耶魯大學以悠久的發(fā)展歷史、獨特的辦學風格、卓著的學術(shù)成就聞名于世。如果時光能夠倒流幾十年，我真希望成為你們中的一員。耶魯大學校訓強調(diào)追求光明和真理，這符合人類進步的法則，也符合每個有志青年的心愿。

Coming to the Yale campus with its distinctive academic flavor and looking at the eager young faces in the audience, I cannot but recall my great experience studying at Qinghua University in Beijing 40 years ago.Indeed, what happens during one's school years will influence his whole life.I still benefit greatly from the instruction of my teachers and my interaction with other students.Yale is renowned for its long history, unique way of teaching and excellence in academic pursuit.If time could go back several decades, I would really like to be a student of Yale just like you.Yale's motto, “Light and Truth”, which is a calling for human progress, represents the aspiration of every motivated young man and woman.07-3 中國嬴得2010年世界博覽會的舉辦權(quán)，靠的是國際社會對中國改革開放的支持和信心。這次博覽會將是自1851年在英國倫敦第一次舉辦以來，首次在發(fā)展中國家舉辦的世界博覽會，它表達了全世界人民對中國未來發(fā)展的期望。

2010年上海世博會的主題是“城市，讓生活更美好”。未來的城市生活是全球關(guān)注的話題，與每一個國家及其人民息息相關(guān)。第一次以“城市”作為主題的2010世界博覽會將吸引全球約200個國家和國際組織參與盛會，國內(nèi)外參訪人數(shù)預(yù)計達7000萬。

China owes its successful bid for the World Exposition in 2010 to the international community’s support for and confidence in its reform and opening-up.The World Exposition will be the first one in a developing country since it was first held in 1851 in London, UK, which gives expression to the expectations the world’s people place on China’s future development.The theme of World Expo 2010 Shanghai is “Better City, Better Life.” The prospect of future urban life, a subject of global interest, concerns every nation and its people, Being the first World Exposition on the theme of city, Expo 2010 will attract about 200 nations and international organizations to participate in it, with an estimate of 70 million visitors from home and abroad.07-9 中國堅定不移地走和平發(fā)展道路，是基于中國國情的必然選擇。1840年鴉片戰(zhàn)爭以后的100多年里，中國受盡了列強的欺辱。消除戰(zhàn)爭，實現(xiàn)和平，建設(shè)獨立富強、民生幸福的國家，是近代以來中國人民孜孜以求的奮斗目標。今天的中國雖然取得了巨大的發(fā)展成就，但人口多，底子薄，發(fā)展不平衡，仍然是世界上最大的發(fā)展中國家。推動經(jīng)濟社會發(fā)展，不斷改善人民生活始終是中國的中心任務(wù)。中國人民最需要、最珍愛和平的國際環(huán)境，愿盡自己所能，為推動各國共同發(fā)展作出積極貢獻。

It is an inevitable choice based on its national conditions that China unswervingly takes the road of peaceful development During the 100 add years following the Opium War in 1840.China suffered untold /utter/ deep humiliation from the big powers.Ever since the advent of modern times, it has become the assiduously sought goal of the Chinese people to eliminate war, safeguard / maintain peace, and build a country of independence and prosperity in which the people can lead a happy life.Although it has made enormous achievements in development, China, with a large population, a weak economic foundation and unbalanced development, is still the largest developing country in the world.It is the central task of China to promote economic and social development and improve its people’s life.What the Chinese people need and cherish most is a peaceful international environment.We are willing to do our best to make energetic contributions for the common development of all countries.08-3 我國首次月球探測工程的成功,實現(xiàn)了中華民族的千年奔月夢想,開啟了中國人走向深空探索宇宙奧秘的時代,標志著我國已經(jīng)進入世界具有深空探測能力的國家行列。這是我國推進自主創(chuàng)新、建設(shè)創(chuàng)新型國家取得的又一標志性成果，是中華民族在攀登世界科技高峰征程上實現(xiàn)的又一歷史性跨越，是中華民族為人類和平開發(fā)利用外層空間作出的又一重大貢獻。全體中華兒女都為我們偉大祖國取得的這一輝煌成就感到驕傲和自豪

The success of the first stage of China’s lunar probe program has not only realized the centuries-old dream of the Chinese nation to fly to the moon, but also ushered in a new era for the Chinese people to explore the mysteries of deep space, indicating that our country has joined the countries with the capability to explore outer space.// As a fresh landmark achievement in our endeavor to promote homegrown innovation to make our country more innovative, this successful lunar probe marks a historical breakthrough on the part of the Chinese nation to scale the world heights of science and technology.By so doing, the Chinese nation has made another great contribution to the peaceful development and use of the outer space for humankind.// All the Chinese people feel proud of such glorious achievements made by our great motherland.08-9 據(jù)消息靈通人士透露，今年春節(jié)前，家樂福才與新大新發(fā)生”第一次親密接觸”，其中廣州市政府無疑起了”紅娘”的作用。短短幾個月時間，雙方”情投意合”。外界關(guān)心的是：家樂福到底看中新大新什么地方？

對此，新大新總經(jīng)理何先生沒有作出正面的回應(yīng)，只是籠統(tǒng)地陳述在廣州的百貨業(yè)中新大新有自己獨特的一面。據(jù)何先生透露，這次新大新出資持有新組建的公司35%的股份，家樂福占65%：”這是按照國家有關(guān)部門政策，即中方持股不得少于35%的規(guī)定厘定的”。As disclosed by a well-informed source, the “first intimate contact” between Carrefour and Xindaxin(XDX)was not conducted until the dawn of this year’s Spring Festival, with Guangzhou municipal government, not surprisingly, serving as the “matchmaker”.The contact quickly developed into “affinity” between the two parties within a short period of a few months.What is XDX’s appeal to Carrefour? This question is now the concern of the public.Mr.He, general manager of XDX, did not elaborate on direct response to this question.He stressed XDX’s “uniqueness” in Guangzhou’s retailing industry but with no specific details.As disclosed by Mr.He, XDX will hold 35% of the new joint venture’s shares, while Carrefour holding the rest 65%, which, is “in compliance with the policies decreed by state authorities concerned, i.e.Chinese companies should hold no less than 35% shares of a JV”.09-3 鐘表上的秒針一下一下地移動，每移動一下就是表示我們的壽命已經(jīng)縮短了一部分。再看看墻上掛著的可以一張張撕下的日歷，每天撕下一張就是表示我們的壽命又縮短了一天。因為時間即生命。

沒有人不愛惜他的生命，但很少人珍視他的時間。如果想在有生之年做一點什么事，學一點什么學問，充實自己，幫助別人，使生命成為有意義，不虛此生，那么就不可浪費光陰。這個道理人人都懂，可是很少人能積極不懈地善為利用他的時間。

Every tick-tock of the timepiece is a reminder that a portion of our life is lost.Every wall calendar page torn off marks a day taken away from our lifespan.Time is life.While life is cherished by almost all, time is not.To make the most out of our precious life, we must seek knowledge, we must try to be helpful to others, we must constantly add meaning to life by not wasting time.This is not difficult of a concept to grasp, but it is, unfortunately, a concept rarely put to good practice.09-9 有兩個大款附庸風雅，參加一個冷餐會，與會者自然不乏真正的名流學者。席間，一個學者與其中的大款甲閑聊，話題不知怎么扯到莎士比亞身上。學者問大款甲：“先生是否對莎士比亞最感興趣？”大款甲頓了頓，隨即正色說：“相比之下，還是威士忌合我口味?！边@時，大家都暗自竊笑。大款乙也看出了苗頭，悻悻然走開。在回來的小車上，大款乙教訓大款甲說：“你真一點都不懂，莎士比亞是飲料，你怎么把它當洋酒了！”

Two big shots attended a buffet reception, trying to pose as lovers of culture, for the participants included some real scholars of distinction.During the reception, a scholar chatted with Tycoon A and somehow the topic shifted to Shakespeare.The scholar asked, “Are you most interested in Shakespeare?” The big shot paused and announced with a severe countenance: “In comparison, whiskey is more to my taste.” Hearing that, all the listeners laughed up their sleeves.Tycoon B saw the straw in the wind and left resentfully.On their way home in the car, Tycoon B lectured Tycoon A: “ How could you be that ignorant!Shakespeare is a beverage, and you are foolish enough to take that as an imported spirit!”

10-3 2010年翩然而至，全球24個時區(qū)的萬千鐘聲，此起彼伏，宣告在這人類新千年中，一個10年代的終結(jié)，又是另一個10年代的開始。在開局的10年中，中國經(jīng)濟在前9年連續(xù)9年保持著9%以上的增長。最后一年，雖受國際金融風暴影響，但依然能保持8%的高增長。中國猶如中流砥柱，力挽狂瀾，使全球目光，再次聚焦于東方。一年多的實踐，終使曙光再現(xiàn)。全人類定能以集體的智慧，攻堅克難，度過難關(guān)，必將是柳暗花明又一村的新局面。With the approaching of 2010, the ringing of bells in 24 time zones around the globe echoes one after another, announcing the lapse of the first decade in the new millennium and the start of another 10 years.Over the past ten years, China’s economy maintained a successive 9% increase for nine years since the beginning of the 21st century and still a 8% growth in the last year of the past decade, albeit influenced by global financial storm.Functioning like a mainstay that makes vigorous endeavors to turn the tide, China, once again, draws global attraction to the East.A silver lining is emerging again after a year-round practice.As long as all the mankind conquer adversities, override difficulties with collective wisdom, there is bound to be a way out.10-9 說起上海老城，總會讓人和古老傳統(tǒng)的東西聯(lián)系起來，比如明代的豫園和清代的城隍廟。上海建城有700多年歷史，但最具人文發(fā)展歷史的時期是開埠后的150年間，諸如華洋雜居、石庫門、老字號等等，都發(fā)生在開埠后的上海。

流傳于老城內(nèi)外的民間文化，豐富多彩。著名的“上海老城人物風情畫卷”生動地描繪了上海老城市民的生活百態(tài)。上海老城是歷史文明與現(xiàn)代文明的兼容并蓄，無論上海城市發(fā)展如何日新月異，她仍將記錄著上海城市發(fā)展的歷史華章。

The old town of Shanghai is always associated with something ancient and traditional, like the Yuyuan Garden in the Ming Dynasty and Chenghuangmiao(the Town God’s Temple or the City God Temple)in the Qing Dynasty.Despite a history of more than 700 years, the 150 years since it opened to foreign traders has witnessed the greatest humane development in Shanghai.In that period we have seen a Shanghai co-inhabited by Chinese locals and foreign nationals, the formation of the Shanghai Painting School, the building of Shikumen(stone-framed gate)houses, the development of time-honored firms or shops, and so on and so forth.Shanghai’s old town and beyond then featured a colorful folk culture, with all aspects of the life of local residents vividly depicted in the famous “The Painting Scroll of Local Residents in Shanghai’s Old Town”.Though Shanghai advances with each passing day, its old town, a harmonious combination of ancient and modern civilization, continues to be a glorious chapter in the history of the development of Shanghai city.11-3 豫園是上海著名的古典園林，已有400多年的歷史?；▓@設(shè)計獨特，具有明清兩代南方的建筑藝術(shù)的風格。園內(nèi)共有40余景，景色自然迷人，亭臺樓閣、假山池塘和諧對稱、協(xié)調(diào)均衡，其布局之精致自古聞名江南。豫園原為明代一位大官的私家花園，始建于1559年，直到20年后才建成。此后曾幾經(jīng)變遷，屢遭摧殘。所幸的是，從1949年上海解放時，園內(nèi)的主要景點尚完好無損。從1956年開始，豫園經(jīng)過多次修繕，重現(xiàn)其昔日光彩。

Renowned as a classical garden in Shanghai, the Yuyuan Garden dates back over 400 years.Its unique design is characterized by the styles of both the Ming and Qing Dynasties, which features the ancient southern architectures.The garden is dotted with 40 attractive scenic spots fascinating the tourists with its pavilions, pagodas, ponds and rockeries.The layout of the garden, which is harmoniously coordinated, has been earning the fame in South China for its delicacy since ancient times.The garden used to be the private garden of a prestigious government official in the Ming Dynasty.Founded in 1559, its construction was not completed until 20 years later.The vicissitudes and ravages ensued.Fortunately, the major scenic spots in the garden remained intact when Shanghai was liberated in 1949.The Yuyuan Garden managed to attain its rejuvenation after several renovations.

第三篇：中級口譯翻譯總結(jié)

幾千年來我們中國人一直視筷子為一種可以將飯從碗中逐口送入口中的最簡單同時也是最有效的工具。早在周朝時期，筷子便被人們用來夾取葷、蔬菜，而米飯在那時則用手來取食。//全國各地的筷子大小基本一樣，而所用的材料的種類則各有不同，所選材料有竹子、木材、漆器、玉石、象牙、塑料、呂、銀、金等。特長的竹筷通常用于廚房中。//中國人使用筷子的方法很有藝術(shù)性，各人有各人的方法，就好像簽名一樣，不盡一致。中國人一般都能隨心所欲的用筷子夾起一粒米飯，一粒豌豆，一只滑溜溜的蘑菇或海參。// 使用筷子時，要把一雙筷子夾在大拇指和食指之間。要點是讓其中的一根筷子保持不動，活動另一根筷子，以便能像鉗子一樣夾取食物。//

For thousands of years we Chinese have always regarded chopsticks the simplest possible and the most efficient tool for transporting bite-sized morsels of food form a bowl to the mouth.As early as in the Zhou Dynasty, chopsticks were used for picking up meat and vegetables, while hands were used for rice.// Chopsticks, which are roughly uniform in size throughout China, can be made of a variety of materials, including bamboo, wood, lacquer, jade, ivory, plastic, aluminum, silver and gold.Special long bamboo chopsticks are generally used in the kitchen.// The way we Chinese handle our chopsticks is quite artistic and varied from person to person like one，s signature.An average Chinese can very easily pick up a single tiny grain of rice, or a tiny piece of peas, or a slippery button mushroom or sea cucumber.// When using chopsticks, one should place both sticks between the thumb and forefinger.The point is to keep one stick still and move the other so as to make them wok like pincers.//

我們都知道信息存儲、傳輸和處理是提高社會整體發(fā)展水平的最重要的保障條件之一，也是世界各國高技術(shù)競爭的焦點之一。但并非每一個人都知道，世界上最重要的信息是人類基因組提供的信息。//人類基因組蘊含著人類生、老、病、死的絕大多數(shù)遺傳信息，破譯這些信息將會在疾病的診斷、新藥物的研制、新療法的探索等領(lǐng)域引發(fā)一場革命。//一些科學家認為，破譯人類遺傳密碼的重要性不亞于人類登月的“阿波羅計劃”。人類基因組圖譜及初步分析結(jié)果的公布，對生物科學和生物技術(shù)的發(fā)展起著重要的推動作用。// 我們確信的是，35 億年前高度復(fù)雜的分子 DNA 就出現(xiàn)了。DNA 是地球上所有生命的基礎(chǔ)，它有著像螺旋式樓梯一樣的雙螺旋結(jié)構(gòu)。//

We all know that information storage, transmission and processing constitute some of the most important guarantee conditions for enhancing the level of overall social development, as well as a focal point in the competition of high technologies between various countries.But not everyone realizes that the most significant information reservoir is no other than the human genome.// The human genome contains most of the hereditary information related to the birth, aging, diseases and death of humankind.Its decoding will bring about a revolution to the diagnosis of diseases, to the development of new medicines and to the exploration of new therapies.// Some scientists believe the work to decipher the human genetic code is no less important than the Apollo moon landing program.The publication of the map and preliminary conclusion of the human genome played an important role in promoting the development of life science and biotechnology.// What we do know is that by three and a half billion years ago the highly complicated molecule DNA had emerged.DNA is the basis of all life on earth.It has a double helix structure, like a spiral staircase.//

漢語常被認為是一種非常古老的語言。從某種意義上說，這種說法不免失之偏頗。人類所有的語言都可追溯到朦朧的史前時期，但目前我們還無法確定這些語言是否都同宗同源。//五千年前華夏祖先說漢語的方法同英語人士的祖先說英語的方式大致相似。而從另一種意義上說，漢語確實也是一種很古老的語言。今天所存留下來的最早的漢字已有近四千年的歷史。// 這些文字均為甲骨雕文。大部分銘文為神諭圣旨，內(nèi)容大都與政治事件和宗教活動有關(guān)，有些則是關(guān)于天氣和戰(zhàn)爭的記錄。// 漢語有豐富的古代文字作品，源遠流長，遠非其他一種語言的文字可與之媲美。一些最古老的文字屬象形文字。//

Chinese is often termed a very old language.In a sense such a statement is misleading.All human languages go back to the dim uncertainty of prehistory, and at present we have no way of knowing for sure whether or not they can all be traced back to the same root.// Five thousand years ago the ancestors of Chinese people spoke an early form of Chinese language in much the same way that the ancestors of English-speaking people were using an early form of the English language.In a sense, however, Chinese is indeed a very old language.The earliest written forms of Chinese in existence today date back nearly 4,000 years.// These writings are incisions on bones and tortoise shell.Most of the inscriptions are oracular, dealing mostly with political and religious events, or with weather or warfare.// Chinese has an abundance of ancient writings that reach back continuously in time further than the writings of any other language in the world.Some of the earliest written Chinese characters were quite pictographic.// 國際貿(mào)易的基本原則是平等互利，各國追求各自的利益是正常的，出現(xiàn)一些摩擦和糾紛也是不可避免的。關(guān)鍵要以冷靜而明智的態(tài)度正確對待和處理摩擦和糾紛。// 就中美貿(mào)易而言，互利共贏的經(jīng)貿(mào)關(guān)系給兩國人民帶來了實實在在的經(jīng)濟利益。今天，美國在華投資設(shè)立的企業(yè)已超過 4 萬家，投資額達 450 億美元。// 美國 500 強企業(yè)有 400 多家進入中國，大多數(shù)企業(yè)獲利豐厚。與此同時，在美國市場上，許多中國商品受到美國消費者的青睞。中國在美國投資設(shè)立的企業(yè)已超過 1000 家。// 我們可以預(yù)見，中美貿(mào)易摩擦將隨著經(jīng)貿(mào)關(guān)系的深化而凸顯，但是中美經(jīng)貿(mào)合作的總體發(fā)展是不可逆轉(zhuǎn)的。主要有兩個原因，其一：中美貿(mào)易具有很大互補性。其二：中國產(chǎn)品具有明顯的勞動力成本優(yōu)勢。//

Equality and mutual benefit is the fundamental principle of international trade.Therefore, it is normal that countries will seek to protect their own interests, which may lead to trade frictions and disputes.The key lies in how to cope with these issues correctly in a cool and wise manner.// As for China-US trade, mutually beneficial and win-win trade and economic ties have delivered tangible economic benefits to the two peoples.Now, with over 40,000 U.S.-invested enterprises, the total investment in china stands at $45 billion.// Of the top 500 U.S companies, more than 400 have their business in china, and most of them are making handsome profit.At the same time, many Chinese commodities have become favored choices of American consumers.Meanwhile, the number of Chinese-invested enterprises in the United Sates has surpassed 1,000.// We predict that trade disputes between china and the United States will become more acute along with the further development in bilateral trade and economic cooperation.The overall development in bilateral trade and economic cooperation is, however, irreversible.There are two factors contribute to this trend.Firstly, the Sino-U.S.economic and trade relations enjoy complementarities in vast fields.Secondly, china has an outstanding labor cost advantage.// 我贊同許多東亞學者的觀點，東方文明可以醫(yī)治盛行于西方世界的一些頑疾。西方世界個人自由主義泛濫導(dǎo)致了極端個人主義、性關(guān)系混亂以及過度暴力行為，對此我們不能視而不見。// 相反，東方社會的自我約束力，集體責任感以及溫厚儒雅的傳統(tǒng)倒可以消除西方社會的許多惡疾。// 在這個信息時代，世界已縮小成一個地球村。這個地球村里，不再有什么涇渭分明的東方世界和西方世界，我們是生活在同一個社區(qū)里的鄰里。// 因此，我們彼此之間無須沖突。我們之間的關(guān)系應(yīng)該是一種友好合作，平等互補的關(guān)系。我們應(yīng)該相互理解，相互學習，和睦共處。//

I share the same view with many East Asian scholars that the Oriental civilization can heal some of the prevailing, stubborn Western ills.We should not turn a blind eye to the fact that individual freedom has gone overboard in the West, resulting in extreme individualism, sexual promiscuity and excessive use of violence.// By contrast, self-discipline, corporate responsibility and the pacific tradition of East Asia can offset many Western vices.// At this age of information, the world has shrunk as a global village in which there will be no clear-cut worlds of the East and the West any more, but a world of one community with neighboring families.// Therefore, we do not necessarily have to come into clash with each other.Our relationship is one of friendly cooperation, equality and mutual complementarity and therefore, we should understand and learn from each other, and live in harmony.//

武術(shù)在我國源遠流長，是中華民族傳統(tǒng)文化的瑰寶。我們知道，一個民族的優(yōu)秀文化遺產(chǎn)，不僅僅屬于一個民族，它會逐漸傳播到世界而成為人類的共同財富。// 為了更好的推廣武術(shù)運動，使其與奧運項目接軌，中國武協(xié)和國際武聯(lián)做了大量的艱苦卓絕的工作?，F(xiàn)在武術(shù)運動已被列為一種具有與保齡球運動和國際標準舞同等地位的奧運表演項目。//武術(shù)的蓬勃發(fā)展，除得益于其項目本身的吸引力之外，早期移居海外的一代武術(shù)大師功不可沒。//老一代武術(shù)家在海外播種下了武術(shù)的種子，使武術(shù)這門既可以自衛(wèi)又可以健身的運動很快就在新的土地上扎下了根。今天高超的武術(shù)大師已遍布世界各地，武術(shù)愛好者也與日俱增。//

Wushu, or Chinese martial art, can be traced back to ancient times.It is a gem of Chinese traditional culture.As we all know, the fine culture of a nation doesn’t belong to the nation alone and it will be spread to the rest of the world and shared by all humanity.// The Chinese Wushu Association and International Wushu Federation(IWUF)have been working very hard to popularize wushu and make the Chinese martial art closer to the Olympic Movement.Wushu was accepted to join bowling and international standard dance as an Olympic demonstration event.// The booming of wushu is attributed not only to the attractiveness of the sport but also to emigrant Chinese wushu masters over the years.// Martial artists of the older generations have sown wushu seeds in foreign countries.Weshu, which can be used as self defense and can keep practitioners fit and strong, soom became popular on new lands.Today sperb wushu masters are active all over the world, and amateurs are on the increase with each passing day.為了切實保護兒童權(quán)益，中國的立法、司法、政府各有關(guān)部門以及社會團體都建立了相應(yīng)的機制，以監(jiān)督、實施和促進保護兒童事業(yè)的健康發(fā)展。// 中國政府動員社會采取多種方式關(guān)心和幫助殘疾兒童的成長，大力弘揚殘疾兒童自強不息的精神，倡導(dǎo)團結(jié)、友愛、互助的道德風尚。// 中華民族素有“攜幼”，“愛幼”的傳統(tǒng)美德，中國古語“有無有以及人之幼”了流傳至今。// 我們要在全社會倡導(dǎo)樹立“愛護兒童、教育兒童、為兒童做表率、為兒童辦實事”的公民意識，并努力為兒童事業(yè)的發(fā)展創(chuàng)造良好的社會條件。//

To effectively protect children’s rights and interests, china’s legislation, judicial and government departments concerned as well as non-governmental organizations have set up corresponding mechanisms to supervise, facilitate and promote the healthy development of the work on protecting children.// The Chinese government has done a great deal to mobilize various circles in society to care for, in various manners , the development of disabled children, to greatly encourage the spirit of unceasing self-improvement among physically disadvantaged children and to advocate the valued social virtues of unity, friendship and mutual aid.// The Chinese nation has long cultivated the traditional virtues of “ bring up the young” and caring for the young”.An old Chinese saying that “l(fā)ove our children and love others’ children in the same manner” is still very popular.// We should urge the society at large to raise the awareness of importance of “protecting and educating children, and setting a good example and doing practical thing for children”.We will spare no efforts to create favorable social conditions for the progress of child development programs.//

過去 10年，海平面升高和森林看法的速度都是前所未有的；生態(tài)惡化、物種滅絕、臭氧層被破壞、溫室效應(yīng)、酸雨等一系列環(huán)境問題已經(jīng)嚴重影響到人類的生存環(huán)境。// 環(huán)境惡化造成的問題之一就是缺水。目前全世界 40%以上的人口，即 20 多億人，面臨缺水問題。據(jù)預(yù)測，未來 25 年全球人口將有 60 億增長到 80 億，環(huán)境保護面臨更大的壓力。// 中國作為一個發(fā)展中國家，面臨著發(fā)展經(jīng)濟和保護環(huán)境的雙重任務(wù)。從國情出發(fā)，中國在全面推進現(xiàn)代化的過程中，將環(huán)境保護視為一項基本國策。// 眾所周知，對生態(tài)環(huán)境和生物多樣性的保護是環(huán)保工作的重點。我國野生動植物物種豐富，僅脊椎動物就有 6000 多種左右，高等植物 3 萬多種。//

Sea level rose and forest were destroyed at an unprecedented rate during the last decade.A series of environmental problems such s the deterioration of ecosystem, the extinction of bio-species, damage to the ozone layer, the green-house effect, acid rain, have posed a serious threat to human living conditions.// Environmental crisis leads to one of the serious problems, namely, water shortage.Presently, more than 40% of the world’s population, more than 2 billion people, now face water shortage.It is predicted hat with the global population expected to increase from six billion to eight billion over the next 25 years, more pressure on environmental protection stress is expected.// As a developing country, china is confronted with the dual task of developing the economy and protecting the environment.Proceeding from its national conditions, china has, in the process of promoting its overall modernization program, made environmental protection one of its basic state policies.// It is known to all that protection of the ecological environment and biodiversity is the focal point of environmental protection work.China is rich in wildlife species.There are about 6,000 vertebrates alone and 30,000 species of higher plants.//

改革開放 30 年來，隨著中國逐漸崛起成為政治經(jīng)濟強國，海外人士學習漢語的現(xiàn)象與日俱增，海外孔子學院也成了人們學習中國語言和中國文化的首選之地。// 通過學習漢語，他們對這個和自己文化大相徑庭的古老文明產(chǎn)生了濃厚的興趣，而且有機會了解中國的哲學、藝術(shù)、醫(yī)學、飲食文化，親身體驗這個文明古國的風采。// 作為第二文化，中國文化也豐富了他們的生活和世界觀?？梢哉f，這個潮流方興未艾。越來越多的學習漢語的美國人除了對中國菜肴贊不絕口之外，也在嘗試針灸，草藥和武術(shù)。//他們也看功夫電影，學習東方時裝潮流和手工藝，不知不覺的在日常生活中談及中國的點心，人參、銀杏，烏龍茶等。目前在美國最熱門的中國文化是道家學說和有著神秘色彩的風水學。

As china is rising as a political and economic world power, thanks to its three-decade reform and opening up, more and more people in overseas countries start to learn Chinese and turn to a Confucius Institute in their own countries as their first choice learning Chinese language and Chinese culture.// During the learning process, the learners concurrently develop their interest in this ancient land, whose civilization is so vastly different from theirs.And the learners have opportunities to learn about Chinese philosophy, art, architecture, medicine and catering culture and experience first-hand the splendors of this venerable civilization.// As the second culture, Chinese culture has enriched the life and world outlook of the learners.This trend, so to speak, is gathering momentum and is there to stay.Apart from their love for Chinese cuisine, more and more American learners of Chinese language are turning to Chinese acupuncture, herbal medicines, martial arts.// They are also interested in kongfu films, fashions and crafts.Seemingly outlandish words such as dimsum, ginseng, gingko, oolong cha have crept into their everyday language.The latest Chinese cultural icons to make its impact there are Taoism, and ancient school of thought, and fengshui, an ancient art of placement.// 中國國際出版集團是中國最大的、最權(quán)威的外語出版發(fā)行單位，其前身是中央人民政府新聞出版署國際新聞局。// 我集團堅持“讓中國走向世界，讓世界了解中國”的出版原則，全心致力于中國外語教育與研究事業(yè)的發(fā)展，全心致力于中外文化交流事業(yè)的拓展。// 為了加強對出版人才隊伍的建設(shè)，為了滿足日益增長的特殊出版業(yè)務(wù)的需要，我集團每年都要選派一些青年員工到國內(nèi)外知名高等學府和研究機構(gòu)進修，// 根據(jù)我們的發(fā)展戰(zhàn)略，我們會將前進的步伐邁出國界走向世界，瞄準海外讀者群，這一戰(zhàn)略已取得了良好的開局。//

The China International Publishing Group is the largest and the most authoritative foreign language publishing and distribution establishment, its predecessor being the International Press Bureau of the Central People,s Government Press and Publication Administration.// Adhering to the publishing philosophy of “assisting China’s march to the world and facilitating world’s understanding of China”, the Group commits itself entirely to promoting foreign language education and research in China and advancing cultural exchanges between China and foreign countries.// In order to build up a strong team of publishing staff, as well as to meet the growing need of more technically demanding business, the Group makes it a rule that young staff be selected and sent to noted universities and research institutions, both domestic and overseas, for further studies.// As is clearly spelled out in our new development strategy, we will go beyond our national boundaries and wedge ourselves into the world circulation market, aiming at the international readership.Our initial efforts have been very rewarding.//

香港中文大學，簡稱“中大”，成立于1963年。中大是一所研究型綜合大學，以“結(jié)合傳統(tǒng)與現(xiàn)代，融匯中國與西方”為創(chuàng)校使命。//40多年來，中大一直致力于弘揚中華傳統(tǒng)文化，堅持雙語教育，并推行獨特的書院制度，在香港教育界卓然而立。中大校園占地 134 公頃，是世界上最美麗的校園之一。//中大的師生來自世界各地。有教職員工 5200多人，近萬名本科生、約2000多名研究生，其中約2500多人來自45個不同的國家和地區(qū)。//中大實行靈活的學分制，不僅有助于培養(yǎng)有專有博的人才，而且還賦予學生更大的學習自主權(quán)。中大的多元教育有助于充分發(fā)揮每一個學生的潛能。//

The Chinese University of Hong Kong, CUHK for short, was founded in 1963.It is a research-oriented comprehensive university with a mission to combine tradition with modernity and bring together China and the West.//For more than 40 years, we have been distinguished from other local universities by virtue of our rich Chinese cultural heritage, bilingual education, and our unique college system.CUHK’s 134-hectare campus is one of the most beautiful campuses in the world.//CUHK’ s faculty and students come from all corners of the world.It has more than 5200 staff members,approximately 10,000 undergraduates, and 2000 postgraduate students.Of these students, some 2,500 are from 45 countries and regions outside Hong Kong.//The flexible credit unit system allows a balance between depth with breadth, and a high degree of free choice of students in designing their own learning.The multi-faceted education at CUHK helps to bring out the best in every student.//

春節(jié)期間的娛樂活動多種多樣，豐富多彩。耍龍燈和舞獅子是春節(jié)期間的傳統(tǒng)項目。還有一種至今仍受人歡迎的傳統(tǒng)表演活動，叫踩高蹺。//現(xiàn)在，隨著生活水平的不斷提高，人們采用了新的方式慶祝新年。但不管慶祝方式怎么變，春節(jié)的精華不會變，那就是為了祈求新年吉祥如意。//家家戶戶都會打掃的干干凈凈，門上都會貼上對聯(lián)，人人都會穿上新衣裳，拿出最精美的食物，團聚在一起，互道吉利，表示祝賀。//最重要的是，春節(jié)是一個合家歡聚的日子，出門在外的人總要想方設(shè)法在除夕夜到來之前趕回家，吃上一年中最重要的一段飯——“團圓飯”。//

The recreational activities during the Spring Festival are varied and colorful.The Dagon Dance and Lion Dance are traditionally performed during the festival.Walking on stilts is another traditional performance event popular in china.//Nowadays, with the improvement of living standards, people have taken up new ways to celebrate the New Year.No matter what change there might be, the highlights of the Spring Festival will remain the same: hoping for a propitious and happy new year.//Each family will clean up the house and put up an antithetical couplet on each side of the door.Dressed up in their best, people will get together, treat each other to the most delicious foods and exchange auspicious greetings.//Most important of all, the Spring Festival is the occasion for a family reunion.People away from home for various reasons will always try their best to come back before the New Year’s Eve for the family reunion dinner, the most important meal of the year.//

我們社會主義市場經(jīng)濟體制的建立和發(fā)展，要求我們改革和完善社會福利保障體制，從而對社會服務(wù)提出了更高的要求。//隨著政府職能的轉(zhuǎn)變，原來由政府包攬的許多社會服務(wù)工作，有相當一部分將逐步轉(zhuǎn)移到社會團體和民間組織。//一方面，政府的宏觀管理責任將會變得更加重大。另一方面，社會團體和民間組織有必要參與更多的社區(qū)服務(wù)工作。//這樣就提出一個課題：政府和社會團體如何密切合作，如何分工協(xié)作，更好地推進社區(qū)服務(wù)事業(yè)。//

The establishment and development of china’s socialist market economy requires the reform and improvement in our soial welfare and security system, which in turn places higher expectations on the work of community service.//With the transformation of governmental functions, much of the work involving social services that was initially undertaken by the government will have to be transferred gradually to social groups and non-governmental organizations.// On the one hand, the government will shoulder great responsibilities in its macro-management;and on the other hand, social groups and non-governmental organizations will need to involve themselves more in community service.// Consequently, there has emerged an issue which concerns the way of a close collaboration and the division of responsibilities between the government and social groups, in order to further the development of community service 美國人強調(diào)效率、競爭和獨創(chuàng)性，而中國人則將嚴謹規(guī)劃放在首位，鼓勵團隊成員之間的密切合作和無私奉獻。//在美國學校，討論享有至高無上的地位，討論是課堂教學的主旋律；而中國教師喜歡講課，喜歡考試，編寫千篇一律的標準教案，培養(yǎng)整齊劃一的高材生。//美國人的政治觀，經(jīng)濟觀以及社會觀的核心是個人道德自治觀。中國傳統(tǒng)的思想體系是以儒家學說為基礎(chǔ)的，這種思想強調(diào)整體和諧。//現(xiàn)在，中美聯(lián)系比以往更加緊密，中國人學英語，玩保齡球，吃肯德基，美國人學漢語，練功夫，吃北京烤鴨，《泰坦尼克》駛進中國，《牡丹亭》也在百老匯上演。//

American people emphasize efficiency, competition and originality while Chinese people give priority to careful planning and encourage close cooperation and altruistic dedication among team members.//In American schools, discussion is given top priority while Chinese teachers like to lecture in class,and a lot of them are obsessed with examinations.They write consistent and standardized teaching plans, and are happy with bringing up identical and standardized talents.//Central to American political, economic and social thought is the concept of individual moral autonomy.Traditional Chinese philosophical systems are based on Confucianism, which sings high praises for communal harmony.//Nowadays, the relation of China and America become closer than ever.Chinese learn English, play bowling, enjoy KFC, while Americans learn Chinese, exercise Kung Fu, like Peking Duck.And Titanic sailed into China, while The Peony Pavilion has been performed on Broadway.// 上海菜系是中國最年輕的地方菜系，通常被成為“本幫菜”，有著400多年的歷史。同中國其他菜系一樣，“本幫菜”具有“色，香，味”三大要素。//上海菜的特點是注重調(diào)料的使用，食物的質(zhì)地和菜的原汁原味。其中最著名的有特色點心“南翔小籠”和特色菜“松鼠鮭魚”。//“南翔小籠”是豬肉餡，個小味美，皮薄汁醇。“松鼠鮭魚”色澤黃亮，形如松鼠，外皮脆而內(nèi)肉嫩，湯汁酸甜適口。//在品嘗過“松鼠鮭魚”之后，我們常常驚訝于“松鼠”的形狀，覺得在三大評價標準上在添加“形”這個標準才更合適。//

每年春季，數(shù)以萬計的中外客商云集申城，參加一年一度的華東出口品交易會。上海各類商品在這里與全國各地一比短長。上海的優(yōu)勢在于科技實力，因此高技術(shù)產(chǎn)口的出口應(yīng)成為上海外貿(mào)出口增長的“排頭兵”。

著名物理學家楊振寧教授曾說：“高科技戰(zhàn)場是中國超越發(fā)達國家的主戰(zhàn)場，也是最后的戰(zhàn)場?！弊甙l(fā)展高科技貿(mào)易之路，是歷史的必然，也是末來的需要。

Every spring hundreds of thousands of domestic and foreign businessmen swarm into Shanghai to attend the annual East China Export Commodity Trade Fair.Here, all kinds of goods from Shanghai compete with the goods from other places in China.The advantage of Shanghai lies in its advanced scientific and technological strength, therefore the export of high-tech products should take the lead in increasing Shanghai’s foreign trade and export.Professor Yang Zhenning, a famous physicist, once said, “The high-tech battlefield is the main and the last battlefield for China to overtake the developed countries.” It is not only indispensable in history, but also necessary in the future to develop by way of promoting high-tech trade.98年3月

深圳作為全國最早的特區(qū)，與內(nèi)地經(jīng)濟往來極為密切，特別是在香港回歸祖國以后，人員往來大為增加，深圳機場是全國十大機場之一。由于深圳地處亞熱帶，與北方溫差較大，從北方來的旅客，為了適應(yīng)深圳的氣候，走下飛機的第一件大事就是脫掉身上過多過厚的衣服。

深圳機場為方便旅客，設(shè)置了4 間更衣室。室內(nèi)設(shè)備齊全。旅客可以輕松愉快的環(huán)境中更換衣服，整理儀容，給前來迎接的親朋好友留下良好的第一印象。

As the nation’s earliest established special economic zone, Shenzhen has very close economic contacts with the innerland provinces.Especially after the returning of Hongkong to the motherland, the number of passengers coming and leaving Shenzhen is increasing rapidly.Shenzhen Airport claims to be one of the ten largest airports in the country.Because Shenzhen is located in the subtropical zone, there exists quite big temperature difference between the city and northern areas in China.So the passengers from the north are always anxious to take off their overdressed warm clothes for the first important thing to do after landing in order to adapt themselves to the local temperature.For the convenience of the passengers, Shenzhen Airport Administration set up 4 well-furnished changerooms.The passengers can change their clothes, tidy themselves up in the easy and pleasant surroundings, so as to leave a good first impression on the relatives and friends who come to meet them at the airport.99年3月

澳門，南海之濱一顆閃耀的明珠，以她的風采、滄桑和輝煌，更以1999年12月20日這個不同尋常的日子，吸引著全世界的目光。

自古以來，澳門就是中國的領(lǐng)土，中華兒女世世代代在這里繁衍生息。

早在80年代，世紀偉人鄧小平就提出了“一國兩制”的偉大構(gòu)想。1997年7月1日，中華人民共和國恢復(fù)對香港行使主權(quán)。今年，澳門又將徹底結(jié)束外國管治，回到祖國懷抱，這是中華民族的又一件歷史盛事，它標志著中國人民向著祖國統(tǒng)一的偉大目標又邁出了重大的步。澳門的明天一定會更好美好。

Macao, a sparking pearl in the coast of China, catches the world’s attention for her charm, her experiences of various changes and her bright achievements, and moreover, for the unusual date of December 20, 1999.Macao has been the territory of China ever since the ancient times.The Chinese people have been living and working there for generations.Early in the 80s, Mr.Deng Xiaoping, one of the great figures of the century, put forward the bold concept of “One Country, Two Systems”.On July 1, 1997, the People’s Republic of China resumed her sovereignty over Hong Kong.This year, Macao will completely get rid of the foreign regime and return to motherland.This is another great historical event for the Chinese people.It symbolizes another big step for the Chinese people on their way towards the great goal of the country’s reunification.Macao’s future is sure to be even brighter.99年9月

Pudong International Airport, now under construction, is located on the south bank of the Yangtze(Changjiang)estuary, covering an area of 32 square kilometres.To meet the demands of Shanghai's social and economic development for aviation services, the maximum design capacity of the airport is 80 million passengers and 5 million tons of freight annually.After the completion of the whole airport project, green space will account for over 50% of the area.Puuong International Airport is a gate open to the sky and a link connecting different parts of the world.As the 21st century is coming very near, man, nature, environment and construction will certainly develop in a harmonious and sustained way.00年3月

中華民族歷來愛好自由與和平。中國人始終希望天下太平，希望同各國人民友好相處。中國人民在近代飽受戰(zhàn)爭和侵略的痛苦，更深感自由與和平的珍貴。任何一個國家建設(shè)和發(fā)展，都需要一個和平穩(wěn)定的國際國內(nèi)環(huán)境。任何一個國家和民族的自由，都是一切個人自由的前提和基礎(chǔ)。我們希望各國人民都生活在沒有戰(zhàn)爭和暴力的世界里，希望各國人民都能享有不被人壓迫、歧視和欺凌的自由。

中國政府在宣布實行和平統(tǒng)一的方針時，是基于一個前提，即當時的臺灣當局堅持世界上只有一個中國、臺灣是中國的一部分。同時中國政府考慮到美國政府承認了世界上只有一個中國、臺灣是中國的一部分、中華人民共和國政府是中國的唯一合法政府。

中國政府在實行和平統(tǒng)一方針的同時始終表明，以何種方式解決臺灣問題是中國的內(nèi)政，并無義務(wù)承諾放棄使用武力。

The declaration by the Chinese government to implement the policy of peaceful reunification was based on the prerequisite that the then Taiwan authorities insisted that there is only on China in the world and that Taiwan is a part of China.At the same time, the Chinese government took into consideration the fact that the US government recognized that there is only one China in the world, that Taiwan is a part of China and that the Government of the People’s Republic of China is the only legitimate government of China.While implementing the policy of peaceful reunification, the Chinese government has all along made it clear that it is an internal affair of China to decide on what method to use to resolve the Taiwan issue and that we have no obligation to commit ourselves to rule out the use of force.01年3月

據(jù)調(diào)查，我國有40％的青少年除了課本外不看其他書籍。對此，我感到極為震驚。雖然有關(guān)人士聲稱調(diào)查具有科學性，我仍不敢相信。不過盡管懷疑，事實卻是，越來越多的年輕人在業(yè)余時間已不再讀書，而是看電視、跳舞、打電子游戲機，或者“侃大山”。高爾基說過：“書籍是人類進步的階梯?！北娝苤瑫侨祟愔腔鄣慕Y(jié)晶。盡管現(xiàn)代傳媒（如電視、計算機）在信息的傳播速度上有許多優(yōu)勢，但到目前為止，還沒有哪一種在傳播知識的深度方面能取代書籍。According to a survey, about 40% of our country’s youth do not read any books other than their textbooks.I am shocked at the result.I remain suspicious of the survey, though the people concerned claim it to be scientific.Despite my suspicion, the fact is that more and more young people, instead of reading, spend their spare time watching TV, going to dance parties, playing video games or chitchatting.Gorgy once said:“Books are steps toward human progress.”As we all know, books is a crystallization of human wisdom.Although modern media such as TV and computers enjoy advantages in the speed of information dissemination, so far none of them can replace books in respect of the depth of knowledge being spread.01年9月

我總以為，在中國效率最高的會議要數(shù)學校召集的家長會。家長會完全符合“廉政建設(shè)”的要求，與會的家長絕不會像參加行業(yè)、單位的一些會議，先看看會議地點是不是設(shè)在風景旅游區(qū)，會后發(fā)不發(fā)紀念品之類，然后方?jīng)Q定是否參加。其他會議都難得準時，惟有家長會絕對正點召開。在家長會上，家長們個個全神貫注地傾聽、記錄，生怕漏掉一點內(nèi)容。不少會議都可列入可開可不開之列，但對于學校和家長而言，家長會則是必不可少的。

I always believe that the most efficient meeting in China is the parents’ meeting called by the school.The parents’ meeting, is in full conformity with the requirements for the “building of an honest and clean government”.With respect to meetings organized by a certain trade or the unit where one works, the person wants to know whether the venue of a meeting is in a scenic area frequented by tourists and whether gifts of souvenirs will be handed out after the meeting before he decides whether to go or not to go.But for the parents’ meeting, nobody will ever think of that.While other meetings are rarely convened on time, the parents’ meeting invariably starts with punctuality.At the parents’ meeting, every parent listens and takes notes with rapt attention lest he or she might miss anything.For many meetings, it does not really matter whether they are to be held or not, but to the school and the parents, the parents’ meeting is absolutely necessary.4 02年9月

到2007年，上海市人均國內(nèi)生產(chǎn)總值預(yù)計將達到7500美元。這一目標的實現(xiàn)，最直接的應(yīng)該是老百姓住得更寬敞、更舒適了。因為從市民的“衣、食、住、行”消費來講，住房是一個重要因素，而且占了大頭。屆時，上海人均住房面積會大幅增加。除此之外，老百姓的服務(wù)性消費，如教育、信息、旅游等消費也會大量增長。用一句話來表述，那便是未來老百姓的生活會更好，那時的老百姓的生活將和中等發(fā)達國家的居民一樣。

The per capita GDP in Shanghai is expected to reach US $7500 by 2007.The common people should benefit most directly from the attainment of this goal.They will live more comfortably in bigger space.Among the basic necessities of life—food, clothing, shelter and transportation—housing is an important element, accounting for a big portion in the money they spend.In 2007, the average per capita living space in Shanghai will increase by a big margin.In addition, the common people’s spending on such services as education, information and traveling will grow substantially.To put it in a nutshell, in the future the common people will live a better life, a life of the same standard as enjoyed by those in the middle-ranking developed countries.03年3月

中國改革開放以來，國民經(jīng)濟年均增長速度達到9.7%。中國已經(jīng)發(fā)展成為一個全球極富吸引力的大市場。世界各國和地區(qū)不少有遠見卓識的企業(yè)家，都將目光投向了中國，投向了西部，并從投資活動中獲得了豐厚的回報。中國加入世貿(mào)組織后，外商參與中國西部開發(fā)的機會越來越多。西部大開發(fā)一定能成為溝通世界各國和中國的一座橋梁，促進中國和世界經(jīng)濟共同發(fā)展，共同繁榮。

經(jīng)過二十多年的快速發(fā)展，中國西部地區(qū)已奠定了一定的物質(zhì)技術(shù)基礎(chǔ)，社會保持穩(wěn)定，市場經(jīng)濟體制正在逐步建立和完善，為西部經(jīng)濟持續(xù)快速增長創(chuàng)造了有利的市場環(huán)境。中國政府堅持實行以擴大內(nèi)需為主的發(fā)展方針，并把擴大內(nèi)需與調(diào)整經(jīng)濟結(jié)構(gòu)，推動科技進步，促進對外開放結(jié)合起來。隨著西部大開發(fā)戰(zhàn)略的穩(wěn)步推進，西部地區(qū)的資源優(yōu)勢，經(jīng)濟優(yōu)勢將得到充分發(fā)揮，經(jīng)濟增長的質(zhì)量和水平將進一步提高。

Thanks to the rapid(economic)development in the past 20-plus years, a relatively solid foundation in terms of material wealth and technology was laid in the western region of China.With the society enjoying a rather satisfactory stability, and the market economy system being established and improved on a daily basis, providing a favourable market environment for the western region to maintain the sustained and rapid economic growth.While focusing on its policy of expanding the western region, the Chinese government also attaches rather great importance to the restructuring of the economy, the promotion of the scentific and technological development, the deepening of the opening-up policy as well.With the stable advance in the development of the western region, the advantages of the region in resources and economy will be given full play, thus further improving the quality and standard of the economic growth.04年3月

中華民族歷來珍惜和平。中國的崛起，是和平的崛起，是依靠自己力量來發(fā)展自己。中外關(guān)系中，我們一貫主張以鄰為伴、與人為善，同各國發(fā)展友好合作關(guān)系。

中國現(xiàn)在是、今后相當長時間內(nèi)仍將是一個發(fā)展中國家。中國有13億人口，這是最大的國情。中國國內(nèi)生產(chǎn)總值已居全球第六位，但人均水平卻排在第138位。我們還面臨不容忽視的失業(yè)、貧困和發(fā)展不平衡等問題。中國要趕上發(fā)達國家，還需要幾代人、十幾代人的艱辛努力。

The Chinese nation has always cherished peace.China’s rise, an achievement accomplished by our own efforts, symbolizes that peace has risen to the dominating position.In getting along with the foreign countries, we consistently adhere to the policy of making partnership and being friendly to the neighboring countries with an aim to seek a friendly cooperation with them.China is and will continue, in a quite long time, to be a developing country.China has a population of 1.3 billion, which is the most important part in our national conditions.It is then no doubt that China ranks 138th per capita while its GDP totals 6th globally.We are now still facing serious problems that we can’t avoid such as unemployment, poverty, and unbalanced regional development.To catch up with the developed countries, several, even dozens of generations’ efforts are still expected.04年9月

有人把香港說成是“文化沙漠”。實際上，香港有著其獨特的文化氛圍。在電影制作方面，香港名列世界前茅，其流行歌曲在全球華人中有著廣泛的影響，而且還有8所知名的大學。

這座城市特殊的歷史和地理因素造就了一種多樣化的文化。每年一度由政府主辦的藝術(shù)嘉年華為當?shù)厮囆g(shù)家展示其獨創(chuàng)性提供了一個廣闊的平臺，并鼓勵更多人參與文化藝術(shù)創(chuàng)作，為中國的文華繁榮作出了許多創(chuàng)新和突破。

中國有句古話：“相知無遠近，萬里尚為鄰”。中國與亞洲各國山水相連，共同鑄就了燦爛的亞洲文明；古老而美麗的“絲綢之路”，譜寫了中歐千年往來的美好篇章。中國與亞歐各國的互利合作正在步入一個全新的階段。中國已成為亞歐和世界經(jīng)濟發(fā)展中的積極力量，我們將堅定走和平發(fā)展的道路，致力于同亞歐各國發(fā)展富有活力和長期穩(wěn)定的全面合作關(guān)系，與亞歐各國相互支持，攜手前進，共創(chuàng)美好的未來。

In China, there is an old saying which goes like this, “Long distance never separates close friends.” A ready link connecting this country and many other ones, like the Silk Road, in Asia and Europe helps a lot in bringing about the splendid civilization in Asia and the frequent exchanges and communication between China and the Continent in the past years.Now, we are going a step further in our cooperation based on mutual benefits, enjoying a brand-new bilateral relation.China, a devoted part in promoting the economic development in the 2 continents, will keep her track on the road of peace and development.A corresponding effort made by this country in building a dynamic and long-term cooperation in all fields across Asia and Europe, together with all the other efforts from the 2 continents, will definitely contribute a big part in making the bright future.06年3月

上海是一座朝氣蓬勃、充滿活力、多姿多彩的國際大都市，改革開放以來，上海變化之大令世人矚目。經(jīng)濟高速發(fā)展，社會秩序穩(wěn)定，人民安居樂業(yè)，呈現(xiàn)出一片繁華氣象。

今天，盡管上海還有著不少色彩斑斕的過去可以留戀和回味，但城市日新月異的面貌卻使越來越多的世人折服。浦西展示了上海的輝煌歲月，浦東展現(xiàn)了上海的美好前景。上海就像一輪紅日，光芒四射，鮮艷奪目。上海的明天充滿希望。

進入耶魯大學的校園，看到莘莘學子青春洋溢的臉龐，呼吸著書香濃郁的空氣，我不由回想起40年前我在北京清華大學時的美好時光，老師們對我的教誨，同學們給我的啟發(fā)，我至今仍受用不盡。

耶魯大學以悠久的發(fā)展歷史、獨特的辦學風格、卓著的學術(shù)成就聞名于世。如果時光能夠倒流幾十年，我真希望成為你們中的一員。耶魯大學校訓強調(diào)追求光明和真理，這符合人類進步的法則，也符合每個有志青年的心愿。

Coming to the Yale campus with its distinctive academic flavor, and looking at the eager young faces in the audience, I cannot but recall my great experience studying at Qinghua University in Beijing 40 years ago.I still benefit greatly from the instruction and my interaction with other students.Yale is renowned for its long history, unique way of teaching and excellence in academic pursuit.If time could go back several decades, I would really like to be a student of Yale just like you.Yale's motto “Light and Truth,” which is a calling for human progress, represents the aspiration of every motivated young man and woman.07年3月

中國贏得 2010 年世界博覽會的舉辦權(quán)，靠的是國際社會對中國改革開放的支持和信心。這次博覽會將是自 1851 年在英國倫敦第一次舉辦以來，首次在發(fā)展中國家舉辦的世界博覽會，它表達了全世界人民對中國未來發(fā)展的期望。

2010 年上海世博會的主題是“城市，讓生活更美好?！蔽磥淼某鞘猩钍侨蜿P(guān)注的話題，與每一個國家及其人民息息相關(guān)。第一次以“城市”作為主題的 2010 世界博覽會將吸引全球約 200 個國家和國際組織參與盛會，國內(nèi)外參訪人數(shù)預(yù)計達 7000 萬。

China owes its successful bid for the World Exposition in 2010 to the international community’s support for and confidence in its reform and opening-up.The World Exposition will be the first one in a developing country since it was first held in 1851 in London, UK, which gives expression to the expectations the world’s people place on China’s future development.The theme of World Expo 2010 shanghai is “BetterCity, Better Life”.The prospect of future urban life, a subject of global interest, concerns every nation and its people.Being the first world Exposition on the theme of city, Expo 2010will attract about 200 nations and international organizations to participate in it, with an estimate of 70 million visitors from home and abroad.07年9月

中國堅定不移地走和平發(fā)展道路，是基于中國國情的必然選擇。1840年鴉片戰(zhàn)爭以后的100多年里，中國受盡了列強的欺辱。消除戰(zhàn)爭，實現(xiàn)和平，建設(shè)獨立富強、民生幸福的國家，是近代以來中國人民孜孜以求的奮斗目標。今天的中國雖然取得了巨大的發(fā)展成就，但人口多，底子薄，發(fā)展不平衡，仍然是世界上最大的發(fā)展中國家。推動經(jīng)濟社會發(fā)展，不斷改善人民生活始終是中國的中心任務(wù)。堅持走和平發(fā)展道路，是中國實現(xiàn)國家富強、人民幸福的必由之路。中國人民最需要、最珍愛和平的國際環(huán)境，愿盡自己所能，為推動各國共同發(fā)展作出積極貢獻。

China’s firm stand on peaceful development is only natural, given the country’s unique situation.In the ensuing 100 plus years after the Opium War of 1840, China suffered great humiliation at the hands of the world’s big powers.The Chinese people have, throughout the modern times, yearned and sought for a peaceful, independent, prosperous and happy life free from wars.Despite the tremendous growth we are witnessing in China today, the country is still faced with a large population, a weak economic foundation and rather uneven development.It is still, as it were, the largest developing country in the world.China’s major focus, therefore, is on socio-economic development and continued improvement of people’s livelihood.The only way to achieve prosperity for China and happiness for its people is by sticking to the path of peaceful development.The Chinese people will try their utmost to promote and contribute to common development among nations and, in order to do that, they need and cherish to the highest degree a peaceful international environment.08年9月

我國首次月球探測工程的成功，實現(xiàn)了中華民族的千年奔月夢想，并開始了中國人走向深空探索宇宙奧秘的時代，標志著我國已經(jīng)進入世界具有探測能力的國家行列。這是我國推進自主創(chuàng)新、建設(shè)創(chuàng)新型國家取得的又一標志性成果，是中華民族在攀登世界科技高峰征程上實現(xiàn)的又一歷史性跨越，是中華民族為人類和平并發(fā)利用外層空間作出的又一重大貢獻。全體中華兒女都為我們偉大祖國取得的這一輝煌成就感到驕傲和自豪！

據(jù)消息靈通人士透露，今年春節(jié)前，家樂福才與新大新發(fā)生“第一次親密接觸”，其中廣州市政府無疑起了“紅娘”的作用。短短幾個月時間，雙方“情投意合”。外界關(guān)心的是：家樂福到底看中新大新什么地方？

對此，新大新總經(jīng)理何先生沒有作出正面的回應(yīng)，只是籠統(tǒng)地陳述在廣州的百貨業(yè)中新大新有自己獨特的一面。據(jù)何先生透露，這次新大新出資持有新組建的公司35%的股份，家樂福占65%:“這是按照國家有關(guān)部門政策，即中方持股不得少于35%的規(guī)定厘定的”。

According to a well-informed source, before this year’s Spring Festival, Carrefour made its “first intimate contact” with Xindaxin company.Without doubt the Guangzhou Municipal Government served as the “matchmaker”.The two parties “had an affinity for each other” in only a few months.What on earth is Xindaxin’s appeal to Carrefour? It is of great concern to the outsiders / the public.Mr He, general manager of Xindaxin, instead of giving any positive response to this question, just made a general/ambiguous reply that Xindaxin boasts its uniqueness in the department stores industry in Guangzhou.Mr He disclosed that Xindaxin holds 35% of the shares of the newly-established company while Carrefour owns the other 65%: “which is in conformity with the policies of departments concerned, stipulating that the Chinese side must hold no less than 35% of the shares.”

鐘表上的秒針一下一下地移動，每移動一下就是表示我們的壽命已經(jīng)縮短了一部分。再看看墻上掛著的可以一張張撕下的日歷，每天撕下一張就是表示我們的壽命又縮短了一天。

因為時間即生命。沒有人不愛惜他的生命，但很少人珍視他的時間。如果想在有生之年做一點什么事，學一點什么學問，充實自己，幫助別人，使生命成為有意義，不虛此生，那么就不可浪費光陰。這個道理人人都懂，可是很少人能積極不懈地善為利用他的時間。

Our life is shortened by every tick of the second hand of the clock.Each page peeled away from the wall calendar marks a bygone day.Time is life, while life is cherished by everybody, but time, by few.How can we achieve something in our brief life? To learn some knowledge!To replenish ourselves!To help those in need!To add significance to our life!Time should not be squandered if we want to make our life meaningful(to get a lot out of our life).This principle is accepted by all, but wisely observed by very few.09年9月

有兩個大款附庸風 雅，參加一個冷餐會，與會者自然不乏真正的名流學者。席間，一個學者與其中的大款甲閑聊，話題不知怎么扯到莎士比亞身上。學者問大款甲：“先生是否對莎士 比亞最感興趣？”大款甲頓了頓，隨即正色說：“相比之下，還是威士忌合我口味。”這時，大家都暗自竊笑。大款乙也看出了苗頭，悻悻然走開。在回來的小車 上，大款乙教 訓大款甲說：“你真一點都不懂，莎士比亞是飲料，你怎么把它當洋酒了！”

Two big shots attended a buffet reception, trying to pose as lovers of culture, for the participants included some real scholars of distinction.During the reception, a scholar chatted with Tycoon A and somehow the topic shifted to Shakespeare.The scholar asked, “Are you most interested in Shakespeare?” The big shot paused and announced with a severe countenance: “In comparison, whiskey is more to my taste.” Hearing that, all the listeners laughed up their sleeves.Tycoon B saw the straw in the wind and left resentfully.On their way home in the car, Tycoon B lectured Tycoon A: “ How could you be that ignorant!Shakespeare is a beverage, and you are foolish enough to take that as an imported spirit!”

2010年翩然而至，全球24個時區(qū)的萬千鐘聲，此起彼伏，宣告在這人類新千年中，一個10年代的終結(jié)，又是另一個10年代的開始。在開局的10年中，中國經(jīng)濟在前9年連續(xù)9年保持著9%以上的增長。最后一年，雖受國際金融風暴影響，但依然能保持8%的高增長。

中國猶如中流砥柱，力挽狂瀾，使全球目光，再次聚焦于東方。一年多的實踐，終使曙光再現(xiàn)。全人類定能以集體的智慧，攻堅克難，度過難關(guān)，必將是柳暗花明又一村的新局面。

With the approaching of 2010, the ringing of bells in 24 time zones around the globe echoes one after another, announcing the lapse of the first decade in the new millennium and the start of another 10 years.Over the past ten years, China’s economy maintained a successive 9% increase for nine years since the beginning of the 21st century and still a 8% growth in the last year of the past decade, albeit influenced by global financial storm.Functioning like a mainstay that makes vigorous endeavors to turn the tide, China, once again, draws global attraction to the East.A silver lining is emerging again after a year-round practice.As long as all the mankind conquer adversities, override difficulties with collective wisdom, there is bound to be a way out.10年9月

說起上海老城，總會讓人和古老傳統(tǒng)的東西聯(lián)系起來，比如明代的豫園和清代的城隍廟。上海建城有700多年歷史，但最具人文發(fā)展歷史的時期是開埠后的150年間，諸如華洋雜居、石庫門、老字號等等，都發(fā)生在開埠后的上海。

流傳于老城內(nèi)外的民間文化，豐富多彩。著名的“上海老城人物風情畫卷”生動地描繪了上海老城市民的生活百態(tài)。上海老城市歷史文明與現(xiàn)代文明的兼容并蓄，無論上海城市發(fā)展如何日新月異，她仍將記錄著上海城市發(fā)展的歷史華章。

The old town of Shanghai, when it is mentioned, is always associated with the past and the tradition, something such as the Yuyuan Garden in the Ming Dynasty and the Town God’s Temple(or the City God Temple / Chenghuangmiao)in the Qing Dynasty.Despite a history of more than 700 years, it is the 150 years since its opening to foreign trades that enjoyed the most spelendid/ greatest humane development of Shanghai.During that period, scenes appeared such as the co-inhabitation of Chinese foreigners, the building of Shikumen, and the growth of time-honored firms.Various and colorful folk cultures have gained popularity in and out of Shanghai’s old town, which has been proved in the famous “The Painting Scroll of Local Residents in Shanghai’s Old Town”, a vivid depiction of the lives of local residents in every aspect.Despite the ever-changing advances of Shanghai, its old town, an inclusive combination of ancient and modern civilization, will still serve as a glorious chapter in the history of the development of Shanghai city.11年3月

豫園是上海著名的古典園林，已有400多年的歷史。花園設(shè)計獨特，具有明清兩代南方的建筑藝術(shù)的風格。園內(nèi)共有40余景，景色自然迷人，亭臺樓閣、假山池塘和諧對稱、協(xié)調(diào)均衡，其布局之精致自古聞名江南。

豫園原為明代一位大官的私家花園，始建于1559年，直到20年后才建成。此后曾幾經(jīng)變遷，屢遭摧殘。所幸的是，從1949年上海解放時，園內(nèi)的主要景點尚完好無損。從1956年開始，豫園經(jīng)過多次修繕，重現(xiàn)其昔日光彩。

The Yuyuan Garden is a renowned classical garden located in Shanghai that enjoys a history of over 400 years.With delicate design, it boasts the architectural style of the Ming and Qing Dynasties.40 attractive scenic spots dot the garden, including pavilions, pagodas, ponds and rockeries, with each adding radiance to one another.The Yuyuan Garden tops South China for its delicacy and elegance.The Garden was originally the private garden of a governor in the Ming Dynasty.Its initial construction started in 1559, but it was not completed until two decades later.The Garden was repeated destroyed under vicissitudes;fortunately, its major scenic spots remained intact in 1949 when Shanghai was liberated.The Garden regained its splendor after several renovations starting from 1956.11年9月

越來越多受英文教育的海外華人父母，已經(jīng)認識到孩子在掌握不可或缺的英文的同時，也通曉中文的重要性。中國的崛起，讓他們充分認識到孩子掌握雙語的好處——既能增加他們的就業(yè)機會，也能讓他們接觸和熟悉東西方兩種不同的文化。

這些人對中文的態(tài)度幾乎沒有完全改變。曾幾何時，他們還非常驕傲地宣稱自己只懂英文?，F(xiàn)在，他們已開始積極支持孩子學習中文和中國文化，而且還不時走訪中國，欣賞壯觀的自然風光，認識豐富的文化遺產(chǎn)。

An increasing number of English-educated Chinese parents overseas have come to the realization that while English learning is indispensable to their children, it is essential that their kids have a good command of Chinese.China’s rise has fully awakened their awareness of the fact that their kids can benefit from their bilingual ability which can not only enhance their competitiveness in the job market, but also facilitate their exposure to and familiarity with the two different cultures between the East and the West.They have hardly changed their attitudes towards Chinese.At one time they proudly declared that they knew English only.Now, they have begun to give full support to their kids learning Chinese and its culture, and they also make occasional visits to China, where they can enjoy its magnificent natural landscape and get to know its rich cultural heritage.12年3月

吸煙之危害，可謂大矣，其嚴重性是不能低估的。吸煙污染空氣，損害健康，使肺癌發(fā)病率大大增加。為了使各國人民關(guān)注煙草的盛行及預(yù)防吸煙導(dǎo)致的疾病和死亡，世界衛(wèi)生組織已將每年的5月31日定為“世界無煙日”。

癮君子們說，一天飯不吃可以，一個時辰不抽煙就難捱了，不能戒。只要真正意識到吸 煙有百害而無一利，于人于己都是一種禍害，就有可能下決心擺脫煙草的誘惑。戒煙貴在堅持，堅持下去就是收獲。

Smoking does great harm to human and its gravity should not be underestimated.Smoking pollutes air, damages health, and increases the incidence of lung cancer.To arouse the awareness about the prevalence of tobacco in all the countries and to prevent smoking-induced diseases and deaths, the WHO(World Health Organization)has defined May 31st in every year as World No-Tobacco Day.The tobacco addicts say that smoking is impossible to quit because they could do without meals in a day but would feel tortured without tobacco in two hours.However, when one realizes that smoking is harmful in many ways but beneficial in no way and that it is a curse to others as well as to he himself, he will be determined to resist the temptation of tobacco.To quit smoking requires persistence and so long as one persists, he’ll be rewarded.12年9月

近代以來，亞洲經(jīng)歷了曲折和艱難的發(fā)展歷程。亞洲人們?yōu)楦淖冏约旱拿\，始終以不屈的意志和艱辛的奮斗開辟前進道路。今天，人們所看到的亞洲發(fā)展成就，是勤勞智慧的亞洲人民不屈不撓、鍥而不舍奮斗的結(jié)果。

亞洲人民深知，世界上沒有放之四海而皆準的發(fā)展模式，也沒有一成不變的發(fā)展道路，亞洲人民勇于變革創(chuàng)新，不斷開拓進取，探索和開辟適應(yīng)時代潮流，符合自身實際的發(fā)展道路，為經(jīng)濟社會發(fā)展打開了廣闊前景。

In modern times, Asia experienced twists and turns in its development.To change their destiny, the people of Asia have been forging ahead in an indomitable spirit and with hard struggle.Asia's development achievements today are the result of the persistent efforts of the industrious and talented Asian people.The people of Asia are fully aware that there is no ready model or unchanging path of development that is universally applicable.They never shy away from reform and innovation.Instead, they are committed to exploring and finding development paths that are in line with the trend of the times and their own situations, and have opened up bright prospects for economic and social development.13年3月

朝氣蓬勃，充滿活力，豐富多彩的上海是現(xiàn)代中國的縮影。雖然上海的文化遺跡不能與北京媲美，但是上海迷人的城市風貌，風格各異的萬國建筑為這座城市注入了無限的魅力。今日之上海，已經(jīng)成為享譽中外的國際大都市。

漫步在這座日新月異的現(xiàn)代大都市里，你會發(fā)現(xiàn)許多精彩的歷史亮點，隱現(xiàn)在眾多摩天大樓背后的是上海發(fā)展變化的軌跡。它們記述了上海自十九世紀末開埠以來，尤其是新中國成立以后，是如何迅猛發(fā)展的。

Shanghai is a dynamic, diverse and stimulating city the very epitome of modern China.Though Shanghai cannot rival Beijing in cultural heritage, its varied architectural styles and cosmopolitan feel give it a charm of its own.Today's Shanghai has become a world-famous international metropolis.A walk through this booming city reveals many glimpses of its colorful past.Hidden amongst the skyscrapers are remains of the original Shanghai.They keep on showing how Shanghai has been developing fast and enormously since its opening as a commercial port in the late 19th century, especially after the founding of new China.13年9月

自古以來，我國各民族人民勞動、生息、繁衍在祖國的土地上，各民族組之間建立了緊密的政治經(jīng)濟文化聯(lián)系，早在兩千多年前就形成了幅員遼闊的統(tǒng)一國家。悠久的中華文化，成為維系民族團結(jié)和國家統(tǒng)一的牢固紐帶。

我們的先人歷來把獨立自主作為立國之本。中國作為人類文明發(fā)祥地之一，在幾千年的歷史進程中，文化傳統(tǒng)始終沒有中斷。近代中國雖屢遭列強欺凌，國勢衰敗，但經(jīng)過全民族的百年抗爭，又以巨人的姿態(tài)重新站立起來。

From ancient times, our people of all ethnic groups have labored, lived, multiplied on this land, where closely-knitted political, economic and cultural links have been established.As early as two thousand years ago, we have built a unified nation with a vast territory.The long-standing Chinese cultures become a strong bond for ethnic harmony and national unity.Our ancestors were dedicated to the proposition of maintaining independence.As one of the cradles of human civilizations，China has all along maintained its cultural tradition without letup in the history of several thousand years.In modern times, the frequent bullying and humiliation by imperialist powers once weakened China.However, after a hundred year's struggle of the entire Chinese nation, China has stood up again as a giant.14年3月

我們認識到，改革是一場深刻的革命，涉及重大利益關(guān)系調(diào)整，涉及各方面體制機制完 善。中國改革已進入攻堅期和深水區(qū)。這是因為，當前改革需要解決的問題格外艱巨，都是難啃的硬骨頭，這個時候就要一鼓作氣，瞻前顧后、畏葸不前不僅不能前進，而且可能前功盡棄。

中國是一個大國，決不能在根本性問題上出現(xiàn)顛覆性錯誤，一旦出現(xiàn)就無法挽回、無法彌補。我們的立場是膽子要大、步子要穩(wěn)，既要大膽探索、勇于開拓，也要穩(wěn) 妥審慎、三思而后行。我們要堅持改革開放正確方向，敢于啃硬骨頭，敢于涉險灘，敢于向積存多年的頑瘴痼疾開刀，切實做到改革不停頓、開放不止步。

參考譯文：

We perceive the reform as a profound revolution, involving adjustment of relationships among major stakeholders and improvement of multiple systems and mechanisms.China’s reform has entered a phase of toughness and hardness.Confronted with the extraordinary difficulty in addressing problems in reforms, we need to gather all the courage and strength since hesitation will lead to no progress and even the deprivation of what we have accomplished.When it comes to fundamental issues, China, as a country of profound influences, can't afford any subversive mistake, which would be irretrievable upon emerging.We should keep both courageous exploration and prudent actions based on the standpoint of bravery and steady progress.Marching in the correct direction of the reform and opening-up, we should dare to challenge hard nuts, tough situations and longstanding problems so as to achieve the persistence and eternity of the reform and opening-up.14年9月

一天王安經(jīng)過一棵大樹時，突然有一只小麻雀掉在地上。他決定把它帶回去喂養(yǎng)。走到家門口，突然想起媽媽不允許他在家里養(yǎng)小動物，他悄悄地把小麻雀放在門后，急忙走進屋去，在他的 哀求下媽媽破例答應(yīng)了兒子。

Spring Festival is the most solemn traditional festival in China bustling with noise and excitement.During the Spring Festival, everything was in a state of preparedness for every family.About ten days before the festival, people began busy preparing special purchases, including new clothes and shoes for the children to embrace the new year.What’s more, people begin decorating their rooms featuring an atmosphere of rejoicing and festivity, which include Spring Festival couplets on red paper pasted on the door panels, red paper-cuttings on window glass and brightly colored New Year paintings with auspicious meanings on the wall, as well as red lanterns or the Chinese character ‘Fu’(meaning blessing or happiness)on the front door.The Chinese character ‘Fu’ can be pasted normally or upside down, signifying good futune because in Chinese the “reversed fu” is homophonic with “fu comes”, both being pronounced as “fudaole.”
