I want to also thank the tour director who gave us a wonderful tour through the museum. Bai Hong and Yang F

2、uquan, Vice President of the local Academy of Social Science who I just met, as well as Lu Tianyun, Director General of the Foreign Affairs Office up here at Kunming. Before I go any farther Id like to introduce my wife, Melodee Hanes. I have a very good time when Im in groups introducing Mel and te

3、lling everybody this is my “Tai tai, wo de tai, tai.” Sometimes she says maybe the word should be a little bit more formal. That “tai tai” is a little informal, but I dont care. Shes my “tai tai.” I wanted to tell you how pleased we are, Mel and I, to be here at Kunming, for many many reasons. One i

4、s your wonderful perfect weather. It is truly heaven. When I next see President Xi Im going to suggest he move the nations capital from Beijing to Kunming. Now all of you here in Kunming may not like that. With all the subway construction here, which is delaying traffic, you probably dont want all t

5、hese presidential motorcades in Kunming blocking traffic even further. So I suspect that you would not be too happy with the nations capital moving to Kunming. But, thank you so much. Its so good to be here. This is our first visit, Mel and I. Im so impressed, as I mentioned. And we like Kunming so

6、much that during lunch today we were comparing notes and asking each other, when can we return? Were thinking of probably returning sometime this summer. You might ask, why are we here today at the Kunming Museum? The answer is very simple. Let me start with a story about an American pilot named Lie

7、utenant Robert H. Mooney. Lieutenant Mooney, as you all know, its a story well known here in Kunming, Lieutenant Mooney made the ultimate sacrifice. He and other Flying Tiger pilots from the United States 14th Air Force were assigned to protect an airfield in Dali from enemy bombers. The airfield wa

8、s jointly built by U.S. and Chinese workers. In the battle to protect the airfield, Lieutenant Mooney shot down at least two enemy planes before his plane was damaged in a dogfight near the village of Xiangyun. And rather than eject, his plane was very damaged, it was clear the plane was going down.

9、 But rather than eject and save himself which would mean that his plane would crash into the village, Lieutenant Mooney did something else. He steered the plane away from Xiangyun as villagers watched below. But by the time he finally ejected, you know the story, it was too late. But by sparing the

10、village, Lieutenant Mooney died of injuries he suffered when he jumped out of his plane but the parachute didnt open. He therefore as a consequence died. He gave his life for the people of Xiangyun village. After his death the people of Xiangyun, many of you here, dedicated a monument to him at the

11、crash site. To this day many villagers here at Xiangyun tidy up Lieutenant Mooneys monument each year on Tomb Sweeping Day. Why? To express their gratitude for his sacrifice. Lieutenant Mooney was just one of 2,590 American service men and women who died in China during the Second World War. Through

12、out the war, U.S. combatants in China were touched by the kindness and bravery of their Chinese partners. Brave men and women provided assistance and shelter to thousands of American airmen whose planes were shot down for a cause they shared. In fact over at the museum just an hour or so ago we saw

13、many photographs of Chinese helping give care and assistance to airmen and soldiers who were injured in the war. People from both countries sacrificed greatly. I might say too at lunch today I sat next to Mr. Sun Guansheng who I think is head of the Flying Tigers Association here in Kunming and we s

14、hared many stories together. Hes a very perceptive man. Im deeply impressed with him. And we talked about history, beginning with Sun Yat-Sen and Whampoa the development of the academy that trained soldiers, and Claire Chennault and Stillwell and others who were here. I just want to complement him.

15、Hes quite a wonderful man. The Second World War has a personal meaning for me and for my wife Mel. We are both children of World War II veterans. My father served in the U.S. Air Force not here, but in Europe. Mels father was here in China. He was a United States pilot. He loved to tell stories of t

16、he missions that he flew just north of Shanghai. Ive heard many stories about how proud he was to fight alongside the Chinese during the war. In fact Mel has a piece of silk that he carried with him when he was flying in battle over China. The silk includes a picture of the American flag as well as

17、language in Chinese basically saying, “Im an American. Im here flying to help China against the Japanese. And if you find me please help and assist me and give me care.” It was a silk message he carried with him in case he was shot down. So its clear that Chinese and Americans performed heroic acts

18、of bravery. Both sides sacrificed and demonstrated just how committed our two countries were to helping each other in a moment of need. Bonds like these are lasting. We cant forget the bravery and sacrifices of men and women on both sides that came together for a common cause. Our history here and o

19、ur partnership in the war fighting fascism is really a foundation for us to build on. It reminds me very much of the importance of this relationship. That is the relationship between China and the United States. I think its the most important relationship between any two countries in the world today

20、 and its up to us to work hard to make sure we get that, make that right. The only way to do that is to work together as we did in critical moments in the past. The cooperation between our two countries is only one part of the efforts we have to undertake. We have to also work with others to make su

21、re this world is a better place than the one we found. Since our victory over fascism 70 years ago Asia has enjoyed unprecedented peace and prosperity. If you pause and think about it just a few minutes, its incredible how much Asia has grown and prospered since the end of World War II. The Japan of

22、 1945 is gone. Todays Japan is a democracy, a close U.S. ally and a critical economic partner to both our countries. In fact, steady ties between China and Japan help ensure a stable regional security environment that enables East Asia to flourish. Healthy relations between China and Japan are good

23、for all. Thats why, frankly, we Americans welcomed the Four Point Agreement that President Xi and Prime Minister Abe reached just this last November, and its why we encourage further involvement and the cooperative effort between China and Japan. Its helpful for both countries and also for the rest

24、of the world. Across the world, countries that once fought against each other now work together on many of the worlds most pressing issues. So much more can be accomplished when they work together. The world is growing smaller and many of the threats we face today are becoming more urgent. The clock

25、 is ticking. We live at a critical moment in history. Today China and the United States face great challenges together on many fronts. North Korea and Iranian nuclear programs, violent extremism, pandemic diseases like Ebola, food security, environmental protection and climate change. These are just

26、 a few of the many issues where our futures are intertwined, interrelated-the U.S. and China and the rest of the world. Ive had this job now representing the United States in China about ten months. I love it. Its the best job in the world. But in my one year here, I must tell you just how deeply he

27、artened I am that our two countries are working so closely together and I sense becoming even closer together. First of all, our economic relations are very deep and contribute to prosperity in both countries. Nearly 11 billion RMB worth of goods and services flow between our countries every day. Ou

28、r total annual bilateral trade reached about 3.7 trillion Renminbi in 2013. Thats about 700 million iPhones or to say it another way, about five times what it was when China joined the WTO back 13 years ago. And theres more. Members of our militaries are working side by side in Africa to bring Ebola

29、 under control and to counter piracy in the Gulf of Aden. Its really quite encouraging. In many respects it brings opportunities but it also brings responsibilities. Last November I was with President Obama in Beijing, with him and with President Xi when they made that very historic agreement on car

30、bon emissions. That was an historic agreement. Stop and think about it. Our two countries agreed to limit, actually limit, carbon emissions by a certain date, setting a precedent for all countries around the world to also follow suit and set their own carbon emission limitation dates so that togethe

31、r all countries of the world can affect climate change. As you know, the next major step is in Paris later this year and if we work very hard together we can lead the world in making sure that the Paris Conference is successful. President Obama and President Xi also made a landmark announcement on v

32、isas that can help nearly everyone in this room. Theyve extended the validity of business and tourist visas to ten years, and extended student and exchange visas to five years. Weve already issued tens of thousands of new visas since that announcement just two months ago. That was last year. So I as

33、k you-join me this year at the 70th Anniversary of the end of World War II to honor Lieutenant Mooney and all that we have achieved together. Lets look ahead together to address the challenges facing our two countries and the world. The sacrifices here, here in Kunming, showed that when the United S

34、tates and China work together we can accomplish great things. That work continues. Thats why Im here with you. We have a responsibility to get this relationship between our two countries right. Its rewarding and its also, I might add, a lot of fun. So onward, we move together. And I thank you very m

35、uch for letting me be here with you. Thank you.（分数：100.00）_CATTI 三级口译英译汉真题 2015 年 11 月答案解析(总分：100.00，做题时间：120 分钟)一、English-Chinese Tran(总题数：1，分数：100.00)1.
