第一篇：楊瀾講稿

Mr.President, Ladies and Gentlemen,Good afternoon!

主席先生，各位來賓，大家午安！

Before I introduce our cultural programs, I want to tell you one thing first about 2008.You're going to have a great time in Beijing.在我介紹我們的文化節(jié)目，首先我要告訴你一件有關(guān)于2008的事，你將在北京度過一段美好的時(shí)光。

China has its own sport legends.Back to Song Dynasty, about the 11th century, people started to play a game called Cuju, which is regarded as the origin of ancient football.The game was very popular and women were also participating.Now, you will understand why our women football team is so good today.中國(guó)有自己的體育傳奇?；氐剿未?，大約11世紀(jì)，人們開始玩一個(gè)叫蹴鞠的游戲，這被看作是足球古老的起源。這個(gè)游戲很受歡迎，婦女也來參加?，F(xiàn)在，你就會(huì)明白，為什么我們的女子足球隊(duì)這么厲害了。

There are a lot more wonderful and exciting things waiting for you in New Beijing, a dynamic modern metropolis with 3,000 years of cultural treasures woven into the urban tapestry.Along with the iconic imagery of the Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven and the Great Wall, the city offers an endless mixture of theatres, museums, discos, all kinds of restaurants and shopping malls that will amaze and delight you.還有更多精彩的事物在等著你。在新北京，一個(gè)充滿活力的現(xiàn)代化大都市，交織3000年的文化寶藏的城市面貌，伴隨著象征意象的紫禁城、天壇、萬里長(zhǎng)城正在向您展開，這個(gè)城市有著多樣的的影院、博物館、舞廳、各種餐館和購(gòu)物中心，正在讓您感到驚喜與興奮。

But beyond that, it is a place of millions of friendly people who love to meet people from around the world.People of Beijing believe that the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing will help to enhance the harmony between our culture and the diverse cultures of the world.Their gratitude will pour out in open expressions of affection for you and the great Movement that you guide.但除此之外，它是一個(gè)深受幾百萬喜愛，可以滿足來自全世界的人的城市。北京人民相信，2008年北京奧運(yùn)會(huì)將有助提升中國(guó)與中國(guó)香港的和諧,我們的文化會(huì)與世界多元文化相互交融。他們會(huì)公開表達(dá)對(duì)奧運(yùn)的期盼之情了，你可以見證你和偉大的運(yùn)動(dòng)間的文化交流。

Within our cultural programs, education and communication will receive the highest priority.We seek to create an intellectual and sporting legacy by broadening the understanding of the Olympic Ideals throughout the country.在我們的文化發(fā)展中，教育和交流將得到優(yōu)先發(fā)展，我們想要?jiǎng)?chuàng)造一個(gè)智力和體育記錄，以擴(kuò)大人們所了解的奧運(yùn)夢(mèng)想傳播于全國(guó)各地。

Cultural events will unfold each year, from 2005 to 2008.We will stage multi-disciplined cultural programs, such as concerts, exhibitions, art competitions and camps which will involve young people from around the world.During the Olympics, they will be staged in the Olympic Village and the city for the benefit of the athletes.文化活動(dòng)也將因之而每一年開展，從2005年至2008年，我們將舉辦多元化的文化節(jié)目，如音樂會(huì)、展覽會(huì)、美術(shù)比賽和夏令營(yíng)，將涉及來自世界各地的青少年。奧運(yùn)會(huì)期間,他們將分別在奧運(yùn)村和所有受惠的運(yùn)動(dòng)員活動(dòng)。

Our Ceremonies will give China's greatest-and the world's greatest artists a stage for celebrating the common aspirations of humanity and the unique heritage of our culture and the Olympic Movement.開幕式我們將給予我國(guó)在世界最大的藝術(shù)舞臺(tái)，歡慶共同愿望和人們獨(dú)特的文化遺產(chǎn)——我們的文化和奧林匹克運(yùn)動(dòng)所帶來的魅力。

With a concept inspired by the famed Silk Road, our Torch Relay will break new ground, traveling from Olympia through some of the oldest civilizations known to man-Greek, Roman, Egyptian, Byzantine, Mesopotamian, Persian, Arabian, Indian and Chinese.Carrying the message “Share the Peace, Share the Olympics,” the eternal flame will reach new heights as it crosses the Himalayas over the world's highest summitMount Qomolangma, which is known to many of you as Mt.Everest.In China, the flame will pass through Tibet, cross the Yangtze and Yellow Rivers, travel the Great Wall and visit Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan and the 56 ethnic communities who make up our society.On its journey, the flame will be seen by and inspire more human beings than any previous relay.I am afraid I can not present the whole picture of our cultural programs within such a short period of time.Before I end, let me share with you one story.Seven hundred years ago, amazed by his incredible edtions of a far away land of great beauty, people asked Marco Polo whether his stories about China were true.He answered: What I have told you was not even half of what I saw.Actually, what we have shown you here today is only a fraction of Beijing that awaits you.Ladies and gentlemen, I believe that Beijing will prove to be a land of wonders to athletes, spectators and the worldwide television audience alike.Come and join us.Thank you, Mr.President.Thank you all.Now, I would like to give the floor to Mr.He

翻譯稿:

主席先生，女士們，先生們，下午好!

在向各位介紹我們的安排之前，我想先告訴大家，你們2008年將在北京渡過愉快的時(shí)光。

中國(guó)的體育運(yùn)動(dòng)歷史可以追溯到大約11世紀(jì)的宋朝，那時(shí)人們就開始玩一種蹴鞠的游戲，那被當(dāng)成足球的起源。那項(xiàng)運(yùn)動(dòng)很受歡迎，婦女也參與其中，這時(shí)您知道我們的女子足球也很強(qiáng)的原因了吧。

北京是一座充滿活力的現(xiàn)代都市，三千年的歷史文化與都市的繁榮相呼應(yīng)，除了紫禁城、天壇和萬里長(zhǎng)城這幾個(gè)標(biāo)志性的建筑，北京擁有無數(shù)的戲院、博物館，各種各樣的餐廳和歌舞場(chǎng)所，這一切的一切都會(huì)令您感到驚奇和高興。

我相信在座的許多人都曾為李安的奧斯卡獲獎(jiǎng)影片《臥虎藏龍》所吸引，這僅僅是我們文化的一小部分，還有眾多的文化寶藏等待著你們?nèi)ネ诰颉?/p>

除此之外，北京城里還有千千萬萬友善的人民，熱愛與世界各地的人民相處，無論是過去還是現(xiàn)在，北京歷來是各個(gè)民族和各種文化的匯集地，北京人民相信，在北京舉辦2008年奧運(yùn)會(huì)，將推動(dòng)我們文化和全世界文化的交流。在我們的計(jì)劃當(dāng)中，教育和交流將是我們的希望，我們期待在全國(guó)尤其是數(shù)百萬青少年中，留下一筆精神財(cái)富。

從2005年到2008年我們每年定期舉辦文化活動(dòng)，我們將開展多元文化活動(dòng)，舉辦世界青少年和表演家參加的音樂會(huì)，這些文化活動(dòng)同時(shí)在奧運(yùn)村和全市范圍內(nèi)展開，以方便運(yùn)動(dòng)員的參加。

我們的開閉幕式，將是展現(xiàn)中國(guó)杰出作家、導(dǎo)演和作曲家的舞臺(tái)，謳歌人類的共同理想，以及我們獨(dú)特的奧林匹克運(yùn)動(dòng)。

基于絲綢之路帶來的靈感，我們的火炬接力，將途經(jīng)希臘、埃及、羅馬、美索布達(dá)米亞，波斯、印度和中國(guó)，以共享和平、共享奧運(yùn)為主題，“奧運(yùn)”這一永恒不惜的火炬，將跨越世界最高峰——珠穆朗瑪峰，從而達(dá)到最高的高度，中國(guó)的奧運(yùn)圣活將通過西藏，穿過長(zhǎng)江和黃河，踏上長(zhǎng)城，途經(jīng)香港、澳門、臺(tái)灣，在組成我們國(guó)家的56個(gè)民族中傳遞。通過這樣的路線，我們保證目睹這次火炬接力的人們，會(huì)比任何一次都多。

700年前，馬可波羅曾對(duì)中國(guó)的美麗有過驚奇的描述。有人問馬可波羅，你的有關(guān)中國(guó)的描述是真的嗎？他說，我只不過將我所見到的跟你們描述了一半而已。

女士們，先生們，我相信北京和中國(guó)將向運(yùn)動(dòng)員、觀眾和全世界的電視觀眾證明，這是一塊神奇的土地。

謝謝主席先生，謝謝大家！

第二篇：楊瀾訪談

楊瀾訪談

——記錄這個(gè)時(shí)代的精神印跡

2013年，作為中國(guó)電視最早推出的高端訪談節(jié)目，《楊瀾訪談錄》即將迎來它的第十三個(gè)年頭。告別2012，《楊瀾訪談錄》這檔老牌訪談節(jié)目將進(jìn)行全新改版登陸北京衛(wèi)視，在每個(gè)周日晚上23點(diǎn)與觀眾見面。

在過去的十二年當(dāng)中，楊瀾帶領(lǐng)她的團(tuán)隊(duì)走過世界上二十多個(gè)國(guó)家和地區(qū)，與六百多位不同地域、不同領(lǐng)域的風(fēng)云人物對(duì)話。從各國(guó)政要到文化大家、從行業(yè)領(lǐng)袖到文體名人，從焦點(diǎn)新聞當(dāng)事人到草根達(dá)人，這些人物的經(jīng)歷和故事體展現(xiàn)了這個(gè)時(shí)代特有的精神價(jià)值。在剛剛到來的2013年，《楊瀾訪談錄》將一如既往的堅(jiān)持記錄屬于這個(gè)時(shí)代的精神印跡，尋找這個(gè)時(shí)代所具有的獨(dú)特精神價(jià)值。

世界的寬度

十二年來，高端性和國(guó)際化一直是《楊瀾訪談錄》的節(jié)目特色。曾經(jīng)對(duì)話多國(guó)政要及國(guó)家領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人，也有一些在國(guó)際政壇上曾發(fā)揮重要影響力的政治人物。欄目曾在希拉里?克林頓作為國(guó)務(wù)卿首次訪華時(shí)獨(dú)家專訪她，也曾經(jīng)就萊溫斯基彈劾案追問美國(guó)前總統(tǒng)比爾?克林頓。在潘基文連任聯(lián)合國(guó)秘書長(zhǎng)后首次訪華時(shí)對(duì)其進(jìn)行了訪問。在與這些“大人物”的對(duì)話中，《楊瀾訪談錄》以國(guó)際化的視角試圖展現(xiàn)世界的寬度，并且通過犀利的問答和話題的銳度，折射出一個(gè)個(gè)特有的歷史瞬間。

理性的深度

《楊瀾訪談錄》也曾經(jīng)就重大歷史事件制作系列專題節(jié)目。2002年正值中美建交40周年之際采訪了美國(guó)前國(guó)務(wù)卿基辛格，就中美關(guān)系的“破冰之旅”進(jìn)行歷史的揭秘。在建國(guó)60周年之際制作世界看東方系列節(jié)目，走訪了七位國(guó)際政要，通過他們的口述從不同的角度來點(diǎn)評(píng)中國(guó)社會(huì)發(fā)生的巨大變遷。

面對(duì)這些在國(guó)際政治舞臺(tái)上頗具影響力的大人物，楊瀾和她的團(tuán)隊(duì)并沒有在訪談中止于中美關(guān)系、中英關(guān)系等宏大敘事的話題。經(jīng)過策劃，“楊訪”團(tuán)隊(duì)將對(duì)這一組大人物的訪談以時(shí)事熱點(diǎn)為經(jīng)度，以歷史縱深為緯度，從親歷者提供的鮮為人知的事實(shí)真相中還原出歷史流變的全景文本，打造了一組極具爆發(fā)力的獨(dú)家深度系列訪談——世界看東方。這樣的編排超越了與單個(gè)嘉賓的所謂重磅對(duì)話，梳理出思辨的邏輯，在大場(chǎng)面的背后，體現(xiàn)的是“楊訪”理性的深度。

人性的溫度

2011年，李亞鵬與王菲攜手做客《楊瀾訪談錄》，這是五年來他們首次共同受訪，被問及踏入這幾年的感受，向來少言的王菲很快地給出了兩個(gè)詞：踏實(shí)、安逸。

“楊訪”團(tuán)隊(duì)呈現(xiàn)給觀眾的，是與每一位嘉賓充滿人性溫度的細(xì)節(jié)互動(dòng)。在對(duì)張海迪的訪談中，節(jié)目臨近尾聲時(shí)，楊瀾提了這樣一個(gè)問題：“海倫?凱勒曾經(jīng)寫過一篇文章，《假如我有三天光明》，假如你能夠行走呢，你的愿望是什么?”

張海迪的回答平實(shí)而又真切：“我希望我也能夠像很多的女性一樣，在學(xué)校門口等等我的孩子。他老遠(yuǎn)地跑過來說，‘媽媽’。我會(huì)摟著他肩膀說，‘兒子，今天怎么樣?’”

2012年，《楊瀾訪談錄》團(tuán)隊(duì)在北戴河對(duì)王蒙的采訪進(jìn)行了將近兩個(gè)小時(shí)，楊瀾問到他對(duì)中國(guó)未來的擔(dān)憂時(shí)，王蒙說，“我并不那么悲觀，我覺得我們今天有可能把事情做得更好”。

《楊瀾訪談錄》的團(tuán)隊(duì)銳意求新，新的一年，全新的改版，不同的視角，我們?cè)噲D在這個(gè)瞬息萬變的信息潮流中為您捕捉重大新聞事件的焦點(diǎn)人物，在第一時(shí)間和新聞當(dāng)事人近距離獨(dú)家對(duì)話。我們不僅一如既往的關(guān)注變革時(shí)代的風(fēng)云人物，我們也會(huì)更為重視、努力尋找散發(fā)光彩的“小人物”；我們既要緊跟新聞事件，我們也關(guān)注被大眾媒體忽略的有故事的“默默無聞”的人們；我們既聚焦個(gè)人的精神內(nèi)核，但我們更關(guān)注他是否代表了時(shí)代的精神價(jià)值。

2013年，《楊瀾訪談錄》欄目改版后時(shí)長(zhǎng)將從原來的23分鐘增加到35分鐘，將會(huì)呈現(xiàn)出更多睿智的時(shí)代對(duì)話。欄目相信每個(gè)獨(dú)立而平凡的個(gè)體都有一種推動(dòng)社會(huì)進(jìn)步的力量，用自己的思想、言論和行為為這個(gè)時(shí)代留下難以磨滅的印跡。我們更期待能找到那些閃耀著時(shí)代精神價(jià)值的人們，和觀眾一起找尋那些為時(shí)代留下印跡的人物。2013，讓我們一起同行！

yang lan: the generation thats remaking china 楊瀾：重塑中國(guó)的一代

the night before i was heading for scotland, i was invited to host the final of chinas got talent show in shanghai with the 80,000 live audience in the stadium.guess who was the performing guest? susan boyle.and i told her, im going to scotland the next day.she sang beautifully, and she even managed to say a few words in chinese.[chinese:送你蔥] so its not like hello or thank you, that ordinary stuff.it means green onion for free.why did she say that? because it was a line from our chinese parallel susan boyle--a 50-some year-old woman, a vegetable vendor in shanghai, who loves singing western opera, but she didnt understand any english or french or italian, so she managed to fill in the lyrics with vegetable names in chinese.(laughter)and the last sentence of nessun dorma that she was singing in the stadium was green onion for free.so [as] susan boyle was saying that, 80,000 live audience sang together.that was hilarious.so i guess both susan boyle and this vegetable vendor in shanghai belonged to otherness.they were the least expected to be successful in the business called entertainment, yet their courage and talent brought them through.and a show and a platform gave them the stage to realize their dreams.well, being different is not that difficult.we are all different from different perspectives.but i think being different is good, because you present a different point of view.you may have the chance to make a difference.my generation has been very fortunate to witness and participate in the historic transformation of china that has made so many changes in the past 20, 30 years.i remember that in the year of 1990, when i was graduating from college, i was applying for a job in the sales department of the first five-star hotel in beijing, great wall sheraton--its still there.so after being interrogated by this japanese manager for a half an hour, he finally said, so, miss yang, do you have any questions to ask me? i summoned my courage and poise and said, yes, but could you let me know, what actually do you sell? i didnt have a clue what a sales department was about in a five-star hotel.that was the first day i set my foot in a five-star hotel.我這個(gè)年代的人是幸運(yùn)的我們目睹并參與了中國(guó)歷史性的變化.在過去的二，三十年里中國(guó)

發(fā)生了很多變化.我還記得1990年的時(shí)候.我剛好讀完大學(xué),我當(dāng)時(shí)申請(qǐng)了一個(gè)營(yíng)銷的工作地點(diǎn)是北京的一個(gè)五星級(jí)賓館,這個(gè)賓館現(xiàn)在還有,叫喜來登長(zhǎng)城飯店.在被一位日本經(jīng)理詢問了半小時(shí)之后,他在面試要結(jié)束時(shí)說,楊小姐，你有問題要問我嗎?我鼓起了勇氣，鎮(zhèn)定地問，你能不能告訴我,你們賣什么的?因?yàn)槲耶?dāng)時(shí)完全不知道一個(gè)五星級(jí)飯店的銷售部要做什么.那是我第一次走進(jìn)一家五星級(jí)飯店.與此同時(shí),我參加了由中國(guó)國(guó)家電臺(tái)舉辦的試聽會(huì)這是第一個(gè)向大眾開放的試聽會(huì)現(xiàn)場(chǎng)還有上千名的女大生.制作人告訴我們他們?cè)谡姨鹈溃瑔渭兒推恋男旅婵?當(dāng)輪到我的時(shí)候,我起身問道,為什么在電視上的女人一定要長(zhǎng)得漂亮，甜美，單純還要配合度高?為什么她們不能有自己的想法說自己的話?我以為我的話可能有點(diǎn)冒犯了評(píng)委.但我的話反而得到了他們的認(rèn)同.因此我進(jìn)入了第二回合,然后第三，第四.在第七回合比賽結(jié)束后,我戰(zhàn)勝了所有的選手.我也因此在加入了黃金檔的一個(gè)節(jié)目.你也許不敢相信,這個(gè)節(jié)目是中國(guó)第一個(gè)允許主持人表達(dá)他們自己的想法他們不需要念之前寫好的稿.（掌聲）我當(dāng)時(shí)每周的觀眾人數(shù)達(dá)到200-300萬.所以我今天的話題是關(guān)于年輕一代通過社交媒體的平臺(tái)來認(rèn)識(shí)他們.首先，他們是誰?長(zhǎng)得什么樣?照片上的女孩叫郭美美20歲，很漂亮.在她的微博上,她炫耀了自己的名牌包,衣服,還有車在她的微博上,微博是中國(guó)版的twitter.她還說自己是商會(huì)紅十字會(huì)在商會(huì)的一名經(jīng)理。她沒有想到她的舉動(dòng)引起了大眾的敏感導(dǎo)致了一場(chǎng)全國(guó)性的質(zhì)問,差一點(diǎn)變成一場(chǎng)針對(duì)紅十字會(huì)的騷亂.這場(chǎng)爭(zhēng)論非常激烈以至于紅十字會(huì)開了一場(chǎng)記者會(huì)來澄清郭美美事件,該事件也因此被調(diào)查.現(xiàn)今為止,公眾已知道郭美美給自己捏造了紅十字會(huì)經(jīng)理的職位也許是因?yàn)樗矚g慈善二字.她的那些奢侈品是男朋友送的禮物她的男友之前是一名董事會(huì)成員在商會(huì)紅十字會(huì)下屬的一個(gè)部門工作.這個(gè)解釋起來有點(diǎn)困難.盡管如此，公眾憤怒仍未平息.熱論還在進(jìn)行中.這個(gè)事件說明了民眾對(duì)政府機(jī)構(gòu)或是政府所支持的機(jī)構(gòu)的不信任,而這些機(jī)構(gòu)在過去都不夠透明.這個(gè)事件也說明了社交網(wǎng)站的力量和影響.微博就是個(gè)很好的例子.微博在2010年興起,訪客人數(shù)翻倍瀏覽時(shí)間更是之前的三倍.單是新浪網(wǎng),一個(gè)主要的新聞網(wǎng)站,就有超過1.4億的微博用戶.騰訊網(wǎng),2億.有最多人關(guān)注的用戶不是我是個(gè)電影女演員，她有超過九百五十萬的跟隨者,網(wǎng)上的叫法是粉絲.大約有80%的微博用戶都是年輕人,年齡在30歲以下.大家應(yīng)該都知道傳統(tǒng)媒體依然由政府控制,社交網(wǎng)站提供了一個(gè)平臺(tái)讓大家可以表達(dá)自己的不滿.因?yàn)槠渌钠脚_(tái)不多,來自社交網(wǎng)站的激憤有時(shí)可以變得非常強(qiáng)烈,非?；钴S甚至帶有暴力.通過微博,我們可以進(jìn)一步地了解在中國(guó)年輕的一代.但他們到底有什么不同之處?第一,他們大部分是80后和90后,出生在一胎化政策的年代.因?yàn)橛辛诉x擇性的流產(chǎn)很多家長(zhǎng)選擇要男不要女,后果就是現(xiàn)今男人的數(shù)量超出女人數(shù)量的3千萬.這個(gè)差別讓社會(huì)存在一種潛在危險(xiǎn),但沒人敢確定;因?yàn)槲覀兩钤谝粋€(gè)全球化的世界,男生們可以到其它國(guó)家找女友.年輕人里的大多數(shù)都受過不錯(cuò)的教育.中國(guó)這一代的文盲人數(shù)少于百分之一.在城市里,有80%的學(xué)生上大學(xué).但他們面對(duì)的是一個(gè)在變化的中國(guó)今年,年齡超過65的人口已經(jīng)達(dá)到百分之7點(diǎn)幾,到2030年人口老化會(huì)達(dá)到15%.大家也許知道我們的傳統(tǒng)是年輕的這一代有義務(wù)供養(yǎng)老的一代,在他們生病時(shí)候照顧他們.這意味著已成家的年輕人將需要供養(yǎng)4位父母他們的預(yù)期壽命是73歲.so making a living is not that easy for young people.college graduates are not in short supply.in urban areas, college graduates find the starting salary is about 400 u.s.dollars a month, while the average rent is above $500.so what do they do? they have to share space--squeezed in very limited space to save money--and they call themselves tribe of ants.and for those who are ready to get married and buy their apartment, they figured out they have to work for 30 to 40 years to afford their first apartment.that ratio in america would only cost a couple five years to earn, but in china its 30 to 40 years with the skyrocketing real estate price.年輕一代的日子不是那么好過.大學(xué)畢業(yè)生的供應(yīng)超過需求.在城市里,大學(xué)畢業(yè)生的起薪大約在400美金一個(gè)月,但平均的房屋每月租金超過500美金.那怎么辦呢?他們只能一起住擠在一個(gè)狹小的空間里就為了省錢他們稱自己為蟻?zhàn)?至于那些打算結(jié)婚還要買房的人,他們認(rèn)識(shí)到自己要打30-40年的工才能買得起一套住房.美國(guó)的比例是一對(duì)夫妻5年的薪水可買一套房,但在中國(guó)需要30-40年因?yàn)榉績(jī)r(jià)的高漲.在兩億的離鄉(xiāng)打工族中,60%是年輕人.他們覺得自己有點(diǎn)被夾在城市和鄉(xiāng)村之間.他們大多數(shù)都不想回農(nóng)村,但在城市他們沒有歸屬感.他們的工作時(shí)間長(zhǎng)薪水卻相對(duì)較少，社會(huì)福利也不多.很多因素都會(huì)影響他們像失業(yè),通貨膨脹,銀行貸款政策緊縮,人民幣升值,或是歐美國(guó)家對(duì)中國(guó)產(chǎn)品需求的下降.去年,一場(chǎng)悲劇在中國(guó)南方的設(shè)備生產(chǎn)工廠發(fā)生了:13名工人年紀(jì)在20歲左右自殺,就像是一場(chǎng)傳染病一樣.只是死亡原因不同.整個(gè)事件引起了社會(huì)的關(guān)注.大家開始關(guān)心這些工人身體和心理上的孤單.這些圖表顯示一個(gè)更概括的社會(huì)狀況.第一個(gè)是恩格爾系數(shù),它解釋了每天生活必需的花費(fèi)的百分比在過去的10年內(nèi),從家庭收入的角度來看,已經(jīng)下降到37%.但是在過去的兩年里,這個(gè)比例上漲到39%,這說明了生活花費(fèi)在上升.吉尼系數(shù)顯示已經(jīng)過了0.4的警戒線.現(xiàn)在是0.5比美國(guó)還差說明的收入不平等.你能看到整個(gè)社會(huì)都感到沮喪因?yàn)樗麄兪チ艘徊糠值牧鲃?dòng)性.同時(shí),針對(duì)富人和有權(quán)利人士的怨恨與憎恨開始蔓延.所以各種對(duì)腐敗或是官商勾結(jié)的指控都可造成社會(huì)的譴責(zé)甚至**.so through some of the hottest topics on microblogging, we can see what young people care most about.social justice and government accountability runs the first in what they demand.for the past decade or so, a massive urbanization and development have let us witness a lot of reports on the forced demolition of private property.and it has aroused huge anger and frustration among our young generation.sometimes people get killed, and sometimes people set themselves on fire to protest.so when these incidents are reported more and more frequently on the internet, people cry 篇二：楊瀾英語演講

because it was a line from our chinese parallel susan boyle--a 50-some year-old woman, a vegetable vendor in shanghai, who loves singing western opera, but she didnt understand any english or french or italian, so she managed to fill in the lyrics with vegetable names in chinese.(laughter)and the last sentence of nessun dorma that she was singing in the stadium was green onion for free.so [as] susan boyle was saying that, 80,000 live audience sang together.that was hilarious.so i guess both susan boyle and this vegetable vendor in shanghai belonged to otherness.they were the least expected to be successful in the business called entertainment, yet their courage and talent brought them through.and a show and a platform gave them the stage to realize their dreams.well, being different is not that difficult.we are all different from different perspectives.but i think being different is good, because you present a different point of view.you may have the chance to make a difference.my generation has been very fortunate to witness and participate in the historic transformation of china that has made so many changes in the past 20, 30 years.i remember that in the year of 1990,when i was graduating from college, i was applying for a job in the sales department of the first five-star hotel in beijing, great wall sheraton--its still there.so after being interrogated by this japanese manager for a half an hour, he finally said, so, miss yang, do you have any questions to ask me?i summoned my courage and poise and said,yes, but could you let me know, what actually do you sell? i didnt have a clue what a sales department was about in a five-star hotel.that was the first day i set my foot in a five-star hotel.my life, and i feel proud of that.but then we are also so fortunate to witness the transformation of the whole country.i was in beijings bidding for the olympic games.i was representing the shanghai expo.i saw china embracing the world and vice versa.but then sometimes im thinking, what are todays young generation up to? how are they different, and what are the differences they are going to make to shape the future of china, or at large, the world? so making a living is not that easy for young people.college graduates are not in short supply.in urban areas, college graduates find the starting salary is about 400 u.s.dollars a month, while the average rent is above $500.so what do they do? they have to share space--squeezed in very limited space to save money--and they call themselves tribe of ants.and for those who are ready to get married and buy their apartment, they figured out they have to work for 30 to 40 years to afford their first apartment.that ratio in americawould only cost a couple five years to earn, but in china its 30 to 40 years with the skyrocketing real estate price.so through some of the hottest topics on microblogging, we can see what young people care most about.social justice and government accountability runs the first in what they demand.for the past decade or so, a massive urbanization and development have let us witness a lot of reports on the forced demolition of private property.and it has aroused huge anger and frustrationamong our young generation.sometimes people get killed, and sometimes people set themselves on fire to protest.so when these incidents are reported more and more frequently on the internet,people cry for the government to take actions to stop this.so the good news is that earlier this year, the state council passed a new regulation on house requisition and demolition and passed the right to order forced demolition from local governments to the court.similarly, many other issues concerning public safety is a hot topic on the internet.we heard about polluted air, polluted water, poisoned food.and guess what, we have faked beef.they have sorts of ingredients that you brush on a piece of chicken or fish, and it turns it to look like beef.and then lately, people are very concerned about cooking oil, because thousands of people have been found [refining] cooking oil from restaurant slop.so all these things have aroused a huge outcry from the internet.and fortunately, we have seen the government responding more timely and also more frequently to the public concerns.while young people seem to be very sure about their participation in public policy-making, but sometimes theyre a little bit lost in terms of what they want for their personal life.china is soon to pass the u.s.as the number one market for luxury brands--thats not including the chinese expenditures in europe and elsewhere.but you know what, half of those consumers are earning a salary below 2,000 u.s.dollars.theyre not rich at all.theyre taking those bags and clothes as a sense of identity and social status.and this is a girl explicitly saying on a tv dating show that she would rather cry in a bmw than smile on a bicycle.but of course, we do have young people who would still prefer to smile, whether in a bmw or [on] a bicycle.so happiness is the most popular word we have heard through the past two years.happiness is not only related to personal experiences and personal values, but also, its about the environment.people are thinking about the following questions: are we going to sacrifice our environment further to produce higher gdp? how are we going to perform our social and political reform to keep pace with economic growth, to keep sustainability and stability? and also, how capable is the systemof self-correctness to keep more people contentwith all sorts of friction going on at the same time?i guess these are the questions people are going to answer.and our younger generation are going to transform this country while at the same time being transformed themselves.thank you very much.楊瀾ted演講：重塑中國(guó)的一代 中文演講稿

楊瀾TED演講稿

The night before I was heading for Scotland, I was invited to host the final of “China's Got Talent” show in Shanghai with the 80,000 live audience in the stadium.Guess who was the performing guest? Susan Boyle.And I told her, “I'm going to Scotland the next day.” She sang beautifully, and she even managed to say a few words in Chinese.[Chinese] So it's not like “hello” or “thank you,” that ordinary stuff.It means “green onion for free.” Why did she say that? Because it was a line from our Chinese parallel Susan Boyle--a 50-some year-old woman, a vegetable vendor in Shanghai, who loves singing Western opera, but she didn't understand any English or French or Italian, so she managed to fill in the lyrics with vegetable names in Chinese.(Laughter)And the last sentence of Nessun Dorma that she was singing in the stadium was “green onion for free.” So [as] Susan Boyle was saying that, 80,000 live audience sang together.That was hilarious.So I guess both Susan Boyle and this vegetable vendor in Shanghai belonged to otherness.They were the least expected to be successful in the business called entertainment, yet their courage and talent brought them through.And a show and a platform gave them the stage to realize their dreams.Well, being different is not that difficult.We are all different from different perspectives.But I think being different is good, because you present a different point of view.You may have the chance to make a difference.My generation has been very fortunate to witness and participate in the historic transformation of China that has made so many changes in the past 20, 30 years.I remember that in the year of 1990, when I was graduating from college, I was applying for a job in the sales department of the first five-star hotel in Beijing, Great Wall Sheraton--it's still there.So after being interrogated by this Japanese manager for a half an hour, he finally said, “So, Miss Yang, do you have any questions to ask me?” I summoned my courage and poise and said, “Yes, but could you let me know, what actually do you sell?” I didn't have a clue what a sales department was about in a five-star hotel.That was the first day I set my foot in a five-star hotel.Well after a few years, I decided to go to the U.S.and Columbia University to pursue my postgraduate studies, and then started my own media company, which was unthought of during the years that I started my career.So we do a lot of things.I've interviewed more than a thousand people in the past.And sometimes I have young people approaching me say, “Lan, you changed my life,” and I feel proud of that.But then we are also so fortunate to witness the transformation of the whole country.I was in Beijing's bidding for the Olympic Games.I was representing the Shanghai Expo.I saw China embracing the world and vice versa.But then sometimes I'm thinking, what are today's young generation up to? How are they different, and what are the differences they are going to make to shape the future of China, or at large, the world?

So today I want to talk about young people through the platform of social media.First of all, who are they? [What] do they look like? Well this is a girl called Guo Meimei--20 years old, beautiful.She showed off her expensive bags, clothes and car on her microblog, which is the Chinese version of Twitter.And she claimed to be the general manager of Red Cross at the Chamber of Commerce.She didn't realize that she stepped on a sensitive nerve and aroused national questioning, almost a turmoil, against the credibility of Red Cross.The controversy was so heated

that the Red Cross had to open a press conference to clarify it, and the investigation is going on.So far, as of today, we know that she herself made up that title--probably because she feels proud to be associated with charity.All those expensive items were given to her as gifts by her boyfriend, who used to be a board member in a subdivision of Red Cross at Chamber of Commerce.It's very complicated to explain.But anyway, the public still doesn't buy it.It is still boiling.It shows us a general mistrust of government or government-backed institutions, which lacked transparency in the past.And also it showed us the power and the impact of social media as microblog.Microblog boomed in the year of 2010, with visitors doubled and time spent on it tripled.Sina.com, a major news portal, alone has more than 140 million microbloggers.On Tencent, 200 million.The most popular blogger--it's not me--it's a movie star, and she has more than 9.5 million followers, or fans.About 80 percent of those microbloggers are young people, under 30 years old.And because, as you know, the traditional media is still heavily controlled by the government, social media offers an opening to let the steam out a little bit.But because you don't have many other openings, the heat coming out of this opening is sometimes very strong, active and even violent.So through microblogging, we are able to understand Chinese youth even better.So how are they different? First of all, most of them were born in the 80s and 90s, under the one-child policy.And because of selected abortion by families who favored boys to girls, now we have ended up with 30 million more young men than women.That could pose a potential danger to the society, but who knows;we're in a globalized world, so they can look for girlfriends from other countries.Most of them have fairly good education.The illiteracy rate in China among this generation is under one percent.In cities, 80 percent of kids go to college.But they are facing an aging China with a population above 65 years old coming up with seven-point-some percent this year, and about to be 15 percent by the year of 2030.And you know we have the tradition that younger generations support the elders financially, and taking care of them when they're sick.So it means young couples will have to support four parents who have a life expectancy of 73 years old.So making a living is not that easy for young people.College graduates are not in short supply.In urban areas, college graduates find the starting salary is about 400 U.S.dollars a month, while the average rent is above $500.So what do they do? They have to share space--squeezed in very limited space to save money--and they call themselves “tribe of ants.” And for those who are ready to get married and buy their apartment, they figured out they have to work for 30 to 40 years to afford their first apartment.That ratio in America would only cost a couple five years to earn, but in China it's 30 to 40 years with the skyrocketing real estate price.Among the 200 million migrant workers, 60 percent of them are young people.They find themselves sort of sandwiched between the urban areas and the rural areas.Most of them don't want to go back to the countryside, but they don't have the sense of belonging.They work for longer hours with less income, less social welfare.And they're more vulnerable to job losses, subject to inflation, tightening loans from banks, appreciation of the renminbi, or decline of demand from Europe or America for the products they produce.Last year, though, an appalling

incident in a southern OEM manufacturing compound in China: 13 young workers in their late teens and early 20s committed suicide, just one by one like causing a contagious disease.But they died because of all different personal reasons.But this whole incident aroused a huge outcry from society about the isolation, both physical and mental, of these migrant workers.For those who do return back to the countryside, they find themselves very welcome locally, because with the knowledge, skills and networks they have learned in the cities, with the assistance of the Internet, they're able to create more jobs, upgrade local agriculture and create new business in the less developed market.So for the past few years, the coastal areas, they found themselves in a shortage of labor.These diagrams show a more general social background.The first one is the Engels coefficient, which explains that the cost of daily necessities has dropped its percentage all through the past decade, in terms of family income, to about 37-some percent.But then in the last two years, it goes up again to 39 percent, indicating a rising living cost.The Gini coefficient has already passed the dangerous line of 0.4.Now it's 0.5--even worse than that in America--showing us the income inequality.And so you see this whole society getting frustrated about losing some of its mobility.And also, the bitterness and even resentment towards the rich and the powerful is quite widespread.So any accusations of corruption or backdoor dealings between authorities or business would arouse a social outcry or even unrest.So through some of the hottest topics on microblogging, we can see what young people care most about.Social justice and government accountability runs the first in what they demand.For the past decade or so, a massive urbanization and development have let us witness a lot of reports on the forced demolition of private property.And it has aroused huge anger and frustration among our young generation.Sometimes people get killed, and sometimes people set themselves on fire to protest.So when these incidents are reported more and more frequently on the Internet, people cry for the government to take actions to stop this.So the good news is that earlier this year, the state council passed a new regulation on house requisition and demolition and passed the right to order forced demolition from local governments to the court.Similarly, many other issues concerning public safety is a hot topic on the Internet.We heard about polluted air, polluted water, poisoned food.And guess what, we have faked beef.They have sorts of ingredients that you brush on a piece of chicken or fish, and it turns it to look like beef.And then lately, people are very concerned about cooking oil, because thousands of people have been found [refining] cooking oil from restaurant slop.So all these things have aroused a huge outcry from the Internet.And fortunately, we have seen the government responding more timely and also more frequently to the public concerns.While young people seem to be very sure about their participation in public policy-making, but sometimes they're a little bit lost in terms of what they want for their personal life.China is soon to pass the U.S.as the number one market for luxury brands--that's not including the Chinese expenditures in Europe and elsewhere.But you know what, half of those consumers are earning a salary below 2,000 U.S.dollars.They're not rich at all.They're taking those bags and clothes as a

sense of identity and social status.And this is a girl explicitly saying on a TV dating show that she would rather cry in a BMW than smile on a bicycle.But of course, we do have young people who would still prefer to smile, whether in a BMW or [on] a bicycle.So in the next picture, you see a very popular phenomenon called “naked” wedding, or “naked” marriage.It does not mean they will wear nothing in the wedding, but it shows that these young couples are ready to get married without a house, without a car, without a diamond ring and without a wedding banquet, to show their commitment to true love.And also, people are doing good through social media.And the first picture showed us that a truck caging 500 homeless and kidnapped dogs for food processing was spotted and stopped on the highway with the whole country watching through microblogging.People were donating money, dog food and offering volunteer work to stop that truck.And after hours of negotiation, 500 dogs were rescued.And here also people are helping to find missing children.A father posted his son's picture onto the Internet.After thousands of [unclear], the child was found, and we witnessed the reunion of the family through microblogging.So happiness is the most popular word we have heard through the past two years.Happiness is not only related to personal experiences and personal values, but also, it's about the environment.People are thinking about the following questions: Are we going to sacrifice our environment further to produce higher GDP? How are we going to perform our social and political reform to keep pace with economic growth, to keep sustainability and stability? And also, how capable is the system of self-correctness to keep more people content with all sorts of friction going on at the same time? I guess these are the questions people are going to answer.And our younger generation are going to transform this country while at the same time being transformed themselves.Thank you very much.

The night before I was heading for Scotland, I was invited to host the final of “China’s Got Talent” show”中國(guó)達(dá)人秀“ in Shanghai with the 80,000 live audiences in the stadium.Guess who was the performing guest? Susan Boyle.And I told her, “I’m going to Scotland the next day.” She sang beautifully, and she even managed to say a few words in Chinese.[Chinese] So it’s not like “hello” or “thank you,” that ordinary stuff.It means “green onion for free.” Why did she say that? Because it was a line from our Chinese parallel Susan Boyle中國(guó)版的“蘇珊大媽” — a 50-some year-old woman, a vegetable vendor in Shanghai, who loves singing Western opera西方歌劇, but she didn’t understand any English or French or Italian, so she managed to fill in the lyrics with vegetable names in Chinese.(Laughter)And the last sentence of Nessun Dorma《圖蘭朵》 that she was singing in the stadium was “green onion for free.” So [as] Susan Boyle was saying that, 80,000 live audience sang together.That was hilarious歡鬧的.So I guess both Susan Boyle and this vegetable vendor in Shanghai belonged to otherness不同.They were the least expected 最不可能to be successful in the business called entertainment, yet their courage and talent brought them through.And a show and a platform gave them the stage to realize their dreams.Well, being different is not that difficult.We are all different from different perspectives從不同的方面審視.But I think being different is good, because you present a different point of view.You may have the chance to make a difference.My generation has been very fortunate to witness and participate in the historic transformation of China that has made so many changes in the past 20, 30 years.I remember that in the year of 1990,when I was graduating from college, I was applying for a job in the sales department of the first five-star hotel in Beijing, Great Wall Sheraton--it's still there.So after being interrogated by this Japanese manager for a half an hour, he finally said, “So, Miss Yang, do you have any questions to ask me?”I summoned my courage and poise and said,“Yes, but could you let me know, what actually do you sell?” I didn't have a clue what a sales department was about in a five-star hotel.That was the first day I set my foot in a five-star hotel.Around the same time, I was going through an audition--the first ever open audition by national television in China--with another thousand college girls.The producer told us they were looking for some sweet, innocent and beautiful fresh face.So when it was my turn, I stood up and said, “Why [do] women's personalities on television always have to be beautiful, sweet, innocent and, you know, supportive? Why can't they have their own ideas and their own voice?” I thought I kind of offended them.But actually, they were impressed by my words.And so I was in the second round of competition, and then the third and the fourth.After seven rounds of competition, I was the last one to survive it.So I was on a national television prime-time show.And believe it or not, that was the first show on Chinese television that allowed its hosts to speak out of their own minds without reading an approved script.(Applause)And my weekly audience at that time was between 200 to 300 million people.Well after a few years, I decided to go to the U.S.and Columbia University to pursue my postgraduate studies, and then started my own media company, which was unthought of during the years that I started my career.So we do a lot of things.I've interviewed more than a thousand people in the past.And sometimes I have young people approaching me say, “Lan, you changed my life,” and I feel proud of that.But then we are also so fortunate to witness the transformation of the whole country.I was in Beijing's bidding for the Olympic Games.I was representing the Shanghai Expo.I saw China embracing the world and vice versa.But then sometimes I'm thinking, what are today's young generation up to?

They have to share space--squeezed in very limited space to save money--and they call themselves “tribe of ants.” And for those who are ready to get married and buy their apartment, they figured out they have to work for 30 to 40 years to afford their first apartment.That ratio in Americawould only cost a couple five years to earn, but in China it's 30 to 40 years with the skyrocketing real estate price.Among the 200 million migrant workers, 60 percent of them are young people.They find themselves sort of sandwiched between the urban areas and the rural areas.Most of them don't want to

find themselves very welcome locally,because with the knowledge, skills and networksthey have learned in the cities, with the assistance of the Internet, they're able to create more jobs,upgrade local agriculture and create new businessin the less developed market.So for the past few years, the coastal areas, they found themselves in a shortage of labor.These diagrams show a more general social background.The first one is the Engels coefficient,which explains that the cost of daily necessitieshas dropped its percentage all through the past decade, in terms of family income, to about 37-some percent.But then in the last two years, it goes up again to 39 percent, indicating a rising living cost.The Gini coefficient has already passed the dangerous line of 0.4.Now it's 0.5--even worse than that in America--showing us the income inequality.And so you see this whole society getting frustrated about losing some of its mobility.And also, the bitterness and even resentment towards the rich and the powerful is quite widespread.So any accusations of corruptionor backdoor dealings between authorities or business would arouse a social outcry or even unrest.So through some of the hottest topics on microblogging, we can see what young people care most about.Social justice and government accountability runs the first in what they demand.For the past decade or so, a massive urbanization and development have let us witness a lot of reports on the forced demolition of private property.And it has aroused huge anger and frustrationamong our young generation.Sometimes people get killed, and sometimes people set themselves on fire to protest.So when these incidents are reported more and more frequently on the Internet,people cry for the government to take actions to stop this.So the good news is that earlier this year, the state council passed a new regulation on house requisition and demolition and passed the right to order forced demolition from local governments to the court.Similarly, many other issues concerning public safety is a hot topic on the Internet.We heard about polluted air, polluted water, poisoned food.And guess what, we have faked beef.They have sorts of ingredients that you brush on a piece of chicken or fish, and it turns it to look like beef.And then lately, people are very concerned about cooking oil, because thousands of people have been found [refining] cooking oil from restaurant slop.So all these things have aroused a huge outcry from the Internet.And fortunately, we have seen the government responding more timely and also more frequently to the public concerns.While young people seem to be very sure about their participation in public policy-making, but sometimes they're a little bit lost in terms of what they want for their personal life.China is soon to pass the U.S.as the number one market for luxury brands--that's not including the Chinese expenditures in Europe and elsewhere.But you know what, half of those consumers are earning a salary below 2,000 U.S.dollars.They're not rich at all.They're taking those bags and clothes as a sense of identity and social status.And this is a girl explicitly saying on a TV dating show that she would rather cry in a BMW than smile on a bicycle.But of course, we do have young people who would still prefer to smile, whether in a BMW or [on] a bicycle.So in the next picture, you see a very popular phenomenon called “naked” wedding, or “naked” marriage.It does not mean they will wear nothing in the wedding, but it shows that these young couples are ready to get married without a house, without a car, without a diamond ring and without a wedding banquet, to show their commitment to true love.And also, people are doing good through social media.And the first picture showed us that a truck caging 500 homeless and kidnapped dogsfor food processing was spotted and stopped on the highway with the whole country watchingthrough microblogging.People were donating money, dog food and offering volunteer work to stop that truck.And after hours of negotiation, 500 dogs were rescued.And here also people are helping to find missing children.A father posted his son's picture onto the Internet.After thousands of [unclear], the child was found, and we witnessed the reunion of the family through microblogging.So happiness is the most popular word we have heard through the past two years.Happiness is not only related to personal experiences and personal values, but also, it's about the environment.People are thinking about the following questions: Are we going to sacrifice our environment further to produce higher GDP? How are we going to perform our social and political reform to keep pace with economic growth, to keep sustainability and stability? And also, how capable is the systemof self-correctness to keep more people contentwith all sorts of friction going on at the same time?I guess these are the questions people are going to answer.And our younger generation are going to transform this country while at the same time being transformed themselves.Thank you very much.
