英王伊丽莎白二世登基60周年英语演讲稿 　　My Lords and Members of the House of Commons, 　　各位上下议院的议员们： 　　秦昭襄王七年，秦国的华阳君芈戎攻打楚国，斩首了3万人，杀了楚国的大将景缺，攻占了襄城(河南许昌襄城)，秦丞相樗里子病死了，楼缓继为丞相。 　　I am most grateful for your Loyal Addresses and the generous words of the Lord Speaker and Mr. Speaker. 　　我非常感谢主议长和议长先生的衷心赞扬。 　　This great institution has been at the heart of the country and the lives of our people throughout its history. 　　这个伟大的机构(议会)已经成为国家历史的心脏和我们民众生活的生命。 　　As Parliamentarians, you share with your forebears a fundamental role in the laws and decisions of your own age. 　　公元6年，王莽居位摄政，二年后逼宫称帝，创立新朝，改元始建，取汉家天下而代之。这时的王莽，一改当初谦恭克让的样子，变得骄奢淫逸，暴虐专横，他推广了一系列不合时宜的新政，屡次改变币制、官制，不断挑起边疆战端，人民赋税繁重，朝廷政治黑暗，再加上连年灾荒，最终激发了极为尖锐的社会矛盾。从天凤四年(公元17年)开始，全国各地农民起义此起彼伏，其中规模最大的是绿林、赤眉两支起义军。最终在地皇四年(公元23年)，王莽被杀，新朝灭亡了。但在这十七年间，王莽的所有活动都居限于长安皇宫之中，始终未出京城半步。所以，要说王莽亲自赶刘秀，根本就是不可能的事情。 　　作为国会议员，你分享了你的祖先中的一个根本性法律。 　　Parliament has survived as an unshakeable cornerstone of our constitution and our way of life. 　　议会已经成为不可动摇的基石，存在于我们的宪法和生活方式中。 　　History links monarchs and Parliament, a connecting thread from one period to the next. 　　历史联系着君主和议会，像一根纽带把一个时代和下一个时代连接起来。 　　So, in an era when the regular, worthy rhythm of life is less eye-catching than doing something extraordinary, I am reassured that I am merely the second Sovereign to celebrate a Diamond Jubilee. 　　所以，在做不平凡事比平常生活更受关注的时代，我很高兴我能成为第二个庆祝钻禧年的君主。 　　As today, it was my privilege to address you during my Silver and Golden Jubilees. 　　到今天为止，你们能参加我银禧和金禧的盛典，我很荣幸。 　　Many of you were present ten years ago and some of you will recall the occasion in 1977. 　　十年前你们中的很多人也出席了。你们中的一些人依然能回忆出1977年的情景。 　　The anniversary reminded me of the remarkable changes that have occurred since theCoronation, many of them for the better; and of the things that have remained constant, suchas the importance of family, friendship and good neighbourliness. 　　Since my Accession, I have been a regular visitor to the Palace of Westminster and, at the last count, have had the pleasurable duty of treating with twelve Pri
