  That wraps up the last item on the agenda. Before we close, are there any questions?

  Fine. In summary, I think we agree that this quarter's domestic sales figures show a marked trend in microwave sales. Sam, I'd like you to follow up on that, please. Let's see where this is heading. Jane, thank you for the comprehensive PR status report. I understand there are still a few problems to be worked out, but we all trust in your ability. Ladies and gentlemen, the new design is satisfactory. Let's keep Action ahead of the game.  

  Finally, I appreciate your comments and suggestions about the Canadian sales outlook. This is our first opportunity to promote our products in North America, so we certainly want to cover every detail.

  Well, then, that covers everything. I make a motion to close the third quarterly meeting of Action Appliances. Is there a second?

  句型总结   ●  讨论结束

  1. That wraps up the last item on the agenda.

  2. That takes care of the last order of business.

  3. That concludes the final order of business.

  主席首先应宣布讨论已经结束,之后再作结语。"wrap up"与"conclude"的意思相同,表示‘结束'。"take care of"在此有‘完成'之意。

  ●  总结重点

  1. In summary, I think we agree that this quarter's domestic sales figures show a marked trend in microwave sales.

  2. Overall, I think we are in agreement about the third quarter's sales figures that show a marked trend in microwave sales.

  3. To repeat, we agree that the microwave sales figures are showing a marked trend.

  宣布讨论结束之后,主持人应总结会议的讨论结果或要点。"I think we agree..."是一个的间接句法,婉转地询问其它人的意见;而"in summary" 、"overall"或"to repeat"是作摘要的实用词汇,通常置于句首。

  ●  感谢与会者

  1. Finally, I appreciate your comments and suggestions about the Canadian sales outlook.

  2. And lastly, thank you for your comments and suggestions about the Canadian sales outlook.

  3. In conclusion, I welcome your comments and suggestions about the sales outlook for Canada.

  做过要点总结后,主席可以感谢与会者的建议和参与。用"finally" 、"lastly"或"in conclusion"来承接上文,亦表示这是谈话的最后一段了。并以"appreciate" ,"thank you"这些字眼表达谢意。

  提议散会

  1. I make a motion to close the third quarterly meeting of Action Appliances. Is there a second?

  2. I'd like to make a motion to conclude the third quarterly meeting of Action Appliances. Is there a second?

  3. I move that we close this quarterly meeting. Do I have a second?

  最后主席应提出散会的动议,并要求台下的人附议,若有人附议,即可进行表决,决定散会与否。
