Part 1 Introduction
商务引见或问候同样可以用于日常的非商务情景，比如在正式场合致辞。然而反过来却不行——非正式的问候通常不符合商务场合。
1st time greetings:
How are you? / How do you do? Happy to meet you. / Nice to meet you. / Pleased to meet you. / Glad to meet you. / It’s a pleasure to meet you. I’m excited to meet you. / I’m delighted to meet you (more commonly used by women)
2nd time greetings:
How are you? / Good to see you again. / Great to see you again. / How are you doing? / How’s everything? / How’s it going?
1st person introductions:
Hi, I’m… / Hello, my name is…
3rd person introductions:
Let me introduce you to … / I’d like to introduce you to… / I’d like you to meet… / This is… (usually used to introduce peers, subordinates, or casual acquaintances)
Part 2 Usage
1.下面是有人向你问候或是介绍你时的回答用语：
How are you?
I’m good/I’m fine, thank you.
I’m happy to meet you.
I’m glad/happy to meet you too.
It’s a pleasure to meet you.
The pleasure’s all mine.
How are you doing?
I’m doing fine/well/very well, thank you.
2.下面这些说法不适合用在大多数商务场合，因为感情色彩太浓了：
highly, extremely, exceedingly, greatly, overjoyed, ecstatic, wonderful, thrilled, charmed, elated, enchanted, lovely
3.下面这些表达显得多余或太过华丽：
on cloud nine, tickled pink, in seventh heaven, cool, groovy, fantastic（小编注：on cloud nine, tickled pink, in seventh heaven都是表示非常高兴的意思，这里都是英语俗语的表达）
4.下面这些说法表现得不够积极，缺少自信：
Fair, so so, all right, okay/OK
