亲爱的简森先生，
我代表学校学生会写这封信。如您所知，我们正在举办全校公开演讲比赛，决赛将于5月10日(上午9点至下午12点)在演讲厅举行。我写信是想请问您是否愿意帮助我们评判总决赛。
从3月份开始，我们已经举办了两轮比赛，有100多名学生参加。现在我们有12名学生参加总决赛。总决赛的演讲题目是“创新教育”。学生必须就这个话题用英语发表五分钟的演讲。
在最后一轮中，作为一名评委，您要负责听所有的演讲，记下每个演讲的积极或消极方面。评判标准应该是参赛者的发音、清晰度和流畅度，以及创意和观众参与度的进展情况。然后，您要和其他三位评委一起讨论，并决定获得一等奖、二等奖和三等奖的选手。
您有时间参加5月8日下午4点在学生会会议室举行的简短会议吗？这样我们可以把您介绍给其他评委并讨论细节。我们不会占用您太多的时间。
我真诚地希望您能来。如果您有任何问题，请告诉我。
谨上，
赵正
学生会主席
