Question

阅读下面的文字，用英语写一篇100—120词的短文。（说明文）

近来，某书店生意不景气。假若你是店员，请你给店主写份报告，提出自己的建议，以吸引多的年轻人来店购买书刊。

Answer

One possible version:

To attract young people to our bookstore, in the first place, we must supply them with interesting magazines and books. I suggest a poster outside announcing subjects of interest, such as music, films, video, football and so on.

Magazines should be sold at lower prices for the first-time customers. Once they come to the shop they will see other attractions.

Also advertise on the local media about discounts for young people on all books bought in the next month. Operate an exchange programme where they can trade old books for new ones at a special price. Reserve a youth section in the shop where books and magazines interesting to them are on show. Invite them to come and sit in the comfortable chairs provided, to meet friends and look through books and magazines.

If we adopt proper strategies, young people will be attracted to our shop, and the sales will be on the rise.
