Repair the form before interpreting it
- The form our本(modifier / structural particle)的company公司to reinstate恢复to do business营业 needs repair here. Write our本company公司to reinstate恢复to do business营业 instead; keep the word or frame in its demonstrated order.
- Form and meaning are separate checks. After the repair, explain the sentence in its situation rather than treating a familiar translation as a universal rule.
Rewrite the demonstrated repair exactly: 本的公司恢复营业
The demonstrated form is 本公司恢复营业. 本公司 points to the company issuing the notice.
Keep the distinction
- our本company公司 points to the company issuing the notice. Check the relevant speaker, time or group in the surrounding context.
- our本 is also used for the current time or item: our本week周、our本next in sequence次. It is not the measure word our本 in one / a一our本book书, and our本company公司 should not be used for an unrelated competitor.

A company writes a notice about its own opening hours. Close the examples. Say a Mandarin response, then write it in Chinese. Explain briefly in English what the lesson’s pattern adds. Compare with the model, then change one detail and try again.
This is supported productive practice. Compare meaning and structure; your answer need not copy the model. A partner or teacher must hear the spoken response to comment on pronunciation.
