But

always they ran faster than me long. So I had to try my best to catch them up.

It’s a hard work, I think.

The match is very fierce. The players are powerful. Who is the best? We

guess. All of us hope the winner is our class. Finally, the best will get

congratulations. And others also will get comfort and support.

Oh, I am forget something. Before the match beginning, it is warmth and

fragrance doubled and redoubled, all of the pupil and teacher will give ther

best wishes to the players in their class and also the other classes. They are

kind people. And the match is the best way to make people happier, stronger, and

also make them become more friendly.

DearJeff,

[给Jeff的一封信英语作文

My classmate Li Hong is a very nice girl. The first day I met her, she

helped me to know other students name. Thanks to her, I get along with my

classmates soon. I like to ask her to come to my house and my mother likes her,

too. My mother cooks delicious food for her. Li Hong is a trustful friend.

Im a tall and lively boy. I like playing basketball very much because its

interesting. I like NBA, too. There are many famous stars in it. Such as Alan,

Iveson, Tim, Donken, Jordan, Kobe, ONeal and so on. Yao Ming is in the NBA,

too. Hes Chinese. He plays basketball well. Hes a center forward. Hes our

pride. All the ball stars can jump, shoot and pour in the basket. So each game

of the NBA is wonderful. Sometimes the players can perform miracles, I

think.

This years champion is Spur Team. It’s one of the strongest

contenders.

I like NBA. I love basketball.

Our art teacher is not too young and not too old .He has black hair two big

and black eyes， a small nose and a big mouth .Look， he is wearing a blue and

white jacket ，a blue hat ，brown pants and a pair of old shoes. He is very funny.

He is a good art teacher. We all like him.

I live in an ordinary family. Though my parents are not rich enough to buy

what I want, they give me the best thing. That is love. I have a rich friend.

Her name is Lucy. She always complains that her parents are too busy and don’t

have much time to play with her. So I am so thankful for the things I have. I

feel the real happiness.

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.

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.

College life is much different ...

敬爱的夏老师：

您好!时光如白驹过隙，转眼间两年过去了，您作为班主任陪伴我们的点点滴滴在这毕业之际又浮现在我的眼前。

回想这两年来，您为我们洒下多少汗水，花了多少心血，您会为我们着想，会关心每一位学生。您在炎炎夏日的灯下，为我们批改作业的背影是那样美丽。

我记得，在疫情过后，我们六年级下册正式开学的时候，您怀孕了。美术老师告诉我们，您本来可以辞去班主任这个职务，可以安心做英语老师，也能安心养胎，也不会再那么辛苦的带我们这一届毕业生了。可是您没有，您依旧挺着肚子带我们去操场做操，去食堂吃饭，去校门口带我们放学，马上就要毕业了，但我真的很铭记这些时刻。

在这两年里，您不像是一位班主任老师，更像是我们成长路上的一位知心好友，为我们排忧解难，倾听我们的心声;更像是我们的母亲，会在我们生病难受时关心我们，给予我们温暖。您会用心的为我们操办六一的美食节，也会自己掏腰包为我们发奖励。

虽然要毕业了，我们马上就要各奔东西，去不同的学校，我还是会记得，您对我们的各种好，各种爱!

祝您

家庭幸福，永远永远都没有烦恼!

爱您的学生

Dear teachers, winter vacation is a holiday full of happiness; Spring

Festival is an auspicious and happy festival. In order to let you have a

civilized and full Festival, the Central School suggests to you:

1. Give yourself more reminders

We should always pay attention to the safety of fire, electricity and gas

during the holidays. When visiting relatives and friends, we must pay attention

to guard against theft, close the doors and windows, lock the door, and do not

drive after drinking to ensure the safety of yourself and your family. We should

consciously avoid gambling, drinking, feudal superstitious activities and

indulging in the Internet. We should do more physical exercise every day and

take part in healthy and beneficial cultural and recreational activities. Pay

attention to scientific diet, dont overeat and take good care of your body.

2. Give more time to study

Winter vacation has a relatively concentrated, discretionary time, it is

recommended that we should arrange a little time for self charging. On the one

hand, we should sum up the experience and lessons in the work of this semester

and formulate the work plan for the next semester. On the other hand, we can

calm down and seriously familiarize ourselves with the curriculum standards of

teaching subjects. We should read the textbooks of next semester in advance,

read one or two good books, and study some educational and teaching theories. We

should constantly enrich, enrich and improve ourselves, let our thinking and

practice go hand in hand, so that we can better adapt to the class It is

necessary for the reform of classroom teaching.

3. Give your family more care

Enjoy the family, our life journey is not lonely, spread the family, can

win the respect of others. During the Spring Festival, lets be filial to our

elders, take care of our younger ones, and keep in touch with our friends. In

particular, we should take care of our bodies, experience the beauty of human

nature and feel a better life in dedication and care.

Finally, once again, I wish you all a safe, happy, peaceful and meaningful

festival. I wish all the staff a happy Spring Festival, all the best of luck,

good health and happiness for the whole family!

Pinggudian Town Central School

My father is a classic Chinese father. He doesnt talk much, but I know he

loves me so much. One time, I don’t feel liking eating anything because of the

hot weather, my father goes out of the house and carry a lot of my favorite

snacks. I feel so moved. His love is so strong, I love my father.

Today is Saturday. I was so happy that my grandparents would come to visit

us, because they haven’t seen us for a long time, so they carried some local

food. I was so excited to eat my grandma’s food. She always knew my favorite

food. We talked happily and I enjoyed the happy moment.

In ten years, I want to be a writer. Ill meet plenty of interested people

. Im going to work by subway every. Its good for earth. I think Ill live in

Beijing, because I will work there. I maybe become a famous people . Maybe I

will be able to take my family to move to Beijing. Ill keep a cute dog in my

big apartment. I think I will have more fans. That is my dream . On the

weekend,I will spend most time with my family,but I think I often have lunch

with my family in the future. We never know what will happen in the future. But

I think "future" is a beautiful word.

My Darling McGeorge

You said that things seemed clearer when they were written down. Well, here

with a very boring letter in which I will try to put everything down so that you

may read and re-read it at a horror at your folly in getting involved with

me.

Deep breath. To begin with ,I love you. With a depth and passion and I have

felt for no one else in this life. And if it is astonishes you, it astonished me

as well. Not, I hasten to say, because you are not worth loving. Far from it.

Its just that, first of all,I swore I would not get involved with another

woman. Secondly, I have never had such a feeling before and it is almost

frightening. Thirdly, I would never have thought it possible that another human

being could occupy my waking and sleeping thoughts to the exclusion of almost

everything else. Fourthly, I never thought that even if one was in love one

could get so completely besotted with another person so that a minute away from

them felt like a thousand years. Fifthly, I never hoped,aspired, dreamed that

one can find everything one wanted in one person.

I was not such an idiot as to believe this was possible. Yet in you I have

found everything I want: youre beautiful, gay, giving, gentle, idiotically and

deliciously feminine, sexy, wonderfully intelligent and wonderfully silly as

well. I want nothing else in this life than to be with you, to listen and watch

you, your beautiful voice, your beauty, to argue with you, to laugh with you, to

show you things, to share things with you, to explore your magnificent mind, to

explore your wonderful body, to help you, protect you, serve you ,and...bash you

on the head when I think you are wrong...

Not to put too fine a point on it, I consider that I am the only man

outside mythology to have found crock of gold at the rainbows end. But, having

said all that, let us consider things in details. Dont let this become public,

but, well...I have one or two faults. Minor ones,I hasten to say. For example I

am inclined to be overbearing. I do it for the best possible motives, all

tyrants say that, but I do tend, without thinking, to treat people underfoot.

You must tell me when Im doing it to you, my sweet, because it can be a very

bad thing in a marriage.

Right, the second blemish. This actually is not so much a blemish of

character as a blemish of circumstance. Darling, I want you to be you on your

own right, and I will do everything I can to help you in this. But you must take

into consideration that I am also me in my own right. And that I have a head

start on you. What Im trying to say is that you must not feel offended if you

are sometimes treated simply as my wife. Always remember that what you lose on

the swings you gain on the roundabouts. But i am an established ‘creature’ in

the world, and so on occasions you will have to live in my shadow. Nothing gives

me less pressure than this. But it is a fact of life that has to be faced.

Third, a very important and nasty, blemish. Jealousy. I dont think you

know what jealousy is, thank god, in the real sense of the word. I know that you

have felt jealousy over Lincolns wife and child, but this is what I call normal

jealousy, and this to my regret, is not what Ive got. What I have got is a

black monster and any goodness that I have in my make-up. It is really a Jekyll

and Hyde situation... my Hyde is stronger than my good sense and defeats me,

hard though I try. As I told you, I have always known that this lurks within me,

but I could control it, and my monster slumbered and nothing happened to awake

it. Then I met you and I felt my monster stir and become half-awake when you

told me of Lincoln and others you have known, would you like to end with your

letter my monster came out of its lair, black, irrational, bigoted, stupid,

evil, malevolent. You never know how terribly corrosive jealousy is; It is a

physical pain as though you have swallowed acid or red hot coals. It is the most

terrible of feelings. But you cant help it at least I cant and god knows Ive

tried. I dont want any ex-boyfriends sitting in church when I marry you. On our

wedding day I want nothing but happiness both for you and me, but I know I wont

be happy if there is a church full of your ex-conquests. When I marry you I will

have no past, only a future. I dont want to drag my past into our future and I

dont want you to do it, either. Remember I am jealous of you because I love

you. You are never jealous of something you dont care about.

Okay enough about jealousy. Now let me tell you something. I have seen a

thousand sunsets and sunrises, in a thousand sunsets and sunrises on land where

it floods forest mountains with honey-coloured light, at sea where it rises and

sets like a blood orange in a multi-coloured nest of cloud, slipping in and out

of the vast ocean. I have seen thousand moons. Harvest moon is like gold coins,

winter moons as white as ice chips, new moons like baby swans feathers. I have

seen seas as smooth as if painted, coloured like shot silk or blues as a

kingfisher or transparent as glass or black and crumpled with foam, moving

ponderously and murderously. I have felt winds straight from the south pole,

bleak and wailing like a lost child; Winds as tender and warm as a lovers

breath; Winds that carried the astringent smell of salt and the death of

seaweeds; Winds during the moist rich smell of a forest floor, the smell of a

million flowers. Fierce winds that churned and moved the sea like yeast, or

winds that made the waters lap at the shore like a kitten. Ive known silence:

the cold, earthy silence at the bottom of a newly dug well; The implacable stony

silence of a deep cave; The hot, drugged midday silence when everything is

everything is hypnotized and still moved into silence by the eye of the sun. The

silence when great music ends. Ive heard that summer cicadas cry so that the

sound seems stitched into your bones. Ive heard a tree frogs in an

orchestration as complicated as Bach singing in a forest lit by a million

emerald fireflies. Ive heard the Keas calling over the grey glaciers that

groaned to themselves like old people as they inched. Their way to the sea. Ive

heard the hoarse street vendor cries of the mating Fur seals as they sang to

their sleek golden wives, the crisp staccato admonishment of the rattlesnake,

make the cobweb squeak of the Bat and the belling roar of the red deer knee-deep

in purple heather. Ive heard wolves baying at a winters moon, read howlers

making the forest vibrate with their roaring cries. Ive heard the squeak, purr

and grunt of a hundred multi-coloured reef fishes. I’ve seen hamming birds

flashing like opals round a tree of scarlets blooms, humming like a top. I have

seen flying fish skittering like quicksilver across the blue waves, drawing

silver lines on the surface with their tails. Ive seen Spoonbills flying home

to roost like a scarlet banner crossed the sky. Ive seen Whales, black as tar,

cushioned on a cornflower blue sea,creating a Versailles of fountain with their

breath. I have watched butterflies emerge and sit, trembling, while the sun

irons their wings smooth. I watch tigers, like flames, mating in the long grass.

I have been dive -bombed by an angry Raven, black and glossy as the Devils

hoof. Ive lain in water warm as milk, soft as silk, while around me played a

host of Dolphins. I have met a thousand animals and see a thousand wonderful

things.

All this I did without you. This was my loss. All this I want to do with

you. This will be my gain. All this I would gladly have forgone for the sake of

one minute of your company, for your love, your voice, your eyes, hair, lips,

body, and above all for your sweet, ever surprising mind which is an enchanting

quarry, in which it is my privilege to delve.

Gerald Durrell

Everybody knows that people often wrote stories for fun, but this story

tells how a little boy hates writing stories, but he then learned a valuable

lesson on a dangerous adventure.

Once, there was a boy called Moni, Moni was a very cute little boy, and was

always proud to show off at some time. Moni’s mother loved baking pies, but she

always scolded Moni for eating them without her permission.

One day his mother said that he was old enough to write stories. Moni had

no idea what the word story means, but mother said, “It is to write interesting

tales of children who goes on adventures.” She said to Moni. Moni always thought

that playing was fun, but he also heard her say that writing stories was more

fun. But as he began to first word of his story, he began to feel bored. “This

is no fun!” he cried, “It is even more bored than going to school and learn

lessons!”

Moni did not like writing stories, but his mother waited until he had

finished his first story; then she will let him go outside and play. It all

happened that Moni knew every secret about the house; he could easily find

another way out. And so he ran up to the attic, and started to crawl out between

two logs. Moni got out, and saw a beautiful pine tree; He climbed up, made a

platform, and started to feast upon the fruits.

Moni was having such a great time, that he had no idea that a pond was

nearby; and he had no idea, that there was a crocodile down waiting for him to

come down so that he could feast upon Moni.

Moni was eating the last few fruits, and then he got thirsty; so he looked

down, then he found the crocodile. Moni had no choice but to cry out for help.

“Help!” he cried, “Help!” Moni’s mother heard his cries, and ran out into the

garden. There, she saw the crocodile; and Moni up in the tree. “Hold on, there

Moni!” she cried, “I shall save you!” She ran inside the house, she used a

stick, and killed the crocodile as he was looking up. And then Moni got down

from the tree, and confessed his fault.

When he got back to his room, he began to write stories; he figured that it

as much more fun to write stories, than it is to be free. Of course, he wrote

the adventure he had, and how his mom saved him. And you could probably guess,

that the 《Three Little Pigs》is a story that he wrote. And he was soon known as

the great writer, “Moni Frank”.

This morning, I and father go buying food, after reaching market, we saw

hollow dish, cabbage, spend dish, chinese cabbage, tomato patch, aubergine,

onion, turnip, tomato, pumpkin, chili, east melon, balsam pear, cucumber, towel

gourd, kidney bean...

Dear Mr. Cao

Hello!

First of all, I wish you all the best in the new year. After such a long

holiday, where are you going to play? We went out on a big cruise ship. The

cruise ship is like a small city with everything! Im very excited! I brought a

book "understanding Chinese traditional festivals" on my journey. This book

makes me really understand the meaning of the Spring Festival. Let me also tell

you about it to Mr. Cao!

This book is full of rich cultural atmosphere. The text interprets the text

with pictures and notes each other. It vividly shows the general situation,

origin, celebration activities and various folk customs of traditional Chinese

festivals such as the Spring Festival, the Lantern Festival and the Dragon Boat

Festival. Let more Chinese people have an in-depth understanding of their own

traditional festivals, and also open a window to the folk customs for foreign

friends who want to understand the ancient Chinese culture.

It introduces why the Spring Festival is called "Chinese New Year"? Why do

you eat Zongzi on the Dragon Boat Festival? How is "qiqiqiaoqiao" going on?

In this book, the author uses pictures and stories to uncover the mystery

for readers. This is not only a pleasant reading, but also a kind trip back to

folk customs.

I see that the Spring Festival, Tomb Sweeping Day, Dragon Boat Festival,

Mid Autumn Festival and other traditional festivals add endless fun to peoples

lives. But how much do you know about the stories behind these festivals? Dont

worry. Now open this book and follow the two lovely children in the book to

start this rare journey of looking back on traditional folk festivals. This book

introduces what are the traditional Chinese festivals? What is the history? And

so on. There are pictures at the bottom of each paragraph. There will be a few

children talking about other customs below. They look vivid and interesting, but

they are good-looking. Let me tell you something about it. There are many

introductions about the Spring Festival in the book, such as: the Spring

Festival in the traditional sense refers to the twelfth lunar month On the

eighth day of the eighth day of the lunar month or the third day of the twelfth

lunar month, the sacrificial stoves lasted until the fifteenth day of the first

month, with new years Eve and the first day of the first month as the climax.

The first day of the first month is the first day of the year, also known as

lunar new year. The word Spring Festival has different special meanings in

different historical periods. It is said that in ancient times, there was a

monster called Nian. It changed from eating insects to eating big living people.

Therefore, people in the village were very afraid of it. Every winter, when food

was scarce in the mountains, Nian would intrude into the village and hunt for

people and livestock. People were always in panic. Later, people all know that

Nian is most afraid of red, fire and noise, so the family will paste couplets on

the door, so Nian dare not come! Ha ha, isnt it very attractive to you!

This book is really recommended. I cant get tired of reading every page.

Its so interesting. I know so much about customs and culture, and its even

more fascinating because there are illustrations and texts. Youll love it, Miss

Cao!

OK, thats it!

Best wishes

Good health and family happiness
