5、eryimportantunderstandingbetweenthenationsoftheworldis.9月11号那天，我正在与一些国际政治家们在北京讨论中国与21世纪的世界。我们当中谁也没有想到，就在我们辩论经济发展、环境改变和安全问题的时候，那天将要发生什么事情。但是，很多发言人都警告说，世界秩序很脆弱。这使我比以往任何时候都更加清楚地认识到国家之间相互理解的重要性。OurForum,andthediscussionswewillhaveinthenextdayandahalf,arepartofthisvitalprocessofunderstanding.Globalizatio

7、中的组成部分。全球化对我们大家都是一个挑战，无论是发达国家还是发展中国家都一样。我们有很多需要分享和学习之处。随着全球化的发展，各国都在接受很多行业都已经跨国经营的现实。作为不同的国家，我们可以相互合作，认识这些问题以及这些发展带来的影响。Theseopportunitiescanonlybegraspedbypeople.Peopletalking,travelling,exchangingideasandexperiences.Andthatiswhatweareheretodaytodo.Ourdiscussionsherewillcentrearoundanumberofveryint

17、theChineseeconomygrewatarateof7.6%.立足于促进、提高国内市场需要，是保证中国经济持续、快速、健康发展的关键。加入WTO以后，中国将更严格地遵循国际通行的市场规则，进一步对外开放。Increasingdomesticdemandisthekeytomaintaininghighgrowthandahealthyeconomy.AfterWTOentry,Chinawillbringitsownpracticesinlinewiththeinternationalmarketandwillopenupfurther.我们相信，一个13亿人口的大市场，会为拉动世界经

China will continue its large-scale infrastructure programme, upgrade its industrial equipment and improve agricultural production as

19、well as its processing capability. 这都需要在国际合作的环境中才能实现。今后10年，中国大约还要进口价值3万亿美元的设备、技术和产品。这意味着巨大的市场和商机。中国入世以后，国内弱势产业将面临严重挑战。All of the above requires an environment of international cooperation. In the next 10 years, China will import about 3,000 billion dollars of equipment, technology and products. That

20、 is a massive market with huge commercial opportunities. After WTO entry, weaker industries in China will face serious challenges. 在环境、能源、水资源以及经济体制改革、开发大西北、缩小贫富差距等方面，还存在许多需要解决的问题。中国已敞开大门，张开双手，欢迎包括英国在内的世界各国继续参与互利合作。中英合作伙伴关系的发展，需要两国保持健康、稳定的政治关系。There are still many problems to be solved in environment

21、, in energy, in water resources, in the reform of the economic system, in the development of the northwest, and in reducing the gap between the rich and the poor. China has thrown its door wide open, and reached out with open arms, welcoming UK as well as other countries in the world to continue to

22、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 countries. 不断扩大的经贸和各领域的合作关系，又有助于推动两国政治关系的发展。这符合两国人民的利益。希望我们出席这次大会的所有朋友合作努力，共同为推动中英友好合作关系的全面发展，不断做出新的贡献。Expanding economic and trade coopera

23、tionand 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-

24、UK relationship. In the space of a single generation, relations between the United Kingdom and the Peoples Republic of China have been transformed Government-to-government and business-to-business links are closer and more variedthan ever before. But the most exciting changes have been in the links

25、between the British and Chinese peoples. Chinese communities have long existed as a respected and cherished presence in British cities. 在短短一代人的时间内，英国和中华人民共和国之间的关系已经发生了彻底的变化。政府之间、商界之间的关系从未像如今这样紧密、多样。但是，最令人兴奋的变化当属英中两国人民之间的联系。华人社区在英国城市中长久以来都受到尊重和珍视。But today, more and more British people are visiting C

Many more Chinese are finding out about Britain through modern media like television and the Internet. 但是今天，越来越多的英国人访问中国，亲眼目睹像北京、上海、广州这样的大城市的新活力。我们正在重新发现中国无与伦比、丰富多彩的文化遗产以及她巨大的经济潜力。中国人也正在重新发现英国。我们每年都很高兴地欢迎越来越多的中国客人来访。通过电视和因特网这样的现代媒体了解英国的中国人大大增加。Indeed, there are more Chine

British firms now have ahuge presence in China, a sign of their confidence in the country and its future. The UK is the largest Euro

29、pean 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. 毫不夸张地说，当今世界上学习英语的中国人已经超过了以英语为母语的人了。这种关系的发展也可以从经济角度来衡量。英国公司现在在中国有很大的规模。这表明他们对中国及其未来的信心。英国是欧洲在华的最大投资国。英国的BP公司在中国的投资超过

30、了其他任何外国公司。中国西部最大的外国制造业投资也来自英国。The UK is Chinas second largest European trading partner. British exports to China last year, at 3.72 billion were up 17% on the year 2000. Chinas exports to Britain are at an all-time high. Many Chinese enterprises now regard Britains flexible and open economy has an ideal launching pad into the wider European market.
