Good morning, everyone. This morning President Lee has asked you to gather here, so that we can have a special occasion to recognize some of our emplyees for their outstanding performance in the past year.

Based on careful consideration and evaluation¹ of performances of all the employees, the selection committee has reached the following decision: the three recipients³ of the outstanding Performance Award for this year are Mr. BorNan Zhang... Mr. Jun-Fan Cao... and Ms. Sheng ye. Each recipient² will be presented with a cash award of($50,000) together with a certificate. Let us proceed to the presentation of awards by President Lee.

Needless to say, this year's recipients deserve this award for their dedication⁴ and accomplishments⁵. Also, I would like to emphasize that every one of you who wasn't chosen today has a good chance of winning this honor. It takes a lot of hard work and dedication, but you can do it, if you try hard enough. At this time I would like to close the meeting by saying that I wish you all the best of luck.

公布得奖名单时，如果以从容不迫乃至稍为卖点关子的语气来进行，现场气氛即可为之高涨。其次，得奖名单的决定勿以个人名义行之，以免遭受非议。结束之前，可别忘了对未受表彰的大多数同仁表示激励之意
