Subject:Just a suggestion
Dear Tom,
You did a great job with your presentation yesterday. Your visuals were especially effective;however, I would like to make one suggestion.A few of your jokes were inappropriate to your audience.Though seemingly funny, off-color humor can quickly alienate people.I would eliminate that kind of humor when addressing a business gathering.There are enough“clean”jokes left to spice up a presentation that do not risk offending your audience.
Hope you don't mind some friendly advice.
Yours,
Richard Wu
親愛的湯姆:
你昨天的演示報告做得很好。你的視像資料非常有效果,但是,我想提一點兒建議,你有幾處笑料做得不太適合聽眾。雖然聽起來很好笑,但是庸俗的玩笑很快就會使人反感。當(dāng)我在商務(wù)聚會的場合講話時,我是不會采用這種幽默方式的。除去這幾處,你報告中其余的那些“凈口”笑料也足夠給演示報告增添趣味,而且不會冒得罪聽眾的風(fēng)險。
希望你不介意這些善意的忠告。
