农业是人类衣食之源，农业是国民经济其它部门得以生存和发展的基础，没有农业，人们就不能生存，社会生产就不能继续下去。众所周知，中国的耕地只占世界可耕地的百分之七，却养活了12亿多人，即世界人口的21%。自从1949年中华人民共和国建国以来，国家高度重视发展农业。 特别是从1949年我国实行改革开放的各项政策以来，其中包括以农业为国民经济的基础这一政策， 中国在发展农业方面取得了巨大成就。到1996年，乡镇企业总产值达到了 5.8万亿元，从业的劳动力达到5亿人。乡镇企业包括工业，农业，运输，交通，还有建筑业以及各种服务行业。乡镇企业生产种类繁多的商品，从农业所需的产品，到各种日用必需品，食品，副业产品，成衣，轻工业所需的材料，以及为国际市场生产的种种产品。乡镇企业的发展给中国广大农村的剩余穷动力提供了就业的机会，极大地改善了我国农村人民的生活水平，极大地促进了国家的全面繁荣。

在中国，许多家庭把希望放在他们的孩子身上。希望他们的孩子能够帮助他们实现上大学的梦想。作为新一代的独生子女一中国计划生育的产物，他们所面临各种学业上的压力。这其中主要是怎样考进与重点高中与重点大学。许多孩子从上小学开始就要做很多作业，他们没有时间娱乐，甚至休息。他们早6点钟上学，晚上11点才能上床睡觉。到周末的时候他们还要去上各种补习班。这种教育无法培养学生全面发展，而且还会给青少年少年带来许多身体与心理上的伤害。他们也会在这种以 考试为中心的教育模式中逐渐失去对学习的兴趣。以考试为中心的教育模式很容易导致学校、家长、 学生本人只以学习成绩怍为评估标准。长此以往，这种教育理念会导致一祌非常不健康的教育价值观。所以，教育体制改革，全面开展青少年的素质教育是中国教育亟待解决的问题。

中美在人权问题上既有分歧，也有共同点。两千多年以前中国汉代的
思想家董仲舒就曾经说过，“天地之精，所以生物者，莫贵於人”。所以中华民族历来是尊重和维护人的尊严和权益。今天中国政府庄严地承诺，促进和保护人权与基本自由。

美国是世界上最发达的国家，人均国内生产总值近三万美元，中国是一个有十二亿人口的发展中国家，人均国内生产总值不足七百美元。所以两国社会制度、意识形态、历史传统、和文化背景都不相同。两国在实现人权和基本自由的途径和方式上也不同，双方对一些问题的看法不一致和存在分歧这并不奇怪。中国强调首先要重视生存权和发展权，同时努力加强民主和法制建设，保护人民的经济、社会、文化、公民和政治权力。中国是人民当家作主的社会和国家，中国人民可以透过直接和间接的方式选举自己的人大代表，并且充分表达自己的意见，行使自己的政治权力。（江泽民克林顿记者招待会 江泽民讲话 mtizt.com注）

I believe both Chinese and Americans aspire to many of the same things: to provide for our families, to teach our children, to build our community, to protect our earth, to shape our own future and pass brighter possibilities on to our children.

There may be those here and back in America, who wonder whether close ties and deep friendship between America and China are good. Clearly the answer is Yes. We have a powerful ability to help each other grow. We can learn from each other. As two great nations, we have a special responsibility to the future of the world. The steps we take over the next week will lead to greater strides for our people in the years ahead.

Here in this city of your magnificent history, we must always remember that we too are ancestors. Someday our children and their children will ask if we did all we could to build just societies and a more peaceful world. Let our monument be their judgement that we did that. Let our progress include all people with all their differences, moving toward a common destiny.

Let us give new meaning to the words written in the ancient book of rites, that you call, the Li Ji, “When the great way is followed, all under heaven will be equal.”（选自在西安欢迎仪式上的演说Remarks in welcoming ceremonies in Xi’an mtizt.注）

The purpose of memory (STM) training in interpreting is to achieve a better understanding of the source language, which will lead to adequate interpreting. As Lin Yuru et al. put it, “Memory in consecutive interpreting consists of nothing more than understanding the meaning, which is conveyed by the words” (Lin et al., 1999:9). Understanding is the first step in successful interpreting; therefore, memory training is to be provided in the early stage of interpreter training. Memory functions differently in consecutive and simultaneous interpreting, because the duration of memory is longer in CI than in SI. There are different methods of training STM for CI and SI respectively. Interpreting starts with the encoding of the information from the original speaker. According to Gile’s Effort Model, interpreting is an STM-centered activity; the process of interpreting could be re-postulated into:

Encoding of information from the Source Language + Storing Information + Retrieval of Information + Decoding Information into the Target language.（选自 Memory Training in Interpreting mtizt.com注）

Digital technologies are fast becoming indispensable. A growing array of devices and technologies are on offer today, making users much more mobile.

While it took around 21 years to reach the first billion mobile users, the second billion signed up in just three years.

Therefore, it is not surprising that in today’s world, digital business becomes big business.

The clearest evidence for this is at the macro-economic level, where the contribution of ICTs to the general economy has grown rapidly, regardless of falling prices.

Mobile, broadband, user-generated content and IPTV are some of the technologies highlighted as the underlying enablers of new lifestyles.

The report, part of a series written yearly by ITU, explores the changing nature and role of the digital individual and of digital identity with examples and scenarios.

The “digital-life” report shows human lives increasingly entwined with technology enabling virtual identities to be constructed and digital personae to exist with recreational commercial and sometimes malicious purpose.（Excerpt from an ITU news report 选自国际电信联盟新闻稿 mtizt.com注）
