第一篇：我為能在此設(shè)宴招待威廉斯副總統(tǒng)和夫人以及其他貴賓而深感榮幸和愉快

我為能在此設(shè)宴招待威廉斯副總統(tǒng)和夫人以及其他貴賓而深感榮幸和愉快。我愿借此機(jī)會(huì)向各位來(lái)賓表示熱烈的歡迎。我此時(shí)的心情可以用孔子在《論語(yǔ)》中的一句話來(lái)表達(dá)：“有朋自遠(yuǎn)方來(lái)，不亦樂(lè)呼。”

It is my privilege and great pleasure to host this banquet in honor of Vice president and Mrs.Williams and other distinguished guests.I would avail myself of this opportunity to extend my warm welcome to you all.A remark in The Analects of Confucius can best express what I feel now, “It is such a delight to have friends coming from afar!”

在我結(jié)束講話之際，我請(qǐng)各位與我一起舉杯，為威廉斯副總統(tǒng)和夫人的身體健康，為所有貴賓們的身體健康，為我們兩國(guó)之間的友誼與合作，為世界和平與繁榮，干杯！

In closing, I would like you to join me in a toast To the health of Vice president and Mrs.Williams, To the health of all our distinguished guests, To the lasting friendship and cooperation between our two countries, To the peace and prosperity of the world, Cheers!
