BEC商务英语辅导 圣诞晚会

2008-12-13来源:和谐英语
  英文正文
  Oh boy, you know I'm not much of a speechmaker. I might just send everybody heading for the door. Where should I begin?
  I'll make this short and sweet. This has been a momentous, record-breaking year for Action Appliances. We've successfully entered the Canadian market and the future looks bright for U.S. distribution in 1998.
  This lion's share of that success is due to the outstanding efforts of the marketing and sales departments. They've worked their fingers to the bone preparing for the big push overseas.
  And now, I'd like to propose a toast. To my fellow colleagues and their families, and to the prosperous future of Action Appliances; cheers and Merry Christmas!
