请假条(written request for leave)是常用应用文之一，用于向老师或上级领导等因身体状况不好或因某事请求准假的场合。它包括请病假(note for sick leave)和请事假(leave of absence)。

英文请假条写作需注意三点：

1.写法和汉语请假条相同，一般由四部分组成，即时间、称呼、正文和署名。

2.请假条是一种简单的书信文体，一般写在纸上，不用信封。

3.要求开门见山、内容简短、用词通俗易懂。

【范文例析1】

假如你是王磊。昨天你和同学们踢球，不幸伤了腿，但伤得不重。医生让你在家里好好休息。因此，你向卢老师请假两天(ask for leave for two days)。

【参考范文】

Sept.20

Dear Miss Lu，

I'm sorry I can't go to school today. I played football with my classmates yesterday. Unluckily, I fell off and hurt my leg, but I wasn't badly hurt. The doctor asked me to stay in bed and have a good rest. So I ask for leave for two days.

Many thanks. I'm looking forward to your kind answer.

【点评】这是一份采用书信格式写的请假条。日期是September 20。日期写在正文的右上角。由于请假条的内容大多是当天、近几日因病或因事请假，所以不必写上年份。

称呼是Dear Miss Lu，写在左上角。请假条因是向老师或上级请示，一般以Dear...,或My dear...,开头。有时可在Dear之后，用上Mr.或Miss等的称呼加上姓氏。有一点要注意，各种称呼后面一般都用逗号。

正文谈了一件事：I fell off and hurt my leg，but I wasn't badly hurt. I can't come to school. I ask for leave for two days. 简洁明了，用词口语化。写请假条只要把请假的理由和请假时间说清楚即可。有的请假条为了说明其请假事由是真实的，在正文之后另起一行，写上I enclose a doctor's certificate.(我附上了医生证明)。

署名为Wang Lei。署名写在右下角，署名上面一行可以写上Yours, Your student等字样。

【范文2】

Sept. 20

Dear Miss Lu,

I would like to know if I could ask for a casual leave of absence from Sept. 21 to 25.

Yesterday I received a letter from my parents, who are both over 60, telling me that a big flood took place at my home village, causing serious damage to my house. As the only son of my parents, I should help them to get over these difficulties. Though I cannot stay at home for too long a time, I should at least make arrangements for repair work. I believe my relatives and neighbors will also come to help. Financially I have no difficulties.

I’m looking forward to your kind answer.

Your student
