怎样写好英文发言稿

陈坡

◎文体概述

发言稿是参加会议者为了在会议或重要活动上表达自己的意见、看法或汇报思想、工作情况而事先准备好的文稿。

发言稿的格式一般由三部分构成：

1. 称呼。顶格书写，常用的称呼有Dear Mr/Mrs/Miss...、Dear Sir/Madam、Ladies and gentlemen等。

2. 正文。

3. 结束语。常用“Thank you for listening！”。

发言稿的写作要注意以下三点：

1. 明确演讲的对象很重要，针对不同的听众，发言的内容不同;

2. 发言稿中的观点要明确;

3. 发言稿的语言要通俗易懂、层次清晰、逻辑性强。

【佳作赏析1】

Dear friends，

How time flies！ Your visit to our school is drawing a close.① Please allow me to take this opportunity to bid your a fond farewell.②

During your stay with us， which lasted for two weeks， we communicated with each other so much that③ we developed deep friendship. We did so many activities together like learning the differences between China and Britain， playing basketball and games and so on. By this exchange activity， we have a deeper understanding of English culture.④ Besides， it's your enthusiasm and teamwork when you played basketball that give me a deep impression.⑤ At this farewell party， I will express my gratitude to all of you and I hope we can keep our friendship forever.

Looking forward to your coming to China again.⑥

Thank you.

亮点分析：全文中多数句子为简单句，但也不缺乏高级句式，如强调句和when引导的时间状语从句等。另一个优点就是全文使用了多个高级短语，如communicate with、have a deeper understanding of、express one's gratitude、keep one's friendship、look forward to等。

①使用短语draw a close表明这次交流活动即将结束。

②短语allow sb to do sth和take this oppor-tunity to do sth，表明了作者在此演讲的目的。

③so...that...结构表示“如此……以至于……”，表明了作者与英国学生们友谊形成的过程和原因。

④句中have a deeper understanding of的使用，表达了作者对英国文化的理解程度，尤以deeper使用得更为恰当。

⑤该句为强调句，强调enthusiasm和team-work，句中when引导时间状语从句。

⑥该句表达了作者对这些英国学生的诚挚邀请，且短语look forward to的使用表达了作者的期望。

【佳作赏析2】

Dear friends，

How time flies！ The two-week exchange activity is coming to a close①. As the chairman of the Students' Union， it's my honor to say something before you leave for England.②

During the two weeks， your friendliness and talents left us a deep impression.③ For one thing， you didn't hesitate to help us when we had difficulty learning English， which benefited us a lot④. For another⑤， when we played basketball after school， your wonderful performance and teamwork had a profound effect on us. It is by this activity that we have learned more about English culture.⑥ Much to our relief， you also love our Chinese culture and characters.

True friendship never ends. I hope we can keep in touch with each other. Welcome to China again.

Thank you.

亮點分析：本篇习作采用三段式的结构布局，层次清晰、前后逻辑性较强。文中出现了高级句式，如定语从句和强调句，成为文章一大亮点;并且作者使用了多个高级短语，表明作者的词汇量丰富。

③使用了短语leave sb a deep impression，表明此次活动对作者的影响。

④which引導的非限制性定语从句为文章增色。
