【正文】 etween our countries in many directions. And even in the midst of tumultuous winds, our people had opportunities to forge deep and even dramatic ties. For instance, Americans will never forget the hospitality shown
to our pilots who were shot down over your soil during World War II, and cared for by Chinese civilians who risked all that they had by doing so. And Chinese veterans of that war still warmly greet those American veterans who return to the sites where they fought to help liberate China from occupation.
在此后的兩個(gè)世紀(jì)中，歷史洪流使我們兩國(guó)關(guān)系向許多不同的方向發(fā)展，但即使在動(dòng)蕩的歲月中，兩國(guó)人民也抓住機(jī)會(huì)發(fā)展了深入的、甚至極不平凡的關(guān)系。這種接觸令人意外，但卻恰恰促成了其成功，因?yàn)楸M管我們之間存在許多分歧，但是我們共同的人性和共同的好奇心得以從中顯現(xiàn)。
In 1979, trade between the United States and China stood at roughly $5 billion today it tops over $400 billion each year. The merce affects our people’s lives in so many ways. America imports from China many of the puter parts we use, the clothes we wear。隨著需求趨于平衡，繁榮的范圍將進(jìn)一步擴(kuò)大。如今我們享有積極的、建設(shè)性的、全面的關(guān)系，為我們?cè)诋?dāng)今時(shí)代的關(guān)鍵性全球問(wèn)題上建立伙伴關(guān)系打開(kāi)了大門，這些問(wèn)題包括：經(jīng)濟(jì)復(fù)蘇和清潔能源開(kāi)發(fā)、制止核武器擴(kuò)散和氣候變化的影響、在亞洲及全球各地促進(jìn)和平與安全。我們兩國(guó)有近200個(gè)友好城市，把我們的社區(qū)連接在一起。中國(guó)實(shí)現(xiàn)了億萬(wàn)人民脫貧，這一成就史無(wú)前例，同時(shí)，中國(guó)在全球問(wèn)題中也在發(fā)揮更大的作用。但是，“我們必然是對(duì)手”的概念并非是注定不變的——回顧過(guò)去不會(huì)是這樣。正如前面提到的那位美國(guó)乒乓球隊(duì)員所說(shuō)——作為人，我們有著許多共同之處，但是我們兩國(guó)在某些方面存在著差別。
Those documents put forward a simple vision of human affairs, and they enshrine several core principles that all men and women are created equal, and possess certain fundamental rights。
Of course, the story of our nation is not without its difficult chapters. In many ways over many years we have struggled to advance the promise of these principles to all of our people, and to forge a more perfect union. We fought a very painful civil war, and freed a portion of our population from slavery. It took time for women to be extended the right to vote, workers to win the right to organize, and for immigrants from different corners of the globe to be fully embraced. Even after they were freed, African Americans persevered through conditions that were separate and not equal, before winning full and equal rights.
當(dāng)然，我國(guó)的歷史也并非沒(méi)有困難的篇章。非洲裔美國(guó)人即使
在獲得自由后依然生活在被隔離和不平等的條件下，他們經(jīng)過(guò)不懈努力才最終贏得全面、平等的權(quán)利。但是，由于我們對(duì)這些核心原則的堅(jiān)定信念，我們?nèi)〉昧诉M(jìn)步，這些原則指引我們沖過(guò)了最黑暗的風(fēng)暴。金博士能夠站立在林肯紀(jì)念堂的臺(tái)階上，要求我們的國(guó)家實(shí)踐自身信仰的真正含義。 our mitment to international law。正是對(duì)普世權(quán)利的尊重指導(dǎo)著美國(guó)向其他國(guó)家開(kāi)放，尊重各種不同的文化，致力于遵守國(guó)際法，并對(duì)未來(lái)抱有信念。美國(guó)和中國(guó)都不想滿足于已取得的成就，止步不前。我也知道中國(guó)有很多有待我們了解的情況。我們不尋求把任何政治體制強(qiáng)加給任何別的國(guó)家，但是我們也不認(rèn)為我們主張的這些原則是我們國(guó)家所獨(dú)有的。
And that is why America will always speak out for these core principles around the do not seek to impose any system of government on any other nation, but we also don’t believe that the principles that we stand for are unique to our nation. These freedoms of expression_r_r_r and worship of access to information and political participation we believe are universal rights. They should be available to all people, including ethnic and religious minorities whether they are in the United States, China, or any nation. Indeed, it is that respect for universal rights that guides America’s openness to other countries。這也就是為什么馬丁 why opportunity is available to
all who would work for it。我們?cè)蜻^(guò)一場(chǎng)很痛苦的南北戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)，將我國(guó)的一部分人口從奴役下解放出來(lái)。 that merce should be open, information freely accessible。中國(guó)是一個(gè)文明古國(guó)，文化深遠(yuǎn)。我們已經(jīng)看到我們本著共同的利益和相互的尊重去努力所能取得的成果。
There is a Chinese proverb: “Consider the past, and you shall know the future.” Surely, we have known setbacks and challenges over the last 30 years. Our relationship has not been without disagreement and difficulty. But the notion that we must be adversaries is not predestined
not when we consider the past. Indeed, because of our cooperation, both the United States and China are more prosperous and more secure. We have seen what is possible when we build upon our mutual interests, and engage on the basis of mutual respect.
中國(guó)有句名言：“溫故而知新。而姚明是我們兩國(guó)人民都熱愛(ài)籃球的僅僅一個(gè)標(biāo)志而已——令我遺憾的是，此行中我不能觀看上海大鯊魚(yú)隊(duì)的比賽。
And in 1979, the connections among our people were limited. Today, we see the curiosity of those pingpong players manifested in the ties that are being forged across many sectors. The second highest number of foreign students in the United States e from China, and we’ve seen a 50 percent increase in the study of Chinese among our own students. There are nearly 200 “friendship cities” drawing our munities together. American and Chinese scientists cooperate on new research and discovery. And of course, Yao Ming is just one signal of our shared love of basketball I’m only sorry that I won’t be able to see a Shanghai Sharks game while I’m visiting.
1979年，我們兩國(guó)人民的聯(lián)系十分有限。 stopping the spread of nuclear weapons and the scourge of climate change。貿(mào)易在許多方面影響著兩國(guó)人民的生活，美國(guó)電腦中的許多元件以及我們身穿的服裝都是從中國(guó)進(jìn)口的，我們向中國(guó)出口你們的工業(yè)需要的機(jī)器?！?br />Of course this small opening was followed by the achievement of the Shanghai Communique, and the eventual establishment of formal relations between the United States and China in 1979. And in three decades, just look at how far we have e.
無(wú)須贅言，這個(gè)小小的契機(jī)帶來(lái)了《上海公報(bào)》的問(wèn)世，并最終促使美中兩國(guó)在1979年建立正式外交關(guān)系。參加過(guò)二戰(zhàn)的中國(guó)老兵仍然熱情歡迎故地重游的美國(guó)老兵，他們?cè)?jīng)在那里作戰(zhàn)，幫助中國(guó)從占領(lǐng)下獲得解放。華盛頓希望看到這條懸掛美國(guó)國(guó)旗的船前往世界各地，與像中國(guó)這樣的國(guó)家締結(jié)新的紐帶。然而，美國(guó)與這個(gè)城市以及這個(gè)國(guó)家的紐帶可以追溯到更久遠(yuǎn)的過(guò)去，直至美國(guó)獨(dú)立初期。的確，這是一個(gè)既有豐富的歷史，又對(duì)未來(lái)的希望充滿信心的國(guó)家。在上海，我們看到了全球矚目的發(fā)展——高聳的大廈、繁忙的街道、創(chuàng)業(yè)的動(dòng)態(tài)。我不知道他剛才說(shuō)什么，但是希望他說(shuō)的是好的。
i know that feeling. when i was young, my family lived overseas. i lived in
indonesia for a few years. and my mother, she didn’t have the money to send me where
all the american kids went to school, but she thought it was important for me to keep
up with an american education. so she decided to teach me extra lessons herself, monday
through friday. but because she had to go to work, the only time she could do it was
at 4:30 in the morning.
篇二：奧巴馬中英文演講稿
Good afternoon. It is a great honor for me to be here in Shanghai, and to have this opportunity to speak with all of you. I’d like to thank Fudan University’s President Yang for his hospitality and his gracious wele. I’d also like to thank our outstanding Ambassador, Jon Huntsman, who exemplifies the deep ties and respect between our nations. I don’t know what he said, but I hope it was good.
