Day 25 改革开放 【外交】

了解中国历史的人都知道,中国目前的状况是历史上最好的。同过去相比，我们有充分的言论自由。有个海外的朋友告诉我，他在访问北京后发现那里的人敢说任何事。他们谈论政府的政策，有表示赞同的，也有提出批评的。中国现在更加开放。当然，每个民族有自己的民族特点，这些特点应该受到别人的尊重。中华民族有自己的思维方式和生活方式，应该受到其他民族的尊重。

Anyone who knows about Chinese history believes that the current human rights situation in China is the best in history. Compared with the past, we are very free in speech. An overseas friend told me that after he visited Beijing he discovered that people there would dare say anything. They talked about the central government‘s policies, and praised or criticized them. China is now opening even wider. Of course, each nationality has its own national features which should be respected. The Chinese nation also has its own mode of thinking and life, which should be respected by other nations.

中国政府一直十分重视人权问题，并按普遍原则和具体国情为人权的改善付出了很大的努力。20年的改革开放大大改善了中国人民的物质生活。此外，随着国家民主法治建设的日趋完善，中国人民在民主监督参政议政和宗教信仰等方面享有更多的政治权利。迄今为止，中国已加入了18项有关人权的国际公约，其中包括《经济、实惠与文化权利国际公约》和《公民权利与政治权利国际公约》。中国将继续努力促进进步，并愿意为全球的人权事业作出应有的贡献。

The Chinese government has always attached great importance to the issue of human rights and made great efforts in improving human rights according to the general principles and concrete national conditions. 20 years of reform and opening up have witnessed great improvement in the material life of the Chinese people. Moreover, with the increasing perfection of the nation‘s democratic and legal construction, they are enjoying more political rights in democratic supervision, participation in and discussion on politics and religious belief. China has so far signed 18 international agreements on human rights, including the Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights and the Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, China will continue to make efforts to promote progress in human rights, and is willing to make its due contribution to the cause of global human rights.

词组：

• 充分的言论自由：be very free in speech

• 一个海外的朋友：an overseas friend (与foreign friend有一点区别)

• 发现：discover （其他：found）

• 敢说任何事：dare say anything

• 论政府的政策：the central government’s policies （central）

• 更加开放:open even wider （more open than before）

• 有自己的民族特:has its own national/ethnic features

• 思维方式和生活方式: mode of thinking and life

• 一直 has always （用时态表示）

• 《公民权利与政治权利国际公约》： the Covenant on Civil and Political Rights

• 继续努力：continue to make efforts

• 全球的人权事业： the cause of global human rights.

• 作出应有的贡献make its due contribution to

句型：

• 20年的改革开放大大改善了中国人民的物质生活。20 years of reform and opening up have witnessed great improvement in the material life of the Chinese people.（使用witness很棒~句式的转换，二阶思维）

备注：

• 当然，每个民族有自己的民族特点，这些特点应该受到别人的尊重。中华民族有自己的思维方式和生活方式，应该受到其他民族的尊重。 Of course, each nationality has its own national features which should be respected. The Chinese nation also has its own mode of thinking and life, which should be respected by other nations. （民族这个词的翻译很容易走入陷阱，这里处理的很到位nationality：国籍；民族。Nation：国家，民族；国民。 Ethniity：种族，民族。看似都是民族，其实含义大不同。中华民族：the Chinese nation）

Day 26 中国的国防和军事战略 【外交】

中国的社会主义制度和独立自主的和平外交政策，也决定了中国奉行积极防御的国防政策和军事战略方针。中国不搞霸权主义，不搞强权政治，不对外搞军事扩张。中国的战略疆界不会超出其自然疆界，中国军事力量的发展也不会超出防御和自卫的需要。中国多次进行裁军，充分显示了中国军事战略的和平宗旨和防御性质，同时也反映了在和平与发展的时代主题下，中国的理性战略思维和新的安全观念。

Meanwhile, China‘s socialist system and independent foreign policy of peace have determined the country‘s national defense policy and military strategy to be one of active defense. China does not seek hegemony and power politics, neither does it expand its military influence overseas. China‘s strategic frontier will not go beyond its natural borders. Likewise, China‘s military force will not develop in excess of its need to defend the country. China‘s repeated disarmament has fully demonstrated to the world the peaceful orientation and defensive nature of China‘s military strategy, as well as China‘s rational strategic military thinking and updated concept of security under the theme of our times, that is, peace and development.

中国的裁军决策是由中国主动做出的，不是屈服于任何人的压力而被迫作出的；是自觉的，不是盲目的；是以对中国的发展、亚太地区安全以及世界持久和平高度负责的精神而采取的建设性举措。中国的裁军行动是单方面的，没有设置任何前提，不与他国相联系，不把裁军作为迫使他国同时裁军的筹码或先决条件。中国的裁军不是象征性的，而是实质性的，是大幅度的。中国以自己多次裁军实际行动表达了中国不参加军备竞赛、努力缔造和平的诚意。

China‘s disarmament decision is made out of its own will, rather than under any external pressure. It is a conscious act, rather than a blind move; it is a constructive act taken out of a high sense of responsibility for China‘s own development, the security of Asian-Pacific region and the sustainable world peace. China‘s disarmament act is unilateral, carrying no prerequisite, having nothing to do with any other country. China has no intention whatsoever to use disarmament as a means or prerequisite to force other countries to reduce their military troops with China. China‘s disarmament is not symbolic, but actual and substantial. China has shown to the world with its initiative in disarmament, its non-engagement in arms race and its sincerity in building a peaceful world.

Day27 音乐传播技术的发展【交流】

人类自创造音乐的那一刻起，即开始了音乐的传播。在一个极为漫长的历史阶段中，人类只能通过音乐表演和口授来传播音乐。音乐保存极为有限，传播距离和传播方向也极为有限。

Music transmission began the moment mankind created music. For a very long period of historical development, humans could only transmit music by means of musical performance and oral instruction. There was a sever limitation to the extent of music preservation, as well as to the distance and directions of music transmission .

当人类发明了乐谱后，音乐便开始脱离表演，演变成“文字”得以记录和传播。然而，人类音乐传播的真正革命性里程碑的建立者无疑是科学家们。他们创造了令人叹为观止的音乐传播手段，从最早的机械“留声机”到今天五花八门的“电子媒体”，音乐的传播变得如此便捷，如此高保真。

When mankind invented musical scores, music started to break away from the boundaries of being merely a performing art, and develop into a system of “written symbols” that can be recorded and spread. Undoubtedly, however, it was the scientists who should be crowned as the founders of the real revolutionary milestone of human musical communication. Scientists invented marvelous means of music transmission, from the earliest mechanical “record turntable”to today’s many kind of “electronic media”. Music transmission has become something that is amazingly convenient, fast, and “hi-fi supported”!

在20世纪诸多的音乐传播手段中，无线电广播的发明和发展对音乐的传播起了极为重要的作用。然而，高科技的高速发展也使我国广播音乐工作者在新世纪中面临严峻的挑战。随着CD唱片的日益普及，随着立体声及数字式音乐电视迈开咄咄逼人脚步，随着……尤其是随着“仿佛无所不能的计算机网络”势力的高速扩张，新世纪音乐广播和音乐广播人还能有所作为吗？

Among the numerous means of music transmission of the 20th century, the creation and development of radio broadcasting played an extremely important role in the industry of music transmission. Nevertheless, the rapid development of high technology has brought serious challenges to China’s radio music workers in the new century. With the ever-increasing popularization of CDs, with the aggressive march of the stereophonic and digital musical TV, with…and especially with the rapid expansion of the “almighty computer network” force, what else can be done on the part of the music broadcasting industry and music broadcasters of the new century.

词组：

• 音乐传播 music transmission/ circulation / communication (换词)

• 以……方式 by means of ……

• 音乐表演和口授musical performance and oral instruction

• 乐谱：music scores

• 脱离……（eg. 表演）：break away from the boundaries of …(a performing art)

• 演变成： develop into （和上文break away相互对仗）

• “文字” “written symbols”（对“文字”含义的理解）

• 革命性里程碑：revolutionary milestone

• 创造了令人叹为观止的音乐传播手段：invented (created) marvelous means of music transmission （叹为观止其他表达：acclaim sth as the acme of perfection, acclaim sth to be the best）

• 机械“留声机”：mechanical “record turntable”

• 诸多，五花八门：numerous, many kinds of…… (其他：multifarious, of a wide/rich variety, of all sorts)

• 起了极为重要的作用：played an extremely important role in……(其中重要的可换为以下几个词vital , major, essential)

• 无线电广播 radio broadcasting

• 面临严峻的挑战：has brought serious challenges……(be confronted with或be faced with)

• 随着……的日益普及/迈开咄咄逼人的脚步/ 势力的高速扩张with the ever-increasing popularization of… ; the aggressive march of … ; the rapid expansion of …

• 仿佛无所不能的计算机网络：almighty computer network

句式：

• 人类自创造音乐的那一刻起，即开始了音乐的传播。 Music transmission began the moment mankind created music.

• 音乐保存极为有限，传播距离和传播方向也极为有限。 There was a sever limitation to the extent of music preservation, as well as to the distance and directions of music transmission. （两个“极为有限”和在一起翻译，“There was a severe limitation to A and B”。音乐保存“有限”，是指程度上的“有限”，所以增词“the extent of”。

• 当人类发明了乐谱后，音乐便开始脱离表演，演变成“文字”得以记录和传播。 When mankind invented musical scores, music started to break away from the boundaries of being merely a performing art, and develop into a system of “written symbols” that can be recorded and spread. （文字的对仗美，在英语中也有体现）

• 然而，人类音乐传播的真正革命性里程碑的建立者无疑是科学家们。 Undoubtedly, however, it was the scientists who should be crowned as the founders of the real revolutionary milestone of human musical communication. （It is… , that… 强调句型，突出句子的重心——科学家们。be crowned as the founders表赞美，一次突出科学家们的重要作用。）

• 音乐的传播变得如此便捷，如此高保真。Music transmission has become something that is amazingly convenient, fast, and “hi-fi supported”! （个人觉得啰嗦，convenient即可表便捷）

• 高科技的高速发展也使我国广播音乐工作者在新世纪中面临严峻的挑战。 The rapid development of high technology has brought serious challenges to China’s radio music workers in the new century. （句式转换，二阶思维。sth使sb面临挑战 = sth has brought serious challenges to sb.）

• 新世纪音乐广播和音乐广播人还能有所作为吗？ What else can be done on the part of / by the music broadcasting industry and music broadcasters of the new century?

Day28 统一大业【政治】

台湾是中国神圣领土不可分割的一部分。我将一如既往地坚持“和平统一，一国两制”的基本方针，坚持贯彻江泽民主席关于发展两岸关系、推进祖国和平统一进程的八项主张，大力发展两岸经济、科技、文化等领域的交流与合作，增加人员往来，与台湾同胞共同努力，坚决反对制造“台湾独立”、“两个中国”、“一中一台”等分裂活动。

Taiwan is an inalienable part of the sacred territory of China. We will as always adhere to the basic principles of “peaceful reunification” and “one country, two systems” and to the eight-point proposal put forward by President Jiang Zemin on developing cross-straits relations and promoting the peaceful reunification of the motherland. We will spare no efforts in expanding exchanges and cooperation between the two sides of the Taiwan Straits in economic, scientific, technological and cultural areas and promote mutual visits of people. We will make joint efforts with our compatriots in Taiwan to firmly oppose any splitist activities aimed at achieving the “independence of Taiwan” or creating “two Chinas” or “one China, one Taiwan”.

我们希望台湾当局以民族大义和台湾人民的根本利益为重，采取行动，早日实现两岸直接通邮、通航、通商，并尽早回应我们发出的在一个中国的原则下两岸进行政治谈判的郑重呼吁。祖国统一是不可阻挡的历史潮流，台湾问题是一定能够解决的。台湾的前途系于祖国统一，分裂是没有出路的。我们相信，在海峡两岸全体中国人民和海外同胞的努力下，祖国完全统一，中华民族全面振兴的共同愿望一定能够实现。

We hope that the Taiwan authorities take into consideration the overall interests of the Chinese nation and the fundamental interests of the people in Taiwan, take concrete steps for the early establishment of direct links of postal, air and shipping services and trade between the two sides and that they respond as early as possible to our solemn appeal that the two sides conduct political negotiations under the principle of one China. The reunification of the motherland is an irreversible historical trend. The Taiwan question will surely be resolved. Taiwan’s future hinges on the reunification of the motherland, and to split the country is no way out. We are convinced that with the concerted efforts for all Chinese people on both sides of the Taiwan Straits and our overseas compatriots, the common aspiration for the complete reunification of the motherland and the all-round rejuvenation of the Chinese nation will certainly be realized.
