导读：书信写作旨在考查学生在实际生活中应用英语的能力，体现了学习英语的实用性。书信种类很多，它包括建议信、感谢信、慰问(候)信、祝贺信、鼓励信、介绍信、自荐信、询问信、求职信及其答复信、邀请信及其接受邀请的信、读者请求的解答信及其答复读者的信等。书信格式一般不作考查内容(开头和结尾已给出)，重点考查考生的谋篇布局、遣词造句能力。长沙新东方高考频道整理了书信的写作要点，供学生参考学习。

　　总的说来，写英语书信时有以下几点须注意：

　　1.信件开头要开门见山、直入主题。常用语句是(1)I’m writing to...;(2)I’d like to...。

　　2.信的正文是信函的主体部分。在高考作文中应该按照题目要求把题目的要点表达清楚;使文章逻辑清晰、语言通顺;可以根据需要分为若干个段落;要确保没有遗漏内容要点。

　　3.注意根据收信人的年龄身份不同，信的语气也应不同，对朋友要亲切自然，对领导或长辈要委婉。

　　参考范文

　　Dear Headmaster，

　　We have been asked about our opinions on opening iPad classrooms. I am in favor of this plan for the following reasons.To begin with，everyone learns differently.Students can customize their iPad with materials that fit their level and learning style，and thus tailor it to different needs.Moreover，when connected to the Internet，students can interact with teachers and classmates about what they learn more conveniently.For the sake of environmental protection，opening iPad classrooms is a good way to save trees that we have been cutting down for paper.Most importantly，I believe students will develop their interests in the subjects by enjoying a new way of learning.

　　I hope you would take my ideas into consideration and we look forward to attending an iPad class.

　　Yours sincerely，

　　Li Hua
