本报告分为

Using this phrase is like building a Lego set. First, you start with 本报告分为. Then, you usually add a number. Finally, you list the parts. For example, 本报告分为三个部分. You can also list the specific topics directly. Use it at the very beginning of a speech. Use it in the first paragraph of a document. It keeps your listeners from getting lost in your data.

This is for your most serious moments. Use it during a big presentation at work. Use it when writing a thesis for university. It works great in formal emails to clients. If you want to impress a professor, start here. It shows you have a logical mind. It makes your complex ideas feel manageable and organized. It is the gold standard for formal structure.

Don’t use this at a karaoke bar. Don’t use it when telling a casual joke. If you say 本报告分为 to your mom, she might laugh. It is way too stiff for casual hanging out. Avoid it in text messages to your crush. Unless you are joking about your "love report," of course. It sounds like a robot in a casual setting. Keep it for the office.

Chinese culture deeply values "Mianzi" or face. Being organized gives you a lot of face. It shows you respect the listener’s time. Historically, Chinese scholars loved highly structured essays. This phrase carries that tradition into the modern office. It is the verbal equivalent of a well-pressed suit. It signals that the information is important and well-considered.

You can swap 报告 for other nouns. Try 本研究 for a research project. Use 本计划 for a business plan. If you want to be even more formal, use 划分为. If you are just listing things, 包括 works too. But 分为 sounds much more structural. It implies a complete division of the whole into logical parts.
