A Museum Notice with Different Rules · 독자 제작 연습 지문
1A small museum introduced a notice system to help visitors choose activities without repeatedly asking the reception desk. The old notice listed every workshop in a single column. Although the times were correct, visitors often assumed that any workshop on the list still had seats. The revised notice separated available workshops from full ones. Staff also added a clear symbol beside activities that required visitors to bring their own materials. The symbols did not change the number of seats; they made existing information easier to interpret.
2A student editor was asked to describe this revision for three different displays. The first display allowed only words from a supplied list. The second required the editor to add exactly one word from the museum's explanation, changing its form if necessary. The third required two actions to be expressed with two separate to-infinitives. The editor initially wrote one fluent sentence and copied it into all three displays. However, the supervisor pointed out that preserving the general message was not enough when each display imposed a different writing rule.
3The editor then checked the instructions before arranging the words. Each expression was linked to its source, and any permitted repetition was marked in advance. This process did not replace checking the meaning. A sentence could use every supplied word and still wrongly suggest that the notice had created new seats. The final review therefore examined both the origin of the words and the relationship expressed by the completed sentence.
