2. 称呼：对收信人的尊称。
最普通的是Dear，但与Mr，Mrs，Miss等不同的是：Dear后一般用名字，而Mr，Mrs，Miss后不能单独用名字，而只能是姓或姓与名，比如：对John Smith的称呼，应该是Mr Smith，Mr John Smith或 Dear John.称呼后面可用逗号或者冒号。

这部分要特别注意英语习惯，不可根据汉语意思写上诸如“此致敬礼”、“祝您健康”之类的中国式的结尾语。常用的英语书信结尾语如下：
写给同龄人或年长的朋友： Yours  sincerely，Sincerely yours，Yours等等。
写给好朋友： Love，With love， Best wishes等等。
写给亲戚：Love，With love，Affectionately yours，Your （ever） loving son（sister等等）。
5. 签名。
签名一般在结尾语的下面一行。

感谢：Thank you for your wonderful gift / your interesting letter.
关心与询问：How are you these days？/ How are you getting on these days？/ How are you getting on with your work/studies？
抱歉：I am sorry that I did not write to you sooner but I have been very busy these days. 
一般在表示道歉没有及时给对方写信时，还要简述原因或写上安慰的话。
遗憾：I was sorry to learn that you did not do well in the examination. / I was so upset to hear that you are ill these days. I do hope you are getting better.
