習作點評

NOTICE
In order to improve the speaking ability of students, the Students’ Union has decided to organize a English speaking Contest.
The English speaking Contest is going to be held in the school’s auditorium in the fifth floor at 4:00 p.m. on June 9th. All the students who are in senior school are welcome to this activity. Those who want to take part in the contest are requested to sign up for it at the Student’s Union office before May 25th. If you are one of the first five students, you will receive a beautiful present from the Student’s Union.
The Student’s Union 本篇習作符合書面通知的格式要求，表達也較為流暢、清晰，且運用了較多的句型結構。但要注意如下幾個問題：
1.準確用好原題所給詞匯，如the Student Union, the English-speaking Contest；
2.注意細節問題，如劃線部分；
3.最后一句中，用one of the first five winners似更為貼切。
②
Ladies and gentlemen,
Welcome to our city. I’d like to show the case so that you can have a good trip.
We will visit the city on July. 22nd, Saturday. After we have a breakfast, we will set out at eight. It is in the place which we visit that we have lunch. And then we will go back in the afternoon.
The members will be divided into four groups. And each group will visit a place: Factory, School, Farm and Hospital.
Welcome to attend a group for everyone. Do remember: choose the place and write your name on the Service Desk tonight.
此口頭通知存在較多的問題：
1.開頭與結尾缺少必要的套語；
2.要點不夠完整準確（通知大忌！）：9點前簽名；
3.冠詞用法錯誤：After we have breakfast…, …visit a place: a factory, a school, a farm and a hospital;
請對照參考范文改正劃線部分不妥之處。
