Well, we’re all getting a little emotional and sentimental around here – (laughter) – with about a little over a week to go in my tenure. And I am so pleased to welcome all of you here. I see many, many familiar faces and some good friends in this audience.//谢谢。我们大家在这里都有点激动和动感情——（笑声）——再过一个多星期我就要离任了。我非常高兴欢迎各位到来。我在你们当中看到许许多多熟悉的面孔，还有些好朋友。And I particularly want to thank Assistant Secretary Kurt Campbell for driving not only this program, but so much that we have accomplished in the last four years to deepen and strengthen our relationship with China and others in the region, but particularly with China, as it is such a consequential relationship, one that we believe so strongly in. // Ambassador Zhang, once again, welcome to the State Department. Because it is, for us, a way of making clear that our relations, government-to-government, are obviously essential. But it is those people-to-people ties that are going to determine the quality of the relationship for the future.//我要特别感谢助理国务卿库尔特·坎贝尔不仅为这个项目，而且为在过去四年中我们为深化和加强我们与中国及该地区其他国家——但主要是中国 ——的关系取得的许多成就所发挥的推动作用，因为这是如此意义重大的关系，我们对它如此深信。张大使，再次欢迎您光临国务院。因为，这以一种方式表明我们 的关系——政府对政府的关系——明显地极其重要。然而，决定这一关系未来质量的将是那些人民对人民的联系。Our engagement with China today deals with a wide range of the most pressing challenges and the most exciting opportunities. And when we began looking at ways to make our exchanges with China more productive, we of course ramped up our diplomatic engagement. // We took delegations of investors and entrepreneurs to China. We institutionalized the Strategic and Economic Dialogue. We are very clear that what we’ve tried to build, an architecture that will stand the test of time regardless of what is going on in either of our countries, has been an essential effort.//我们今天与中国的接触涉及
