3, the body: this is the main body of the letter, can be divided into a number of paragraphs to write.

4. Greetings. To the most general "hereby" "salute" as an example. "To" can have two correct position to write, immediately after the main body of the text, not another paragraph, no punctuation; in the body of another line under two spaces.

The top space in the second half of the address and salutation is a kind of respect for the recipient. It is a continuation of the ancient tradition of "lifting the head" of letters. Ancient letters were written vertically, the line involves the other recipient's name or address, in order to show respect, no matter where the writing to the other party's name or address to the next line of the top of the writing.

Write the date on the next line. If you forget to write something, you can write "enclosed" in the empty line under the date, and then write the unfinished business in another line.

The body of the letter from the second line of the letterhead to start writing, the front of the empty two words. If the opening statement is on a separate line, the body of the letter can be written on the next line of the opening statement with two blank words.
