附：本届外语节开幕词

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls,

Good morning!

It’s our great pleasure to have the Ninth Foreign Language Festival of The Foreign Language School affiliated to Beijiing Foreign Studies University in this beautiful spring.

In order to promote quality education, deepen Curriculum Reform, and create a better environment for our students to learn foreign languages, the Foreign Language Festival is held every year to offer a platform for the students to practice foreign languages in everyday life, and show their abilities in various ways.

This year the Festival will last for a month. With the joint effort and preparation of the teachers and students, we will hold different kinds of English activities during this Festival, such as Foreign Language Star Competition, Emblem design competition, English writing competition, English spelling Competition, English Speech Contest, English Drama Contest,……

The festival will provide with a stage to show your talents as well as opportunities to practice what you have learned in class.

My dear students, the Foreign Language Festival has been our carnival of foreign language learning and become a traditional event of our school culture. Your wonderful singing, performing, smiling and laughing in the past Festival are still echoing in my mind!

I firmly believe that this year’s Foreign Language Festival will be more fascinating!

Finally, I would like to wish the 9th Foreign Language Festival a great success and I hope you will enjoy yourselves!

Thank you!
