Passage 1
As for us Americans, you may think that we give too much importance to individualism and personal gains, so much so that it might sacrifice collective benefits, and even bring harm to the harmony of the society.//
Yes, but you don’t have to be worried. American work ethic is more individual-oriented. We often value the results and accomplishments of work more than its process.//
If I am not mistaken, the traditional Chinese work ethic is based on Confucianism, which stresses the benefit of communal harmony rather than individual freedom.//
It’s really very hard to say which is better because if the cultural differences. With the economic globalization, cultural exchanges have become more and more extensive and Americans and Chinese will know and understand each other better.
至于我们美国人，你们会感到我们太看重个人主义，太看重个人利益，这样可能会牺牲集体的利益，甚至会损害社会的和谐。

//
是的，但你们不必担忧。

我们美国人的工作理念更强调个人主义。

我们一般重视的是结果和成就，而不是过程。

//
如果我没理解错的话，中国传统的够工作理念是以儒家学说为基础的，这种思想强调整体和谐高于个体自由。

//
由于文化差异的存在，真的很难说哪种理念更好。

随着经济全球化，文化交流也随之变得越来越广泛，美国人民和中国人民将会更加互相了解和理解。

The first step towards the knowledge-based economy can be made it one is able to effectively develop a vision of the future, exploit one’s self-potential and stay open-minded.//
I am very glad that China will soon carry out the National Medium-to-long Term Program for Education Reform and Development. This program, I’m sure, will encourage your young people to absorb new knowledge and apply it in science and technology.
“知识经济”表明了人类即将进入的一个全新的战略发展时代。

知识正成为最重要的资本和生产力。

// “知识经济”有一大特点，那就是创新。

创新指创造新知识和运用新知识的能力。

此种能力不仅决定财富的多少，还是取得竞争优势的基础。

如果能不断发展前瞻的眼光，挖掘自身的潜力，保持开放的头脑，你便向“知识经济时代”迈出了第一步。

Passage 1
Ladies and Gentlemen, during my stay here for 5 years, I have noticed many cultural differences. Such cultural differences arise from a different in region, race, history, environment and in the level of social and economic development.//
Here are some examples. We American emphasize efficiency, competition and originality, while your management gives priority to careful planning and encourages close cooperation.//
In American schools, discussion is given top priority and seminar is the usual way of class. Teachers with flexible and adaptable talents are regarded as good an popular ones.//
But Chinese teachers like to lecture in class, and a lot of them are obsessed with examinations; they spend long hours planning and preparing classes, and writing consistent and standardized plans. It’s very interesting to us.
女士们，先生们，我在此已经生活了五年，我看到了许多文化差异。

这种文化差异是由地狱、种族、历史和环境的差异造成的，也是由社会、经济发展水平的差异造成的。

以下是一些例子。

我们美国人强调效率、竞争和独创性，而你们的管理则将严格规划放在首位，鼓励（团
员成员之间的）密切合作。

在美国学校，讨论享有至高无上的地位，讨论就是课堂教学的主旋律。

具有灵活应变才能的教师被视为优秀、受学生欢迎的教师。

而中国教师喜欢讲课，喜欢考试，花许多时间去备课，编写千篇一律的标准教案。

在我们眼里，这太有意思了。

Passage 2
Ladies and Gentlemen, the world today is facing a serious problem of poverty in some areas. We must refocus our attention, and resources, on the places and people that are economically being left behind.//
As we do, we must bear in mind that none are more committed to ending poverty than the poor themselves. Often, all they lack is the guidance and the tools to get rid of poverty.//
Therefore, it requires all citizens to actively participate in policy-making, and government to become more accountable to their citizens in their efforts to achieve their goals.//
Today, we join hands with the poor in a collective effort. This is a close and extensive cooperation which brings together civil society, the private sectors, and individuals around the world.
女士们、先生们：当今世界一些地区正面临着严重的贫穷问题。

我们必须重新将资源和注意力更加集中地投向那些经济落后的地区和人们。

此外，我们必须牢记，世界上的贫穷人们自己比任何人都想消除贫困。

只是他们往往缺乏必要的消除贫困的指导和方式方法。

因此，我们要鼓励公民积极参与政策制定，还需要各国政府采取对公民更加负责任的态度，以实现他们的奋斗目标。

今天，我们和贫困人们共同携手，这是一种紧密而又广泛的合作。

它将使全世界的公民社会，私营企业以及个人团结在一起。

Passage 1
现在我来介绍一下中国的世界文化遗产。

中国是一个古老而又文明的国家，有悠久的历史、灿烂的文化、壮丽的山河。

//
在中国的国土上，自然与地理环境多姿多彩，东西南北风光迥异，良好的地理环境造就了无数的天然名胜。

//
漫长的历史，为中华民族留下了丰厚而珍贵的文化遗产和自然遗产，它不仅属于中华民族，也是全人类的宝贵财富。

//
目前这些文化和自然遗产正日益受到破坏的威胁，主要是因为年代久远所致，同时也有些人为因素。

这些都应该引起我们的高度重视。

//
Now, I’d like to give you a brief introduction to the World Heritage Sites in China. China is a country with an age-old history, a brilliant civilization, and magnificent landscapes.//
On this land, China enjoys diverse and beautiful natural and geographical conditions, and landscape with the varied features of north, east, south, and west. Such excellent geographical conditions have produced many natural scenic spots.//
The rich and precious cultural and heritages left by China’s long history are assets for both the Chinese nation and the rest of the world.//
Today, however, these cultural and natural heritages are threatened by the increasing damages mainly caused by their own old age and some by man-made damage, to which we should pay high attention.//
Passage 2
体育运动是人类的共同语言，是促进和平与发展的重要因素。

自远古时代起，体育运动就已超越种族、肤色、文化的差异。

//
体育运动承载着人类对和平美好世界的向往与追求。

诞生于两千多年前的奥林匹克精神，就是这一追求的具体体现。

//
奥林匹克理想是人类不断的追求，体育运动和体育教育则是实现这一追求的具体实践。

//
体育运动不仅让我们拥有强健的体魄，更让我们学会沟通、合作和尊重他人，也是不同文明和价值观之间加强联系的重要媒介。

Being a common language of humanity, sport is an important factor in the promotion of peace and development. Ever since ancient times, sport has transcended differences in race, color and culture.//

Passage 1
The whole world has focused its attention on China, an oriental country that still appears mysterious to many people in the west. China is providing the greatest fascination in the 21st century.//
Since the Second World War, countries like Britain and Germany have had major achievements and minor problems, while Southeast Asia has had major problems and minor achievements.//
China, though, is experiencing both major achievements and major problems. I do believe the tough line on population control has been a great contribution to humanity on an international level.//
I’m positive that China will definitely become an economic superpower in the not too distant future and will play an irreplaceable role in promoting economic prosperity in the world.//
全世界的注意力都集中在中国这个对许多西方人士来说依旧十分神秘的国家。

中国是21世纪最具有吸引力的国家。

//
自从第二次世界大战以来，英国和德国这样的国家取得了巨大成就，遇到了小问题。

东南亚遇到了大问题，取得了小成就。

//
而中国既取得了大成就，也面临大问题。

我确实相信，中国在人口控制方面采取的强硬路线（从全球来说我）为人类做出了巨大贡献。

//
我相信，中国一定会在不远的将来成为经济超级大国，在促进世界的经济繁荣方面发挥不可替代的作用。

Passage 2
Ladies and Gentlemen, I am delighted to have the opportunity to address you at the opening of the 7th China International High-tech Expo. In the last two years I have witnessed tremendous advances across China, particularly in hi-tech manufacturing sectors, in science and research.//
Britain is well placed to enable China to develop even faster in these areas. Hi-tech manufacturing industries are global and they are important to us all.//
British companies and research institutions can make a strong contribution to China’s success in hi-tech sectors. We’re specially interested in such field as Information and Communications Technology, biotechnology and many more,//
China has more world-class companies and they go out into the international markets. Many of them are attracted to Britain. We now have over 300 Chinese companies operating profitably and successfully in Britain.
女士们、先生们，我很高兴能有机会在“第七届中国国际高科技产业博览会”的开幕式上发言。

两年来，我见证了整个中国的巨大进步，尤其是在高科技制造和科研领域取得的成就。

英国深具优势，能帮助中国在这些领域发展得更快。

高科技制造业是全球性的产业。

对我们所有人都是至关重要。

//
英国的公司和研究机构能为中国在高科技领域的成功做出极大贡献。

我们特别感兴趣的有信息与通信技术、生物技术，乃至更多的领域。

中国有很多世界级公司，它们正在走出国门，走向国际市场，其中有许多公司都选择了英国。

英国现在有300多家运营顺利、受益良好的中国公司。

Passage 1
合作与交流应当是双向的。

我认为，我们应当处理好竞争与合作的关系。

合作比竞争更为有利。

//
然而，我们注意到中国对海外的报道与西方媒体对中国的报道，两者之间存在明显的失衡。

在中国，人们能够观看有关国外的各种报道，而在西方国家，人们很少看到正面报道关于中国经济发展和社会进步方面的节目。

//
我认为产生这一现象有多种原因。

但是我相信，通过加强合作与交流，这种不平衡的状况终将得到改变。

//
Cooperation and communication should be mutual. I think we should do well with the relationship between competition and cooperation. Actually, cooperation is more beneficial to us than competition.//
However, (as we have noticed/ as we were aware,) there is a marked imbalance between China’s report on foreign countries and the reports on China by western media.//
In China, people can watch different programs about foreign countries. But you can find very few positive programs about China’s economic development and social progress in western countries.//
I think that there are many reasons for this phenomenon. But I believe that enhanced cooperation and exchanges can eventually change this unbalanced situation.
Passage 2
经济全球化的快速发展，中美经贸关系的不断深化，形成了“你中有我、我中有你、互利共赢”的经贸关
系。

//
我们希望美国政府能够顺利顺应历史发展趋势，采取正确的经贸政策措施，确保两国人民获得更多实实在在的利益。

//
中美两国经贸关系规模之大，涉及范围之广，牵涉各方面利益之深，已经使其成为当今世界最为复杂的经济关系。

//
当前中美经贸关系中出现的产品质量和食品安全问题，就是一个突出的事例。

我们双方就这一问题进行了深入、坦率的讨论。

Thanks to accelerated economic globalization, the growing China-US business relations have exhibited the features of interdependence, mutual benefit and win-win progress.//
We hope that the US administration will follow the trend of historical development, and pursue the right trade policy so as to enable our two people to gain more concrete benefits.//
China-US business relationship is the most complex one in today’s world owing to its huge scale, broad scope and the extensive interests of various parties involved.//
A case in point in China-US business relationship is the issue of product quality and food safety. China and the United States have had in-depth and frank discussions on this issue.

Mr. Mayor, let me thank you for the opportunity to share some thoughts about how to ensure Shanghai’s position as a world center of innovation in the near future.//
We have already recognized the importance of innovation to Shanghai’s economic growth and prosperity. You have articulated a strategy that places technological innovation capacity at the top of the agenda.//
Innovation is the lifeblood of a country and business—there is no future without it. We have to think of innovation as more than basic science or new laboratory equipment.//
Innovation is the creation of value through new products or services, technologies and business models. And it requires strong leadership, a long term strategy and people who are committed to innovation.
市长先生，首先感谢您给我这个机会来谈一下我对如何确保上海在不远的未来成为世界级创新中心的看法。

我们已经意识到创新对于上海经济发展和繁荣的重要意义。

您已阐明了（上海的）发展战略，那就是将技术创新能力（的提升）置于一切工作之首。

创新是国家的生命线，也是企业的生命线。

没有创新就没有未来。

创新不仅仅是基础科学研究的投入，也不仅仅是新实验设备的购置。

创新是通过新产品、新服务、新技术和新商业模式的开发而创造的价值。

创新需要坚强有力的领导、长期的战略和致力创新的人才。

建立中非新型战略伙伴关系是中非合作的内在需要，也是促进世界和平与发展的必然要求。

中非关系不断发展，不仅有利于中国和非洲的发展进步，而且有利于促进发展中国家的团结与合作。

China is the largest developing country, and Africa is home to the largest number of developing countries. Our combined population accounts for over a third of the world total.//

Passage 1
I’m a research psychologist and I’ve been doing researches on the problems of marriage and family. Today I feel greatly honored to be invited to give a talk on this subject. Being a good parent is harder now than it has ever been before.//
In pressurized modern lives, it is hard to be a good worker and a good parent at the same time. We haven’t left space for the care and nurturing that parents expect to provide for their children.//
Traditional family imposes too many roles on females. Therefore, today many highly educated and economically privileged women are opting to take career breaks so as to be at home with their children for longer than the 18 weeks.//
I think the whole point of marriage is that it imposes clear obligation, not just the right to pursue your own happiness. Children demand sacrifice and altruism, which means a long-term investment of parental time and
我是个心理研究工作者，从事一些婚姻家庭问题的研究。

今天我很荣幸受邀谈一谈这个话题。

现在做个好父母比以往任何时候都要难。

在压力重重的现在生活中，要做个好雇员就无法同时做称职的家长。

父母应给予孩子们悉心照料，我们却无暇顾及。

传统家庭有很多强加给妇女的责任。

因此，现在许多受过高等教育以及经济地位优越的妇女都情愿有一段职业间歇，这样和孩子一起在家里的时间就长一些，而不仅是那18周。

我认为，婚姻的关键一点就是它给夫妻双方以种种义务，而不只是赋予他们追求自身幸福的权力。

孩子需要家长的自我牺牲和无私奉献，也就是说需要父母长期地投入时间和财力。

Venice is a city built on water and it has about 150 canals. The best time to visit Venice is during the clear spring days of March and April.//
From June to August, the city is hot and crowded with tourists. Autumn is quite pleasant, but winters are cold. Floods are common in November and December.//
It is well-known that Venice faces an uncertain future. The city is sinking into the sea. Unless solutions are found soon for the problem, Venice will no longer exit.

Passage 1
如今，人们必须终身学习才能适应社会的变革，这就是终身教育思想在许多国家受到重视的原因。

//
现代工业使得许多传统职业在社会上消失。

一个人如果不继续学习，他很快就会被时代所抛弃。

//
科学技术的进步还使得人类深刻地认识到人与自然、人与社会的关系，认识到人类自身的发展和责任。

// 今天许多人不光是为谋生而学习。

因此，终身教育要为人们不断提高自身的素质提供学习机会。

Today, people must pursue lifelong learning to adapt themselves to the transformation of the society. That’s why great importance has been attached to the idea of lifelong education in many countries.
Modern industry has removed many traditional occupations from the society. If one does not continue to learn, he will soon be abandoned by the times.
The advancement of science and technology also enables mankind to fully understand the relation between man and nature, the relation between man and society, and the development and responsibilities of his own.
Today, many people take up learning not only for making a living. Therefore, lifelong education should provide learning opportunities for people to constantly improve themselves.
