骆家辉州长就职演讲(最终版)第一篇:骆家辉州长就职演讲(最终版)马歇尔大使:下午好。
下午好,欢迎光临。
我作为礼宾司司长很高兴欢迎诸位来到国务院条约厅参加下一任美国驻中华人民共和国大使骆家辉的宣誓就职仪式。
(掌声)今天下午由尊敬的国务卿希拉里·克林顿主持仪式,我们感到非常荣幸。
我们今天也非常高兴地与新大使的家人–他的夫人蒙娜、可爱的女儿埃米莉和马德琳及儿子迪伦一起出席仪式。
(掌声)请大家与我一起向诸位贵宾表示欢迎。
(掌声)今天下午我们的仪式先请国务卿致词,然后主持我们新大使的宣誓就职仪式,接着是签署委任状,最后请骆家辉大使发表讲话。
it is now my great pleasure and honor to introduce the secretary of state.现在,我很高兴,也很荣幸地请国务卿发表讲话。
国务卿克林顿:我非常高兴,这一天终于来到了。
(笑声)我尤其要感谢加里、蒙娜和他们的子女及你们大家,感谢你们的耐心和执着,使我们大家都能在这里出席骆家辉任我国驻中华人民共和国大使的宣誓就职仪式。
本届政府即将派遣加里和他幸福美满的一家前往中国,今天是令人兴奋和自豪的一天。
我特别欢迎代办和外交界其他人士以及如此众多来自本届政府的朋友。
本无庸赘言,但我还是要说,我国与中国的关系是一种极为重要的关系,我们认为双方关系具有非凡的实质意义,对我们在21世纪共同享有什么样的未来有十分重大的意义。
我们两国都是纷繁多样、国土广袤的国家,但有着不同的历史和不同的政治制度。
然而,我们知道增进相互了解,共同努力和一起解决问题的重要性,而这也是我们全力以赴要做的事。
我相信骆家辉是落实奥巴马总统和胡锦涛主席关于发展积极、合作和全面关系的承诺的恰当人选。
加里前往北京赴任之际,战略与经济对话有大量后续工作需要我们做,还面对着很多棘手的问题和挑战。
但我知道,加里已为应对这些难题做好了充分的准备。
and there’s hardly anyone we could be sending who has a reputation for working as hard as gary locke.i’ve known gary a lon g time, andsome of you have known him even longer, and you know that he has the reputation of being an extraordinarily hard worker.when he was a state representative, a seattle newspaper once called him, and i quote, “the man who mistook his life for the legislature.”(laughter.)but that was before mona.(laughter.)because i knew gary before mona.(laughter.)and mona, we’re really glad that you’re also going to beijing.(laughter.)骆家辉以勤奋工作著称,很难有人能像他那样可担此重任。

Thank you all very much for coming here on a hot Sunday afternoon in Beijing –don’t worry, we have some refreshments waiting for you.欢迎来到美国大使官邸。
非常谢谢你们大家,在北京一个炎热的周日下午来到这里——不用担心,我们已经为你们准备了一些茶点。
Let me begin by saying how deeply honored I am to have this opportunity to serve the President and the people of the United States of America. My wife Mona and our children Emily, Dylan, and Madeline are all very excited to move here to Beijing to build new friendships between the people of the United States and China and to continue to expand our two countries’ growing cooperation on key bilateral and international issues.首先,我深感荣幸能有这个机会为美利坚合众国的总统和人民服务。
骆家辉家乡演讲Dajia hao! Hi, I'm Gary Locke, US ambassador to China. And I'm really proud to be able to communicate with our netizen friends throughout southern China.大家好!嗨,我是骆家辉,美国驻华大使,我真的很自豪,能与我们在中国南方各地的网民朋友们交流。
I'll let you know that shortly I'll be traveling to Guangzhou, and during that visit I'll also have the opportunity to visit our ancestral village or "Laojia". It's our first time visiting the family village, meeting with relatives since becoming ambassador and arriving here in China. I'm specially pleased to be traveling to Guangzhou and Guangdong province because it is the land of my ancestors. It's where my father and my grandfather were born.我想让你们知道我很快就要去广州,而且在这次访问中,我们还有机会访问我们的老家。
自从我成为大使来到中国,这是我们第一次访问家族村,与亲戚们见面。
我特别高兴将前往广东省的广州市,因为它是我们祖先的土地,是我父亲和祖父的出生地。
And indeed southern China is really the source of the early immigrants from China to the United States. It was the early Chinese from that part of China that worked on the transcontinental railroads in the United States, worked in the gold mines, the lumber camps, the coalmines and then became merchants throughout many of the cities. Chinese Americans have really contributed incredibly to the success and prosperity of America. And Chinese Americans now hold great positions throughout all aspects of US society as academicians, as business leaders, as political leaders and as scientists and as artists.事实上,中国南部确实是中国到美国早期移民的发源地,正是来自这个地区的中国人,曾在美国横贯大陆的铁路、金矿、木材营地和煤矿上工作,并且后来成为许多城市中的商人,华裔美国人真正为美国的成功和繁荣作出了令人难以置信的贡献。
骆家辉北外演讲全文(中英)4来源:杜建春的日志骆家辉北外演讲全文(中英)4We have worked hard over the last few years to lay this foundation:过去几年来,我们在努力打好这个基础:• Through launching the Strategic and Economic Dialogue;•通过开展战略与经济对话;• Through a rapid pace of meetings between our most senior leaders;•通过我们最高层领导人之间频繁的会面;• Through expanding our cooperation between our states, provinces, and cities; •通过扩展我们的国家、省市之间的合作;• And, through increasing the number of exchanges between the Chinese and American peoples.•以及,通过增加中美人民之间的交流。
All of these mechanisms will help us increase mutual understanding and trust, which will be crucial to advancing our relationship in the 21st century.所有这些机制将帮助我们增进相互了解和信任,它们在推进我们在21世纪的关系上将是至关重要的。
This reality was confirmed earlier this year when President Obama and President Hu pledged to expand bilateral cooperation on a range of issues and when Vice President Biden spoke about this cooperation during his recent trip to China.今年早些时候奥巴马总统和胡主席共同承诺的在一系列问题上扩大双边合作以及副总统拜登在他最近的中国之行中谈及的这种合作,便是上述现实的证明。

外研社杯万里英文演讲稿Ladies and gentlemen, good morning!It is my great honor to stand here and deliver a speech on behalf of the students of our school. Today, I would like to share with you my thoughts on the topic of "The Power of Dreams".We all have dreams. Some of us dream of becoming successful entrepreneurs, while others dream of making a positive impact on the world. No matter what our dreams may be, they all have one thing in common the power to drive us forward, to inspire us to work hard and to persevere in the face of challenges.I believe that the power of dreams lies in their ability to give us hope and direction. When we have a dream, we have a goal to strive for. We have something to look forward to, something that gives our lives meaning and purpose. Our dreams motivate us to push ourselves beyond our limits, to overcome obstacles and to never give up, no matter how difficult the journey may be.In addition, dreams have the power to bring people together. When we share our dreams with others, we create a sense of community and belonging. We inspire and support each other, and we work together to make our dreams a reality. This sense of unity and collaboration is essential for achieving our goals and creating positive change in the world.Moreover, dreams have the power to drive innovation and progress. Throughout history, the greatest achievements of mankind have been the result of someone's dream. Whether it's the invention of the light bulb, the exploration of outer space, or the fight for equality and justice, all of these accomplishments started as a dream in someone's mind. Our dreams have the power to shape the future and to make the world a better place for generations to come.In conclusion, the power of dreams is undeniable. They have the ability to inspire, to unite, and to drive progress. So let us never stop dreaming, and let us never underestimate the impact that our dreams can have on our lives and the world around us.Thank you.。
Ladies and Gentlemen,Good morning/afternoon/evening. It is my great honor to stand before you today and share my thoughts on a topic that is both deeply personal and universally relevant: the power of language in a globalized world and the importance of embracing diversity. As a student of Beijing Foreign Studies University, I have been exposed to a multitude of languages and cultures, and I believe that it is through these languages that we can truly understand and appreciate the diversity that exists in our world.First and foremost, let us acknowledge the role that language plays in shaping our identity and worldview. Language is not just a means of communication; it is a reflection of our history, culture, and values. Each language carries with it a unique set of traditions, proverbs, and idioms that have been passed down through generations. By learning and embracing diverse languages, we open ourselves up to new perspectives and ideas that can enrich our own lives.Consider the English language, which is the lingua franca of the modern world. It has become the primary medium of international communication, business, and diplomacy. By mastering English, we gain access to a vast array of information, literature, and global opportunities. However, it is important to remember that English is just one of the many languages spoken on this planet. There are over 7,000 languages spoken today, each with its own unique charm and richness.Embracing diversity in language means recognizing the value of all languages, not just those that are widely spoken or recognized by the global community. It means celebrating the small, lesser-known languages that are spoken by indigenous communities, preserving their cultural heritage, and ensuring that their voices are not lost in the cacophony of dominant languages. By doing so, we contribute to the preservation of linguistic diversity, which is crucial for maintaining culturaldiversity and promoting global understanding.One of the most compelling reasons to embrace language diversity is the power it holds in fostering empathy and breaking down barriers. Language is a tool that can bridge gaps between cultures and foster mutualrespect. When we learn a new language, we gain a deeper understanding of the people who speak it. We learn about their customs, their struggles, and their triumphs. This understanding can lead to empathy, which is essential for building peaceful and inclusive societies.Moreover, language diversity is a testament to the ingenuity and adaptability of human beings. Throughout history, languages have evolved and adapted to changing circumstances, reflecting the dynamic nature of human societies. The development of pidgins and creoles, for example, demonstrates how people can create new languages to meet the needs of their communities. This linguistic creativity is a source of inspiration and a reminder of the resilience of the human spirit.In a globalized world, where borders are becoming increasingly blurred and cultures are intermingling like never before, the importance of language diversity cannot be overstated. It is through language that we can communicate our ideas, share our stories, and collaborate on a global scale. Here are a few ways in which language diversity canbenefit us:1. Cultural Exchange: Learning a new language allows us to immerse ourselves in different cultures, broadening our horizons and fostering a sense of global citizenship.2. Economic Opportunities: Language skills are highly sought after in the global job market. Being multilingual can open doors to new career opportunities and enhance one's employability.3. Education: Multilingual education can help students develop critical thinking skills, creativity, and a greater appreciation for different ways of thinking.4. Conflict Resolution: Understanding the languages of others can facilitate communication and negotiation, thereby reducing thelikelihood of misunderstandings and conflicts.5. Preservation of Heritage: By learning and using lesser-known languages, we can contribute to the preservation of endangered languages and the cultural heritage they represent.As students of Beijing Foreign Studies University, we are uniquely positioned to champion the cause of language diversity. We have the privilege of studying a wide range of languages and cultures, and we have the responsibility to use our knowledge and skills to promote understanding and tolerance in our increasingly interconnected world.In conclusion, the power of language in a globalized world is immense. It is through language that we can bridge the gaps between cultures, foster empathy, and create a more inclusive and harmonious society. Let us embrace language diversity, celebrate the beauty of different languages, and use our linguistic skills to build a better future for all.Thank you for your attention. I welcome any questions or comments you may have.[End of speech]。
万里演讲稿英语Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen,Good afternoon!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.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.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.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.Within our cultural programs, education and communication will receivethe highest priority. We seek to create an intellectual and sporting legacy by broadening the understanding of the Olympic Ideals throughout the country.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.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.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 summit - Mount 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 anyprevious 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 descriptions 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。

It is truly an honor to be here, and I congratulate you on celebrating your 70th anniversary.感谢你们今天邀请我来这里。
非常荣幸来到这里,并祝贺你们70周年校庆。
The start of a school year marks a new beginning for students. And so it’s fitting that I’m here to talk about a ne w beginning of my own.新学年的开始,对学生们来说标志着一个新起点,所以也正适合我在这儿谈谈我自己的新起点。
I want to say how grateful I am for the warm welcome that my family and I have received from the Chinese people.我要说,我非常感谢中国人民对我家人和我的热情欢迎。
As you know, my ancestral home is in Taishan in Guangdongprovince. Since our arrival, the people of China have made my entire family feel, simply put: at home — And we are grateful.正如你们所知,我的祖籍在广东省台山。
从自我们抵达以后,中国人民就让我们全家人感觉,简单地说,像在家里一样——我们很感谢。
I know that there are very high expectations for my tenure as ambassador. 我知道人们对我作为大使的任期有着非常高的期望。
I understand why: I am the first Chinese-American to hold this post. And I do have a proven record:我知道为什么。
我是第一个担任此职的华裔美国人。
并且,我确实有着过硬的经历:As a governor;作为一名州长;As Commerce Secretary; and作为商务部长;还有As a man who has mastered the art of buying his own coffee AND carrying his own luggage!作为一个掌握了自己买咖啡和自己背包这门艺术的男人。
I will do the best I can as U.S. Ambassador.作为美国大使,我会尽自己最大努力。
And although there is much work ahead to strengthen and expandU.S.-China cooperation — and to mana ge our differences when we don’t see eye-to-eye — I begin my ambassadorship with confidence that the overall state of our relationship is strong.尽管还要做很多工作来加强和扩大美中合作,并且要在我们意见不一时处理好我们的分歧,但在上任之际,我坚信我们的整体关系是强劲有力的。
One thing I do know is that the people in this room will have a lot of influence in the future of the U.S.-China relationship.我所确知的一点是,这里在座的人将来会对美中关系有很大的影响力。
For 70 years, Beijing Foreign Studies University has been a training ground for hundreds of China’s top leaders, including my friend and YOUR ambassador to the U.S., Zhang Yesui.70年来,北京外国语大学一直是数以百计的中国高层领导人的培训基地,包括我的朋友及你们的驻美大使张业遂。
Whatever your careers, in the years ahead, you will be the international face of China, and your choices will determine the steps China takes in confronting its own —and the world’s — challenges.在未来岁月中,无论你们从事什么职业,你们将是中国的国际形象,你们的选择将决定中国在面对自己及世界的挑战时采取什么样的步骤。
But today, I’d like to discuss the steps I believe we must all take in strengthening the US- China relationship.不过,今天我想讨论我相信在加强美中关系中我们所有人都必须采取的步骤。
To understand where the U.S.-China relationship is going, it’s helpful to remember just how far it has come already.要了解中美关系的走向,回顾一下它已经走过了多远的历程是有益的。
When I first attended college in 1968, a gathering like this would not have been possible — because America did not even have an ambassador in Beijing.当我在1968年刚上大学时,这样的聚会是不可能的——因为美国甚至还没有驻北京的大使。
Contrast that with today, when it could be argued that the U.S.-China bond is one of the most important bilateral relationships in the world.与之相比,可以说,今天的美中纽带是世界上最重要的双边关系之一。
For 40 years, our two countries have been increasing our cooperation and interconnectedness for a very simple reason:40年来,我们两国一直在增强我们的合作和相互联系,原因很简单:It is in our mutual interest.这是我们的共同利益。
Millions of jobs are sustained in China and the United States by the trade we do with one another. American consumers benefit from the goods made in China and daily the Chinese people rely on high quality U.S. products and services. And, as our companies make investments in each other’s countries, we are creating jobs for our peoples.我们彼此的贸易支撑着中国和美国数百万份工作。
美国消费者受益于中国制造的商品,而中国人民每天都依赖于美国高质量的产品和服务。
而且,当我们在对方国家投资的时候,我们为我们的人民创造工作机会。
Every year, the comprehensive Strategic and Economic Dialogue brings together policymakers from across both governments to discuss topics ranging from breaking down trade barriers to economic cooperation to collaborating on pressing regional and global issues.每年,全面的“战略与经济对话”将两国政府各部门的决策者汇聚到一起,商讨从打破贸易壁垒、到经济合作、到就紧迫的区域和全球事务展开协作等一系列问题。
To meet the challenge of global climate change, the U.S. and China can build on a legacy of over 30 years of cooperation on Science and Technology issues.为了应对全球气候变化的挑战,美国和中国可以继续发展我们在科技领域30多年的合作传统。
Similarly, the United States and China share an interest in maintaining peace and prosperity around the world.同样,美国和中国在维护世界各地和平与繁荣上有着共同利益。
Our defense ties extend back to World War II, when our soldiers fought and sacrificed together.我们的防务关系可以追溯到第二次世界大战,我们的军人那时曾一起作战牺牲。
