A farewell speech Ladies and Gentlemen, The time has come for you to leave for Guangzhou, the final leg of your visit to China. It’s a pity that you can not stay in Shanghai any longer. Allow me, then, to take this opportunity to say something by way of a farewell. First of all, I wish to thank you all for the cooperation and support you have given us in the past two and a half days. You have kept good time on all occasions, which made things a lot easier for Ms.Lin and I. You have been very attentive when we had something to tell you. Also, you have been kind enough to offer us suggestions on how to be better tour guides. I’d like to add that you are the best group we’ve ever been with. Two days ago, we met as strangers; today, we bid farewell to each other as friends. A Chinese saying goes, “A good friend from afar brings a distant land closer.”（海内存知己，天涯若比邻） I hope you’ll take back happy memories of your trip to China, including your two-and-a-half-day visit to Shanghai. You have been visiting this country and you have been talking to her people, which will surely bring about better understanding and closer relations between our two countries and two peoples. As you have probably observed, Shanghai is developing very quickly. If you come back in the future, the city may have changed beyond recognition. Meanwhile, I will continue my humble job as a tour guide. I hope to see you again in the future and to be your guide. Please enjoy your flight to Guangzhou. Once again, thank you for your cooperation and support. Bon voyage! attentive [?tentiv] adj. 留意的，注意的afar [?fɑ:] adv. 遥远地；在远处[leɡ] n 腿，后肢袜统；靴统一段旅程[bid] vt. 投标；出价；吩咐；表示I’m terribly sorry to see you go.
