通知是应用文中最常用文体之一，也是高考英语中最常考的书面表达题型之一。根据其表现形式，通知可分为口头通知和书面通知两种，且两者各有其特点。

一、口头通知

1. 掌握口头通知特点

口头通知即以口头的形式表达通知的内容，其特点是：用词较口语化，句子不会太复杂，通常只需用一段话讲清其内容即可。另外，口头通知的开头和结尾通常都有一定的固定套语，同学们也应特别注意。

2. 妥用口头通知呼语

口头通知的开头称呼语通常需根据听众的具体情况来确定，有时还要考虑其场合是否正式。如在比较正式且男女听众兼有的场合，通常用Ladies and gentlemen 来称呼听众，同时注意该表达的词序，不要想当然地将其倒过来，且一定要用复数。当然，若听众中只有男士，则只用Gentlemen；或者只有女士，则只用Ladies。但是，如果在非正式场合，则比较随便。对学生用的称呼语通常是Boys and girls。

3. 熟记口头通知套语

(1) 在用口头下达通知时，发通知者通常要将听通知人的注意力吸引过来，这类表达常见的有：

May I have your attention, please?

Attention please, everyone. I have an announcement to make.

Be quite. There is something important I have to tell you.

I have something (important) to tell you.

I’m glad to tell you something important.

(2) 其他用于口头通知的固定套语(如叫听者不要迟到、欢迎某人参加某活动等)：

Everyone is asked to be there on time.

Be sure not to be late.

Please be present on time.

Please take your notebooks with you and be sure on time.

Those who are interested in it are warmly welcome.

(3) 口头通知的结束套语主要有：

That’s all. Thank you very much.

4. 牢记口头通知时态

口头通知是要告诉大家即将进行的活动，因此要以一般将来时为主。如：

We will go to the Great Wall tomorrow.

We’ll have a meeting about it after the sixth class.

There will be an English film in our school tonight.

The match will be put off to next week.

We are going to hold a meeting to discuss the problem.

5. 口头通知实战演练

假如你是班长，根据下面的内容和提示，写一篇100左右的口头通知，以便向同学们宣布。

事由：欢迎澳大利亚学生来校参观。

参观时间：6月15日上午9:00-12:00.

参观人数：约60人。

活动安排：1. 8:30在校门口。

          2. 9:00带客人到会议室开联欢会。

          3. 领客人参观植物园、校办工厂。

          4. 11:00在操场进行篮球比赛。

          5. 客人12:00离校。

注意事项：1. 对客人要友好。

2. 要用英语交谈。

写作示范：

Boys and girls,

May I have your attention, please? About sixty Australian students will come to visit our school on June 15. We’ll meet them at the school gate at 8:30. We’ll take them to the meeting-room, where a get-together will be held. After that, we’ll show them around our botanical garden and the school-run factory. At11:00 there will be a basketball match on the playground. They’ll leave our school at 12:00.

Please be friendly to them. We must talk with them in English.

That’s all. Thank you.(www.yygrammar.com)
