1)We find that you have forgotten to file the required personal data form

原句里有一个悬浮修饰语Upon examining our records,其逻辑主语应该是we,但是句子中的形式主语却是it;因此可以改成We find that.另外,把定语从句which is required改成一个前置形容词,省略了两个词。

2)All applicants for the job must provide three references

求职者肯定是对这个工作感兴趣的,因此没有必要说who are interested in the job。另外,be obligated to do. 这个短语太正式古板,也很冗长,不如说must。还有reference一词不仅可指推荐信,也可指推荐人,证明人等。

3)He spoke angrily about the recent proposal on promotion policies

把as if feeling angry缩写成一个副词,另外把定语从句that was recently suggested缩写成前置形容词recent。

4)Obvioudy,the most experienced and efficient manager should be considered first for promotion.

我们把插入语it seems obvious改为一个修饰全句的副词;另外,定语从句who is most experienced and with the greatest efficiencv是不平行结构,并列连词and前后的句子成分不一样,前面是从句,后面却是介词短语。最后,for being promoted是个很笨拙的表达方式,不如直接说for promotion。

5)The vice—president,a woman graduate from a law sch001.had long experience in business.

原句里含有一个不平行结构who had graduated from law school and with long experience in the business world.

6)The president presented the annual report and then announced the merger.

这个句子含有一个悬浮修饰语After haying presented the annual report;另外,原句用被动语态显得很笨拙,不如用主动语态简洁有力。

7)The convention scheduled for January was cancelled owing tO travel restrictions

从句which was scheduled for.被改写成一个由动词的过去分词构成的后置定语,for the month of January直接改成for January.

due to the fact that是累赘语(deadwood),restrictions Dlaced on travel可以改成travel restrictions。

8)The salesperson told US to write to the main office directlv for information

我们把宾语从句that we should write to. 改成由动词不定式构成的宾语补足语。

9)The advertising manager wrote the brochure,had it printed and mailed to customers

这个句子改为主动态更为简洁流畅。

lO)We are writing tO inform you of the change in our plans for the meeting on May 2,1995.

符合介词in order to可以缩短为to就行了。以下句子由你自己分析,不再加评论。

11)The above date is not suitable,and we have found that May 5,1995 is more convenient for the three speakers to address the meeting.

12)We will trv tO find out whether it is wise to use the central office for the meeting and let you know.
