网友作文一:

TO: ALL STAFF
FROM: MANAGER
SUBJECT: CHANGE THE COMPANY NAME
As you know, (our company has merged last week)[1]. We decide to change the name. [2] From July. 8th the company name changes to MasonGolding.
Please pay attention to use the new name for[3] instead when you have a meeting with client. [4]
Thank you

_________________________________________
[1]这句话明显是中文的痕迹,译成中文,中国人可以理解,外国人肯定不能。
[2]既然并购就意味着要换公司的名字,怎么是we decide?在商务英语的写作中,主语一般都选择客体代词,避免应用主观性很强的句子。
[3]Instead 可以直接放在句尾,不用介词。
[4]这个范围也太有限了,难道只有和客户见面才用新名称么?整句改为:please use the new name officially from then.
