这会儿正在看第83届奥斯卡颁奖礼直播,发现获奖者的获奖感言真得是五花八门。有的妙语连珠,有的洋相百出,有的语无伦次,有的感人至深。奥斯卡获奖感言也是不错的英语学习材料。
下面是我很早以前收集的一篇奥斯卡获奖者的致谢辞,极具平易英语特色。它同时也是网络上被频繁转发的一篇,堪称“表达感谢”之典范。另外,附上本届奥斯卡女主角娜塔莉·波特曼的获奖感言,和大家一起分享:
I'm very grateful to receive this award for "best actress". I can't begin to tell you how much I appreciate this great honor.
能够获此“最佳女主角”奖,我非常感激。我现在无法表达我是多ô珍惜这个伟大的奖项。
There are many people I'd like to thank. First of all, I want to thank my parents for bringing me into this world. I also want to express my gratitude to all of my teachers over the years, but especially to my acting teacher, Jim Jones, who taught me everything I know. I also want to thank my husband, for his understanding and kindness. And finally, I want to express my appreciation to all of my friends for their support, especially to Martin Miller, for being there when I needed him.
我想感谢的人很多。首先,我想感谢我的父母把我带到这个世界上。另外,我还想对这ô多年来教过我的老师们表达谢意,尤其要感谢我的表演老师吉姆·琼斯,他教会了我所知道的一切。我还要感谢我的丈夫对我的理解与关怀。最后,我想感谢我所有的朋友们,感谢他们对我的支持,特别要感谢马丁·米勒,ÿ当我需要他时,他总在我身边。
This award means a great deal to me. Words can't express how honored I feel at this moment. I will remember this night for the rest of my life! Thank you very much!
这个奖项对我来说意义重大。我感到万分荣幸,任何言辞都不能表达我此刻的心情。这一晚我将永生难忘!非常感谢!
