我们应该尊重和维护世界文明的多样性。

各国文明的多样性,是人类社会的基本特征,也是推动世界文明进步的重要动力。

当今世界拥有60亿人口,200多个国家和地区,2500多个民族,5000多种语言。

各个国家和地区,无论是历史传统、宗教信仰和文化背景,还是社会制度、价值观念和发展程度,往往存在这样那样的差异,整个人类文明也因此而交相辉映、多姿多彩。

We should respect and maintain the diversity of the world's civilizations. The diverse civilizations are a hallmark of human society and an important driving force behind human progress. Our world today has over 6 billion inhabitants living in more than 200 countries and regions. They break down into over 2,500 ethnic groups and speak more than 5,000 different languages. Be it historical tradition, faith and culture, or social system, values and level of development, those countries or regions are often different from one another. It is these differences that make our planet dazzling, colorful and bustling with life.这种文明的多样性是在历史长河中形成的,并将长期存在下去。

翻译资格考试《高级口译》参考译文(3)

翻译资格考试《高级口译》参考译文(3)Third, civilizations are inclusive, and such inclusiveness has given exchanges and mutual learningamong civilizations the needed drive to move forward. The ocean is vast for it refuses no rivers.All civilizations are crystallizations of mankind’s hard work and wisdom. Every civilization isunique. Copying other civilizations mechanically or blindly is like cutting one’s toes just to fit hisshoes, which is not only impossible but also highly detrimental. All achievements ofcivilizations deserve our respect and must be treasured.历史告诉我们,只有交流互鉴,一种文明才能充满生命力。

只要秉持包容精神,就不存在什么“文明冲突”,就可以实现文明和谐。

这就是中国人常说的:“萝卜青菜,各有所爱。

”History also tells us that only by interacting with and learning from others can a civilizationenjoy full vitality. If all civilizations can uphold inclusiveness, the so-called “clash ofcivilizations” will be out of the question and the harmony of civilizations will become reality. Thisis like what we Chinese often sa y, “radish or cabbage, each to his own delight.”中华文明经历了5000多年的历史变迁,但始终一脉相承,积淀着中华民族最深层的精神追求,代表着中华民族独特的精神标识,为中华民族生生不息、发展壮大提供了丰厚滋养。

That's Peking Opera, which originated from Beijing some 200 years ago during the Qing Dynasty. It's a performing art that embraces opera performance, singing, music, dancing and martial arts. The costume exposition will present 200 years of development of this "Oriental Opera" and the performance costumes dating to the late Qing Dynasty. // The costume design adopted exaggeration and symbolic means and bright colors. The materials are unique, so are the tailoring skills. Another exhibition will display a total of 600 sets of clothes, including the ancient clothes of different dynasties from the Qin and Han, the costumes of China's ethnic groups, and modern garments and accessories. Famous models from China will participate to present the achievements of the Chinese garment industry and Chinese designers.//Passage 12中国人民自古以来的哲学思想就是“和为贵”、“和而不同”,我们历来主张中美两国文明虽有不同,却不相斥;虽有差异,却能交融。

历年英语翻译高级口译下半场汉译英真题及答案西塘是一个具有一千多年历史的水乡古镇,保存完好的明清时期建筑群是其他旅游景点所无法相比的。

徜徉古镇街头,使人们仿佛置身于一副美丽的水墨画之中。

河两岸高耸的粉墙和水中清晰的瓦房倒影,还有那在微风里婆娑摇曳的杨柳,似乎都在为这个古镇增添着异彩和生机。

在这个宁静的水镇里,生活的脚步似乎完全听命于那淌着潺潺流水的河流。

西塘可以说是水的同义词。

这里的河流是那样的蜿蜒曲折、波光粼粼,映射出一派宁静祥和的街景。

夜幕降临,河岸边数千盏灯笼与晚霞一并点燃,把整个小镇映衬得灯火通明,为镇民们照亮了回家的路。

Xitang, a river-side town with a history of more than 1,000 years, boasts a group of well-preserved buildings from Ming Dynasty and Qing Dynasty that are unmatched by any other resorts. Take a free walk in its streets, and you will feel as if you were in a picturesque Chinese ink painting. The high-standing white wall on both sides of the river and the clear reflection of tile-roofed houses in the water as well as the willows waving and dancing in the breeze all vividly bring life and vigor to the town.In this tranquility, the pace of life seems to be harmoniously subject to the gurgling streams. The name of the town Xitang is a synonym of water. The winding rivers with sparkling ripples give away the tranquility it has acquired. As the fall of night ignites thousands of lanterns along the riverbanks and set off the sunset glow, the whole town become ablaze with light and illuminates the way home for its residents.解析:本文是一篇旅游景点介绍文,原文中运用了大量的修辞和拟人手法,翻译起来有一定的难度。

诸多欧美学者认为,西方骄傲自大的“中心主义”蒙蔽了其心智,面对中国的成功,西方应及时反思和学习。

While others sympathize with the bright prospect of Chinese economy, we shouldn’t despise ourselves nor misjudges the developing trends of the world or our own circumstances, underestimating our potential for development and belittling ourselves to the loss of confidence.Of course, we should be aware of the difficulties and hardships even in good times of stability and prosperity to foresee the risks and challenges ahead instead of resting easy into inaction.

There is, first, history regarded as a way of looking at other things, really the temporal aspect of anything, from the universe to this nib with which I am writing. Everything has its history. There is the history of the universe, if only we knew it and we know something of it, if we do not know much.

Whatever has been written with the pen-nib is part of its history. In addition to that there is the history of its manufacture, this particular nib is a "Relief" nib, No. 314, made by R. Esterbrook & Co. in England, who supply the Midland Bank with pen-nibs, from whom I got it—a gift, I may say, but behind this nib there is the whole process of manufacture. In fact a pen nib implies universe, and the history of it implies its history. We may regard this way of looking at it—history—as the time-aspect of all things, a pen-nib, the universe, the fiddle before me as I write, as a relative conception of history. There is, secondly, what we may call a substantive conception of history, what we usually mean by it, history proper as a subject of study in itself.填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:temporal aspect of anything)解析:填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:Everything has its history)解析:填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:if only we knew it)解析:填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:the contrast so great)解析:填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:the universe and this pen-nib)解析:填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:a considerable history)解析:填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:what has been written)解析:填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:something quite important)解析:填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:only one quill-pen or a couple)解析:填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:In addition to that)解析:填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:of its manufacture)解析:填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:from whom I got it)解析:填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:the whole process of manufacture)解析:填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:implies universe)解析:填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:the time-aspect)解析:填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:the universe, the fiddle)解析:填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:relative conception of history)解析:填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:a substantive conception of history)解析:填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:a subject of study in itself)解析:三、Part B Listening Comprehension(总题数:4,分数:20.00)Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following conversation.Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following conversation.(分数:5.00)(1).A.

Maybe a computer with a good printer will saveme a lot of trouble.M: A word processor is what you need if you really mean that.W: Does a computer differ from a word processor?M: Of course. Almost all computers available in the market, such as desktop computers, lap-tops or notebooks, and palm-tops or PDAs, have many more functions than a word processor.W: So many terms, I'm totally confused. Are they all computers?M: To he briefer, sometimes we cai1 them personal computers, or PCs. Besides data processing, the computer can communicate with the user in an intelligent way. It could even play chess with you.W: If it's hooked up to a network, can I get an e-mail from my cousin in New Zealand in a few seconds?M: Sure. Recently, a large number of films and TV series are based on this advanced means of communication.W: Yeah. The romance in a Japanese TV series With Love fascinated me so much.M: And a computer with a great memory capacity can help store a great deal of information, far more than your files on the desk. By downloading from the Internet, you can collect the newest in any field. Furthermore, someone predicts the era of e-commerce is approaching. That means you can buy and sell things without going out, just by computer at home. Even you can view VCD, DVD, listen to music...W: So versatile! It must be costing a fortune to buy one. I just want the computer cheap as well as good.M: I can see that. But it depends on the chip in CPU. The faster this chip of silicon can process data, the more it costs. Generally speaking, a good computer needn't waste your time and money on upgrading, and now it doesn't cost much. Maybe 6,000 RMB can buy you one with Pentium IV. W: That's great!

Holding back the Palestinian election.(分数:1.00)A.B.C.D. √解析:[解析] 6-10PALESTINEPalestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas has renewed his call for a ceasefire with Israel and he has criticized militants for rocket attacks that, he said, are counterproductive. Abbas, who is the front-runner in the January 9th Palestinian elections, said the rocket attacks are quoted "useless" because they provoke what he called a very grave Israeli escalation. He also accused Israel of hindering the Palestinian election campaign. Early today, Israel launched a new incursion into northern Gaza after a Qassam rocket wounded an Israeli woman. Palestinian witnesses says fifty Israeli tanks and armored personnel carriers moved into Belt Hanoun in the Jabalia refugee camp.IRAQThe Iraqi Interim Prime Minister Ayad Allawi has said his patience over the situation in the insurgent-held city of Fallujah is wearing thin and negotiations to restore his government control there must come to an end soon. He said the government was in the final phase of efforts to secure the city without what he called a major military confrontation. US forces have carrying out repeated strikes against insurgents in Fallujah.CHINAThe first international Tibetan traditional medicine conference will be held July 15th to 17th in Lhasa, capital city of the Tibet Autonomous Region. China's Ethnic Medicine Institute, Tibetan Health Bureau and Tibetan Medical College will co-host the conference. The conference has received more than 500 research papers from China and abroad. The organizing committee primarily selected 290 articles to be discussed at the conference. More than 50 foreign guests from the US, Russia, Britain, India, Germany, France, Italy and Nepal will attend the meeting. The Chinese mainland will send a delegation consisting of 250 Tibetan medicine experts to the conference. NORTH KOREANorth Korea is warning the United Nations Security Council not to consider sanctions against it and says it will not recognize any resolutions on its nuclear program that the world body mightapprove. Four days before the UN Security Council is scheduled to discuss North Korea's nuclear program, Pyongyang is clarifying its views on the matter. A North Korean foreign ministry spokesman, quoted by the state-run Korean Central News Agency, says just bringing up the issue is "a prelude to war".SPAINThe Galileo system will be made up of 30 satellites beaming navigation signals to ground-control centers in the EU. Spain has been blocking a deal on how the system would be run, demanding to host one of the centers, but a compromise has now been reached allowing the multi-billion-dollar project to move ahead. But it's already running five years behind schedule. It's meant to be made up and running by 2013, but analysts say by then the American global positioning system may have already established an unassailable grip on the satellite navigation industry.6.

That colloquial Arabic is the everyday spoken language, which varies from country to country.B. That Arabic is just one language that all Arabs understand, speak and write.C. That classical Arabic and modern Arabic are two different kinds of written Arabic.D. That pan-Arabic provides a means of communication between educated people of different Arab nationalities.(分数:1.00)A.B. √C.D.解析:[解析] 11-15M: Good evening. Today, we invited Professor Lynch, an expert on Arabian culture to tell us some facts about the language that we may not really know.W: Hi, good evening. It's my honor to be here to share my knowledge with everybody.M: So, professor, I wonder if all the Arabs speak the same language, Arabic, just like people living in North America all speak English.W: It is generally thought that Arabic is a single language, spoken, written and understood by people in countries as widely separated as Iraq, Egypt and Morocco, but this is not so. It is only written Arabic (that is, the classical Arabic of the Koran and the modern Arabic of contemporary literature, journalism and broadcasting), that is more or less common to the wholeof the Arab world. The colloquial Arabic, which is spoken in the different Arab societies today, differs as widely between Arab countries as do Italian, Spanish and Portuguese.M: That's surprising! So you mean all the Arabs from different countries can understand others' written language, but not the spoken language?W: You are partly right. In the Arab world, written Arabic acts as a kind of Esperanto, providinga means of communication between educated people of different Arab nationalities. Written Arabic is, paradoxically, spoken too: on the radio and television, in public speeches, as well as between Arabs from different countries. We could call it pan-Arabic. It is used in rather the same way as Latin was used by educated people in Europe in the Middle Ages.M: It seems as if there are a lot of differences between written Arabic and colloquial Arabic. Shall we say that they belong to one language?W: It's a little complicated to explain. As we all know, even in English, of course, there are differences of grammar and vocabulary between the written and spoken language, but this differenceis far less than that between the artificial pan-Arabic and the living colloquial language of any Arab country. Moreover, both written and spoken English are recognized in English- speaking countries as belonging to one living language, and both are taught in schools. Colloquial Arabic, on the other hand, is not regarded by the people who speak it as "proper" Arabic. Unlike colloquial English, it is not taught in schools, and it is not written; indeed, there is a strong feelingin Arab societies that it should not be used in a written form.M: So what language, pan-Arabic or colloquial Arabic, does an Arab, say, an Egyptian, use mainlyin his everyday life?W: An educated Egyptian uses pan-Arabic to talk to equally educated Iraqis, Saudis and Moroccans. No reasonable man, however, wishes to talk like a book or a newspaper, and the language that the same educated Egyptian uses with his family and with other Egyptians is quite different. This language is wholly Egyptian, and it is only spoken.11. What mistaken view do most people hold about Arabic?(2).A. Colloquial Arabic. B. Esperanto.C. Proper Arabic.D.

It is produced by famous people.B. It gives advice about life.C. It's expressed in myths, fairy tales, legends and songs.D. It is extremely humorous.(分数:1.00)A.B. √C.D.解析:[解析] 16-20Every culture has many sayings that give advice about life. These sayings are part of what is commonly called folk wisdom. Of course, folk wisdom is also expressed in other ways, such as myths, fairy tales, legends, and songs. Often however, folk wisdom is shared in the form of short sayings about the best ways to approach life's joys and sorrows.One characteristic of American folk wisdom is its humor. Humor makes the bitter medicine of life easier to swallow. It sometimes makes the harsh realities of life more attractive. For example, Benjamin Franklin's clever saying, "A full belly makes a dull brain" means "People who are well-fed or self-satisfied can become lazy and stupid." But this paraphrasing loses the elegance and humor of Franklin's original saying. Some moralists in the United States are successful because they are able to say wise things humorously.Abraham Lincoln expressed similar opinions about life but in a different way. Lincoln continued the tradition of "horse sense" humor. This type of humor appeals to people who are hungry for practical common sense. Lincoln, both a politician and an idealist, understood the need for horse sense. He knew how to use common sense to influence people's opinion. He could take the highest moral principles or the most critical observations and use them in folksy—or simple commonsense—humor to make them better understood and more easily accepted. Take, for example, this quote, which is one of the best known in the United States. "You can fool all of the people some of the time, and some of the people all of the time, but you can't fool all of the people all of the time. " Another of Lincoln's wise, folksy statements is: "The Lord prefers common-looking people. That's why he makes so many of them. "There is no doubt that people need a little push sometimes to help them see the folly of their ways. Mark Twain used humor to reveal that many popular ideas were false, foolish, or even harmful. Twain thought that most human beings didn't examine why they believe certain things, and that they were too easily influenced by the opinions of people in power. He felt that it was easier for people to be "misled" than to be led correctly, so he tried to show the foolishness of those in power. For example, he said, "Hain't we got all the fools in town on our side and ain't that a big enough majority in any town?"Now you may get the impression that Twain was a misanthrope, a person who saw everyone's mistakes and never noticed their good qualities. It's true that his humor was sometimes harsh, but it was used to reveal truths about human relationships. Twain thought the result would be a better, more just society. However, he also realized that he irritated a lot of people. He was aware that when newspapers reported his death, many people might be happy to hear the news. The telegram he sent from Europe to the Associated Press is typical of his humor. It read, "The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated. "16.

"?四、SECTION 2 READING TEST(总题数:4,分数:50.00)Questions 1~5According to the old Jewish stories, the world was in a sad state. The hand of man was lifted against his neighbor. People murdered and stole from each other. It was not safe for a girl to leave her home, lest she be kidnapped by the boys in the neighboring villages. Jehovah, the God of the Israelites, wanted to begin civilization again, hoping that a new generation would prove to be more obedient to his will.In those days there lived a man called Noah. He was descendant of Seth, a younger brother of Cain and Abel, who was born after the family tragedy had taken place. Noah was a good man who tried to be at peace with his conscience and with his fellowmen. If the human race had to began once more, Noah would make a very good ancestor.Jehovah therefore decided to kill all other people, but spare Noah. He came to Noah and told him to build a ship. The vessel was to be four hundred and fifty feet long and thirty feet wide and it was to have a depth of forty-three feet. So Noah and his faithful workmen cut down large cypress trees and laid the kneel and built the sides and covered them with pitch, that the hold might be dry. When the third deck had been finished, a roof was built. It was made of heavy timber, to withstand the violence of the rain that was to pour down upon this wicked earth.Then Noah and his household, his three sons and their wives, made ready for the voyage. They went into the fields and into the mountains and gathered all the animals they could find that they might have beasts for food and for sacrifices when they should return to dry land.A whole week they hunted successfully. And then the "Ark" (for so was the ship called) was full of the noises of the various creatures who did not like their cramped quarters.On the evening of the seventh day, Noah and his family went on board. Later that night, it began to rain. It rained for forty nights and forty days. At the end of this time, the whole world was covered with water, Noah and his fellow travelers in the Ark were the only living things to survive this terrible deluge.Finally, a new wind swept the clouds away. Once more the rays of the sun rested upon the turbulent waves as they had done when the world was first created.Noah opened a window on the Ark and peered out. His ship floated peacefully in the midst of an endless ocean, and no land was in sight. To see if there was dry land, Noah sent out a raven, but the bird came back. Next he sent a pigeon. Pigeons can fly longer than almost any other bird, but the poor thing could not find a single branch upon which to rest, and it also came back to Ark.He waited a week, and once more he set the pigeon free. It was gone all day, but in the evening it returned with a freshly plucked olive leaf in its beak. The waters were receding. Another week went by before Noah released the pigeon for the third time. It did not return and this was a good sign. So afterward the Ark landed on the top of Mount Ararat, in the country which is now called Armenia.The next day Noah went ashore. At once he took some stones and built an altar, and then killed a number of his animals to make a sacrifice for Jehovah. And behold, the sky was bright with the colors of a mighty rainbow. It was a sign from Jehovah to his faithful servant, promising never again would he destroy the entire earth.(分数:12.50)(1).According to the story, Jehovah wanted to destroy the whole world because ______.A. people on earth were wicked and they did not listen to God's instructionsB. there were crimes of murder and theftC. the world was dirtyD.

Jehovah asked him to do itD. there was no food except for those animals(分数:2.50)A. √B.C.D.解析:Questions 6~10Campaigning on the Indian frontier is an experience by itself. Neither the landscape nor the people find their counterparts in any other portion of the globe. Valley walls rise steeply five or six thousand feet on every side. The columns crawl through a maze of giant corridors down which fierce snow-fed torrents foam under skies of brass. Amid these scenes of savage brilliancy there dwells a race whose qualities seem to harmonize with their environment. Except at harvest-time, when self- preservation requires a temporary truce, the Pathan tribes are always engaged in private or public war. Every man is a warrior, a politician and a theologian. Every large house is a real feudal fortress made, it is true, only of sun-baked clay, but with battlements, turrets, loopholes, drawbridges, etc. complete. Every village has its defense. Every family cultivates its vendetta; every clan, its feud. The numerous tribes and combinations of tribes all have their accounts to settle with one another. Nothing is ever forgotten, and very few debts are left unpaid. For the purposes of social life, in addition to the convention about harvest-time, a most elaborate code of honor has been established and is on the whole faithfully observed. A man who knew it and observed it faultlessly might pass unarmed from one end of the frontier to another. The slightest technical slip would, however, be fatal. The life of the Pathans is thus full of interest; and his valleys, nourished alike by endless sunshine and abundant water, are fertile enough to yield with little labor the modest material requirements of a sparse population.Into this happy world the nineteenth century brought two new facts: the rifle and the British government. The first was an enormous luxury and blessing; the second, an unmitigated nuisance. The convenience of the rifle was nowhere more appreciated than in the Indian highlands. A weapon which would kill with accuracy at fifteen hundred yards opened a whole new vista of delights to every family or clan which could acquire it. One could actually remain in one's own house and fire at one's neighbor nearly a mile away. One could lie in wait on some high crag, and at hitherto unheard-of ranges hit a horseman far below. Even villages could fire at each other without the trouble of going far from home. Fabulous prices were therefore offered for these glorious products。

Passage 11The psychology of the market is one that includes both the psychology of investing and the psychology of gambling. There are the compulsive attractions of gambling in the market. The undulating moods of the stock market, alternating between its bull phase of energy greediness and grandiosity, and the bear phase of timidity, anxiety, indecisiveness and self-doubt, reflect the manic behavior of the gambling addict. Speculation differs from most gambling activities in that the beliefs of the participants affect the results. In certain circumstances speculators are capable of creating self-fulfilling prophecies.// Success in speculation is ultimately dependent on finding someone else to buy your shares at a higher price than you paid for him or her. Every speculative bubble resembles a chain letter in that profits are provided by late entrants to the market. Everyone is attempting to anticipate the immediate intentions of his competitors. In such circumstances, paying attention to shifts in market psychology becomes essential.//市场的心态表现出投机与赌博兼而有之的两重性。

市场有难以抗拒的赌博诱惑。

股市的情绪在牛市和熊市之间交替波动,牛市充满了高涨的贪婪情绪,熊市则弥漫着胆怯、焦虑、犹豫不决和自我怀疑的情绪。

股市心态的这种波动折射出赌徒的躁狂行为。

//Passage 12The utility of the United Nations to the United States as aninstrument of foreign policy can too easily be underestimated. Over the years since its founding in 1945, the United Nations has been more or less a servant of American interests. The most spectacular examples were the official UN authorization and sponsorship of intervention in the “troubled spots” of the world with an international peacekeeping force. Consider this fact: The United States provides an average quarter of the UN budget. // Many Americans feel the United Nations does not give good value for the investment. But any evaluation of the United Nations must take into account the purpose for which the United States sought to create it: power without diplomacy. In many cases, a victory of the United Nations is a victory of the United States. In recent years, however, with the growing position of China and some other countries in international diplomacy, the United States can no longer control UN decisions as it did before. But the United Nations will continue to function as a useful instrument of American foreign policy.//美国利用联合国作为其外交政策的工具很容易被低估。

联合国自1945年成立以来,或多或少地成了美国利益的服务工具。

最典型的事例是,在联合国正式授权和操办下,国际维和部队可以对世界上的“麻烦”地区进行干预。

你得考虑这样一个事实,美国给联合国提供的经费占了联合国总预算的1/4。

//许多美国人认为,联合国没有对这种投资予以良好的回报。

但是,对联合国的任何评价都必须考虑到美国所追求的目的,即不使用外交手段的力量。

很多事例表明,联合国的胜利就是美国的胜利。

然而,由于中国以及其他一些国家近年来国际外交地位的提高,美国再也无法像以前那样控制联合国的决策。

当然,联合国作为美国外交政策的有效工具,将继续发挥这样的作用。

//Passage 13We must recognize that the world today is diverse, manifold,colorful and rich in terms of culture. This should be an asset rather than a debt of humanity. It permeates all aspects of human rights, whether civil, political, economic, social or cultural. The world would be a much better place to live in if we respected cultural diversity, practiced tolerance and lived together in peace with one another as good neighbors.// It is essential to transcend the differences in social system and ideology in handling state-to- state relations, and work to seek convergence of common interests, rather than model the world after one political system or development mode. We hope that the United Nations will truly become a center for harmonizing actions of nations. We call for stronger efforts by the United Nations to harmonize cultures through dialogues and consultation, as well as to resist any attempt to build a mono-cultural world by means of political pressure and coercion.//我们必须认识到,当今世界的文化纷然杂陈、丰富多彩。

这是人类的财富,绝非负担。

这一特征反映在人权的各个方面,如民权、政治权、经济权、社会权和文化权。

如果我们尊重文化的多样性,宽容忍让,和睦相处,这个世界会变得更美好。

//处理国与国的关系应超越社会制度和意识形态的差异,努力寻求共同利益的汇合点,不能用一种政治制度和发展模式去规范世界。

我们希望联合国成为国际协调中心。

我们要求联合国发挥更强有力的作用,以对话和协商的方式协调文化关系,抵剖任何企图以施加政治压力的手段来建立一个单一文化世界的行为。

Passage 14Our country has been a member of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development for almost 30 years. Global economic issues are among the core elements of post- Cold War international relations and like other countries, we give priority attention to these issues. Our increasingdependence on international trade and the effects of world economic conditions on our domestic economy have led to a sharpened focus on international trade issues in the pursuit of our foreign policy.// Our economic and political future is linked closely with those of its Asian and other Pacific neighbors. Our trade, investment and technology transfer, in the form of joint ventures with such countries, continue to grow. Through regular, reciprocal, high-level exchanges of visits, our close contact with their governments continues, particularly with the government of the People's Republic of China. We take the view that peace and prosperity in the Asia-Pacific region depends on the ability of the region's countries to cooperate to maintain economic growth and political stability. We are keen to ensure the stability and security of this region and to develop mutually profitable trade, investment, technological exchanges and cooperation.近30年来我国一直是经济合作与发展组织的成员。
