第三篇：口譯英漢對照

The instant messaging craze began in America about five or six years ago when I was in my freshman year of college.美國興起在線實時信息傳遞的狂熱大約始于五、六年前，那時我剛上大學。

At first I didn’t know what it was about.But it didn’t take long before I was hooked on instant messaging.I began talking on line whenever I could.開始我對什么是網(wǎng)上聊天還一無所知，但我很快就明白了，沒多久就對網(wǎng)上聊天著了迷，只要有時間我就網(wǎng)上聊天。

AsI added more and more people to my “buddy list”, others were doing the same.Instant messaging really picked up, and soon “everyone was doing it.”

那時我剛上大學當我把越來越多的人加到我的“網(wǎng)友名單”上時，其他人也在做同樣的事。網(wǎng)上聊天真是越來越普遍，很快就“人人為之”了。

I credit my typing skills to many many hours of talking on line.Unfortunately, as my typing speed increased, my grammar went out the window.我的打字技能應歸功于長時間的網(wǎng)上聊天。然而令人遺憾的是，當我的打字速度提高后，一切語法規(guī)則也丟掉了。

You see, instant messengers have their own shorthand language.Grammar isn't important.要知道，網(wǎng)上聊天有他們自己的速記語言，語法并不重要。Gradually the instant messaging craze in America died down a bit, and so did my own enthusiasm for it.Then I came to China.漸漸地，網(wǎng)上聊天的狂熱在美國降了溫，之后我就來到了中國。Here I discovered not one but two instant messaging crazes.The first, which brought back memories of my previous addiction to the computer, was QQ.So now the cycle has started again.在這里，我發(fā)現(xiàn)對在線實時信息的狂熱不是一種而是兩種，第一種就是QQ，它讓我回想起當年的癡迷。因此，那個循環(huán)又重新開始了。In addition to QQ, there is another, perhaps more widespread, messaging trend.You guessed it: cellphone text messaging.For the first few months of my stay in China, I didn't have a cellphone, so I wasn't affected.在QQ之外，還有一種恐怕是更為流行的快速傳遞信息的潮流，你一定猜到了—手機短信。

I recently bought one, however, and now understand how useful text messaging is and why it is so common.我在中國的頭幾個月沒有手機，也就與之沒有關聯(lián)。但最近我買了一個手機，才知道了手機短信是多么有用，以及其廣為流行的原因。I admit that I have been guilty of sending text messages while walking outside or sitting on the subway.Who hasn't? 我承認當我走在外面或坐在地鐵里發(fā)送短信息時有點不好意思，但有誰不這樣做？

No matter where I go, I see people on their cellphones, messaging.In fact, it's rare to see someone actually talking on their phone!

無論我走到哪兒，都能看到人們在手機上收發(fā)短信。實際上，倒是很少看到誰拿著手機在講話。

So it looks as if there's no escaping the instant-messaging craze, no matter where I go in the world.看來，無論我走到世界的什么地方，都無法逃避實時信息傳遞的狂熱。And that's plainly not going to change.顯然，這個潮流不會改變。

In the end, though, I can't complain: instant messaging is quick, it's cheap, it's easy and it's pretty darn fun too.And abve all, everybody is doing it.然而，最終我并不對此抱怨。因為實時信息傳遞又快又便宜，又簡單又非常有趣。再說了，每個人都在這么做啊。

對于全世界的華人來說，農(nóng)歷新年，又稱春節(jié)，是全年最重要的喜慶節(jié)日。

To people of Chinese descent around the world, the Lunar New Year(also called Spring Festival)is undoubtedly the most important festival of the year.這個華人傳統(tǒng)源自大約3，000年前，它代表著舊的一年平安過去了，人們準備大肆慶祝和迎接新的一年。

Dating back 3,000 years, it celebrates the passing of a peaceful year and welcome the new one.除夕夜的團圓飯是整個年頭里最具有意義的一餐。所有大家庭的成員都會聚集一堂，遠在他鄉(xiāng)的也會盡量趕回來。

The reunion dinner, eaten on New Year’s Eve, is de rigueur, with members of the extended family gathering for the most significant meal of the year.Even the absent members will endeavor to return home in time for it.團圓飯顯示了家庭在華人文化里的重要地位，它可以增強家庭凝聚力。

It undercores the superme importance of the family in Chinese culture, and aims at strengthening the sense of togetherness and cohesion.人們慶祝新年的方式，體現(xiàn)了兩個重要的核心價值觀。The way people celebrate the New Year embodies two important core values.首先，多代同堂的家庭成員，齊聚家中享受一頓豐盛的團圓飯，是每一個人都會遵守的習慣。

The first value is the sense of family togetherness;members of multi-generation families are all there to have a big reunion dinner.Everyone will follow this custom.準備一頓豐富晚餐的工作當然是落在家中女成員的身上，比較富裕的家庭則可能有傭人幫忙。

The female members are always held responsible for preparing the dinner, and some rich families may take on extra hands.其次，親戚朋友間也會興高采烈互訪。這樣的歡慶方式，有助于加強親情和友情。

The second value lies in the happy visits mutually made between friends and relatives, a good way to strengthen kinship and friendship.然而，經(jīng)濟的發(fā)展帶來了人們生活方式的改變。

However, economic development has resulted in some changes in lifestyles.忙碌了一年，人們不愿在過年的時候還要忙年夜飯，越來越多的人寧愿花錢在高級的餐館吃，親朋好友之間也不再登門拜訪，代之以電話、短信拜年。

After a busy year people are tired of preparing for the reunion dinner, and would rather hold their reunion dinner in posh restaurants, despite the exorbitant costs.The festival door-to-door visits have give way to greetings via telephone or text messages.有的舉家出游，甚至干脆住進酒店“避年”，避免親戚朋友造訪，圖個清凈。

Some families even go to extremes as to travel and seek temporary refuge in a hotel as to avoid being visited.有的傳統(tǒng)人士認為，沒有了團圓飯和親戚朋友互訪的習俗和它們所代表的核心價值觀，新年將失去意義。

Some tradition-minded people regard the reunion dinner and visits to relatives and close friends during the New Year as core values, without which the holiday would lose much of its significance.有一些悲觀的人士認為隨著西方文化的不斷入侵，中國的傳統(tǒng)佳節(jié)都在逐漸失去本來的意義，變成一個個商業(yè)性的節(jié)日，就像圣誕節(jié)一樣。

Some pessimistics contend that, as the popularity of western culture grows, Chinese traditional festivals gradually lose their original meaning and degenerate into commerce festivals like Christmas.春節(jié)是中華文化遺產(chǎn)的重要部分，新春活動將延續(xù)下去，慶祝的形式雖然會和以前不一樣，但他們代表的核心價值觀，即對親情和友情的重視則應該保留。

The Spring Festival is an important part of the Chinese cultural heritage, and it would continue to be celebrated.The modes of celebration may change, but the core value should be sustained that of respect for kinship and friendship.de rigueur: means required , standard custom.It makes better sense than to say “ it’s the most important meal in the year.” 顯示：to show, to reflect, or to underscore.圖個清靜：to have the peace of mind, to escape from the crowd 傳統(tǒng)人士：conservative or tradition-minded people 慶祝的形式/方式：modes of celebration, ways of celebration 4.3

第五篇：會議口譯原文及譯文

英譯漢原文及參考譯文

In the space of a single generation, relations between the United Kingdom and the People’s Republic of China have been transformed.Government-to-government and business-to-business links are closer and more varied than ever before.//

But the most exciting changes have been in the links between the British and Chinese peoples.Chinese communities have long existed as a respected and cherished presence in British cities.//

But today, more and more British people are visiting China to see for themselves the new dynamism of great cites like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou.We are re-discovering China’s incomparably rich cultural heritage, as well as its immense economic potential.//

The Chinese are re-discovering Britain, too.We are

delighted to welcome more Chinese visitors to our country each year.Many more Chinese are finding out about Britain through modern media like television and the Internet.//

Indeed, there are more Chinese people learning the English language than there are native speakers of English in the world today.This growing relationship is measurable, too, in financial terms.British firms now have a huge presence in China, a sign of their confidence in the country and its future.//

The UK is the largest European 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.//

The UK is China’s second largest European trading partner.British exports to China last year, at ￡3.72 billion were up 17% on the year 2000.China’s exports to Britain are at an all-time high.Many Chinese enterprises now regard Britain’s flexible and open economy has an ideal launching pad into the wider European market.//

All this is a far cry from 1972, when the UK and the PRC– 1 在短短一代人的時間內(nèi)，英國和中華人民共和國之間的關系已經(jīng)發(fā)生了徹底的變化。政府之間、商界之間的關系從未像如今這樣緊密、多樣。// 但是，最令人興奮的變化當屬英中兩國人民之間的聯(lián)系。華人社區(qū)在英國城市中長久以來都受到尊重和珍視。// 但是今天，越來越多的英國人訪問中國，親眼目睹像北京、上海、廣州這樣的大城市的新活力。我們正在重新發(fā)現(xiàn)中國無與倫比、豐富多彩的文化遺產(chǎn)以及她巨大的經(jīng)濟潛力。// 中國人也正在重新發(fā)現(xiàn)英國。我們每年都很高興地歡迎越來越多的中國客人來訪。通過電視和因特網(wǎng)這樣的現(xiàn)代媒體了解英國的中國人大大增加。// 毫不夸張地說，當今世界上學習英語的中國人已經(jīng)超過了以英語為母語的人了。這種關系的發(fā)展也可以從經(jīng)濟角度來衡量。英國公司現(xiàn)在在中國有很大的規(guī)模。這表明他們對中國及其未來的信心。// 英國是歐洲在華的最大投資國。英國的BP公司在中國的投資超過了其他任何一家外國公司。中國西部最大的外國制造業(yè)投資也來自英國。// 英國是中國在歐洲的第二大貿(mào)易伙伴。去年英國對華出口額達37.2億英鎊，比前年增長17%。中國對英國的出口達創(chuàng)紀錄水平。許多中國企業(yè)現(xiàn)在把英國靈活、開放的經(jīng)濟看作進軍更大的歐洲市場的理想跳板。// 這一切與1972年英中兩國首次互換大使時的情景大不相同。當時，英國

first exchanged ambassadors.Then, there were virtually no Chinese students in Britain.Today, there are over 20,000 – one of the largest overseas communities at our universities.//

幾乎沒有中國學生，而今天有兩萬多，是英國大學中人數(shù)最多的海外群體。//

1972年，北京和倫敦之間沒有直接通

Then, there were no direct air services between Beijing 航。而今年，將有25萬多名英國游and London.This year, more than a quarter of a million 客前往中國。1972年，在位英國首相British tourists will travel to China.Then, no serving British 或外交大臣中沒有人訪問中國。而去Prime Minister or Foreign Secretary had ever visited China.Last year, there were visits from 11 British

ministers.//

The changing nature of international relations requires governments to work ever more closely together for their mutual benefit.In the globalized world economy, the security and prosperity of individual countries often

depends on events beyond our borders.//

We are interdependent as well as independent.Challenges such as fighting environmental damage, ensuring global human rights are properly observed, removing barriers to trade and investment, and reducing

poverty, have become truly global issues.//

They loom larger on the agendas of multilateral organizations like the UN, the WTO and ASEM.In the 21st century, bilateral relations between countries will depend on progress on issues like these.//

As two of the five permanent members of the UN Security Council, our governments work together on a daily basis on problems affecting every corner of the world.Another change in the relationship between Britain and China has been developments in Hong Kong.I am delighted that Hong Kong has prospered since 1997, and that “One Country, Two Systems” is proving such an effective approach.//

As a signatory of the Joint Declaration, the UK has an abiding interest in the continued well-being of the Special Administrative Region.But this is only a part of our wider commitment to China.We are increasing the resources we allocate through our Department for International Development to poverty reduction in China from ￡25 million this year to ￡60 million by 2004.年，英國有11位大臣到訪中國。// 國際事務性質(zhì)的變化，要求政府之間出于相互利益而更加緊密地合作。在全球化的經(jīng)濟中，每個國家的安全和繁榮經(jīng)常受制于國界之外發(fā)生的事件。// 我們既相互獨立，又相互依賴。對付環(huán)境破壞，確保全球人權得到應有的尊重，撤除貿(mào)易和投資障礙，減少貧困，這些挑戰(zhàn)都已經(jīng)成為名副其實的全球問題。// 在聯(lián)合國、世界貿(mào)易組織和亞歐會議這樣的多邊組織的日程上面，這些問

題顯得越來越嚴重。在21世紀，國家之間的雙邊關系將取決于在這些問題上取得的進展。// 作為聯(lián)合國安理會五大常任理事國

中的兩國，我們雙方政府每天都在相互合作，處理影響到世界各地的問題。英中兩國關系的另一變化是香港問題的發(fā)展。令我感到高興的是，香港自1997年回歸以來，繼續(xù)保持繁榮，這證明了“一國兩制”是非常有效的辦法。// 作為《聯(lián)合聲明》的簽約國，英國對

香港特別行政區(qū)保持良好狀況各與長期的關注。但這只是我們對中國更廣泛承諾的一部分。我們通過國際發(fā)展部，把用于中國扶貧項目的撥款資金從今年的2500萬英鎊，增加到2004年的6000萬英鎊。

漢譯英原文及參考譯文

主席先生：今年，對于中國來說，Mr.President, For China, this has been a special year.We 是不平凡的一年。我們經(jīng)歷了兩件大事：第一件事是汶川特大地震災害造成了巨大的生命財產(chǎn)損失。中國人民在災難面前表現(xiàn)了堅強、勇敢、團結和不屈不撓的精神。目前，受災群眾得到了妥善安置，恢復重建工作正在有條不紊地展開。//

第二件事是北京奧運會成功舉辦。這一體育盛會不僅為來自世界各地的運動員展示風采創(chuàng)造了良好的條件，而且讓世界更多地了解中國，讓中國更多地了解世界。//

在抗震救災和舉辦奧運會的過程中，我們得到了國際社會的廣泛理解、支持和幫助。在此，我代表中國政府和人民表示誠摯的感謝。//

世界都在關注北京奧運會后中國政治經(jīng)濟走向。我可以明確地告訴大家，中國將繼續(xù)堅定不移地走和平發(fā)展道路，繼續(xù)堅持改革開放不動搖，繼續(xù)貫徹獨立自主的和平外交政策。這符合中國人民的根本利益，也符合世界人民的根本利益，順應世界潮流。// 這次北京奧運會是在中國這樣一個最大的發(fā)展中國家舉行的。國際社會對中國政府和人民為此做出的努力給予了高度評價。奧運會的成功舉辦，使中國人民受到了極大的鼓舞，增強了實現(xiàn)現(xiàn)代化的信心和力量。//

同時，我們清醒地看到，中國有13億人口，雖然經(jīng)濟總量已經(jīng)位experienced two major events.One was the devastating earthquake in Wenchuan, which caused grave losses of life and property.In the face of the disaster, the Chinese people showed great strength, courage, solidarity and resilience.By now, the people affected by the earthquake have been properly relocated and recovery and reconstruction work is well underway.//

The other was the successful hosting of the Beijing Olympic Games.This grand sporting event provided a good

opportunity for athletes from around the world to show true sportsmanship.It also enabled the world to learn more about China and China more about the world.//

In our fight against the earthquake disaster and our efforts to host the Games, we received understanding, support and assistance from the international community.I wish to take this opportunity to express sincere gratitude on behalf of the Chinese Government and people.//

Now the whole world wants to know in what direction China is heading, both politically and economically, after the Beijing Olympic Games.Let me tell you in unequivocal terms that China will remain committed to the path of peaceful

development, unswervingly pursuer reform and opening-up, and continue to adhere to an independent foreign policy of peace.This is in the fundamental interests of the Chinese people and the people of all other countries.It is also in keeping with the trend of the world.//

The just concluded Olympic Games was held in China, the largest developing country in the world.The international community has highly commended the efforts made by the Chinese Government and people for the Games.And its success has greatly inspired the Chinese people and given them even more confidence and strength to achieve modernization of the country.//

At the same time, however, we are soberly aware that China is

a country with 1.3 billion people.Though its total GDP is one of the highest in the world, it trails behind more than 100

居世界前列，但人均收入水平仍排在世界100位之后，城鄉(xiāng)發(fā)展和區(qū)域發(fā)展很不平衡，農(nóng)村特別是西部地區(qū)農(nóng)村還很落后，還有數(shù)以千萬計的人口沒有解決溫飽。//

中國仍然是一個發(fā)展中國家，生產(chǎn)力不發(fā)達的狀況沒有根本改變，進一步發(fā)展還受到資源、能源、環(huán)境等瓶頸的制約。中國的社會主義市場經(jīng)濟體制還不完善，民主法制還不健全，一些社會問題還比較突出。// 中國實現(xiàn)現(xiàn)代化的任務還很繁重，道路還很漫長。擺在我們面前的機遇和挑戰(zhàn)都是空前的。抓住機遇，迎接挑戰(zhàn)，聚精會神搞建設，一心一意謀發(fā)展，這就是中國政府和中國人民的理念和行動。//

中國發(fā)展靠什么？靠改革開放。今年是中國改革開放30周年。今天，中國人更從30年改革開放的切身經(jīng)驗中體會到，只有全面而持久地擴大對外開放，才是國家富強和民族繁榮的正確道路。這不但是實踐探索的結論，也是歷史經(jīng)驗的總結。//

主席先生：世界需要和平，和平才能發(fā)展。中國要實現(xiàn)自己的發(fā)展目標，渴望有一個和平的國際環(huán)境。中國政府堅定不移地奉行獨立自主的和平外交政策，愿同各國加強合作，共同促進人類和平與發(fā)展的崇高事業(yè)。

countries in terms of per capita income.Development between urban and rural areas and among different regions in China is unbalanced.The rural areas, particularly those in western China, are underdeveloped.Tens of millions of Chinese lack adequate food and clothing.//

China is still a developing country, where productivity remains low and further development is constrained by the shortage of resources and energy and environmental consequences.Our socialist market economic system, democracy and the rule of law need to be further improved, and certain outstanding social issues are yet to be resolved.//

To achieve China’s modernization is a daunting task and we still have a long way to go.Both the opportunities and

challenges that we face are unprecedented.We will seize the opportunities, rise up to challenges, dedicate ourselves to nation-building and focus on development.This is what the Chinese Government and people have been thinking and doing.//

People may ask: How does China achieve its development? The answer is through reform and opening-up.This year

marks the 30th anniversary of China’s reform and opening-up policy.The Chinese people have learned from 30 years of reform and opening-up that only continued opening-up in an all-round way can lead the country to greater national strength and prosperity.This is the conclusion we have drawn both from our practice and exploration and from historical experiences.// Mr.President, The world needs peace, for only with peace can

there be development.China earnestly hopes to have a peaceful international environment in order to achieve its

development goals.The Chinese Government is committed to an independent foreign policy of peace and stands ready to work with other countries to advance the noble cause of peace and progress of mankind.
