曾荫权WTO香港会议演讲.docVIP

香港特首曾荫权在WTO部长级会议上的致辞 Your Excellencies Distinguished Ministers, Director-General Mr. Lamy, Chair of the General Council, Your Excellency Ambassador Mohamed, Honorable delegates and Guests, Ladies and Gentlemen, 各位部长阁下、总干事拉米先生、常务理事会主席Mohamed大使、各位代表、各位嘉宾： First of all, I wish to extend a warm Hong Kong welcome to all of you. Hong Kong, China is deeply honored to be the host of the Sixth Ministerial Conference of the World Trade Organization. 恰当预测----开篇熟语（缩短时差，稳定心态，有利开局） 首先，热烈欢迎各位莅临香港。中国香港深感荣幸能够主办世界贸易组织第六次部长级会议。（追步法，句序零调整） This week, under this very roof, we have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to enhance the existing international trading environment; to generate wealth on a broader and deeper scale globally; and, most important of all, to help alleviate the pain of poverty for millions of people living in the poorer parts of this world. I am pleased that Hong Kong, China is today at the centre of this admirable enterprise. 这个星期，我们有一个非常难得的机会，共聚一堂，优化现有的国际贸易环境；为全球各地更广泛地创造财富；而最重要的，是帮助贫困地区数以亿计的人民脱离贫穷。我很高兴中国香港今天能牵头肩负这项崇高任务。（追步法，句序零调整） I cannot emphasize strongly enough the importance of the WTO. It is the only international organization that deals with the rules of trade between economies. It is the rules-based forum at which 149 Member Economies negotiate agreements and resolve disputes over trade issues. 反话正说----否定句转换为强调式肯定句（表述到位，符合的语习惯） 世贸对全球极具重要性。世贸是处理全球贸易规则的唯一国际组织，它让149个成员得以根据既定规则商讨贸易协定，解决贸易纷争。 The WTO is also a powerful force in countering the currents of protectionism and discrimination which are responsible to a large extent for the economic hardship suffered by less wealthy and less well-endowed economies. And, ultimately, the WTO is a key component in the global effort to attain the United Nations Millennium Goal of Development in tackling the scourge of poverty and hunger. 顺句驱动----linearity （反应时短，迅捷高效，符合同传特点） 世贸是对抗保护主义和贸易歧视的中坚力量，抗保护主义和贸易歧视往往导致较贫穷、较弱势地区陷入经济困境。 保护主义和贸易歧视，往往导致较贫穷、较弱势地区陷入经济困境，而世贸是对抗保护主义和贸易歧视的主要力量。世贸最终更是全球合力消除贫穷饥饿，达至联合国千年发展目标的力量。 Nor can I ov
