英语演讲短文——餐后演说

　　It is a great honor and prestige to be asked to make a speech here tonight. I have chosen a rather serious, unpleasant subject for tonight's speech: it is the problem of trade friction between China and the United States.

　　It seems that criticism is directed mainly toward China for its large trade surplus vis-a-vis the United States. As of the summer of 1997, the annual surplus amounted to some US $ 50 billion. The reason for that is that automobiles and electronic products of China are outselling the American equivalents. Criticism also goes to the closed market of China. Americans demand that China open its market for American agricultural products such as crops, fruit, and food-meat, and that the complex Chinese distribution system be simplified.

　　However, I think the basic posture the Americans are taking needs to be changed. That is, Americans tend to assume that the Chinese are all to blame, and they also demand quick changes from the Chinese. I think what we really need is a little more patience and effort to understand each other. Mutual understanding is indispensable today when international interdependence is the rule.

　　I hope my speech will serve as "food for thought" and that you will be able to "digest" it well. Thank you

篇2：英语演讲短文——介绍他人

　　 Ladies and gentlemen, it is a great pleasure to have you all come to our lecture presentation this evening. Before we start off with the lecture, may I say a few words about tonight's guest speaker by way of introduction?

　　Tonight's guest speaker, as you all know, is Mr. Song Jiang, currently president of Vtech pacific company. He was born in ChongQing in 1965 and grew up there until he became 18 years old when he was drafted into the chinese air force to join a special squad called "Flying Dragon." He narrowly escaped death in the military mission, and after the War, started his own business, and now you know the rest of the story. Forty years later, he is an owner of one of the leading companies in ChongQing with the annual business of NT US$ 5 Million.

　　Tonight he is going to talk about the secret of successful management of his company as he gives us a lecture entitled, "Strategies and Tactics for Corporate Management and Expansion" ladies and Gentlemen, Mr Song Jiang.

篇4：英语演讲短文——祝贺升迁

　　1.为对上司的祝贺

　　Congratulations, Mr. Hoffman, on your promotion to the managing director of the personnel department. Under your directorship, I am sure the department will grow even stronger and more closely united.

　　Also, I want to take this opportunity to thank you for being our section director. Needless to say, You have always been a great boss, and I'm sure you will make even a greater director in the personnel department.

　　2.为对同事的升迁

　　I want to say congratulations to you, Jim, for your promotion to sales manager. You have been a great colleague as well as a good friend. And I am proud of you.

　　Good luck, Jim, and come drop by our office any time.

　　这是相当“敏感的”演说。无论上司也好同事也罢，我们对于别人的晋升难免总会有几分“嫉妒”（ENVY）的心情。当然这种心情一旦暴露出来，演说就垮了。诸如“这次的晋升对您来说实至名归”（a promotion you richly deserve)这类赞美之辞乃属必要。
