1、第九讲,英文会议纪要 Minutes,1,General Introduction,会议有各种各样的，如：委员会会议，董事会会议，全体员工会议等，有些是比较正式的会议，由专人主持会议，会议中由一名懂财务或法律的主任秘书记录讨论过的事项及决定，然后再由其秘书根据记录整理打印成文，印发给各位与会者及相关人员，这就是会议纪要(Minutes)。会议纪要不必要记下发言人的每个字、每句话，只需要概括摘要会议内容及结果。会议纪要有其特定格式，语言和措辞也有其特点。,2,一、语言与措辞,会议纪要的语言与措辞有三个特点： 1. 语气要正式； 2. 动词一般采用被动式； 3. 措辞尽量采用常用词。 词汇的选择对

Mr. * proposed a salary cut.(这种写法会遭人注意或受到攻击，即使在会议上通过了，也是集体或多数人的意见，记录的也只是结果。 F. 态度 措辞常常能反映人际关系。纪要中对上级、对同行、对同事以

4、及对下级所用的语气和态度是绝然不同的。对上级用尊敬、对同事同行用礼貌、对下级用权威命令式语气。这种语气差别主要体现在动词上：,5,对上级 对下级 could be is should be is would be will might/may be will seems to be is looks as if is appears is almost decided decided about certain certain,6,二、会议纪要常用表达法 1. 记录委员会听取了某报告或建议： The committee heard/noted/recognized/recorded that
