1) What WTO Accession Means for China (入世对于中国的意义)
In this new age of globalization , China’s leadership has decided to seek globalization’s benefits and accept its risks. The decision to join the WTO, and to accept the disciplines and rules that lie at its heart, is the latest important step enabling China to navigate globalization’s currents.
在这个全球化的新时代,中国领导人决定寻求全球化的益处,并承受其带来的风险。加入世贸组织并且接受作为其核 心的行为准则和各项规则,这个决定是中国顺应全球化潮流所迈出的最为重要的一步。
Therefore, I am proud that my colleagues and I had the opportunity last year, shortly after assuming office, to take the lead in driving to complete China’s admission to the WTO after the process had been stalled for a year and half.
因此,我引以自豪的是,我的同事和我本人在去年刚上任不久的首要工作就是,在中国入世进程停顿了一年半之后,致力于完成这项工作。
As a WTO member, China is supposed to greatly reduce tariff and non-tariff barriers. It will need to improve protection and enforcement of intellectual property rights. It needs to allow companies engaged in telecommunications, computer services, banking, securities, insurance, freight forwarding, and wholesale and retail distribution to invest in China, providing services of value and spurring domestic competition.
作为世贸组织的成员,中国应当大幅降低关税和非关税壁垒,应当加强实施对知识产权的保护,应当允许(外国)公司投资于中国的电信、计算机服务、银行、证券、保险、货物转运以及批发与零售业,以提供各种重要的服务,推动国内竞争。
China has agreed to transform its system of laws and regulations through transparency, opening rules to comment before promulgation and to court review afterward. As a result, China’s membership in the WTO will mean lower prices, greater consumer choice, greater enterprise efficiency, enhanced productivity, higher wages, new jobs, and more opportunity.
中国已经同意通过提高透明度来进行法律制度改革,其法规在颁布实施前要进行公示,听取意见,实施后要接受法院检验。其结果是,中国成为世贸组织成员后将带来的好处是:物价下降,消费者有更多的选择,企业效益增大,生产率提高,工资上涨,就业机会增多,机遇也越来越多。
2) I Have a Dream (Martin Luther King)
This is our hope. This is the faith with which I return to the South. With his faith we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope. With this faith we will be able to transform the jangling discords of our nation into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood. With this faith we will be able to work together, to pray together, to struggle together, to go to jail together, to stand up for freedom together, knowing that we will be free one day.
这就是我的希望。这就是我带回南方的信念。怀着这个信念,我们能够把绝望的大山凿成希望的磐石。怀着这个信念,我们能够将我国种族不和的喧嚣变为一曲友爱的乐章。怀着这个信念,我们能够一同工作,一同祈祷,一同奋斗,一同入狱坐牢,一同为争取自由而斗争,因为我们知道我们终将获得自由。
When we let freedom ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God’s children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual, “Free at last! free at last! thank God almighty, we are free at last!”
我们使自由之音响彻千家万户,响彻每个州郡城池,就会促使那个日子尽快到来。到了那一天,上帝的一切儿女,无论黑人、白人、犹太人、非犹太人、基督教徒和天主教徒都将携手同唱那首古老的黑人圣歌:“我们终于获得了自由!终于获得了自由!感谢全能的上帝,
