(2016·东北三省三校联合模拟考试)Do
you
struggle
with
business
writing？Are
teams
and
individuals
asking
for
help
with
their
business
writing
skills
__1__
Since
1990,
we
have
been
helping
employees
and
managers
write
better.
Everything
written
in
business
reflects
the
image
of
the
company
and
the
writer.
__2__
This
means
organizing
ideas
well,
checking
that
the
language
is
accurate
and
that
the
presentation
is
professional.
Writing
successfully
is
always
the
result
of
careful
planning.
Before
you
start
writing,
you
need
to
decide
why
you
are
writing
and
what
you
hope
to
achieve.
This
will
help
you
decide
what
to
include
in
your
writing
and
whether
to
write
an
e mail,
a
letter
or
perhaps
a
report.
Meanwhile,
think
about
readers.
__3__
The
structure
of
what
you
write
can
guide
readers
and
help
them
understand
the
content
of
your
writing
so
that
they
can
respond.
While
you
are
writing,
you
need
to
think
about
how
you
organize
your
ideas.
Writing
a
report
may
involve
presenting
data
and
linking
complex
ideas;
writing
a
memo
(备忘录)
may
involve
describing
a
situation
and
dealing
with
ways
of
improving
it.
You
need
to
understand
how
to
construct
paragraphs.
__4__
After
you
have
finished
writing
comes
the
very
important
process
of
revising,
checking
and
correcting.
__5__
You
will
find
plenty
of
useful
information
about
effective
business
writing.
In
our
courses,
participants
get
tools,
tips,
techniques,
job
aids,
and
follow up
resources
to
help
them
write
better.
A．Contact
us.
B．Assess
your
skills
here.
C．It
will
help
you
choose
appropriate
structures.
D．A
range
of
words
can
be
used
to
link
your
ideas.
E．Spelling
mistakes
should
be
checked
and
corrected.
F．So
it
is
very
important
that
writing
is
done
to
the
highest
standards.
G．Here
comes
the
good
news.

I

Some

because

Sitting
at
the
piano,
I
couldn't
help
recalling
many

—
time
of
my
practising

and
playing
before

and
one

These
memories,
__13__，
good
or
bad,
never
caused
my
__14__
to
play
the

again.
This
thought
then
led
me
to
think
that
__15__
is
like
music,
and
that
we
all
try
to
play
different

in
the
instrument
of
our
life.
Sometimes
the
pitch
(音高)
is
__17__
when
we
play
it
well,
but
sometimes
we
are
out
of
tone.
However,
we
all
continue
to
create
our
own
__18__
style
of
music.
No
matter
what
style
our
music
is,
it
is
__19__
that
we
sing
the
songs
of
joy,
quietness
and
love.
Though
I
may
never
make
it
back
to
piano
lessons,
it
doesn't
__20__
that
I've
stopped
making
music.
