李克強總理演講的“譯”術

總理在第十屆亞歐首腦會議上談亞歐合作

*克強語錄

中國古代思想家荀子說，“積土成山，風雨興焉”。意大利航海家哥倫布曾經說過，“只要我們能把希望的大陸牢牢裝在心中，風浪就一定能被我們戰勝”。

Just as the ancient Chinese thinker Xun Zi (Hsun Tsu) remarked, “When earth piles up into mountains, wind and rain will originate thereof.” The Italian navigator Christopher Columbus also observed, “As long as we hold the land of hope close to our heart, we can surely brave the storm.”

亞歐大陸也是世界上發展機遇最多、潛力最大的大陸。亞歐會議創立18年來，成員國間政治對話不斷加深，務實合作蓬勃發展，社會文化交流日趨廣泛，利益交匯點不斷擴大，客觀上已形成休戚與共的責任和命運共同體。本次會議的主題是“構建負責任伙伴關系，促進可持續增長與安全”，具有很強的現實意義。中方愿與亞歐各國一道，培育和凝聚亞歐共同體意識，倡導和促進亞歐團結協作，開放兼容，同舟共濟，積極構建面向和平與發展的亞歐新型全面伙伴關系。在此，我提出以下幾點建議：

——共同維護亞歐和平安全與穩定發展。

——共同推進亞歐互聯互通和貿易投資自由化。

——共同促進亞歐人文交流和社會發展。

[記熱詞]

負責任伙伴關系 responsible partnership

可持續增長與安全 sustainable growth and security

亞歐新型全面伙伴關系 new type of comprehensive partnership between Asia and Europe

亞歐互聯互通和貿易投資自由化 connectivity and trade and investment liberalization in Asia and Europe

亞歐人文交流和社會發展 Asia-Europe cultural exchange and social development

Eurasia is a land that boasts the greatest development opportunities and potential in the world. Since its inception 18 years ago, ASEM has witnessed deepening political dialogue, robust practical cooperation and extensive social and cultural exchanges. With expanding converging interests, ASEM members have grown into a community of shared responsibilities and destinies. The theme of this meeting, Responsible Partnership for Sustainable Growth and Security, is highly relevant. China stands ready to work with other ASEM partners in an open, inclusive and united spirit to foster the awareness of community, advocate unity and coordination, and actively build a new type of comprehensive partnership for peace and development between Asia and Europe. Along this line, I wish to make the following proposals:

— We need to jointly uphold peace, security, stability and development in Asia and Europe.

— We need to jointly promote connectivity and trade and investment liberalization in Asia and Europe.

— We need to jointly promote Asia-Europe cultural exchange and social development.

小貼士：

在國外演講時，如果能用上一兩句當地的語言能夠拉近與聽眾的距離。李克強總理在莫斯科演講的開頭和結尾時就用俄語跟大家問好并表達謝意。
