非常感謝，卡拉，謝謝你在這項(xiàng)事業(yè)和其他眾多事務(wù)中發(fā)揮的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)作用。能在美中戰(zhàn)略與經(jīng)濟(jì)對(duì)話（StrategicandEconomicDialogue）繁忙而富有成果的兩天會(huì)議結(jié)束后來(lái)到這里出席晚宴真是令人愉快。蓋特納（Geithner）部長(zhǎng)和我十分榮幸地共同主持這一對(duì)話，同時(shí)，我們也為有王岐山副總理和戴秉國(guó)國(guó)務(wù)委員與我們共同主持對(duì)話而感到特別高興。我們認(rèn)為，這些極富成果的討論有助于為發(fā)展奧巴馬總統(tǒng)和胡錦濤主席所說(shuō)的21世紀(jì)積極合作全面的美中關(guān)系奠定基礎(chǔ)。Aspartofthisprocess,weareenlistingthefullrangeoftalentwithinourgovernmentstotackleproblemsthatspillovernotjustbordersandoceans,butalsotraditionalbureaucraticboundaries,whicharesometimesthehardesttoovercome,fromclimatechangetotradeandinvestmenttopovertyanddisease.

作為這一進(jìn)程的一部分，我們充分調(diào)動(dòng)了兩國(guó)政府內(nèi)部各方面的杰出人才，以便解決氣候變化、貿(mào)易投資、貧困與疾病及其他各類棘手問(wèn)題，這些問(wèn)題不僅超越各國(guó)的國(guó)境和海域，也超越了政府各部門之間的傳統(tǒng)界線，而這種界線有時(shí)最難克服。Justasnonationtodaycansolvethechallengeswefacealone,neithercangovernmentworkinisolation.Theissuesarejustaretoovariedandcomplexforthat.Soengagingtheexpertise,theexperience,andtheenergyofthoseoutsidegovernment–includingtheprivatesector,andallofyouheretonight–isvitaltoourfutureprogress.

正如今天沒(méi)有任何一個(gè)國(guó)家有能力獨(dú)自應(yīng)對(duì)我們面臨的各種挑戰(zhàn)，政府也不能孤立運(yùn)作，因?yàn)樾枰鉀Q的問(wèn)題紛繁而復(fù)雜。因此，鼓勵(lì)政府部門以外的人才——包括民營(yíng)部門的人才和今晚在場(chǎng)的各位——參與，利用他們的專業(yè)知識(shí)、經(jīng)驗(yàn)與精力，對(duì)取得未來(lái)的進(jìn)展至關(guān)重要。IalsoamdelightedthatwearegoingtohaveverysoonanewambassadorfromtheUnitedStatestoChina.GovernorHuntsman,whowillsoonbe–maybeevenconfirmedtonight–AmbassadorHuntsman,islookingforwardtoworkingnotonlyonbehalfofournation’spoliciesbutreallyrepresentingtheAmericanpeopletotheChinesepeople.

我也為我們即將有一位新任美國(guó)駐華大使而感到高興。亨茨曼（Huntsman，中文名洪博培）州長(zhǎng)，他很快——或許今晚就會(huì)被確認(rèn)——亨茨曼大使不僅期待著為執(zhí)行我國(guó)的政策而工作，而且期待著作為美國(guó)人民的代表與中國(guó)人民交往。Wewanttheentrepreneursandtheinnovatorsinbothofourcountriestoknowthatwe’rebehindtheirdreamsandtheirefforts.Wewantpeoplewhoareworkingtosolveproblemsinresearchlabsandonthefrontlinesofinnovationtoknowthatwe’relookingtosupporttheirefforts.Becausewethinkpublic-privatepartnershipsareacenterpieceoftheimportantworkthatwearedoingtobuildunderstandingandcreatenewavenuesofcooperation.

我們希望美中兩國(guó)的企業(yè)家和創(chuàng)新者們知道我們支持他們的夢(mèng)想和努力。我們希望在實(shí)驗(yàn)室里努力解決問(wèn)題的科研人員和工作在創(chuàng)新第一線的人們知道我們一心要支持他們的努力，因Butthisisallaboutthefuture.AndI’vetoldthisstorybefore,butIwanttoendbeforeIhavethegreatprivilegeofintroducingthenextspeaker.StateCouncilorDaiandIhadawonderful,relaxingsocialdinnerSundaynightattheBlairHouse,averysmalldinnerwherewespenttimejusttalkingabouteverythingandgettingtoknoweachotherbetter.Itwasn’taboutthebusinessoftwogreatcountriestryingtodeterminethebestwayforwardforourpeopleandtheworld,butittouchedonwhatisimportant.

但這些都是關(guān)于未來(lái)的事情。我以前已經(jīng)講過(guò)這個(gè)故事，但我要在有幸介紹下一位演講者之前把它講完。星期天晚上，戴國(guó)務(wù)委員與我在布萊爾賓館（BlairHouse）出席一個(gè)十分美好和輕松愉快的社交晚宴。這是一場(chǎng)規(guī)模很小的晚宴，我們交談的話題可謂天南地北，無(wú)所不包，彼此加深了了解。我們談的不是兩個(gè)偉大國(guó)家的公務(wù)——如何努力為兩國(guó)人民和全世界決定今后走哪條最好的道路，但卻關(guān)系到一件十分重要的事情。AndwhatisimportantisthatCouncilorDaihadjusthadanewgrandson.Andhetoldmewiththatwonderfulsmilethatlightsuphisface,andwewerethinkingaboutthesignificanceofwhatweweretoembarkonforthelasttwodays.AndIsuggestedthatbeforeeverymeetingwebringpicturesofourchildrenandourgrandchildren,becausetruly,thatiswhatthisworkisallabout.Thatiswhatshouldguideusandinspireusandchastenuswithrespecttothedecisionsthatwemake.SothatisgoingtocertainlybeaprincipleofparticipationandcommitmentthatCouncilorDaiandIintendtopursue.

這件十分重要的事情是：戴國(guó)務(wù)委員剛剛得了一個(gè)孫子。他跟我講起這件事的時(shí)候，臉上綻開(kāi)燦爛的笑容。我們當(dāng)時(shí)想到這兩天的會(huì)議所啟動(dòng)的進(jìn)程的重大意義。我建議每次開(kāi)會(huì)前我們把我們的孩子和我們的孫子孫女的照片帶來(lái)，因?yàn)榈拇_這就是我們這項(xiàng)工作的真正目的。這就是在我們作出決定時(shí)應(yīng)該引導(dǎo)我們、鼓舞我們、鞭策我們的原則。因此它將肯定成為戴國(guó)務(wù)委員和我打算遵循的參與和承諾的原則。Becausethisispartofanewbeginning.Itistheculminationofaprocessbegundecadesago,whenDr.Kissingerwasinstrumentalinopeningthedoortothepossibilitythatthencameintofruitionyears,tenyears,laterofnormalizedrelations.WeweresoconstantlythinkingofHenryKissingeroverthelastdaysgettingreadyforthis,becausehiswork,hiscourage,theriskthathetook,hasledusinmanywaystothisevening.

因?yàn)檫@是一項(xiàng)新起點(diǎn)的組成部分。這是數(shù)十年前開(kāi)始的一個(gè)進(jìn)程的結(jié)果。當(dāng)年基辛格博士發(fā)揮了重要作用，幫助打開(kāi)了充滿機(jī)遇的大門，十年后結(jié)出碩果，實(shí)現(xiàn)了兩國(guó)關(guān)系正常化。我們?cè)跒闀?huì)議做準(zhǔn)備的最后日子里經(jīng)常想到亨利·基辛格，因?yàn)樗龅墓ぷ?、他的勇氣、他所承?dān)的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)在許多方面引導(dǎo)我們走向今晚。Andonapersonalnote,letmesaythatsincetakingthisjob,I’vereliedonthewisecounselofmanyofmypredecessors,andSecretaryKissingerhasbeenamongthemostgenerousandthoughtfulwithhisguidanceandadvice.Soonceagain,wearegratefulthatheisherewithustonightaswecontinuetoworktowardsomethingthathesawonthehorizonandconvincedothersthatitwaspossibletoseeandmovetowardastrongerU.S.-C
