Letters
Letters are important means of communication.Generally speaking, there are two types of letters, busine letters and personal letters.By \"busine\" we do not mean buying, selling, or exchanging goods with people or companies but important matters we have to discu or deal with.Busine letters may be a recommendation, a job/school application, an inquiry, an answer, an invitation, a complaint, etc.In other words, all letters which are not “personal\" are \"busine\" letters.1.Form A letter has six parts: the heading, the inside addre, the salutation, the body, the complimentary close, and the signature.(1) The heading The heading gives the full addre of the writer and the date of the letter.It is usually written or typed in the upper right-hand corner of the first page.It may be either blocked or indented.It may or may not have end punctuation.If letterhead stationery is used, the date is often centered two or three spaces below the printed matter, though it may be written flush with either margin.The British may put a comma after each line in the heading and end the addre with a period, but the Americans do not: British Ms.Jennifer Stone, 20 Fairview Drive, Eastbourne, 2BU.England.
Take care that the date of your letter is made perfectly clear (See III.Notes)
(2) The inside addre The inside addre, which is often omitted in personal letters, gives the name and full addre of the addreee.It goes above the salutation.As in the heading, the use or nonuse of end punctuation depends on the preference of the writer.BN18
American
Ms.Jennifer Stone 20 Fairview Drive Eastbourne, BN18 2BU England (3) The salutation The salutation is a greeting to the addreee.It is written flush with the left margin two spaces below the inside addre.The British tend to use a comma after the salutation and the Americans a colon, especially in a busine letter.The first name (Christian name) may be used in friendly personal letters.But in the salutation of a busine letter, the surname of the addreee is used, as in the following examples: British: Dear Profeor/Prof.Smith, Dear Mr./Dr.Stein, Dear Ms.Santos, (or Dear Mi Santos, ) Dear Ms.Singh, (or Dear Mrs.Singh, )
American: Dear Profeor/Prof.Smith: Dear Mr./Dr.Stein: Dear Ms.Santos: (or Dear Mi Santos: ) Dear Ms.Singh: (or Dear Mrs.Singh: )
What merits the attention of Chinese students is that they should use Ms.when the marital status of a woman addreee is not known or when she (married or not) prefers the Ms.
In letters to organizations, or to persons whose names you do not know, the following greetings are used:
Dear Sir: (or Dear Madam: ) (or Dear Sir or Madam: if you do not know the sex of your addreee)
To whom it may concern: (only for testimonials and things of that kind)
Dear colleague: (to a person who is of the same profeion as the writer, and usually used when you are sending a circular to many people) (4) The body In the body of the letter, all paragraphs should begin flush with the left margin (the block style) or begin with an equal indention (the indented style), and the letter is usually single-spaced within-the paragraph and doubled-spaced between paragraphs.(5) The complimentary close The closing of a busine letter consists of three parts: complimentary close, signature, and the typed name.In the complimentary close, only the first word is capitalized.The close is followed by a comma.The conventional complimentary closes in busine letters are: \"Yours truly,\" \"Yours Sincerely,\" \"Sincerely yours,\" \"Sincerely,” \"Cordially yours” or \"Yours cordially.”
The close of a personal letter is of a more free choice.\"Affectionately,” “Fondly,\" \" Yours with love, \" “With best wishes, \" \"Love,” \"Yours,” \"As ever, \" etc., can be used apart from \"Yours sincerely, \" \"Yours truly, \" etc.; which one of these you use depends on your exact relationship with the addreee.The closing can be put either on the right-hand side or left-hand side of the page.Some writers even prefer to have it in the middle one or two spaces below the last line of the letter.(6) The signature In a busine letter the handwritten signature is placed between the complimentary close and the typed name of the writer, and writer\'s official capacity is indicated after the typed name.In a personal letter, you may sign your full name, your first name, or even a nickname in accordance with your relationship with the addreee.If you send along with your letter such things as a resume check, a receipt, etc., write Enclosure (s) or EHC .to remind addreee that besides the letter, there is another material in the envelope.If you happen to have something additional to say after you have finished the letter, you may begin with P.S., which stands for \"postscript\", and then write what you wish to add.2.Language The style and tone of letters can be greatly varied.Generally speaking, the style and tone of a personal letter differ from those busine letters—the former is casual, whereas the latter is form However, for either of them, the language should be clear and direct.Busine letters should be polite in lone, exact and concise wording.
387 Paragraphs in busine letters tend to be short.Very often you find the first and last paragraphs are single-sentence paragraphs.The first paragraph may be a single sentence that indicates the subject and purpose of the letter.If neceary, one more sentence may be used to refer to previous correspondence when such correspondence needs to be remembered.When you answer a busine letter, it is advisable to identify it by mentioning its subject and date.Always remember that you begin and end a busine letter with a cour-teous tone.The following are some useful expreions with which to begin or end you letters.(1) Busine letters 1) Invitation * I am writing on behalf of all the members of our Literature Society to ask...* We should be very grateful if you could give a talk on \"The Latest Development in ...\" to our ...Club on Saturday afternoon, June 20th...2) Application for entry to a college * I am writing to ask whether you could send me some information about your college and for the application forms ...* I am writing to you in the hope that I may obtain an opportunity to do graduate study in your university...

Dear Mr.Stratton: I would like to apply for the summer position of proofreader which you advertised in the June 16 iue of Beijing Youth.Currently I am a junior at Beijing Foreign Studies University, where I am working toward a BA degree in English.Last summer I held a similar position with Beijing Review, working as their summer replacement in the editorial department.I enjoyed the seemingly tedious work which I knew would further my profeional goal of becoming an editor.The experience also helped me improve my typing skills, which I understand, is required for the job I am applying for.Mr.Liu Kailu, head of the editorial department thought well of my ability, enthusiasm, and devotion.He said that he would welcome a call from you if you wish to know more about me.His office telephone number is 831-0645.In Beijing Foreign Studies University I have been working hard and doing well in the major courses.I am fluent in both written and spoken English and my reading skills are also satisfactory.Besides, I am learning computer languages such as Basic and Fortune, so I believe I can work for your magazine without much additional training.My English teacher.Profeor Shi Danian has kindly agreed to write a reference for me if it is required.
400 I am available for an interview every afternoon except Wednesday.Please contact me at 842-2277, ext.309 or P.0.Box 235, Beijing Foreign Studies University, 100081.Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely yours, Su Hua Dear Profeor Cooper: I have read the annual prospectus iued by your school and found that it has the best graduate program of cro-cultural studies, which you are currently presiding over.I am greatly interested in the program and hope that I may do my MA work under your instruction.I am 28 years old and am now working in the Chinese People\'s Aociation for Friendship with Foreign Countries, in charge of affairs in the Pacific areas.I love my work, as it brings me into contact with all kinds of people.At the same time, I feel the urgent need to improve myself and update my knowledge so that I can do my work better.I graduated from Beijing Foreign Studies University in 1989, majoring in English and majoring in cro-cultural communications.In college I took such courses as World History, American Society and Culture, Introduction to European Culture, and Cultural Exchanges between the East and the West, which were all conducted in English.So I believe I will have no difficulty in my MA studies.
401
I have broad interests in various fields such as history, literature, music, and photography.I love sports, too; I joined the Literary Society in college and was also on the English Department\'s volleyball team.I have discued my application with three of my former profeors, who have urged me to apply and have kindly written letters of recommendation for me, which I enclose with this letter.I would be very grateful if you could send me the neceary application forms and any information about your scholarships or teaching aistantships.I look forward very much to hearing from you soon.Sincerely yours, Zhao Jingsheng Enclosures

Date Dear Liping, Jim and I want to thank you again for your part of the delicious dinner at the Wang house the other night.Everything was marvelous—obviously; I\'m afraid that I\'ll go back to Boston even rounder than when I arrived! We want to thank you for all sorts of other things too—but I imagine we\'ll see you again—so I\'ll end
for now.
As ever, Elizabeth

LETTERHEAD DATE Dear Liping:
It has been a few months since I last wrote you and sent you a box of books, and as I have not heard anything from you, I thought I would write again to make certain that you did, in fact, receive my letter and the books.I am concerned about the books arriving there and would appreciate your letting me know if you have received them and if they were the kind of books that you could use.
Best regards, George

Dear Liping, Liu Danhong called me about two weeks ago and said he had a meage from you, so I asked him and his wife to have dinner and invited Hugh and Evelyn Levin, whom I thought it might be good for him to know.I was delighted to get the lovely cloth shoes and to hear that your father is recovering from the operation and that things seem hopeful.
