2016年诺贝尔奖揭晓仪式即将进入尾声，

只差文学奖获奖名单还未公布，

在此我们先回顾一下目前诺贝尔奖的获奖情况。

作为一名理科学沫，看到这些科学类奖项获奖原因的

最大感受就是不明觉厉！

衷心感谢这些伟大的科学先驱们

为全世界、全人类做出的贡献！

那今天呢，我们重点要说说诺贝尔和平奖获奖者…

Excuse me？为什么不是中国男足？

Just kidding！诺贝尔和平奖获奖者是胡安·曼努埃尔·桑托斯·卡尔德龙（Juan Manuel Santos Calderón），哥伦比亚记者、经济学家、政治家，2010年当选为哥伦比亚总统，2014年获得连任。

成功没有偶然，桑托斯可是妥妥的学霸啊！围观其学习生涯，早年就读于私立学校。

16岁前往卡塔赫纳帕迪利亚海军学院学习并在海军服役；

18岁从海军学院毕业；

20岁退伍，后前往美国堪萨斯大学、英国伦敦政治经济学院、哈佛大学学习；

22岁毕业于堪萨斯大学经济和企业管理系；

24岁获伦敦政治经济学院硕士学位；

30岁获得哈佛大学公共管理学硕士学位！

浑身散发着名校的光环啊有木有！所以，虽然哥伦比亚的官方语言是西班牙语，但是桑总统的英语也是杠杠的哈。

下面我们就来看看通知桑托斯获奖时的电话采访记录，

可以感受到他的心情那是相当地鸡冻，

措辞也非常值得借鉴。

快跟着总统学起来，雅思口语还怕拿不到高分吗？！

敲黑板，划重点啊！

Telephone interview with Juan Manuel Santos following the announcement of the 2016 Nobel Peace Prize.

The interviewer is Adam Smith, Chief Scientific Officer of Nobel Media.

（JMS=Juan ManuelSantos；AS=Adam Smith）

JMS: Hello.

AS:Good morning President Santos. My name is Adam Smith, representing Nobelprize.org, the official website of the Nobel Prize in Stockholm. On behalf of all here we would like to congratulate you on the award of the Nobel Peace Prize.

使用场景：口语考试开始

注意句型，可以用于考试开场的自我介绍。

例如：My name is …， studying/majoring in…, 后面再具体介绍一下你的学校或专业就可以啦。

JMS: Thank you so much, thank you so much. I receive this with great emotion, and this is something that will forever be important for my country and for the people who have suffered with the war, especially the victims. And this is a great, great recognition for my country and with all humbleness I receive it. I am terribly grateful.

使用场景：口语Part 2常见提示问题 “How did you feel …”

那么这时怎样表达你泛滥的情感呢？就用with greatemotion! 这个短语不仅适用于描述获得什么荣誉时的感受，可灵活用于多个话题哦。

AS: Thank you.The Nobel Committee have been explicit in their official statement in stating that the award is meant also to pay tribute to the Colombian people. I imagine that is something you would echo.

JMS: Of course,of course. The Colombian people and especially the victims, is something forus very important and I receive this award in their name; the Colombian people who have suffered so much with this war, 52 years of war. And especially the victims, the millions of victims that have suffered with the war that we are on the verge of ending.

使用场景：口语Part 3常见提问“Do you think … is important? ”

如果问到关于重要性的问题，就可以先套用上面的句型，作为回答的总起句。

例如：Sure! The…and especially … (这里是缩小范围给出一个具体的例子),is something (for us) very important.

AS: And what message do you hope the award will send?

JMS:The message is we have to persevere until we reach the end, we reach the end of this war. We are very, very close. We just need to push a bit further,to persevere, and this is going to be a great stimulus to reach that end, and to start the construction of peace in Colombia. This is something thatall the Colombian people will receive with emotion and especially the victims will be very happy because I think it’s in their name that this award is given.

使用场景：口语Part 2/3

注意句型，明明可以用简单句，但总统偏偏要用华丽丽的从句，这样就起到了强调的作用，也显得句型多样，大家学起来啊！此外这个句型还可用于Part2或Part3总结陈述。

AS:Given all the obstacles on the road to peace, may I just ask what keeps you going in your personal determination to achieve a peaceful end.

使用场景：口语Part 2/3

注意句型，这个Given用得好哇，可以用于Part2描述某事件发生的背景条件，也可以用于Part3回答某社会现象的背景信息。 

JMS:Well, it’s simply a matter of believing in a cause and there is no better cause for any society, for any country, than living in Peace. Something that unfortunately Colombians have not been able to have for three generations. I think this is the moment, the conditions are right and we just simply have to persevere. And this has been my strength, what has given me the stimulus to persevere,the good causes. This is the best cause that any person can try to achieve,peace for his country.

使用场景：口语Part 3常见提问“How do you think about … ? ”

如果考官要你谈谈对某事的看法或观点，你就可以云淡风轻地先抛出一句 “Well, it’s simply a matter of …（指出问题的核心）”，然后再侃侃道来啦。

AS: Thank you.And lastly, news of your Nobel Prize will be broadcast around the world today.Is there anything that you’d like to ask people to do to help you in your quest for a peaceful end to Colombia’s civil war?

JMS:Thank you. Simply to say that we are very, very close to achieving peace.I think the other group that we are fighting today, we’re very close also to having peace with this other group. The two groups that we are negotiating with will receive this as a stimulus from the whole world that we have to reach an agreement very soon. We reached an agreement with the first group, these cond group we're very close. Simply that we have to continue until we reach the end.

使用场景：口语Part 2

如何描述 “将某事/物作为一种激励”？可以使用receive … as a stimulus这个表达。使用话题如：描述一个获奖经历、有意义的事件、得到的礼物等等。

AS:And people around the world who are also hoping for this peaceful end,can they do anything to help you?

JMS:Well, the international community has been so supportive. To continue the support and to continue to say that the whole world expects the Colombian people to reach, and especially the parties involved, to reach an agreement very soon. We are now … Also there are some people who have not been supporting the government in this peace process. We are talking to them, as a matter offact we started talks with them just a couple of days ago and I hope that they understand how important to also contribute to support this process because the peace would be much stronger and much more durable if it is supported by every single Colombian.

AS:Thank you very much indeed. Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us and taking the time to speak with us, and once again may we offer our congratulations to you all and to the Colombian people.

JMS:Thank you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart and in the name of all the Colombians, especially the victims. Thank you very, very much.
