Ladies and gentlemen,

The time has come for you to leave for Chongqing,the final leg of your visit to China.It’s a pity that you cannot stay in Chengdu any longer.Allow me,then,to take this opportunity to say something by way of a farewell.

attentive 体贴的，留心的

e.g.The hotel staff are friendly and attentive.

First of all,thank you all for the cooperation and support you have given us in the past four and a half days.You have kept good time on all occasions,which made things much more easier to me.You have been very attentive when I had something to tell you.Also,you have been kind enough to offer us suggestions on how to be better tour guides.I’d like to add that you are the best group we’ve ever been with.

Three days ago,we met as strangers; today,we bid farewell to each other as friends.A Chinese saying goes,“A good friend from afar brings a distant land closer.” I hope you’ll take back happy memories of your trip to China,including your three-anda-half-day visit to Chongqing.

During your stay in Sichuan,you have visited a lot of tourist sites.As you have probably observed,Sichuan has so many interesting places to visit,while you have just visited a few.So you must have a reason to come back.

We are living in a world with diversity of cultures and languages.Cultural exchanges and mutual understanding are essential to a better world,a world of peace and love.You have been visiting this country and talking to the people,which will surely bring about better understanding and closer relations between us.Meanwhile,I will continue my job as a tour guide.I hope to see you again in the future and to be your guide.

Please enjoy your trip to Chongqing.

Once again,thank you for your cooperation and support.

Wish you a pleasant journey.
