记得第一次听老韩说演讲，是在他的“国际演讲家”的课程里。那个时候，老韩教的是如何用英文感谢他人，如何在公众场合对他人表达自己的敬意和感谢。
下面这两篇短文，都是史上最经典的表达感谢的文字，请大家一定要认真领悟，并且将其中的文字超右脑，彻底变成口语表达的秘密武器。
奥斯卡颁奖典礼致辞
对自己的亲人朋友和合作伙伴表达感谢，是奥斯卡颁奖的重头戏。获奖者的感言，也是最佳的语言学习材料。这篇奥斯卡颁奖致辞，是“如何表达感谢”中的典范。我的一位学生曾经和我说，学会了这一篇获奖感言，无论在什么场合表达感谢，都可以很轻易的脱口而出了。
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.
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.
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.
参考译文：
获此“最佳女主角”奖的荣誉，我深表感谢。这种感激之情实在无法用语言来表达。
我想感谢很多人。首先，我想感谢我的'父母把我带到这个世界上。另外，我还想对这么多年来教过我的老师说声：“谢谢”，尤其要感谢我的表演老师吉姆-琼斯，他教会了我所知道的每一件事。我要感谢我的丈夫对我的理解与支持。最后，我想感谢所有支持过我的朋友，特别感谢马丁-米勒，每当我需要他时，他总在我身边。
这个奖对我来说意义重大。任何话语也表达不了此时我所感到的万分荣幸。我今生将永远记住今晚的美好时刻！非常感谢！

Dear Kim,
Tonight’s victory in Indiana was close, and a margin that narrow means just one thing: every single thing you did to help us win in Indiana helped make the difference.
Every call you made, every friend you spoke to about our campaign, every dollar you contributed made tonight’s victory possible. And I couldn’t be more thankful for your hard work.
Every time we’ve celebrated a victory, we’ve celebrated it together. And tonight is no exception. This victory is your victory, this campaign is your campaign, and your support has been the difference between winning and losing.
Thank you so much for making this campaign possible. Let’s keep making history together.
Sincerely,
