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 本篇习作符合书面通知的格式要求，表达也较为流畅、清晰，且运用了较多的句型结构。但要注意如下几个问题：
1.准确用好原题所给词汇，如the Student Union, the English-speaking Contest；
2.注意细节问题，如划线部分；
3.最后一句中，用one of the first five winners似更为贴切。
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.
此口头通知存在较多的问题：
1.开头与结尾缺少必要的套语；
2.要点不够完整准确（通知大忌！）：9点前签名；
3.冠词用法错误：After we have breakfast…, …visit a place: a factory, a school, a farm and a hospital;
请对照参考范文改正划线部分不妥之处。
