25年来,中国坚定不移地推进改革开放,社会主义市场经济体制初步建立,开放型经济已经形成,社会生产力和综合国力不断增强,各项社会事业全面发展,人民生活总体上实现了由温饱到小康的历史性跨越。从1978年至2003年的25年间,中国经济年均增长9.4%。25年前,中国年国内生产总值为1473亿美元,去年已达到14000多亿美元。25年前,中国年进出口贸易总额为206亿美元,去年已达到8512亿美元。25年前,中国外汇储备为1.67亿美元,去年已达到4033亿美元。目前,中国经济总量居世界第六,进出口贸易总额居世界第四。中国之所以能够发生这样巨大的变化,最关键的原因是我们始终坚持走中国特色社会主义道路,始终坚持改革开放,激发了全体人民的积极性、主动性、创造性。
中国虽然取得了很大的发展成就,但中国人口多,底子薄,生产力不发达,发展很不平衡,生态环境、自然资源与经济社会发展的矛盾比较突出。虽然中国人均国内生产总值已经突破1000美元,但仍排在世界一百位以后。中国要实现现代化,使全体人民都过上富裕生活,还需要进行长期不懈的艰苦奋斗。
我们已经明确了本世纪头20年的奋斗目标,这就是全面建设惠及十几亿人口的更高水平的小康社会,到2020年实现国内生产总值比2000年翻两番,达到4万亿美元,人均国内生产总值达到3000美元,使经济更加发展、民主更加健全、科教更加进步、文化更加繁荣、社会更加和谐、人民生活更加殷实。

能源是人类社会赖以生存和发展的重要物质基础。纵观人类社会发展的历史,人类文明的每一次重大进步都伴随着能源的改进和更替。能源的开发利用极大地推进了世界经济和人类社会的发展。过去100多年里,发达国家先后完成了工业化,消耗了地球上大量的自然资源,特别是能源资源。当前,一些发展中国家正在步入工业化阶段,能源消费增加是经济社会发展的客观必然。中国是当今世界上最大的发展中国家,发展经济,摆脱贫困,是中国政府和中国人民在相当长一段时期内的主要任务。20世纪70年代末以来,中国作为世界上发展最快的发展中国家,经济社会发展取得了举世瞩目的辉煌成就,成功地开辟了中国特色社会主义道路,为世界的发展和繁荣作出了重大贡献。中国是目前世界上第二位能源生产国和消费国。能源供应持续增长,为经济社会发展提供了重要的支撑。能源消费的快速增长,为世界能源市场创造了广阔的发展空间。中国已经成为世界能源市场不可或缺的重要组成部分,对维护全球能源安全,正在发挥着越来越重要的积极作用。

在上海的现代化轻轨列车上,上班族有的在打手机,有的在用笔记本电脑,有的在观赏车内顺平显示器上播放的电影。全国各地,半导体工厂在昔日的农田拔地而起,而在日益扩展的城市中,众多大学校园和新公司林立的高科技园区正再现美国硅谷的模式。
中国拥有大量的技术人才。依靠这些人才,中国的高科技设计和开发能力正日益提高。
中国政府正致力于扶持信息技术产业,使之成为一大经济支柱,重点发展半导体和软件工业,并对新公司采取提供价廉土地和税收优惠等激励措施。
对外国投资者来说,中国的美丽在于其规模庞大、扩展迅速的国内市场。另一个优势则是低工资,中国工程师的薪水仅是西方同行的十分之一。

国际金融危机给中国带来了前所未有的困难和挑战。主要表现在:经济增长压力明显加大,进出口继续下滑,工业生产明显放缓,部分企业生产经营困难,就业难度加大。这场国际金融危机与中国发展方式转变、经济结构调整的关键时期不期而遇,新的挑战与既有矛盾相互交织,加大了我们解决问题的难度。
为应对国际金融危机冲击、保持经济平稳较快发展,中国及时调整宏观经济政策,果断实施积极的财政政策和适度宽松的货币政策,形成了进一步扩大内需、促进经济增长的一揽子计划。
中国政府大规模增加政府支出,实施总额4万亿元人民币的两年投资计划,实行结构性减税政策,多次降息和增加银行体系流动性,大范围实施产业调整振兴规划,大力推进科技创新和技术改造,大力加强节能减排和生态环境保护,继续调整国民收入分配格局,大力拓展国内市场特别是农村市场,大幅度提高社会保障水平。
这些措施已取得初步成效。国内消费需求比较旺盛,投资需求稳步提高,社会大局保持稳定。

汉译英:2010年9月7日国家副主席习近平在联合国贸发会的发言
坚持对外开放基本国策,坚定不移地发展开放型经济、奉行互利共赢的开放战略,是改革开放30多年来中国经济持续快速发展的一条成功经验。招商引资、择优选资,促进“引资”与“引智”相结合,是中国对外开放的重要内容。截至2010年7月,中国累计设立外商投资企业69.8万家,实际使用外资1.05万亿美元。目前中国22%的税收、28%的工业增加值、55%的进出口、50%的技术引进、约4500万
人的就业,都来自外商投资企业的贡献。对外开放、吸引外资是互利共赢的。对中国来说,通过持续吸引外资为国家现代化建设提供了必要的资金、先进的技术和宝贵的管理经验以及众多国际化人才。对外商投资企业来说,则赢得了可观的投资回报,不少在华外商投资企业成为其母公司全球业务的增长亮点和利润中心。联合国贸发会议最新调查显示,目前中国依然是全球最具吸引力的投资东道国。
近年来,中国全面把握对外开放阶段性特点,按照完善内外联动、互利共赢、安全高效的开放型经济体系的要求,总结实践中的成功经验,把“引进来”和“走出去”更好地结合起来,创新对外投资和合作方式,支持企业在研发、生产、销售等方面开展国际化经营。截至2009年底,中国共在境外设立企业1.3万家,境外企业资产总额超过1万亿美元,对外投资存量已达2457亿美元,投资区域遍布全球177个

Section2Chinese-EnglishTranslation(50points)TranslatethefollowingpassageintoEnglish.即使碰着丰收年成,对中国来说,要用世界百分之七的耕地养活全球五分之一的进口仍是一项艰难的使命。中国当时势临良多挑战,最严重的挑战之一就是耕地流失踪。曩昔几年中,平均每年有66.7万公顷耕地被城市扩建、工业成长以及公路培植工程占用,还有1万平方公里的耕地被沙漠吞噬。中国北方地域地下水位下降,农人不得不改种耐旱、地产作物,甚至撂荒。同时,农业基本行动措施损耗严重,三分之二的浇灌行动措施需要整修。因为农人为增添收入而改种经济作物,农业出产体例正在改变。曩昔十几年,全国水不美观和蔬菜种植面积平均每年增添130万公顷。是以,水稻、玉米及小麦产量急剧下降。中国已由粮食净出口国变为粮食净进口国。中国政府把农业更始视为甲等大事,投入大量资金用于提高小麦和稻米的收购价以及改良农田浇灌基本行动措施。近年来,农产物的价钱稳步上升,中国政府采纳此项法子音提高农人种粮的积极性。
