Format and model essay of the sixth campus letter competition in Xiangfan. What I wrote was to mail a model essay to the teacher's parents.

Letters and correspondence are tools for people who are far apart and can't meet for the time being to exchange feelings and thoughts with each other. Letters have a long history and people all over the world use them. Letters play an important role in the history of human communication. Today, mobile phones, telephones and computers are simple and fast communication tools all over the world, and some people are still willing to exchange information by mail.

The main part of the letter

Letters have a long history and their formats have changed several times. Today, according to the usual custom, the format of a letter mainly includes five parts: title, body, ending, signature and date.

1. Address

Also known as the "initial", it is the address of the recipient. The address should be written in the top box of the first line of stationery, followed by ":",and no more after the colon. Address and signature should correspond, and the relationship between yourself and the recipient should be clear. (See Section 4 "Social Address" for details. The address can be given by name, address, modifier or directly. Here are a few details: (1) Letter to elders. If it is a close relative, only write the title, not the name, such as "father", "mother", "brother" and "sister-in-law"; If they are relatives, write the title of the relationship, such as "menstruation" and "menstruation". For elders who are not close relatives, first names or surnames can be added before addressing, such as "Aunt Zhao" and "Uncle Huang". (2) Letters to peers. Couples or relationships can directly use each other's names and nicknames with modifiers or directly use modifiers, such as "Li", "Hua Min" and "Dear". Letters from classmates, fellow villagers, colleagues and friends can be written directly with names and nicknames, or "classmates" and "comrades", such as Sheng Rui, Lao Ji, Xiao Zou and San Mao. (3) a letter to the younger generation. Generally write names directly, such as "Le Yi", "Junping" and "Amin". You can also add a generational title after the name, such as "Li Hua's niece"; You can also use titles directly, such as "granddaughter" and "son". (4) Letters to teachers usually only write their own gender or name, plus the word "teacher", such as "teacher Duan", "teacher Zhou" and "teacher Hong Hai". Teachers who are very familiar with them can also be simply called "teachers" and "masters". It is unnatural and disrespectful to directly address "Mr. Sun Songping" and "Mr. Wang Dafu" in the letter, instead of directly addressing their first names and surnames. For teachers with expertise and high respect, the word "Lao" is often added after the surname to show respect, such as "Lao Dai" and "Zhou Lao", and the word "Mr" can also be added after the name. For the sake of seriousness, there are also people who are commensurate with their positions, such as "Professor Dong", "Dr. Chen" and "Child Engineer". (5) Letters to a unit or several people can be written as "comrades", "gentlemen" and "XX comrades" if they are not named. The letter to the organization can directly write the name of the organization. Such as "XX Committee" and "XX Company". Letters to leaders of government agencies and organizations can be addressed by their names directly, plus "Comrade", "Mr." or positions, or directly followed by "leading comrades", "responsible comrades", "general manager" and "factory director". If the letter is written to two people at the same time, the two titles should be side by side, or one after another, with the elders first. Adjectives such as "respected", "beloved" and "dear" can sometimes be added to the above five occasions according to specific objects to show respect or intimacy. Of course, this should be used properly. For example, if you call your friend "dear", it will appear to be a stranger, and it will be impolite to call a young woman who has no special relationship "dear".

2. Text

The text usually begins with a greeting. Greeting is a civilized and polite behavior, but also a courtesy to the recipient, which reflects the writer's concern for the recipient. The most common greeting is "Hello!" "Almost ready!" According to the seasonal solar terms, there are often changes, such as "Happy New Year!" "Happy Spring Festival!" Greetings are written on the next line of salutation, with two spaces in front, which often form a paragraph. After greeting, there are often a few opening remarks. Such as "long time no see, hope that you are well." "How is everything recently?" "I haven't communicated for a long time, so I miss it!" Something like that Greetings should be concise and appropriate. Then there is the main part of the text-the text, which is what the author wants to say. It can be an appeal, a reply, an exhortation, an emotional expression, a polite refusal, a congratulations, a help, a sympathy, a narrative, a rebuttal, and so on. This part, before you start writing, you should keep it in mind, understand the main idea of writing, and make it clear and hierarchical. If you want to talk about several things at the same time in the letter, you should pay more attention to clear priorities, echo from beginning to end, and have appropriate details. It's better to say one thing at a time, and don't mix them up.

end

After writing the text, you should end the letter with some words of respect, wishes or encouragement. Traditionally, it is called greeting or tribute, which is a courtesy to the receiver. If you like, you can choose the right words according to people and specific situations, and don't use them indiscriminately. (See "Congratulations" in "Common Letters" in the next section. There are two ways to write the end: (1) After the text is finished, write "From here" on one line and "Salute" on the other. (2) Don't write "Henceforth", just write the words "salute", "good", "health" and "peace" on another line, and don't add suffixes to the text. You can also write "Best wishes" and "Best wishes" at the end of the article, and write "Ankang" and "Health" in the two blanks.

4. Signature and date

In the last line of the letter, sign the author's name. The signature should be written on the right half line after the end of the text. If you are writing to relatives and friends, you can add your own address, such as son, brother, brother, nephew, etc. And then write your name instead of your last name. If it is a letter to an organization, be sure to write down all your first and last names. After signing, sometimes "Gongcheng" and "Cautious" are added as appropriate to show respect. The above claims must be consistent with the letterhead title. A date indicating the writing time of a letter, written behind or below the signature. Sometimes the writer will add his own position, especially when writing on the road.

Classical Chinese letter format

Appellations are followed by appellations, which are used in classical Chinese letters, such as: Your Excellency Bachelor of Communications (Book of Bachelor of Shangdu by Wang Anshi) and Fourteen Brothers of Hong Shengjia (Book with Wu Hongsheng by Gong Zizhen); Another example is a fair seat, a gentleman's guide, a mother's kindness guide, a good brother and so on. The list of common address forms is as follows: In ancient times, it was originally used as a title of respect for subordinates to superiors, and later it was mostly used among colleagues in letters. In the past, children's letters to their parents began with "Parents kneeling on their knees". People often lean on their parents' knees when they are young, and use the word "below the knee" in their family books to show their respect and love for their parents. The hanging mirror gives you a mirror, and the statue is an ancient mirror, which means testing. Used as the address of a letter, this is a polite reading. Hanging means condescending. Giving is giving. Hook, in ancient times, used hook pottery to describe national politics, and later called eunuch hook. Lessons from the past, lessons from the past, are often used in letters to people who are old and virtuous. The sword can be used to respect elders and elders. Taijian is widely used, and "Tai" means "Gao", which can be used by familiar or unfamiliar elders and peers. Honor, pottery, big sword, long sword, and elegant sword Uighur can be regarded as the "honor" of those who occupy high positions and have meritorious deeds. For moral gentlemen and scholars, it can be called "Tao Jian". Great, English, great and elegant, with noble, beautiful, extraordinary and ordinary meanings, should be used in letters between friends. "See you later" means to enjoy reading, but its semantic component is lighter than that of "giving to see you", which is suitable for ordinary letters, and teachers can also use it as a courtesy to independent junior students. Kindness, love, love and double-edged sword can be called "kindness" for mothers. Love can be used as a guide between husband and wife, or between men and women who are close to each other. Letters to friends and friends can be used as "double reference". Letters between women can be written by "Fang Jian" Li Jian to undertaker and "Li Jian". For example, after the patriot Li Gongpu was killed, Zhou Enlai and others sent a letter of condolence to his wife, which was called "the ceremony of Ms. Zhang Manjun". Public reference can be used as a reference for letters to groups or people. After listing the names, you can use the book "Gentleman's Reference". Tao Xi Lecture Xi Teaching Xi Writing Xi History Xi Dorsey is often used by students as a title of respect for teachers. Lecturer and lecturer are also honorifics for scholars engaged in education and lectures, but for peers, there is no need for a teacher-student relationship between the writer and the recipient. Writing seats, writing seats, and historical seats are all honorifics for scholars, and they are often used interchangeably among scholars. Writing is writing. History refers to the history of works handed down from generation to generation. You will know after reading it. It is generally used to address young people and younger generations. The opening words are the opening words of letters, or greetings or reminders to write letters. The opening remarks should be part of the letter. Because this kind of fractal has become a series of idioms in ancient letters, it can often be seen in modern letters. Therefore, it is mentioned separately and divided into two types of examples for reference: (1) indicates that the writer is sincere and invites the recipient to read the letter. For example, the writer claims to be a respectful person, indicating the following words, such as "Dear Mother, kneel down". Kneeling, like honorifics, is used by children and grandchildren to respect their elders. I am the same as above. Respectfully, the writer, as a respectful statement, is very humble and asks the other party to allow him to say what he wrote below. It can be used for the peer and the next pair. Sincerity means prudence and solemnity. Used of companions. The meaning of path is very direct, which is very common for both public and private letters. People who worship enlightenment worship and pay tribute. Used for communication between friends. Respectable submitters and sincere submitters are used for public and private letters. Beginners are used for peers, indicating that the following message will write the content of asking for help from the other party. Hereby, here, now. Here, I intend to make a statement here today. Attitude is objective and peaceful, and there is no obvious respect. The letter of bereavement to relatives and friends is trustworthy. Respondents are used to reply to letters from relatives or superiors. For peers, you can use "start again". A letter used by the sponsor to talk about something. (2) according to the specific situation, or say hello, or prompt to write a letter. Such as memorizing Chinese notes, knowing everything. Suddenly, I was taught by hand and learned that one was. I long for the imperial edict. You got a grand performance and Jing gave you something. Thank you for your letter, if you meet your old friends. Fortunately, enlightened religion, enlightened. Recite the ruler to show my gratitude. My calligraphy is deeply loved. I'm glad to see this letter. After reading Flowers, I'm glad I can't violate it. I am very happy to read German. Teaching by hand is respected, and its meaning is profound and beautiful, inspiring. Tangent thinking, worthy of Hua Han, happy and inexplicable. Holding hands, it is a great relief to know Kangtai. I am grateful for this book and gave it a big book. If it is a river, I will be impressed. I'm sorry I didn't reply because of my complicated affairs. Taiwan Province's letter was read for many days, but it was not repaired immediately. I hope it will be buried in the sea. I learned from you, please forgive me. Thank you for your letter and good news. After reading the calligraphy, I know that you are ill and unsafe, which is very suspenseful. For a long time, Mu Caihong took the liberty to write a teaching book. I hope you are all right. I haven't seen you for a long time. I really appreciate your kindness. I haven't seen it for a long time, and my fist is extremely yin. When you ask a long question, you are in your mind. Farewell to the years increased my thoughts. I wrote a letter the other day. I'm afraid it's time. I think I have read the previous letter. In fact, writing letters is also writing articles. Although this kind of opening remarks can be used, it is not rigid and can be ever-changing. In this sense, the opening remarks can also be omitted. For example, many people are used to writing letters with the word "hello". It seems that if it weren't for this, the letter wouldn't go on. It is good to say hello to the recipient first, but if all the letters are in this pattern, it will be dull and monotonous.

Basic common sense

main body

The text of the letter, that is, what the writer said to the recipient, is the main body of the letter. The text starts from the second line of the letterhead, preceded by the word blank. If the prologue is on a separate line, the text can be written on the next line of the prologue. The contents of the letter are different, so there is no need to unify when writing, and the principle is accurate expression and accurate meaning. Generally speaking, talk about each other's affairs first, show concern, attention or gratitude and respect, and then talk about your own affairs. After the text is written, if there is any omission, it can be added at the end; Or write it in the bottom right corner of the letter, and add the words "other" and "again" before the postscript; Or write the words "friendship" or "enthusiasm" after the postscript.

label

The conclusion, that is, the conclusion of the letter, should be part of the text. However, similar to the "opening remarks", a series of commonly used concluding remarks have also been formed in old-style letters, which are still frequently used in books and slips of people from all walks of life. I might as well list some here for your reference. Books are short and long, so I won't repeat them one by one. Forgive me one by one. Come uninvited, I don't know Not ready. Not redundant.

I expect to show it in time, so that I can't catch it and feel any prayer. Tell the other party not to bother to reply: I'm glad to hear it, so don't bother to reply. I am sorry for your kindness, but don't bother to give me an answer. Answer the other person's inquiry: I'm sorry to ask, but I'm a little ignorant in Chen Gu, so I just chatted for a while. Coming from afar, I will ask questions and give a rough description of my humble opinion. I hope you can give me some advice. The above humble opinions are hardly elegant, please forgive me. One or two is not necessarily true, for reference only. Don't rush into this cloth, but don't laugh. Please answer: please do as you ask. Please believe me above, I sincerely hope you can give it to me. Everything is laborious, and I am begging for help. Expressing concern: photo by Fu Weizhen. Thank you for your prayers. It's not too late. Take care of yourself and pray as much as you want. Save labor and hope. I'm sorry for your loss. Thank you: Thank you again for your excellent service. It is a public friendship not to be afraid of trouble. I am deeply impressed by my friendship and love. A congratulatory letter is a phrase that expresses wishes, respect or encouragement to the recipient at the end of the letter, such as "ode to safety", "salute to this" and "I wish you progress". Among them, the words "ode", "from here" and "wish you" are written at the end of the article; The words "near safety", "salute" and "progress" should be written on a new line. If there are many words in the greeting, you can write it independently, and you don't need to split it in two. If there is enough space under the stationery, or in order to highlight the congratulatory message, you can also write the words "Zhu", "Award" and "From here" in a single line, leaving four spaces empty, and write "An", "Good" and "Salute" in the other top box. Generally, there is no punctuation mark after the congratulatory message written in the top case. Congratulatory messages should be appropriately selected according to specific circumstances.

The following are common greetings:

The content of the letter mainly tells one thing, which can be used as follows: dedicated to this, dedicated to this, dedicated to this, dedicated to this, dedicated to this reply, and wish (credit-oriented) a general letter to friends in the same industry: praise, please follow the instructions or do it: please wait for this, please wait a moment, please ask to wait for your elders, optional: Gong Gong Gong Xiao Gong Song and other Zhu, so please pay tribute to your peers, in order to emphasize respect.

Long Hongyou's exhibition ended successfully and everything went smoothly. Everything goes well with Pepsi and everything goes well with Li Sheng. In ancient letters, greetings were mostly integrated into the text, and it was not until modern times that an independent greeting column was gradually formed. Therefore, if the text of the letter already contains the content of blessing, or it is a congratulatory letter itself, then one sentence can be omitted. Also, if you say "hello" at the beginning of the letter, if you write a wish at the end of the letter, it will be very cumbersome and should be avoided. Signature means signing the author's name at the bottom right of the text. If you are writing to familiar relatives and friends, you can only write your first name, not your last name; Or add your own address before your name, such as brother, nephew, night, etc. Between the title and the name, the position of the word can be slightly empty; Or write the title in small print at the top left of the name. After the signature, you can add or not add a statement. Commonly used complaint words are: to the elders: knock on the door, pay tribute to the peers: from the top, sincerely wish to bow, bow, to the younger generation: the word means white hands, after signing or complaining, write the date of writing, or write the date at the lower right of the next line of signature. In addition, you can also write down the place, atmosphere and mood of the letter after the date, such as "on the boat", "under the light" and "all is silent" Attach a greeting or greeting. For example, the author's family members and close friends are also familiar with the recipient. Add a line after the signature or attach a greeting from these people, such as "someone sent a greeting". If you should greet the recipient's family, neighbors and relatives, you can add "Please pay tribute to XXX". If you are an elder, you can say "Please say hello to XXX in the top four" and so on.

Edit the classification and format of this letter.

Letters are divided into general letters and special letters.

Special letters mainly include commendation letters, thank-you letters and invitations. This kind of letter is mostly used between units and people, and between units. An ordinary letter consists of two parts: an envelope and a letter. An envelope is something displayed on the outside, while a letter is the main body of the letter.

(a) the writing format of the envelope

Envelopes are divided into vertical envelopes and horizontal envelopes. Horizontal envelopes are widely used now. The following contents should be accurately filled in on the envelope: The postal code is in China, and the unified postal code has been used all the time except Taiwan Province Province. Postal code is a special code composed of Arabic numerals, which is used to represent the post office and its delivery area. The current postal code consists of 6 digits. For example, the postcode of Changchun No.5 Middle School in Jilin Province is 13006 1. When writing postal code, it should be noted that the space on the top left of the front of the envelope should fill in the postal code of the recipient's location, while the space on the bottom right is the postal code of the sender's location. If the detailed address of the recipient is sent to a city family, the province (city, autonomous region), city (county), city, road, street (lane) and house number where the recipient is located should be specified, and if it is a high-rise building, the room number should also be specified. If you send it to a rural family, you should write province, county, township, village and even street. If you send it to the recipient's work unit, you should not only write down the recipient's detailed address, but also indicate the full name of the unit and the specific department. When writing an address, you can write one line or two lines. There should be a space between the name of the earth and the name of a small place, and between the name of a place and the number. The recipient's name must be finished and cannot be omitted. Common spelling mistakes are "Lao Wang", "Xiao Yang" and "Chairman". Leave the words "comrade", "sir" and "miss" blank after the recipient's name, or leave them blank. It must be noted that the envelope should not be written by the writer's relatives to the recipient, because the envelope is mainly for the courier. If you write "Uncle XX" and "Grandpa XX", it may cause the courier's displeasure. The address and name of the sender must be written on the envelope, because when the letter cannot reach the recipient for some reason, the post office must return the letter with this information. It is absolutely unacceptable to "send it from the king of this city" and "the details inside". The above situation is mainly aimed at postal letters. If the letter is sent by a trustee, the words "please pay", "face to face" and "annoying" should be written on the top left of the envelope according to the specific situation. If the sender is familiar with the recipient's address, there is no need to write the recipient's address. The address of the writer is generally omitted, just write "XXX" and "please XXX". Sometimes, in order to show respect and trust for the sender, or the content of the letter is general and does not involve public or private secrets, it is best not to seal the envelope.

There are two ways to write the ending: (1) Write "From here" immediately after writing the text, and write "Salute" in the top box or two blank boxes. (2) Don't write "Henceforth", just write two words on another line, such as "Salute", "Health" and "Ankang". Be sure to start a new line with two spaces, and don't put a suffix after the text.

If you write to an organization, you must write down your first and last name. Write the year, month and day of the letter after the name, or at the lower right of the next line of the name, so that the recipient can check it. 5. Postscript. There are four cases: (1) Attach the detailed address. If the first communication or the address of the writer changes, the communication office or detailed address of the other party shall be notified. (2) greetings. For example, "Please say hello to my aunt". Some people also entrust the writer to greet the recipient on his behalf, such as "Sister sends greetings with a pen". (3) Annex description. Photos, bills, etc. are attached to the letter. This should be explained. (4) Additional words. After writing the letter, if you find anything to add, you can add it later.
