长难句：

If you are part of the group which you are addressing, you will be in a position to know the experiences and problems which are common to all of you and it’ll be appropriate for you to make a passing remark about the inedible canteen food or the chairman’s notorious bad taste in ties.

如果你是你对之致辞的人群的一员，你就能了解你们共同的经历和困难，从而妥当地揶揄一下难吃的午饭快餐或总裁臭名昭著的领带品位。
