圣诞节宴会司仪之致词

Welcome, everybody,
Merry Christmas to you all! Thank you for coming tonight to celebrate this happy and joyous occasion.
Christmas is really a wonderful time of the year, and there is something in this holiday to appeal to everybody. For myself, I love the pretty decorations that can be seen everywhere. See how wonderful this room looks with all the bright reds and greens everywhere. I know of a fact that my friend over there, Mr. Kane, appreciates Christmas food the most, especially the roast turkey that can be had during the season. And Miss Wells over there likes Christmas because of all the presents she gets from her boyfriends.
There’s another reason for liking Christmas, a reason that we should al try to remember. Christmas is the time of brotherhood. At Christmas, we all think more of our fellow men, we are all kind to each other, and we all become generous and warm to each other in the spirit of the season. This is a wonderful attitude to have, and we all feel the better for it. How miraculous it would be if we could keep this spirit all through the year.
Merry Christmas once again to all of you!

欢迎光临，各位：
大家圣诞快乐！谢谢你们今晚至此，庆祝这个快乐、欢愉的节日。
圣诞节真是一年中一个美妙的时刻，这个节日有它迷人之处。就我而言，我喜欢到处都看得到的美丽装饰。瞧，这屋子在挂满了闪亮的红红绿绿之后，看起来多棒！我知道一个事实，在那边的一位朋友，肯恩先生，最欣赏圣诞大餐，尤其是这个季节能吃到的烤火鸡。还有站在那里的威尔斯小姐也喜欢圣诞节，因为她的男友们会送她礼物。
喜欢圣诞节还有另一个原因，一个我们都应该要去牢记的原因。即圣诞节代表同胞爱的时节。在圣诞佳节，我们多想想自己的同胞，彼此友爱，因为此节庆的精神而对彼此宽宏、亲切。这是一个很好的态度，我们也觉得这样会更好。如果我们整年都能保有这种精神，会有多么神奇。
再一次祝大家圣诞快乐！

appeal v.有吸引力
brotherhood n.同胞之爱
miraculous a.神奇的
