00Welcome to the seminar and the seminar you are attending will last for three hours. 02br
02br
00The topics to be covered on each hour are as follows:02br
02br
00First Hour: Learning to sing a typical Chinese song, paying special attention to how it is to be sung as natural-sounding as possible, taking notes of its intonations and rhythm.02br
02br
01i00(I sometimes have difficulties with using the word "notes" in a verb form, can you kindly go over the usage?)02i02br
02br
00Second Hour: Form groups of five and will lead a carefree conversation session, talking about things that are happening today and what you expect to happen in the near future.02br
02br
00Third Hour: Read a newspaper article chosen by the speaker and a short discussion on the article will follow.02br
02br
00I hope you will have great hours and hope to see you tomorrow at the same time here.02br

0Thank you. I want to ask about the title.02br
02br
00If the seminar is for the "leaders," can I title it "01b00Leader's Seminar02b00"? Should the title sum up the content of the seminar or it be the name for the attendees like the aforementioned title? 0-

0Hi,02br
02br
00It can be either, but I think it's better to base it on the content. The people attending already know who they are, what they want to know is what the seminar is about.02br
