1、英文日期分英式和美式,如下: 1) 8th March,2004 或 8 March,2004（英式） 2) March 8th,2004 或 March 8,2004 （美式）日期写法宜遵从下列规则： 1)年份必须完全写明，不可用“04 代替 2004; 2)月份必须用英文拼出或采用公认的简写，即 January (Jan.),February (Feb.),March(Mar.),April(Apr.),May,June,July,August (Aug.),September (Sept.),October(Oct.),November(Nov.),December(Dec.); 3)日
2、期可用序数词，如：1st,2nd,3rd,4th,.；也可用基数词，如： 1，2，3，4，.。但美式大多采用后者； 4)在年份和月日之间必须用逗号隔开； 5)日期不可全部采用如 7.12.2003 或 7/12/2003 的阿拉伯数字书写，否则会引 起误解。因为英美在这方面的习惯用法不同。按美国人习惯，上述日期为 2003 年 7 月 12 日，而按英国习惯则是 2003 年 12 月 7 日 英语写作 关于英文便条便笺（便条）和短信一、概述便条也是书信的一种形式。它的特点是内容简短，主要有临时性的询问、留言、通知、 要求等。跟正规书信相比，便条的语言比较口头化，比如要通知某事只需这样开头：J
3、ust a line to tell you that .而无须像正规书信那样 This is to inform you that .开头。另外，在便条 中常出现省略现象，例如：“key to back door is under mat.”或者“key to back door under mat .”(后门钥匙在垫子下面)代之以“The key to the back door is under the mat.” 。结束时也无需结尾礼词，只需写上写便条者姓名。如果是关系比较近的人，则只需写 上姓或名。便条的日期通常写在右上角。一般只写上星期几或者星期几上午或下午，也可写上午、 下午的具
4、体时刻。日常应用中，写上几月几日的也很普遍。但一般不写年份，因为便条的 内容多半是当日或近日内要办的事情。写便条时，不得事先准备，因此无固定格式，大多 用手写。二、注意事项1.词句简洁，尽量避免应酬语和各种敬词2.切忌内容空洞、言不达意。三、分类举例1）请假（Asking for Leave）例 1Directions: You are about to write a Business Leave Note of about 100 words.

7、 back to the campus. Wish for your allowance.Yours respectfully*本文是一封请假条，一般我们要向上级或老师请假，通常用的是 ask for leave 这个短 语，请三天假可写作：ask for three days leave;因病请假则是 ask for sick leave. leave 在这 里是名词用法，文中用的短语是 apply for 意为“申请” ，含有更加郑重的意味，常用于下 级对上级或晚辈对长辈的书面语中， “Only child”意为“独生子女”相应的， “独生女”译 作“only daughter”而“独生子
8、”译作“only son”. As concern as.后面跟名词性结构，意为 “涉及到，至于”与 Concerning 同意，两者可以互换。2)约请(Invitation)例Directions: You have a ticket to the Russian National Ballet Troupe, which is visiting and you want to give it to your friend Alice.

11、rom coming）此文的 wait for 也可以用 expect 代替。3)道歉（Apology）人非圣贤，孰能无过。在社会交往中，人们常常会出现一些疏忽、过失等。如果发生 此类事情，就会给对方带来麻烦和不便。为了避免误解，不影响感情，在这种情况下，应 写信给对方予以解释，以请求谅解。此类信要写得及时，态度要诚恳，用词需谦逊。一般在信一开始就向对方表示歉意或 内疚，然后说明原因并提出补救的办法。例 1Directions: You have missed a date of your friend, now you have to write a letter for appologiz
