实战口译
unit11.It is a real pleasure to be here to open the third meeting of our forum and to bewelcoming such a distinguished and influential group of people from both our countries, many of whom are now old friends . The forum aims to represent the strength of the relationship between our two countries outside the political relationship and looking round today it is clear that the relationship is very strong indeed.2.It is s sign for me that the forum goes from strength to strength and I believe it is playing akey role in the relations between our two countries as confirmed by the Prime Minister in our call on him this morning. This year, we have taken the theme “the challenge of Globalization” our meetings and discussions. This theme has a particular resonance for me.3.On 11 September, I, along with a number of world statemen, was in Beijing to discuss chinaand the world in the 21st century. None of us could possibly have known as we debated economic development, environmental change and security issues what was going to happen that day. But many of the speakers warned of the fragility of the world order. It made me realize more clearly than at any other time just how very important “understanding” between the nations of the world is.4.Our forum, and the discussions we will have in the next day and a half, is part of this vitalprocess of understanding. Globalization is a challenge for all of us, both developed and developing countries and we have a lot to share and learn. As globalization increases and as all our countries come to terms with the global reach of many industries, we can, as different nations, work together to understand the issues and effects these developments bring.5.People can only grasp these opportunities. People talking, travelling, exchanging ideas andexperiences. And that is what we are here today to do. Our discussions here will centre around a number of very interesting issues: trade and the environment in the globalisation of the economy , chinese culture facing the world, e-learning and e-commerce, balancing public purposes and commercial interests in the media, and China after WTO to name but a few.6.As far as I can see, joining the WTO presents ha huge chanllenge for China. The requirementsof joining WTO for corporate governance, for transparency and for reliable and enforceable laws. Whilst producing some pain in short term, will no doubt be part of the way in which economic growth can be encouraged and sustained. I personally am much looking forward to my own involvement in the discussions on small and medium sized enterprises.7.China’s decision to embrace the dynamism of the private sector brings up the role smallfirms can play in achieving rapid growth and innovation. They are, and can be, a significant engine for economic development. Therefore, we have much work to do in our forum. We want to show our Chinese friends how much of a partner the UK can be but also that as a sign of a mature and true relationship, we can afford to be frank and open in our discussions with one another.8.This will be particularly true in the sessions on issues of competitiveness and corporategovernance that will be held tomorrow. We ate building on discussions and relationshipsthat are already well founded and I believe that this forum will take the special role that our meeting plays in the relations between our two countries further forward.Unit31.In the space of a single generation, relations between the UK and the People’s Republic ofChina have been transformed. Government-to-government and business-to-business links are closer and more varied than ever before. But the most exciting changes have been in the links between the British and Chinese peoples. Chinese communities have long existed as a respected and cherished presence in British cities.2.But today , more and more British people are visiting China to see for themselves the newdynamism of great cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. We are re-discovering China’s incomparably rich cultural heritage, as well as its immense economic potential. The Chinese are re-discovering Britain, too. We are delighted to welcome more Chinese visitors to our country each year. Many more Chinese are finding out about Britain through modern media like television and the internet.3.Indeed , there are more Chinese people learning the English language than there are nativespeakers of English in the world today. This growing relationship is measurable, too, in financial terms. British firms now have a huge presence in China, a sign of their confidence in the country and its future. The UK is the largest European investor, and a British company, BP, is investing more capital in China than any other foreign firm. The largest foreign manufacturing investment in Western China is also British.4.The UK is China’s second la rgest European trading partner. British exports to China last year,at $3.72 billion were up 17% on the year 2000. China’s exports to Britain are at an all-time high. Many Chinese enterprises now regard Britain ‘s flexible and open economy has an ideal launching pad into the wider European market. All this is a far cry from 1972, when the UK and the PRC first exchanged Ambassadors. Then, there were virtually no Chinese student in Britain. Today, there are over 20,000 –one of the largest overseas communities at our universities.5.Then , there were no direct air services between Beijing and London . this year , more than aquarter of a million British tourists will travel to China, then , no serving British Prime Minister or Foreign Secretary had ever visited chan. last year , there were visits from eleven British ministers. The changing nature of international relations requires governments to work ever more closely together for their mutual benefit. In the globalised world economy, the security and prosperity of individual countries often depends on events beyond our borders.6.We are interdependent as well as independent. Challenges such as fighting environmentaldamage ,ensuring global human rights are properly observed, removing barriers to trade and investment , and reducing poverty , have become truly global issues. They loom larger on the agendas of multilateral organizations like the UN, the WTO and ASEM. In the 21st century , bilateral relations between countries will depend on progress on issues like these.7.As two of the five permanent members of the UN Security Council, our government worktogether on a daily basis on problems affecting every corner of the world. Another change inthe relationship between Britain and China has been developments in Hong Kong. I am delighted that Hong Kong has prospered since 1997, and that “one country , two systems”is proving such an effective approach.8.As a signatory of the joint declaration, he UK has an abiding interest in the continuedwell-being of the Special Administration Region. But this is only a part of our wider commitment to China, we are increasing the resources we allocate through our department for international development to poverty reduction in China from 25m this year to 60m by 2004.Unit51.Good morning everybody. And welcome to the launch of our new L50, and to thispresentation . In a way, launch is no longer the correct word. Many of you have already hada chance to get to know the new car in your test drive this morning. So , i will not dwell onthe technical capabilities of this car. What i would like to do is to share with you the thoughts that have gone into developing this new model so that you’ll have a better idea of why it’s such an exciting car to drive.2.I will also talk a bit about what has been happening in our company –the direction we areheading, our strategy, and our ambitions. After that, I’ll talk about some of the major stages in our design and development of this model. After this presentation , We’ll have lunch, which i s served in the main conference hall. Our chef has promised a few surprises. I ‘m curious as you are about what these might be , but , back to the presentation.3.Our new L50 is the first in a family of new car to be launched this year and in the nextcouple s of years. It’s the result of the most ambitious investment in our company’s history-125m, in design and development, in production capabilities, in sales network and in our own people. The investment is base on our understanding of the market and our goal for the future. so what are they then?4.We want to sell 800,000 cars a year for the next 5 years . so far this year, we’ve already sold560,000,and congratulations to those of you that have contributed to this success. This represent nearly 20 % increase over the previous year at a time when the market had declined by nearly 10% .much of the increase sales have come from the commitment and dedication of our dealers and our staff . thank you and well done.5.The launch of this L50 will mark the beginning of a series of launches, giving us a fullrange of new cars, 3-door,5-door, estate, diesel, and from 1 liter all the way up to our luxury2 liter saloon. A convertible and a 4-wheel drive are also in the final design stage. With thisnew family, we’ll be abl e to compete robustly with any competitor in US, and will be able to take on the EU market too. But products alone are not enough.6.We’ve put substantial amount of money and effort into upgrading our retail operation ,into our dealer network and into our own sales forces. This is built on our in-depth knowledge of our customers, what they want and what they need. It is base on the strength of our brand. If you visit one of our re-branded showrooms, you’ll get a strong impression of our brand and what we stand for. We are taking market shares from our competitors. .we are on target to take even more.7.We believe that the most effective way of getting more customers and growing our businessis by new cars. Not just any new cars. It had to be new cars that re-enforce our brand value.Having test driven the L50, I am sure you will all agree with me that the new L50 is exactly that-an embodiment of performance, safety, and functionality. These are the core elements of our brand value. These are features that have caught the attention of media across Europe. These will be repeated in each and every new member of the family.8.That’s all I’d like to say at this stage. My colleagues will now take you through some of thehighlights in the design and development. This is a short video we produced just before this launch. It is meant to answer some questions, what is the thinking behind this development?How do we translate concepts into a new model? How does our core value influence the thinking of people on the factory floor and in showrooms? Ladies and gentlemen, the new L50.UNIT 71.Traditionally HM Treasury , along with the bank of England ,has been responsible fordeciding all aspects of the UK’S economic and financial policy. Following the 1997 election, in which the Labour Party came to power, the macroeconomic policy framework has been reformed. The aim of this reform is to help provide a framework for improved macroeconomic stability and economic growth.2.I would like to explain the key features of the UK economic policy framework, identify thekey institutions, their leaders and main responsibilities. There are three main institutions.The first is HM Treasury which is responsible for the overall economic framework and for fiscal policy in particular. It is led by the Chancellor, Gordon Brown who is an elected politician.3.He is supported by 4 junior minister with specific responsibilities, who are also electedpolitician . the ministers receive advice from three main source: civil servants, political advisers. And for some specific projects, business leaders also prepare advice. Fiscal policy is decided through two main processes: the budget and the spending review process.4.The budget is presented each spring to parliament. It sets out tax policy for the year. Since1997 there has also been a pre-budget report. This explains progress and suggests some ideas for discussion. Later in the spring budget s decision is made. Spending policy is decided every three years. There are two main elements of spending policy. Both are decided at the same time.5.One , the amount of money which each department receives and two, using this money,targets each department will achieve. For example for the education department a target for how many children pass exams. The second main institution is the bank of England . it is led by someone non-political, at the moment, Eddie George. In 1997 it was given full independent to set interest rates. A committee , which includes a Treasury civil servant , makes the decision.6.The level of interest rates is set in order to achieve a certain rate of inflation. This target isdecided by the chancellor. Therefore although the bank can decide the level of interest rates without any interference, the macroeconomic position is guided by an elected politician who is responsible to the country. The bank also deals in the foreign exchange market.7.Finally, the financial services authority is responsible for monitoring and regulating thefinancial services industry. It has four main aims. One, maintaining confidence in the UK financial system. They supervise stock exchanges . two ,promoting public understanding of the financial system. They help consumers to become informed consumers, so that they can manage their financial affairs more effectively.8.Three , securing the right degree of protection for consumers. They monitor how firms andindividuals are meeting standards. Where serious problems arise they investigate and, if appropriate, discipline or prosecute those that have violated rules, four, helping to reduce financial crime. Their work focuses on three main types of financial crime: money laundrying, fraud, and criminal market misconduct such as insider dealingsUnit 91.Your Excellencies, distinguished guests, my lords, ladies and gentlemen, it is with greatpleasure that I welcome you tonight to this magnificent castle.

As the prudential mutual assurance, the investment andloan association in London. The company grew from a small life assurance company, with a customer base limited to the well-off middle classes, to Britain’s largest life company by number of policy-holders. In 1854 prudential opened its industrial department and began to sell ”penny policies” that could be afforded by poorer people.2.The department really began to expand in 1856 when the company pioneered infantileinsurance, allowing parents to insure the lives of children under the age of ten. By keeping statistical records about policy-holders, prudential was able to calculate accurate premium rates and improve the benefits payable on policies. By the turn of the century one third of the population was insured with “ the pru“ .by the mid 1970s, the company started to employ lady clerks and use “ modern “calculator and typewriters.3.By 1900 there were nearly 15,000 agents collecting prudential premiums. Until 1915prudential sold life assurance only. In 1915 the range of business was extended with the opening of the general branch, through which fire, accident, marine and other form of insurance were sold from 1919 onwards. During the 1920s prudential began go expand overseas and agencies were set up all over the world to sell prudential policies.4.In Britain, new policies were introduced for women, family protection and long term savingopportu nities. In the post war period the range of prudential’s products changed towards an emphasis on savings, annuities, pensions and family income protection.

实战口译Unit21.we are meeting our British friends once again by the beautiful rRver Thames, for our third conference. On behalf of the Chinese delegates,I’d like to thank you our British colleagues for your invitation and your excellent programme. Since last year’s conference, China has undergone yet more changes.2.Although the world economy isn’t doing well, the Chinese economy has continued to grow at a relatively high rate. In the first 9 months, industrial output has grew by 10.3%. The rural economy continues to prosper. There is something else that the Chinese people are happy about. Foreign companies continue to come to China in large numbers.3.Form January to September, 18, 580 foreign direct investment projects were approved, with direct investment worth 49.347 billion dollars, of which 32.2 billion dollars has been utilised. This is an increase of 20.66% on last year. In the first 3 quarters of this year, the Chinese economy grew at a rate of 7.6%.4.Increasing domestic demand is the key to maintaining high growth and a healthy economy. After WTO entry, China will bring its own practices in line with the international market and will open up further.5.We believe that a market as big as 1.3 billion people will provide substantial impetus to the world economy. China will continue its large-scale infrastructure programme,upgrade its industrial equipment and improve agricultural production as well as its processing capability.6.All of the above requires an environment of international cooperation. In the next 10 years, China will import about3,000 billion dollars of equipment, technology and products. That is a massive market with huge commercial opportunities.After WTO entry, weaker industries in China will face serious challenges.7.There are still many problems to be solved in environment, in energy, in water resources, in the reform of the economic system, in the development of the northwes t, and in reducing the gap between the rich and the poor. China has thrown its door wide open, andreached out with open arms, welcoming UK as well as other countries in the world to continue to cooperate for our mutual benefit.The development of a partnership between China and the UK requires a healthy and stable political relationship between the two counties.8.Expanding economic and trade cooperation and cooperation in other fields are conducive to the development of a bilateral political relationship. It is beneficial to the interests of our two peoples. I hope all our friends at this conference will make joint efforts, to continue to contribute to the comprehensive development of the Sino-UK relationship.Unit 41.Our economy is doing really well. The internal mechanism for economic growth has been strengthened. We have, to a large extent, struck the right balance between speed, quality and economic benefit. But it isalso clear to us that there are no countries in the world that can perpetuate an economic boom and high-speed growth. China won't be an exception.2.The achievements of the reform have been there for all to see. But, as the economic climate changes, there are now new problems. These include the reform of the state-owned enterprises, substantial unemployment, the polarization of income, corruption, risks in the financial sector and ecological and environmental damage. All of them require our immediate attention and effective solutions in the shortest time possible.3.Personally, I believe China needs to pay attention to the following areas. One, we must provide guidance more forcefully using economic and legal means in the property development market, restrict blind development in up-market properties, and to promote the construction of economical and practical properties. Two, we must monitor international as well as domestic economic development closely so as to be able to respond quickly.4.Three, we must strengthen the regulation of theautomobile and steel industries, reigning in low-grade repetitive construction and disorderly competition. We need to stop overheating in some sectors from spreading while at the same time encouraging rational elements in our economic growth. This is an issue of maintaining the right balance.5.Whilst we need to regulate the overheating of investment in some sectors, we need to take measures to solve the problem of supply falling further behind demand in others. Four, we need to coordinate our efforts to solve the problem of severe shortages of power supply in some regions. We must improve the management of water resources and seek to reduce water shortages in some regions. At the same time, we must accelerate the reform of water pricing in cities and rural areas.6.Five, we must continue our campaign to have a corruption free government. We are starting with the State Council, to set an example of conduct, to ensure that our government is well co-coordinated, fair and transparent, uncorrupted and highly efficient. Thesemeasures demonstrate our determination to clear the road ahead, the road to economic growth.7.China is still poor. Based on the official poverty threshold of 600 yuan, we still have over 20 million people living in poverty. That's using China's criteria. Based on the UN's threshold of one dollar per person per day, we have over 100 million people living in poverty.8.China's total debt is about 13,000 billion yuan, the equivalent of 1.3 times of our GDP. This is a considerable burden. On the other hand, challenges brought by our WTO entry are also difficult tasks. The financial reform in China must speed up to be ready for international competition. On the whole, I'm optimistic about China achieving over 7% growth a year.Unit 61.Today, I'd like to talk about the financial reform in China. China has achieved a great deal in the Ninth Five-Year Plan, but we still have a lot to do. Given that time is short, I won't try to cover everything, but to putforward a few ideas that I feel quite strongly about, some food for thought.2.After WTO entry, the transition period is not much more than 2 years. China, within this short time, must complete its strategic set-up in preparation for the entry of foreign competitors. We must complete the reform of the wholly state-owned commercial banks, and help qualified commercial banks to seek listings in the stock market. We need to ride the wave of financial globalization.3.In my view, during the Tenth Five-Year Plan,China must break up the handful of wholly state-owned commercial banks into a greater number of share-owned commercial banks. The People's Bank of China will remain the central bank. We should begin to consider allowing the establishment of provincial level banks. Each bank will be an independent legal person.4.China must improve the structural reform of its commercial banks. I particularly want to see better training for managers and improvement in their skills. I would suggest here that we learn from banks indeveloped countries and produce a generation of Chinese managers that know themselves and their competitors equally well.5.I recommend early piloting of comprehensive services, allowing pilot financial institutions to operate in areas common among foreign commercial banks, to offer a wide range of services to customers. The selection of pilot banks must be based on their performance in recent years, their strength, and their success in the financial reform.6.The new business areas may include the launch of new loan products, according to the market principle of supply and demand, so as to meet the requirements of economic and social development. Mortgages over recent years are an excellent example.In addition, banks in developed countries offer insurance and personal investment services. That's also worth considering.7.Linked to this, China must establish the market mechanism for interest on loans as soon as possible, to allow commercial banks to decide on their own floatinginterest rates by taking into account the base rate from the central bank, and their own operations in the market as well as their own interests. This is not just an issue of banking reform. It will greatly improve the services banks offer to consumers, stimulating economic growth.8.We must rationalize our regulatory system.The regulator must have the capacity to regulate comprehensive services. It must also be able to recognize the nature of business of each bank and treat them accordingly. That is to say, the regulator must be able to treat different commercial banks differently. Under the current circumstances, I don't think the wholly state-owned commercial banks are ready for comprehensive services.Unit81.first of all, I would like to welcome you to this presentation. As you know, China has become a member of the WTO. In accordance with the agreement, Chinawill gradually lift its restrictions on the telecommunications infrastructure market and the value-adding market, allowing foreign companies to invest directly in China or to set up joint ventures.2.the telecommunications market in China has enormous potentials. The mobile phone market alone will be worth no less than 150 billion yuan. It is estimated that the telecommunications industry, the telecommunications infrastructure network and user equipment, just the three of them combined, will be worth at least 1,500 billion yuan by 2005. The growth potential of the market can be seen in many ways.3. One, the number of telecommunications users continues to grow. Every year, we need to provide a large amount of user equipment for new users. Not only that, existing users need to upgrade their equipment too. The growth of users in turn requires networks and the infrastructure to expand, upgrade and improve, driving the demand for network equipment and the construction of network-related facilities.4. Two, as telecommunications is a very profitablebusiness, some non-telecommunication companies are also itching to have a piece of the action. Companies in the value-adding and computer network business are particularly keen to enter the telecommunications market. Further liberalization will bring opportunities to these companies. This will make it a new area for foreign investment in the very near future.5.three, telecommunication technology is developing fast. New technology and new equipment are introduced all the time. The international telecommunications manufacturing industry is attracted by relatively high quality and yet cheap labor in China. The manufacturing of telecommunications user equipment and network equipment in China is beginning to show its supremacy. As telecom and network facilities continue to develop and upgrade,there will be numerous opportunities in manufacturing.6.four, after several stages of reform, there are now China Unicom, China Railcom, China Telecom, China Netcom, China Mobile and China Satellite, the six main players. They are all keen to become stronger, keen toattract foreign investment, offering foreign capital a fast-track entry into the Chinese market.7.the telecommunications industry in China has accumulated fast capital for over a decade. It's highly profitable and will provide sufficient finance for joint ventures. In 2005, investment in telecommunications infrastructure and network facilities in China will exceed250 billion yuan. That includes not only new equipment and new facilities, but also the maintenance and repair of existing equipment.8.of course, the lifting of control will take place in stages. But there will be fewer and fewer restrictions. Many people are describing the telecommunications market in China as a goldmine for foreign investment. In the past decade, foreign investment in China's telecommunications market has been richly rewarded. So, I hope you won't hold back any more. When the market is completely open, the best opportunities may have been snatched up by others.。

Part Ⅱ2、The word SOHO stands for "Small Office, Home Office". To enterinto the SOHO life, all you need to have is just a computer, a desk and a chair. Find a remote, good working environment that you can separate yourself and distinguish between your work time and your personal time. Write down all the resources you have. and then match them to your business ideas.Over 60% of the work opportunities and income generated in the USA comes from small and medium sized businesses. Anyone who really sets their mind to it and is willing to learn, take a few calculated risks, and stick to it can succeed in owning their own small company.Needless to say, SOHO lifestyle promises great rewards and joy. First of all，you don't need to follow the strict schedules of office life, struggling out of bed and rushing to your workplace withendless tasks to finish. In addition, you are able to control your own destiny and have immediate feedback for your decisions. Although some describe entrepreneurship as "Sheer Terror", the exhilaration of finding success and knowing that you've created this small companyand will reap what you plant is very rewarding.However, don't expect every day owning your own small business to be a cakewalk. There will be great stress. You can never have aregular paycheck every month. Although you don't need to worry about being late for work, you are under a constant pressure of earningyour bread for tomorrow.Part Ⅲ3、大家好，我们现在来到了颐和园。
实战口译中译英
实战口译Unit21.we are meeting our British friends once again by the beautiful rRver Thames, for our third conference. On behalf of the Chinese delegates,I’d like to thank you our British colleagues for your invitation and your excellent programme. Since last year’s conference, China has undergone yet more changes.2.Although the world economy isn’t doing well, the Chinese economy has continued to grow at a relatively high rate. In the first 9 months, industrial output has grew by 10.3%. The rural economy continues to prosper. There is something else that the Chinese people are happy about. Foreign companies continue to come to China in large numbers.3.Form January to September, 18, 580 foreign direct investment projects were approved, with direct investment worth 49.347 billion dollars, of which 32.2 billion dollars has been utilised. This is an increase of 20.66% on last year. In the first 3 quarters of this year, the Chinese economy grew at a rate of 7.6%.4.Increasing domestic demand is the key to maintaining high growth and a healthy economy. After WTO entry, China will bring its own practices in line with the international market and will open up further.5.We believe that a market as big as 1.3 billion people will provide substantial impetus to the world economy. China will continue its large-scale infrastructure programme,upgrade its industrial equipment and improve agricultural production as well as its processing capability.6.All of the above requires an environment of international cooperation. In the next 10 years, China will import about3,000 billion dollars of equipment, technology and products. That is a massive market with huge commercial opportunities.After WTO entry, weaker industries in China will face serious challenges.7.There are still many problems to be solved in environment, in energy, in water resources, in the reform of the economic system, in the development of the northwes t, and in reducing the gap between the rich and the poor. China has thrown its door wide open, andreached out with open arms, welcoming UK as well as other countries in the world to continue to cooperate for our mutual benefit.The development of a partnership between China and the UK requires a healthy and stable political relationship between the two counties.8.Expanding economic and trade cooperation and cooperation in other fields are conducive to the development of a bilateral political relationship. It is beneficial to the interests of our two peoples. I hope all our friends at this conference will make joint efforts, to continue to contribute to the comprehensive development of the Sino-UK relationship.Unit 41.Our economy is doing really well. The internal mechanism for economic growth has been strengthened. We have, to a large extent, struck the right balance between speed, quality and economic benefit. But it isalso clear to us that there are no countries in the world that can perpetuate an economic boom and high-speed growth. China won't be an exception.2.The achievements of the reform have been there for all to see. But, as the economic climate changes, there are now new problems. These include the reform of the state-owned enterprises, substantial unemployment, the polarization of income, corruption, risks in the financial sector and ecological and environmental damage. All of them require our immediate attention and effective solutions in the shortest time possible.3.Personally, I believe China needs to pay attention to the following areas. One, we must provide guidance more forcefully using economic and legal means in the property development market, restrict blind development in up-market properties, and to promote the construction of economical and practical properties. Two, we must monitor international as well as domestic economic development closely so as to be able to respond quickly.4.Three, we must strengthen the regulation of theautomobile and steel industries, reigning in low-grade repetitive construction and disorderly competition. We need to stop overheating in some sectors from spreading while at the same time encouraging rational elements in our economic growth. This is an issue of maintaining the right balance.5.Whilst we need to regulate the overheating of investment in some sectors, we need to take measures to solve the problem of supply falling further behind demand in others. Four, we need to coordinate our efforts to solve the problem of severe shortages of power supply in some regions. We must improve the management of water resources and seek to reduce water shortages in some regions. At the same time, we must accelerate the reform of water pricing in cities and rural areas.6.Five, we must continue our campaign to have a corruption free government. We are starting with the State Council, to set an example of conduct, to ensure that our government is well co-coordinated, fair and transparent, uncorrupted and highly efficient. Thesemeasures demonstrate our determination to clear the road ahead, the road to economic growth.7.China is still poor. Based on the official poverty threshold of 600 yuan, we still have over 20 million people living in poverty. That's using China's criteria. Based on the UN's threshold of one dollar per person per day, we have over 100 million people living in poverty.8.China's total debt is about 13,000 billion yuan, the equivalent of 1.3 times of our GDP. This is a considerable burden. On the other hand, challenges brought by our WTO entry are also difficult tasks. The financial reform in China must speed up to be ready for international competition. On the whole, I'm optimistic about China achieving over 7% growth a year.Unit 61.Today, I'd like to talk about the financial reform in China. China has achieved a great deal in the Ninth Five-Year Plan, but we still have a lot to do. Given that time is short, I won't try to cover everything, but to putforward a few ideas that I feel quite strongly about, some food for thought.2.After WTO entry, the transition period is not much more than 2 years. China, within this short time, must complete its strategic set-up in preparation for the entry of foreign competitors. We must complete the reform of the wholly state-owned commercial banks, and help qualified commercial banks to seek listings in the stock market. We need to ride the wave of financial globalization.3.In my view, during the Tenth Five-Year Plan,China must break up the handful of wholly state-owned commercial banks into a greater number of share-owned commercial banks. The People's Bank of China will remain the central bank. We should begin to consider allowing the establishment of provincial level banks. Each bank will be an independent legal person.4.China must improve the structural reform of its commercial banks. I particularly want to see better training for managers and improvement in their skills. I would suggest here that we learn from banks indeveloped countries and produce a generation of Chinese managers that know themselves and their competitors equally well.5.I recommend early piloting of comprehensive services, allowing pilot financial institutions to operate in areas common among foreign commercial banks, to offer a wide range of services to customers. The selection of pilot banks must be based on their performance in recent years, their strength, and their success in the financial reform.6.The new business areas may include the launch of new loan products, according to the market principle of supply and demand, so as to meet the requirements of economic and social development. Mortgages over recent years are an excellent example.In addition, banks in developed countries offer insurance and personal investment services. That's also worth considering.7.Linked to this, China must establish the market mechanism for interest on loans as soon as possible, to allow commercial banks to decide on their own floatinginterest rates by taking into account the base rate from the central bank, and their own operations in the market as well as their own interests.

It must also be able to recognize the nature of business of each bank and treat them accordingly. That is to say, the regulator must be able to treat different commercial banks differently. Under the current circumstances, I don't think the wholly state-owned commercial banks are ready for comprehensive services.Unit81.first of all, I would like to welcome you to this presentation. As you know, China has become a member of the WTO. In accordance with the agreement, Chinawill gradually lift its restrictions on the telecommunications infrastructure market and the value-adding market, allowing foreign companies to invest directly in China or to set up joint ventures.2.the telecommunications market in China has enormous potentials. The mobile phone market alone will be worth no less than 150 billion yuan. It is estimated that the telecommunications industry, the telecommunications infrastructure network and user equipment, just the three of them combined, will be worth at least 1,500 billion yuan by 2005.

They are all keen to become stronger, keen toattract foreign investment, offering foreign capital a fast-track entry into the Chinese market.7.the telecommunications industry in China has accumulated fast capital for over a decade. It's highly profitable and will provide sufficient finance for joint ventures. In 2005, investment in telecommunications infrastructure and network facilities in China will exceed250 billion yuan. That includes not only new equipment and new facilities, but also the maintenance and repair of existing equipment.8.of course, the lifting of control will take place in stages. But there will be fewer and fewer restrictions. Many people are describing the telecommunications market in China as a goldmine for foreign investment. In the past decade, foreign investment in China's telecommunications market has been richly rewarded. So, I hope you won't hold back any more. When the market is completely open, the best opportunities may have been snatched up by others.。

口译式口语训练（1）从礼拜二到礼拜五我每天早晨大约7：30起床。
由于天气太冷无法冲澡，我只是刷刷牙，穿上厚外套，然后就冒着严寒出门了。
我喜欢早起。
与大多数人不同的是，我喜欢在寒冷中步行到地铁站。
这样我就有时间用mp3听我最喜欢的音乐，还可以做点锻炼（我在北京生活以来这点做得一直不够）。
我要乘地铁2号线抵达西直门。
我在那儿的一家幼儿园执教。
I wake up around 7:30 Tuesday through Friday. It is too cold to have a shower so I simply brush my teeth, put on my heavy coat, and then out into the cold I venture. I like getting up early and unlike most I tend to enjoy the cold walk to the subway station. It gives me time to listen to my favorite songs on my mp3 player and get a bit of exercise (something I do not get enough of living in Beijing). I ride the blue subway line 2 to Xizhimen. I am a kindergarten teacher.到达朝阳门地铁站后，我摘下帽子，感觉开始从寒冷中缓过劲儿来。
北京的冬天总是这么冷。
我想到了迎接我的将是幸福泉幼儿园的孩子们兴高采烈的小胖脸。
我好不容易穿过人群，挤上地铁。
差点就上不去了！早晨的地铁总是人满为患，里面很热，而且通常气味不是太好。
20分钟后，熟悉的电子报站声响起：“西直门到了。
”When I make it to the subway station at Chaoyangmen I feel relieved as I take off my hat and begin to thaw out from the deep chill that is Beijing during winter. I think of the jubilant and chubby little faces that will greet me when I reach the Xingfu Quan Kindergarten. I fight my way through the masses and get on board the train…barely. The trains are so packed with bodies in the mornings; it's very warm and often times smelly. After twenty minutes I hear the familiar electronic voice, "Xizhimen dao le".出了地铁站，再步行20分钟，我便来到了幸福泉幼儿园的大门口。

The forum aims to represent the strength of the relationship between our two countries outside the political relationship and looking round today it is clear that the relationship is very strong indeed.2.It is s sign for me that the forum goes from strength to strength and I believe it is playing akey role in the relations between our two countries as confirmed by the Prime Minister in our call on him this morning. This year, we have taken the theme “the challenge of Globalization” our meetings and discussions. This theme has a particular resonance for me.3.On 11 September, I, along with a number of world statemen, was in Beijing to discuss chinaand the world in the 21st century. None of us could possibly have known as we debated economic development, environmental change and security issues what was going to happen that day. But many of the speakers warned of the fragility of the world order. It made me realize more clearly than at any other time just how very important “understanding” between the nations of the world is.4.Our forum, and the discussions we will have in the next day and a half, is part of this vitalprocess of understanding. Globalization is a challenge for all of us, both developed and developing countries and we have a lot to share and learn. As globalization increases and asall our countries come to terms with the global reach of many industries, we can, as different nations, work together to understand the issues and effects these developments bring.5.People can only grasp these opportunities. People talking, travelling, exchanging ideas andexperiences. And that is what we are here today to do. Our discussions here will centre around a number of very interesting issues: trade and the environment in the globalisation of the economy , chinese culture facing the world, e-learning and e-commerce, balancing public purposes and commercial interests in the media, and China after WTO to name but a few.6.As far as I can see, joining the WTO presents ha huge chanllenge for China. The requirementsof joining WTO for corporate governance, for transparency and for reliable and enforceable laws. Whilst producing some pain in short term, will no doubt be part of the way in which economic growth can be encouraged and sustained. I personally am much looking forward to my own involvement in the discussions on small and medium sized enterprises.7.China’s decision to embrace t he dynamism of the private sector brings up the role smallfirms can play in achieving rapid growth and innovation. They are, and can be, a significant engine for economic development. Therefore, we have much work to do in our forum. We want to show our Chinese friends how much of a partner the UK can be but also that as a sign of a mature and true relationship, we can afford to be frank and open in our discussions with one another.8.This will be particularly true in the sessions on issues of competitiveness and corporategovernance that will be held tomorrow. We ate building on discussions and relationships that are already well founded and I believe that this forum will take the special role that our meeting plays in the relations between our two countries further forward.Unit31.In the space of a single generation, relations between the UK and the People’s Republic ofChina have been transformed. Government-to-government and business-to-business links are closer and more varied than ever before. But the most exciting changes have been in the links between the British and Chinese peoples. Chinese communities have long existed as a respected and cherished presence in British cities.2.But today , more and more British people are visiting China to see for themselves the newdynamism of great cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. We are re-discovering China’s incomparably rich cultural heritage, as well as its immense economic potential. The Chinese are re-discovering Britain, too. We are delighted to welcome more Chinese visitors to our country each year. Many more Chinese are finding out about Britain through modern media like television and the internet.3.Indeed , there are more Chinese people learning the English language than there are nativespeakers of English in the world today. This growing relationship is measurable, too, in financial terms. British firms now have a huge presence in China, a sign of their confidence in the country and its future. The UK is the largest European investor, and a British company, BP, is investing more capital in China than any other foreign firm. The largest foreign manufacturing investment in Western China is also British.4.The UK is China’s second largest European trading partner. British exports to China last year,at $3.72 billion were up 17% on the year 2000. China’s exports to Britain are at an all-time high. Many Chinese enterprises now regard Britain ‘s flexible and open economy has an ideal launching pad into the wider European market. All this is a far cry from 1972, when the UK and the PRC first exchanged Ambassadors. Then, there were virtually no Chinese student in Britain. Today, there are over 20,000 –one of the largest overseas communities at our universities.5.Then , there were no direct air services between Beijing and London . this year , more than aquarter of a million British tourists will travel to China, then , no serving British Prime Minister or Foreign Secretary had ever visited chan. last year , there were visits from eleven British ministers. The changing nature of international relations requires governments to work ever more closely together for their mutual benefit. In the globalised world economy, the security and prosperity of individual countries often depends on events beyond our borders.6.We are interdependent as well as independent. Challenges such as fighting environmentaldamage ,ensuring global human rights are properly observed, removing barriers to trade and investment , and reducing poverty , have become truly global issues. They loom larger on the agendas of multilateral organizations like the UN, the WTO and ASEM. In the 21st century , bilateral relations between countries will depend on progress on issues like these.7.As two of the five permanent members of the UN Security Council, our government worktogether on a daily basis on problems affecting every corner of the world. Another change in the relationship between Britain and China has been developments in Hong Kong. I am delighted that Hong Kong has prospered since 1997, and that “one country , two systems”is proving such an effective approach.8.As a signatory of the joint declaration, he UK has an abiding interest in the continuedwell-being of the Special Administration Region. But this is only a part of our wider commitment to China, we are increasing the resources we allocate through our department for international development to poverty reduction in China from 25m this year to 60m by 2004.Unit51.Good morning everybody. And welcome to the launch of our new L50, and to thispresentation . In a way, launch is no longer the correct word. Many of you have already hada chance to get to know the new car in your test drive this morning. So , i will not dwell onthe technical capabilities of this car. What i would like to do is to share with you the thoughts that have gone into developing this new model so that you’ll have a better idea of why it’s such an exciting car to drive.2.I will also talk a bit about what has been happening in our company –the direction we areheading, our strategy, and our ambitions. After that, I’ll talk about some of the major stages in our design and development of this model. After this presentation , We’ll have lunch, which is served in the main conference hall. Our chef has promised a few surpri ses. I ‘m curious as you are about what these might be , but , back to the presentation.3.Our new L50 is the first in a family of new car to be launched this year and in the nextcouples of years. It’s the result of the most ambitious investment in our company’s history-125m, in design and development, in production capabilities, in sales network and in our own people. The investment is base on our understanding of the market and our goal for the future. so what are they then?4.We want to sell 800,000 cars a year for the next 5 years . so far this year, we’ve already sold560,000,and congratulations to those of you that have contributed to this success. This represent nearly 20 % increase over the previous year at a time when the market had declined by nearly 10% .much of the increase sales have come from the commitment and dedication of our dealers and our staff . thank you and well done.5.The launch of this L50 will mark the beginning of a series of launches, giving us a fullrange of new cars, 3-door,5-door, estate, diesel, and from 1 liter all the way up to our luxury2 liter saloon. A convertible and a 4-wheel drive are also in the final design stage. With thisnew family, we’ll be able to compete robustly with any competitor in US, and will be able to take on the EU market too. But products alone are not enough.6.We’ve put substantial amount of money and effort into upgrading our retail operation ,into our dealer network and into our own sales forces. This is built on our in-depth knowledge of our customers, what they want and what they need. It is base on the strength of our brand. If you visit one of our re-branded showrooms, you’ll get a strong impression of our brand and what we stand for. We are taking market shares from our competitors. .we are on target to take even more.7.We believe that the most effective way of getting more customers and growing our businessis by new cars. Not just any new cars. It had to be new cars that re-enforce our brand value.Having test driven the L50, I am sure you will all agree with me that the new L50 is exactly that-an embodiment of performance, safety, and functionality. These are the core elements of our brand value. These are features that have caught the attention of media across Europe. These will be repeated in each and every new member of the family.8.That’s all I’d like to say at this stage. My colleagues will now take you through some of thehighlights in the design and development. This is a short video we produced just before this launch. It is meant to answer some questions, what is the thinking behind this development?How do we translate concepts into a new model? How does our core value influence the thinking of people on the factory floor and in showrooms? Ladies and gentlemen, the new L50.UNIT 71.Traditionally HM Treasury , along with the bank of England ,has been responsible fordeciding all aspects of the UK’S economic and financial policy. Following the 1997 election, in which the Labour Party came to power, the macroeconomic policy framework has been reformed. The aim of this reform is to help provide a framework for improved macroeconomic stability and economic growth.2.I would like to explain the key features of the UK economic policy framework, identify thekey institutions, their leaders and main responsibilities. There are three main institutions.The first is HM Treasury which is responsible for the overall economic framework and forfiscal policy in particular. It is led by the Chancellor, Gordon Brown who is an elected politician.3.He is supported by 4 junior minister with specific responsibilities, who are also electedpolitician . the ministers receive advice from three main source: civil servants, political advisers. And for some specific projects, business leaders also prepare advice. Fiscal policy is decided through two main processes: the budget and the spending review process.4.The budget is presented each spring to parliament. It sets out tax policy for the year. Since1997 there has also been a pre-budget report. This explains progress and suggests some ideas for discussion. Later in the spring budget s decision is made. Spending policy is decided every three years. There are two main elements of spending policy. Both are decided at the same time.5.One , the amount of money which each department receives and two, using this money,targets each department will achieve. For example for the education department a target for how many children pass exams. The second main institution is the bank of England . it is led by someone non-political, at the moment, Eddie George. In 1997 it was given full independent to set interest rates. A committee , which includes a Treasury civil servant , makes the decision.6.The level of interest rates is set in order to achieve a certain rate of inflation. This target isdecided by the chancellor. Therefore although the bank can decide the level of interest rates without any interference, the macroeconomic position is guided by an elected politician who is responsible to the country. The bank also deals in the foreign exchange market.7.Finally, the financial services authority is responsible for monitoring and regulating thefinancial services industry. It has four main aims. One, maintaining confidence in the UK financial system. They supervise stock exchanges . two ,promoting public understanding of the financial system. They help consumers to become informed consumers, so that they can manage their financial affairs more effectively.8.Three , securing the right degree of protection for consumers. They monitor how firms andindividuals are meeting standards. Where serious problems arise they investigate and, if appropriate, discipline or prosecute those that have violated rules, four, helping to reduce financial crime. Their work focuses on three main types of financial crime: money laundrying, fraud, and criminal market misconduct such as insider dealingsUnit 91.Your Excellencies, distinguished guests, my lords, ladies and gentlemen, it is with greatpleasure that I welcome you tonight to this magnificent castle.

中国的传统节庆膳食除了在数量和质量上与平时有所不同之外，一些历史悠久、具有象征意义的食物也是节日必不可缺的伴侣。
Traditional holiday meals are different from everyday meals in terms of quantity and quality. In addition, some foods with a long history and symbolic significance are indispensable on these occasions.例如，我国的端午节是纪念古代诗人屈原的日子。
那一天，人们通常要赛龙舟、吃粽子。
For example, on the Dragon Boat Festival, a day set aside in memory of the ancient poet Qu Yuan, people will hold dragon boat races and eat zongzi, a kind of glutinous rice dumplings wrapped in bamboo leaves.中秋节是观赏满月的日子。
圆圆的月亮象征着圆满，象征着家庭团聚。
因此，中秋节的特制食品是一种圆形的月饼。
The Mid-autumn Festival is an occasion for viewing the full moon. The round moon is a symbol for completeness, and family reunion. The special food of the day is the yuebing, a round moon cake.春节是中国的农历新年，除了常见的海鲜、家禽和肉类之外，人们还要按各自的地方习俗烹制传统菜肴，如饺子和年糕。
The Spring Festival is the Chinese lunar New Year’s holiday. In addition to the popular seafood, poultry and meat, people will prepare traditional food, for example, jiaozi, or boiled dumplings, and niangao, or the year cake according to their regional custom.欢迎光临上海武术中心。

AIDS ：Acquired Immure Deficiency SyndromeAmong all the ways and means, a massive educational campaign is the only thing conceivable at the moment that can really help. //在所有措施中，开展大规模的教育活动是目前唯一行之有效的办法。
Some people argue that a nationwide, or worldwide, educational campaign on AIDS awareness is difficult, expensive and therefore impossible. I think their argument is groundless.//有些人认为，在全国范围或全世界范围开展提防艾滋病的教育活动难度大，代价高，因而无法实施。
我认为这种观点是毫无根据的。
We'll have to convince people that they're better of knowing than not knowing the fact, because they can take actions, treat the problem and control AIDS infection with appropriate drugs.我们应该使人们相信，了解实际情况总比蒙在鼓里好，因为了解实情后我们便可以行动起来，共同研讨这一问题，并可以用适当的药物来控制疾病的传染。
参考书录《中高级口译口试备考精要》Passage 2:People from different cultures sometimes do things that make each other uncomfortable, without meaning to or sometimes without even realizing it. //不同文化背景的人在一起有时会做出一些令对方感到不舒服的事，他们并非故意要这样做，有时甚至连自己也未察觉。
Most Americans are usually spontaneous, friendly and open, and enjoy meeting new people, having guests and ringing people together formally or informally. //大多数美国人通常天真、率直，友好坦率，喜欢结识人，欢迎客人来访，愿意召集正式的或非正式的聚会。
They tend to be informal and speak freely. So if your American hosts do something that makes you uncomfortable, try to let them know how you feel. They will appreciate your honesty and try not to make you uncomfortable again. //美国人往往不拘礼节，说话毫无拘束。
