Ladies and gentlemen,

I’m Very glad to have all of you here. First, let me introduce Junshan Park to you. It is one of the largest parks in Yueyang .The ticket for an adult is 80 yuan. The children over 1.20 meters in height can pay half of the price, and the ones under1.20 meters can enter the park for free. The park is open from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on weekdays and from 8:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. at weekends.

By the way, while visiting the park, you mustn’t play with fire. That would be very dangerous. A terrible fire might break out. You mustn’t feed the animals. Besides, you mustn’t throw rubbish around, either.
