美国国务卿克林顿在美中生态伙伴关系协定签署仪式上的讲话

2011年5月10日 美国国务院条约厅

Well, I am delighted to welcome you to the Treaty Room this morning for such a special occasion.I especially want to thank our Chinese guests who have flown here to be part of the third Strategic and Economic Dialogue.Minister XieZhenhua and Director General Ma Xin as well as all the other Chinese colleagues are most welcome.And of course, I want to welcome all of our American eco-partners who have also come from across our country to sign these landmark agreements.I want to thank Assistant Secretary Kerri-Ann Jones and Special Envoy for Climate Change Todd Stern and our Special Representative for Governmental Interactions Rita Jo Lewis.我非常高兴地欢迎你们今天上午来到条约厅出席这样一个具有特殊意义的仪式。我特别要感谢远道而来参加第三轮战略与经济对话的中国客人，非常欢迎解振华主任、马欣司长和其他中方同事们。当然，我也要欢迎从美国各地来到这里签署这些具有里程碑意义的协定的所有美国生态伙伴们，我还要感谢助理国务卿凯里·安·琼斯、美国气候变化特使托德·斯特恩和我们的政府间互动特别代表丽塔·乔·刘易斯。

We are very committed to this relationship, and we know it needs to expand beyond the government-to-government conversations.We need to harness the unique skills of both of our cities, our states, our universities, our private companies, our civil societies to find solutions to common problems.That is especially true when it comes to clean energy, energy security, environmental stability, and climate change.Both of our countries have companies that are developing new and exciting technologies, universities that are doing groundbreaking research, and local governments that have unique perspectives on the community environmental issues they face which can have a global impact.我们坚定不移地发展这一关系，我们也知道，这一关系需要扩大并超越政府间对话的范畴，我们必须利用我们两国各州/省、城市、大学、私营企业和公民社会组织的独特技能，针对我们共同面临的问题找出解决办法。当我们在处理清洁能源、能源安全、环境稳定和气候变化等问题时尤其是这样。我们两国都有公司企业在努力开发激动人心的新技术，都有大学正在进行开创性的研究，都有对于它们面临的社区环境问题具有独特视角的地方政府，而这些问题可能具有全球性影响。

This EcoPartnership program was founded to bring these groups together to share best practices, foster innovation, and encourage sustainable development.Already, the original group of seven eco-partners has generated results, and today, we are admitting six new groups of exciting and promising partners to the list.All of these collaborations have the potential to help us solve some of our most profound environmental challenges and, at the same time, create new jobs in both of our countries.I am confident that these new collaborations will yield innovative solutions, and I look forward to learning more about the results of your work.When it comes to the green economy, local partnerships can have a global impact.建立该生态伙伴关系项目的目的就是要把上述各方汇聚到一起，分享最佳做法、促进创新、鼓励可持续发展。该项目初创时的7个生态合作伙伴现在已经获得了许多成果，今天，我们要吸收6个令人鼓舞、很有发展前途的新团体加入该项目，所有这些协作项目都有望帮助我们解决我们目前面临的一些影响最为深远的环境问题，同时在我们两国创造就业机会。我相信，这些新的协作将产生创新的解决办法，我期待着获知更多有关你们的工作成果的信息。在绿色经济这一领域，地方伙伴关系可能发挥全球性影响。

Let me now introduce Assistant Secretary Kerri-Ann Jones, and again, thank you all for being part of this exciting venture.现在请助理国务卿凯里·安·琼斯讲话，我再一次感谢各位参与这一振奋人心的事业。

美国国务卿克林顿在庆祝美中人文交流活动上的讲话

美国国务卿克林顿5月25日在北京国家大剧院出席庆祝美中人文交流的活动并发表讲话。以下是讲话全文。

Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton at U.S.-China People-to-People Engagement Ceremony National Performing Arts Center

Beijing, China May 25, 2010 国务卿克林顿在庆祝美中人文交流活动上的讲话

中国北京国家大剧院 2010年5月25日

SECRETARY CLINTON: I am delighted to join State Councilor Liu and Vice Minister Hao Ping at this magnificent national center for the performing arts.It is a personal pleasure for me to be here with all of you for the launching of this very important U.S.-China high-level consultation on people-to-people exchange.国务卿克林顿：我很高兴地与国务委员刘延东和副部长郝平相聚在国家大剧院这一辉煌的中心。能与各位出席启动这个极其重要的美中人文交流高层磋商机制的活动，我感到由衷的高兴。

I am pleased to announce it will be accompanied today by a delegation of distinguished Americans who are committed to expanding citizens’ engagement between our countries.And our effort will be coordinated by Under Secretary Judith McHale in the months ahead with a broad range of officials throughout our government who are here in Beijing for the second round of the U.S.-China strategic and economic dialogue.This is the premier convening mechanism for building cooperation between our two governments.我荣幸地宣布，出席今天活动的还有一个杰出的美国代表团，他们致力于壮大我们两国之间的公民交流。我们的努力在今后数月内将由副国务卿朱迪思·麦克黑尔（Judith McHale）负责与我国政府各机构的官员进行广泛协调，他们正在北京参加第二轮美中战略与经济对话。这是我们两国政府发展合作的首要会议召集机制。

This relationship, however, must extend beyond the halls of governments to our homes, businesses, and schools.We need Chinese and Americans of all ages, professions, and(inaudible)to get to know one another, to understand each other better, to connect and collaborate.不过，这一关系必须超越政府机构，走向我们的家庭、公司和学校。我们需要中美两国各年龄层、各行业的公民相互认识，加深了解，进行联系和协作。In his speech on Monday, President Hu Jintao spoke about how important this is to both our countries.What we call people-to-people diplomacy has taken on greater significance, as our world has grown more interdependent, and our challenges more complex.Government alone cannot solve the problems that we face.And as State Councilor Liu said, we have to tap in to the challenge of our people, their creative and innovation, and their ability to forge lasting relationships that build trust and understanding.胡锦涛主席在星期一的讲话中谈到这对我们两国关系的重要意义。随着我们的世界日益互为依存，我们的挑战更趋复杂，我们所称之的民间外交已发挥了更大的作用。仅靠政府是不能解决我们所面临的问题的。正如刘委员所指出的，我们必须积极解决我们人民所面临的挑战，并鼓励他们发挥其发明创造力及其营造有利于建立信任和理解的关系的能力。

It is exciting for me to see so many of you here today from both China and the United States who are committed to this relationship.As I was coming in, I met some of the leading Chinese Olympic athletes whom I have watched over the years and admired.我欣慰地看到今天来自中方和美方的各位代表中有许多人致力于这一关系。就在我入场时，我遇到中国一些优秀的奥运选手，他们是我近年来在电视上见过并感到钦佩的对象。

And we have students from both of our countries represented here, tens of thousands of Chinese and American young people studying in each other’s country each year.We want to see those numbers rise.President Obama has announced a goal of sending 100,000 American students to China in the next 4 years to learn Mandarin and experience the hospitality of the Chinese people.We call it 100,000 Strong, and we are grateful for the support that the Government of China has shown for this project.And I especially want to thank Madam Liu for her leadership in this effort.It was just about a year ago that she and I first met to discuss the importance of people-to-people exchanges.And here we are today, announcing a significant commitment.今天出席活动的还有来自我们两国的学生，如今每年有成千上万的美国和中国年轻人到对方国家求学。我们希望看到有更多的人参与。奥巴马总统已宣布将在今后4年时间内向中国派出10万美国学生在华学习汉语，并体验中国人民的热情好客。我们称之为“十万人”行动计划，我们对中国政府为该项目提供支持表示感谢。我尤其要感谢刘女士为这一努力所发挥的领导作用。大约一年以前，她和我首次会面讨论民间交流的重要意义。而今天，我们要在这里宣布一项重大的承诺。

A few minutes ago Madam Liu and I met with several American exchange students, including: a high school student who is living with a host family here in Beijing, a college student who has performed with the Beijing Music Ensemble, and a doctoral student doing research in renewable energy education.几分钟前，刘女士与我见到了几位美国交换学生，他们包括一名与北京接待家庭共同生活的中学生，一名曾与北京乐团同台演出的大学生，以及一名正在从事可再生能源教育研究的博士生。

A few days ago I visited the Shanghai Expo and met the young American student ambassadors who had already welcomed more than 700,000 visitors to the USA Pavilion.They have all studied Mandarin.And they come from cities and towns across the United States.They will return home having shared the experience of being part of the Expo, and meeting people from all over China and the world.Many more American and Chinese students want and deserve similar opportunities, and I applaud the announcement today that there will be 10,000 Chinese students supported to get their Ph.D.’s in the United States.几天前，我参观了上海世博会。我与已经在美国馆接待了70多万参观者的年轻美国学生大使们见了面。他们都学过汉语，来自全美各城市和乡镇。他们回国的时候，将拥有自己与世博会密不可分的体验，以及接待来自全中国和全世界的参观者的经历。还有更多的美国和中国学生想要获得、也应该获得同样的机会，我为今天发布的消息感到高兴：我们将支持一万名中国学生在美国取得博士学位。China has established dozens of Confucius institutes across the United States that offer Chinese language instruction and cultural programs to help Americans better understand China.We would like to see similar American language and culture centers on the campuses of Chinese universities.I understand that a proposal between an American university and a Chinese partner for an American study institute is now under review.And we hope the Chinese Government will support this proposal and others like it, paving the way for an even more vibrant exchange of language and culture.中国已在美国各地建立了几十所孔子学院（Confucius institutes），这些学院提供中文教育与文化项目以帮助美国人更好地了解中国。我很想看到同样的美国语言和文化中心出现在中国大学的校园内。我听说一项由美国的一所大学与中国伙伴合办一个美国研究所的建议正在接受审批。我希望中国政府会支持这项建议和类似的其他建议，为更加活跃的语言文化交流铺平道路。

The U.S.-China Fulbright program, one of the largest in the world, and represented here by some of the Fulbright scholars, has helped 2,500 Americans and Chinese students and scholars study, teach, and conduct research at each others’ universities.The U.S.-China Friendship volunteers teach English in four provinces in China.And we would like to broaden their support for English language instruction in China, including county-level teacher training, smaller cities and colleges, and additional provinces.美中富布赖特项目（U.S.-China Fulbright program）是世界上最大的交流项目之一，今天在座的有一些富布赖特学者的代表。它已资助2,500名美国与中国的学生和学者在对方的大学内学习、教课和从事研究。美中友谊志愿者（U.S.-China Friendship Volunteers）在中国的四个省份教授英语。我们希望扩大他们对中国英语教学的支援，其中包括县一级的教师培训、更小型城市和大学以及更多省份的英语教学。

These opportunities provide new perspectives on this fast-changing world that we both share.And they remind us of how much we have in common.Despite our differences and the distance between us, we share common aspirations.And I believe the more we talk and learn from each other, the greater our chances of making progress together.这些机会提供了观察我们共处的这个瞬息万变的世界的新视角，提醒我们看到彼此有许许多多相同的地方。尽管我们之间存在差异和距离，但我们都有共同的愿景。我深信我们彼此交谈和相互学习得越多，我们取得进步的机会也就越大。And education is just the beginning.Professional, creative, scientific, and cultural exchanges also hold great potential.Sesame Workshop, a non-profit organization that produces Sesame Street, an educational television program beloved by generations of American children, recently formed a partnership to produce children's educational programming in China.Tulane University in New Orleans has partnered with east China's(inaudible)university in Shanghai, to trade(inaudible)in disaster response and wetland management.And the Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra recently(inaudible)famous 1973 visit to China, playing at both the Shanghai Expo and here, at the Center.教育方面的交流只是开始而已。专业的、创新的、科技与文化的交流也具有巨大的潜力。“芝麻街工作室”（Sesame Workshop）是一个制作受到一代又一代美国儿童喜爱的芝麻街（Sesame Street）教育性电视节目的非营利组织，它最近建立了一种伙伴关系，专门制作中国的儿童教育节目。新奥尔良的杜兰大学（Tulane University）已与在上海的华东[听不清楚]大学结成伙伴关系，在救灾反应和湿地管理方面交换[听不清楚]。费城交响乐团（Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra）继1973年著名的访华演出之后于最近[听不清楚]分别在上海世博会和这座国家大剧院演出。

To bring together women to the public and private sectors I have discussed a proposal with Madame Liu for a U.S.-China women's leaders forum.And the relationship between our two countries will change the 21st century.We want it to be a positive, cooperative, and comprehensive relationship.We want it to be based on our people-to-people outreach and understanding.Our people represent our greatest resource in both of our countries.And encouraging their mutual engagement will better ensure that the United States and China make the most of this exciting time in our shared history.为了让妇女参与政府和民间活动，我与刘女士讨论了一项美中妇女领导人论坛的建议。我们两国的关系将改变21世纪。我们希望它是一种积极、合作、全面的关系。我们希望它基于我们的人文交流与理解的机制。我们的人民代表着我们两国最大的财富。鼓励他们互相交往将进一步确保美国与中国紧紧抓住我们共享的这一激动人心的历史时刻。Thank you very much.(Applause.)谢谢大家。（掌声）

第三篇：美国国务卿克林顿2010年三八国际妇女节讲话

March 8th is International Women’s Day—a day to reflect on the progress the world has made in advancing women’s rights and to recognize what work remains to be done.三月八日是国际妇女节。在这个日子，我们回顾全世界在促进妇女权利方面取得的进展，并确定有待完成的工作。

This year marks an anniversary very close to my heart.Fifteen years ago, along with women and men from around the world I attended the United Nations Fourth World Conference on Women in Beijing.The message from that conference rang loudly and clearly, and still echoes across cultures and continents: Human rights are women’s rights, and women’s rights are human rights.今年的三八国际妇女节是一个是我倍感亲切的周年纪念日。15年前，我与来自全世界的男女代表一起出席了在北京召开的联合国第四届世界妇女大会。那次会议发出了一个明确无误的最强音，至今仍在各种文化中和各大洲发出回响：人权即是妇女的权利，妇女的权利即是人权。

One hundred and eighty-nine countries represented at Beijing adopted a Platform for Action that pledged to increase women’s access to education, healthcare, jobs, and credit, and to protect their right to live free from violence.We have made great progress, but there is a long way to go.Women are still the majority of the world’s poor, unhealthy, underfed, and uneducated.They rarely cause violent conflicts but too often bear their consequences.Women are absent from negotiations about peace and security to end those conflicts.Their voices simply are not being heard.在北京出席会议的189个国家的代表通过了一项《行动纲领》，保证要增加妇女获得教育、医疗、就业和信贷的机会，并保护她们在生活中免遭暴力的权利。我们已经取得巨大的进展，但仍然有很长的路要走。在世界上的贫穷、患病、挨饿和未受过教育人群中，妇女仍然占大多数。她们中很少有人引起暴力冲突，但却经常承担暴力冲突带来的各种后果。在为结束这些冲突而举行的有关和平与安全问题的各种协商中，没有妇女参加。没有人听取她们的意见。

Today, the United States is making women a cornerstone of foreign policy because we think it’s the right thing to do, but we also believe it’s the smart thing to do as well.Investing in the potential of the world’s women and girls is one of the surest ways to achieve global economic progress, political stability, and greater prosperity for women — and men — the world over.今天，美国正在把妇女工作作为外交政策的基石，因为我们认为这是正确之举，但我们同时也认为这是智慧之举。通过投资发挥世界女性的潜力是实现全球经济发展、政治稳定和全世界妇女及男性带来更大繁荣的最有保障的方式之一。

So on this International Women’s Day, let us rededicate ourselves to advancing and protecting the rights of women and girls, and to join together to ensure that no one is left behind in the 21st century.因此，值此国际妇女节之际，让我们继续献身于促进与保护妇女和女童的权利，团结一致，以确保在21世纪没有任何人掉队。

第四篇：克林顿国务卿在美中贸易全国委员会晚宴的讲话

克林顿国务卿在美中贸易全国委员会晚宴的讲话

Thank you so much, Carla, and thanks for your leadership in this undertaking as well as so much else.It’s wonderful to be here at the end of two very busy and productive days of the Strategic and Economic Dialogue.Secretary Geithner and I were privileged to co-lead this effort, and we were especially pleased that Vice Premier Wang and State Councilor Dai were our counterparts.We believe that these very productive conversations have helped to lay the foundation for what both President Obama and President Hu called a positive, cooperative, and comprehensive U.S.-Chinese relationship for the 21st century.非常感谢，卡拉，谢谢你在这项事业和其他众多事务中发挥的领导作用。能在美中战略与经济对话（Strategic and Economic Dialogue）繁忙而富有成果的两天会议结束后来到这里出席晚宴真是令人愉快。盖特纳（Geithner）部长和我十分荣幸地共同主持这一对话，同时，我们也为有王岐山副总理和戴秉国国务委员与我们共同主持对话而感到特别高兴。我们认为，这些极富成果的讨论有助于为发展奥巴马总统和胡锦涛主席所说的21世纪积极合作全面的美中关系奠定基础。

As part of this process, we are enlisting the full range of talent within our governments to tackle problems that spill over not just borders and oceans, but also traditional bureaucratic boundaries, which are sometimes the hardest to overcome, from climate change to trade and investment to poverty and disease.作为这一进程的一部分，我们充分调动了两国政府内部各方面的杰出人才，以便解决气候变化、贸易投资、贫困与疾病及其他各类棘手问题，这些问题不仅超越各国的国境和海域，也超越了政府各部门之间的传统界线，而这种界线有时最难克服。

Just as no nation today can solve the challenges we face alone, neither can government work in isolation.The issues are just are too varied and complex for that.So engaging the expertise, the experience, and the energy of those outside government – including the private sector, and all of you here tonight – is vital to our future progress.正如今天没有任何一个国家有能力独自应对我们面临的各种挑战，政府也不能孤立运作，因为需要解决的问题纷繁而复杂。因此，鼓励政府部门以外的人才——包括民营部门的人才和今晚在场的各位——参与，利用他们的专业知识、经验与精力，对取得未来的进展至关重要。

I also am delighted that we are going to have very soon a new ambassador from the United States to China.Governor Huntsman, who will soon be – maybe even confirmed tonight – Ambassador Huntsman, is looking forward to working not only on behalf of our nation’s policies but really representing the American people to the Chinese people.我也为我们即将有一位新任美国驻华大使而感到高兴。亨茨曼（Huntsman，中文名洪博培）州长，他很快——或许今晚就会被确认——亨茨曼大使不仅期待着为执行我国的政策而工作，而且期待着作为美国人民的代表与中国人民交往。

We want the entrepreneurs and the innovators in both of our countries to know that we’re behind their dreams and their efforts.We want people who are working to solve problems in research labs and on the front lines of innovation to know that we’re looking to support their efforts.Because we think public-private partnerships are a centerpiece of the important work that we are doing to build understanding and create new avenues of cooperation.我们希望美中两国的企业家和创新者们知道我们支持他们的梦想和努力。我们希望在实验室里努力解决问题的科研人员和工作在创新第一线的人们知道我们一心要支持他们的努力，因为我们认为政府和民间结成的伙伴关系是我们为建立相互了解、开辟新的合作途径所从事的重要工作的核心内容。

Now, I understand that Vice Premier Wang said a few words to you about the Shanghai Expo.(Laughter.)And I want to reinforce his message.The theme for the Expo, ―Better City – Better Life,‖ will present a vision of a sustainable, healthy, and prosperous world in the 21st century.It’s anticipated that more than 70 million people will visit and more than 190 nations will participate.Six months ago, it wasn’t at all clear that the United States would be one of those 190 nations, but thanks to a number of you, we are on track to be able to do so.And I salute Vice Premier Wang for his leadership.He was, as some of you know, the chair of the committee for the Beijing Olympics, so if that is any indication of his organizational acuity, I think we can look forward to a very successful Shanghai Expo.我明白王岐山副总理刚才就上海世博会（Shanghai Expo）向你们说了几句话。（笑声）我想加强他要传达的信息。上海世博会的主题，―城市，让生活更美好‖（Better City——Better Life），将展现21世纪一个可持续的、健康、繁荣世界的愿景。预期上海世博会将吸引7000多万人参观，190多个国家参展。6个月前，还完全不清楚美国是否会成为这190个国家中的一个。但由于你们中间一些人的努力，我们将能按期参展。我要向王副总理的领导能力致敬。你们中间有些人知道，他是北京奥运会筹委会主席，如果这能表明他的高度组织能力的话，我认为我们可以期待上海世博会取得圆满成功。

And the U.S.National Pavilion will be informative, educational, and interactive, showcasing American ingenuity, looking at how we can address together global challenges like climate change and clean energy, sustainable agriculture, mass transit, health, and economic development.We are delighted that a number of leading American companies such as GE and Pepsico, Chevron, Marriott, Corning, and others have signed on to be part of putting together this visionary pavilion that will showcase much of what is best about our country.There is, actually, a model of the Pavilion somewhere around here that I urge you to take a look at.This is shameless, I know, but that’s part of the job.(Laughter.)

美国国家馆将具有知识性、教育性和互动性，展示美国的独创力，并展望我们如何共同应对气候变化和清洁能源、农业可持续发展、公共交通、健康和经济发展等全球性挑战。我们高兴地看到通用电气公司、百事公司、雪佛龙公司、万豪酒店集团、康宁公司及其他美国大公司已经参与建成这个反映未来远景的展厅的努力，以展示我国的一些精华。而且，这附近就有一个美国馆的模型，我希望你们都去看看。我知道这有点厚脸皮，但这是我工作的一部分。（笑声）

We have formally signed a Participation Contract.We have a U.S.Commissioner General, Jose Villarreal.My Special Representative for Global Partnerships, Elizabeth Bagley, Ambassador Bagley, is here.We have now raised more than half the funds needed to begin construction.I have told both the Vice Premier and the State Councilor that, if necessary, I will personally build it in order to get it ready by the May opening.(Laughter.)Commerce Secretary Gary Locke recently traveled to Shanghai for the Pavilion’s groundbreaking ceremony.我们已经正式签署参展合同。我们有一位美国展区总代表（U.S.Commissioner General），名叫费乐友（Jose Villarreal）。我任命的负责全球伙伴关系事务的特别代表（Special Representative for Global Partnerships）伊丽莎白·巴格利（Elizabeth Bagley）大使今天在座。我们现已筹集到开工建馆所需资金的一半以上。我已经告诉副总理和国务委员，如果有必要，我本人将亲自参加施工，以确保在五月份开幕前完工。（笑声）商务部长骆家辉（Gary Locke）刚刚到上海出席了美国馆的奠基仪式。

So we are on task, as they say.And Ambassador Bagley, along with her deputy, Special Representative Kris Balderston, are here tonight, obviously more than willing to answer any questions.因此，如他们所言，我们正在完成任务。巴格利大使和她的副手，特别代表克里斯·鲍尔德斯顿（Kris Balderston）今晚都在座，他们显然非常乐意回答任何问题。

Now, I mention this at some length because we feel very strongly that this partnership between China and the United States for the 21st century needs to be manifest in visible ways.Secretary Geithner, at the conclusion of his discussions with the Vice Premier, announced some very positive findings and commitments of moving forward on our economic recovery efforts.State Councilor Dai and I discussed, literally, every part of the world and have a very good understanding of how we can continue to work together.我之所以比较详尽地谈到这些问题，是因为我们非常强烈地感到中国和美国在21世纪的这种伙伴关系应当以看得见的方式得到体现。盖特纳部长在结束同副总理的磋商时宣布了一些能够推动我们的经济复苏努力的非常积极的结论和承诺。戴秉国国务委员和我进行的磋商涉及全世界几乎所有地区，我们对于如何继续共同努力有着很好的认识。

But this is all about the future.And I’ve told this story before, but I want to end before I have the great privilege of introducing the next speaker.State Councilor Dai and I had a wonderful, relaxing social dinner Sunday night at the Blair House, a very small dinner where we spent time just talking about everything and getting to know each other better.It wasn’t about the business of two great countries trying to determine the best way forward for our people and the world, but it touched on what is important.但这些都是关于未来的事情。我以前已经讲过这个故事，但我要在有幸介绍下一位演讲者之前把它讲完。星期天晚上，戴国务委员与我在布莱尔宾馆（Blair House）出席一个十分美好和轻松愉快的社交晚宴。这是一场规模很小的晚宴，我们交谈的话题可谓天南地北，无所不包，彼此加深了了解。我们谈的不是两个伟大国家的公务——如何努力为两国人民和全世界决定今后走哪条最好的道路，但却关系到一件十分重要的事情。

And what is important is that Councilor Dai had just had a new grandson.And he told me with that wonderful smile that lights up his face, and we were thinking about the significance of what we were to embark on for the last two days.And I suggested that before every meeting we bring pictures of our children and our grandchildren, because truly, that is what this work is all about.That is what should guide us and inspire us and chasten us with respect to the decisions that we make.So that is going to certainly be a principle of participation and commitment that Councilor Dai and I intend to pursue.这件十分重要的事情是：戴国务委员刚刚得了一个孙子。他跟我讲起这件事的时候，脸上绽开灿烂的笑容。我们当时想到这两天的会议所启动的进程的重大意义。我建议每次开会前我们把我们的孩子和我们的孙子孙女的照片带来，因为的确这就是我们这项工作的真正目的。这就是在我们作出决定时应该引导我们、鼓舞我们、鞭策我们的原则。因此它将肯定成为戴国务委员和我打算遵循的参与和承诺的原则。

Because this is part of a new beginning.It is the culmination of a process begun decades ago, when Dr.Kissinger was instrumental in opening the door to the possibility that then came into fruition years, ten years, later of normalized relations.We were so constantly thinking of Henry Kissinger over the last days getting ready for this, because his work, his courage, the risk that he took, has led us in many ways to this evening.因为这是一项新起点的组成部分。这是数十年前开始的一个进程的结果。当年基辛格博士发挥了重要作用，帮助打开了充满机遇的大门，十年后结出硕果，实现了两国关系正常化。我们在为会议做准备的最后日子里经常想到亨利·基辛格，因为他所做的工作、他的勇气、他所承担的风险在许多方面引导我们走向今晚。

And on a personal note, let me say that since taking this job, I’ve relied on the wise counsel of many of my predecessors, and Secretary Kissinger has been among the most generous and thoughtful with his guidance and advice.So once again, we are grateful that he is here with us tonight as we continue to work toward something that he saw on the horizon and convinced others that it was possible to see and move toward a stronger U.S.-China relationship.Please join me in welcoming Secretary – former Secretary Henry Kissinger.(Applause.)就我个人而言，请允许我说明：自从担任这项工作以来，我受益于许多前任国务卿的智慧，其中基辛格国务卿是提供最慷慨、最周详的指导与忠告的国务卿之一。因此我们要再次表示感谢，感谢今晚他在我们继续朝着他指出的方向努力时来这里与我们聚会，当年他使众人相信，经过努力，有朝一日美国和中国能够建立更加强有力的关系。请和我一起欢迎国务卿、前国务卿亨利·基辛格。
