　　老師提示：
　　商務寫作中遵循的原則是：簡潔，精確，禮貌。在考試中或者工作中，格式基本已經給出，所以只需要我們寫正文即可。正文中我們寫作要做到選詞精當，一針見血，語法正確，不出低級錯誤的句子。備忘錄屬于半正式的文體寫作，所以在句子選擇上可以適當放寬，不必太正式。

　　_________________________________________
　　1.Business writing 中盡量少使用because....so... 這樣的結構，看起來不夠專業，改為：As we plan to upgrade.....
　　2.有中式英文的痕跡：我要求你們。。。。改為：please prepare alternative work if you have to use the computer.
　　3.這不能算作accident, 既然已經計劃好了。整句去掉。換成thank you.
　　網友作文二：
　　From: office manager
　　To: all staff
　　Subject: the company system
　　I would like to notify you that [1]the computer system of our company's will be shut down on this Tuesday for a whole day long [2]on account of the system needs a upgrade.[3]Therefore, please taking notice of this event in advance, in case of some potential inconveniences and troubles on Tuesday, yet prepare alternative work for that day. [4]
　　Thank you.[5]　　_________________________________________
　　[1]去掉這個開頭，直接用被動語態開頭。
　　[2]去掉，多余了。
　　[3]如果你不能保證用長復句可以表達清楚，那么建議換成短句吧。拆成幾個短句也許表達更貼切呢。
　　[4]這句話看起來非常不清楚，主語在哪里？please 的后面是嗎？改成：please make sure that you have prepared alternative work.
　　[5]另換一行
