11月18日，中国国家主席胡锦涛在人民大会堂与首次访华的美国总统奥巴马举行会谈，随后两国元首共同会见了记者。以下是奥巴马总统在胡锦涛主席讲话结束后所作的讲话全文：

[马朝旭]:现在请奥巴马总统致辞。

MODERATOR: Now we would like to give the microphone to President Obama.PRESIDENT OBAMA: Good afternoon.I want to start by thanking President Hu and the Chinese people for the warmth and hospitality that they have shown myself and our delegation since we arrived.We had a wonderful day in Shanghai yesterday, a wonderful discussion with China’s young men and women, and I’m looking forward to the conversations we’ll have and the sights that we’ll see here in Beijing over the next two days.奥巴马总统：下午好。首先我要感谢胡主席和中国人民从我们到来后给予我和代表团的热情款待。昨天，我们在上海度过了非常愉快的一天，同中国男女青年进行了一次十分愉快的讨论。我期待着我们今明两天将在北京进行的会谈和景点参观。

We meet here at a time when the relationship between the United States and China has never been more important to our collective future.The major challenges of the 21st century, from climate change to nuclear proliferation to economic recovery, are challenges that touch both our nations, and challenges that neither of our nations can solve by acting alone.我们是在美中关系对我们的共同未来具有前所未有的重要性的时刻在这里举行会晤。21世纪的各项重大挑战，无论是气候变化、核扩散还是经济复苏，都与我们两个国家相关，而且哪个国家都不能通过单独行动来对付这些挑战。

That’s why the United States welcomes China’s efforts in playing a greater role on the world stage--a role in which a growing economy is joined by growing responsibilities.And that’s why President Hu and I talked about continuing to build a positive, cooperative, and comprehensive relationship between our nations.这就是为什么美国欢迎中国努力在世界舞台上发挥更大的作用——这个作用意味着伴随经济发展而增长的责任。这也就是为什么胡主席和我都谈到要继续建立积极合作全面的美中关系。

As President Hu indicated, we discussed what’s required to sustain this economic recovery so that economic growth is followed by the creation of new jobs and lasting prosperity.So far China’s partnership has proved critical in our effort to pull ourselves out of the worst recession in generations.如胡主席所说，我们讨论了要使经济复苏持续所必须采取的措施，以便使经济增长带来新的就业机会，实现持久繁荣。迄今，与中国的伙伴关系被证明在我们为摆脱几代人以来最严重的衰退所作的努力中至关重要。

Going forward, we agreed to advance the pledge made at the G20 summit in Pittsburgh and pursue a strategy of more balanced economic growth--a strategy where America saves more, spends less, reduces our long-term debt, and where China makes adjustments across a broad range of policies to rebalance its economy and spur domestic demand.This will lead to increased U.S.exports and jobs, on the one hand, and higher living standards in China on the other.展望未来，我们同意推进我们在匹兹堡20国集团峰会上所作的保证，实施经济更平衡增长的策略。根据这一策略，美国要增加储蓄，降低消费，减少长期债务，而中国则要进行各项政策调整以平衡经济，刺激内需。这样，将一方面增加美国的出口和就业机会，另一方面提高中国的生活水平。

As President Hu indicated, we also agreed that maintaining open market and free flows of commerce in both our nations will contribute to our shared prosperity.And I was pleased to note the Chinese commitment, made in past statements, to move toward a more market-oriented exchange rate over time.I emphasized in our discussions, and have others in the region, that doing so based on economic fundamentals would make an essential contribution to the global rebalancing effort.如胡主席所说，我们还一致认为，保持我们两国市场的开放和商贸的自由流通将能增进我们的共同繁荣。我很高兴地注意到，中国多次表示了对逐步实现在更大程度上由市场决定汇率的承诺。我在双方以及在与地区其他各方的讨论中强调，这样按照基本经济原理行事将是对全球经济的重新平衡的重大贡献。

President Hu and I also made progress on the issue of climate change.As the two largest consumers and producers of energy, there can be no solution to this challenge without the efforts of both China and the United States.That’s why we’ve agreed to a series of important new initiatives in this area.As President Hu indicated, we are creating a joint clean energy research center, and have achieved agreements on energy efficiency, renewable energy, cleaner uses of coal, electric vehicles, and shale gas.胡主席和我在气候变化问题上也取得了进展。作为能源的最大消费国和生产国，没有中美两国的共同努力就无法成功地应对这一挑战。因此我们同意在这一领域采取一系列新的重要行动。胡主席已说明，我们将设立一个清洁能源联合研究中心，我们还就能效、可再生能源、清洁使用煤炭、电动车辆和页岩气等问题达成一致。

We also agreed to work toward a successful outcome in Copenhagen.Our aim there, in support of what Prime Minister Rasmussen of Denmark is trying to achieve, is not a partial accord or a political declaration, but rather an accord that covers all of the issues in the negotiations, and one that has immediate operational effect.This kind of comprehensive agreement would be an important step forward in the effort to rally the world around a solution to our climate challenge.And we agreed that each of us would take significant mitigation actions and stand behind these commitments.我们还同意为哥本哈根会议取得成果而努力。为支持丹麦首相拉斯穆森（Rasmussen）所争取实现的目标，我们将不是致力于一项局部性的协议，也不是一份政治宣言，而是一项包含谈判涉及的所有问题的协议，一项可立即运作的协议。这样的全面协议将使动员全世界共同应对气候挑战的努力向前跨出重要一步。我们同意，双方都将采取重大的减缓行动，坚定地履行这些承诺。

On the issue of nonproliferation, President Hu and I discussed our shared commitment to stop the spread of nuclear weapons, and I told him how appreciative I am of China’s support for the global nonproliferation regime as well as the verifiable elimination of North Korea’s nuclear weapons program.在防扩散问题上，胡主席和我讨论了制止核武器扩散的共同承诺，我向胡主席表示了我对中国支持全球防扩散制度和可验证地消除北韩核武器项目的极大赞赏。

We agreed on the importance of resuming the six-party talks as soon as possible.As I said in Tokyo, North Korea has a choice: It can continue down the path of confrontation and provocation that has led to less security, less prosperity, and more isolation from the global community, or it can choose to become a full member of the international community, which will give a better life to its people by living up to international obligations and foregoing nuclear weapons.我们一致认为尽快恢复六方会谈是重要的。正如我在东京说过的，北韩面临一个选择：它可以继续沿着对峙挑衅的道路走下去，结果只会是安全更少，繁荣更小，在全球社会中更加孤立；它也可以选择成为国际社会的正式成员，恪守国际义务，放弃核武器，让自己的人民过上更好的生活。

In the same way, we agreed that the Islamic Republic of Iran must provide assurances to the international community that its nuclear program is peaceful and transparent.On this point, our two nations and the rest of our P5-plus-1 partners are unified.Iran has an opportunity to present and demonstrate its peaceful intentions, but if it fails to take this opportunity there will be consequences.同样地，我们也一致认为伊朗伊斯兰共和国必须向国际社会提供保证，保证其核项目是和平而且透明的。在这一点上，我们两国和五常加一的其他伙伴国意见一致。伊朗有此机会展示和表明其和平的目的，但如果它没能利用这次机会，则将面临后果。

President Hu and I also discussed our mutual interest in security and stability of Afghanistan and Pakistan.And neither country can or should be used as a base for terrorism, and we agreed to cooperate more on meeting this goal, including bringing about more stable, peaceful relations in all of South Asia.胡锦涛主席和我还讨论了我们对阿富汗和巴基斯坦的安全和稳定的共同利益。这两个国家都不能也不应该成为恐怖分子的基地。我们同意为达到这个目标加深合作，包括在整个南亚建设更稳定、和平的关系。

Finally, as I did yesterday in Shanghai, I spoke to President Hu about America’s bedrock beliefs that all men and women possess certain fundamental human rights.We do not believe these principles are unique to America, but rather they are universal rights and that they should be available to all peoples, to all ethnic and religious minorities.And our two countries agreed to continue to move this discussion forward in a human rights dialogue that is scheduled for early next year.最后，如同我昨天在上海时一样，我向胡锦涛主席谈了美国的基本信念，即人人都有某些最基本的人权。我们不认为这些原则是美国特有的，它们是普遍的权利。各国人民，各个少数民族和宗教少数派都应该享有。我们两国同意在定于明年年初举行的人权对话中继续推动这种讨论。

As President Hu indicated, the United States respects the sovereignty and territorial integrity of China.And once again, we have reaffirmed our strong commitment to a one-China policy.正如胡锦涛主席指出的那样，美国尊重中国的主权和领土完整。我们再次重申对一个中国政策的承诺。

We did note that while we recognize that Tibet is part of the People’s Republic of China, the United States supports the early resumption of dialogue between the Chinese government and representatives of the Dalai Lama to resolve any concerns and differences that the two sides may have.We also applauded the steps that the People’s Republic of China and Taiwan have already taken to relax tensions and build ties across the Taiwan Strait.我们的确指出，尽管我们承认西藏是中华人民共和国的一部分，但美国支持中国政府与**喇嘛的代表早日恢复对话，以解决双方存在的担忧和分歧。我们也对中华人民共和国和台湾已经采取的缓和紧张局势和建立海峡两岸联系的步骤表示赞赏。

Our own policy, based on the three U.S.-China communiqués and the Taiwan Relations Act, supports the further development of these ties--ties that are in the interest of both sides, as well as the broader region and the United States.基于美中三个联合公报和《台湾关系法》，我们自身的政策是支持继续发展这些关系——这些关系有利于双方，有利于更广大的地区和美国。

These are just some of the issues that President Hu and I discussed.But we also know that the relationship between our two nations goes far beyond any single issue.In this young century, the jobs we do, the prosperity we build, the environment we protect, the security that we seek, all these things are shared.这些只是胡锦涛主席和我讨论的问题的一部分。但是，我们也知道，我们两国的关系远远超出任何单一问题。置身这个世纪的初期，我们所做的工作，所创建的繁荣，所保护的环境，所寻求的安全——所有这一切都是共同分享的。

Given that interconnection, I do not believe that one country’s success must come at the expense of another.That’s why the United States welcomes China as a strong, prosperous and successful member of the community of nations.鉴于这种相互关联，我不认为一个国家的成功必须以牺牲另一个国家的利益为代价。这就是为什么美国欢迎中国成为国际社会中一个强大、繁荣和成功的成员。

Our relationship going forward will not be without disagreement or difficulty.But because of our cooperation, both the United States and China are more prosperous and secure.We’ve seen what’s possible when we build upon our mutual interests and engage on the basis of equality and mutual respect.And I very much look forward to deepening that engagement and understanding during this trip and in the months and years to come.我们未来的关系不会没有分歧和困难。但由于我们的合作，美国和中国都更繁荣、更安全。我们已经看到，当我们在互利的基础上发展、在平等和相互尊重的基础上往来时能够取得什么样的成果。我非常期待在这次访问中和在未来的岁月里，加深这种交往和理解。

[马朝旭]:中美两国元首共同会见记者结束。谢谢大家。

MODERATOR: This concludes the meeting with the news media.Thank you.

第二篇：中美两国元首共同记者会胡锦涛主席致辞

中美两国元首共同记者会胡锦涛主席致辞

[马朝旭]: 中美两国元首共同会见记者，现在开始。首先请胡锦涛主席致辞。MODERATOR: The meeting between the two heads of state, China and United States with the press media now begins.Now we would like to give the floor first to the Chinese President.[胡锦涛]: 尊敬的奥巴马总统，各位记者朋友，女士们，先生们：

很高兴和各位记者朋友在这里见面，首先我代表中国政府和人民，对奥巴马总统来华进行国事访问表示热烈欢迎。Your Excellency President Obama, And dear friends from the news media, ladies and gentlemen: I'm very happy to meet our friends from the press and media.To begin with, I would like to extend on behalf of the Chinese government and people a warm welcome to President Obama on his state visit.Welcome to China.刚才我和奥巴马总统进行了很好的会谈，双方就发展中美双边关系和共同关心的重大国际和地区问题，深入交换了意见，达成了广泛共识，会谈是坦诚的、建设性的、富有成果的。

Just now I had very good talks with President Obama.The two sides had in-depth exchange of views on how to further bilateral relationship and on major regional and international issues of shared interest.The two sides reached broad, important agreement.The talks were candid, constructive, and very fruitful.我和奥巴马总统都认为，当前国际形势继续发生复杂深刻变化，全球性的挑战不断增多，世界各国相互依存日益紧密。为此，需要加强国际合作。

Both President Obama and I believe that at present the international situation continues to undergo profound and complex changes.There are growing global challenges, and countries in today’s world have become more and more interdependent.In this context, it is necessary to step up international cooperation.在新的形势下，中美两国在事关人类和平与发展的一系列重大问题上，有着广泛的共同利益和广阔的发展空间。

Against this new backdrop, China and United States share extensive common interests and broad prospect for cooperation on a series of major issue important to mankind’s peace and stability and development.我和奥巴马总统都积极评价美国新一届政府就职以来中美关系的发展，一致同意坚持从战略的高度和长远的角度出发，加强对话、交流、合作，共同努力建设21世界积极合作全面的中美关系。并将采取切实行动，稳固建立应对共同挑战的中美关系，为促进世界的和平稳定和繁荣而努力。

President Obama and I spoke positively of the progress made in the China-U.S.relationship since the new American administration took office.We both agreed to continue to adopt a strategic and long-term perspective, increase the dialogue exchanges and cooperation, and work together to build a positive, cooperative, and comprehensive China-U.S.relationship for the 21st century.We also agreed to take concrete actions to steadily grow a partnership between the two countries to meet our common challenges in order to contribute to world peace, stability, and prosperity.我们都认为，保持两国高层的密切交往，和其他各个级别的对话蹉商，对中美关系的发展至关重要，双方同意两国领导人继续通过互访、通话、通信，或在多边场合会晤等方式，保持密切沟通。

We both believe and maintain close high-level exchanges and dialogue and consultations at various other levels are essential to the growth of China relations.The two sides agreed that the leaders of the two countries will continue to stay in close touch through mutual visits, telephone conversations, correspondence, and meetings of multilateral fora.双方高度评价中美战略与经济对话机制在加强两国互信合作方面发挥的重要作用，双方将继续落实好今年七月首轮对话的成果，并且尽早着手为明年夏天在北京举行的第二轮对话作准备。

The two sides spoke positively of the important role of the China-U.S.strategic and economic dialogues mechanism in enhancing the mutual trust and cooperation between the two countries.The two sides will continue to follow through on the outcomes of the first round of the China-U.S.strategic and economic dialogues held in July this year.And we will start as early as possible to make preparations for the second round to be held in summer next year in Beijing.我们就当前的国际经济、金融形势交换了看法，认为当前的世界经济出现了企稳回升的积极迹象，但复苏的基础并不牢固。双方重申将继续在宏观经济政策领域加强对话和合作，坚持通过平等协商妥善处理两国经贸摩擦问题，共同维护双边经贸关系健康稳定发展。

We also exchanged views on the current international economic and financial situation, and we believed that now the world economy has shown some positive signs of stabilizing and recovery.But the foundation for this recovery is not firmly established.The two sides reiterated that they will continue to increase dialogue and cooperation in macroeconomic and financial policies, and they will continue to have consultations on an equal footing to properly resolve and address the economic and trade frictions in a joint effort to uphold the sound and steady growth of their business ties and trade.我向奥巴马总统强调，当前形势下，我们两国应该有更加坚决的态度，反对和抵制各种形式的保护主义。

I stressed to President Obama that under the current circumstances, our two countries need to oppose and reject protectionism in all its manifestations in an even stronger stand.我们都积极评价二十国集团领导人峰会在应对国际金融危机方面发挥的重要作用，我们两国将与其他成员一道，全面落实这次峰会的成果，不断加强二十国集团在全球经济治理当中的作用，推进国际金融体系改革，完善全球经济治理，以防范和应对未来的危机。

We both positively spoke of the important role of the G20 summit in tackling the international financial crisis.Our two countries will work with other members and comprehensively follow through on the outcomes of the various summits.We will also work together to continuously strengthen the role of G20 in global economic governance, advance the reform of international financial system, and improve the global economic governance to ward off and guard against future financial or economic crisis.我们同意扩大两国在气侯变化、能源、环境领域的合作，在共同但有区别的原则和各自能力的基础上，同有关各方一道推动哥本哈根大会取得积极成果。We agreed to expand our cooperation on climate change, energy, and environment.We also agreed to act on the basis of the principle of the common but differentiated responsibilities and consistent with our respective capabilities to work with other parties concerned to help produce positive outcomes out of the Copenhagen conference.中美两国的有关部门已签署中美关于加强气候变化、能源和环境合作的谅解备忘备等合作文件，并且正式启动了中美清洁能源联合研究中心。

The complementing departments of China and the United States have already signed a number of cooperation agreements, including the MOU to enhanced cooperation on climate change, energy and environment.The two sides have also officially launched the initiative of developing a China-U.S.clean energy research center.我和奥巴马总统都表示，愿意在双向互利的基础上，深化两国反恐、执法、科技、航天、民用航空、高速铁路基础设施建设、农业、卫生等领域的合作，并继续推动两军关系取得更大的进展。

Both President Obama and I said that we are willing to act on the basis of mutual benefit and reciprocity to deepen our cooperation on counterterrorism, law enforcement, science, technology, outer space, civil aviation, and engage in cooperation in space exploration, high-speed railway infrastructure, in agriculture, health, and other fields.And we also agreed to work together to continue to promote even greater progress in the growth of military-to-military ties.我们还就扩大两国的人文交流，特别是青年交流进行了探讨，支持双方建立人文交流机制，并且加强互派留学生合作。

We also discussed how to expand people-to-people and cultural exchanges between the two countries, particularly the youth exchanges.And we are supportive of the establishment of a people-to-people and cultural exchange mechanism, and we agreed to strengthen our cooperation in exchanging students.我们都表示坚持通过对话协商，解决朝鲜半岛核问题。符合包括中美两国在内的有关各方的共同利益，双方将同有关各方一道，坚持半岛无核化和六方会谈进程，维护东北亚和平稳定。Both of us said that we will remain committed to dialogue and consultations in resolving the Korean Peninsula nuclear issue.And such approach serves the common interests of China, the United States, and other parties concerned.The two sides will work with other parties concerned to continue the denuclearization process of the Korean Peninsula and six-party talks process in a bid to uphold the peace and stability in Northeast Asia.我们强调维护国际核不扩散体系，通过对话谈判，妥善解决伊朗核问题，对维护中东和海湾地区的稳定十分重要。

We both stressed that to uphold the international nuclear nonproliferation regime and to appropriately resolve the Iraniannuclear issue through dialogue and negotiations is very important to stability in the Middle East and in the Gulf region.在会谈中，我向奥巴马总统强调，中美两国国情不同，双方存在一些分歧是正常的，关键是要尊重和照顾双方的核心利益和重大关切。

During the talks, I underlined to President Obama that given our differences in national conditions, it is only normal that our two sides may disagree on some issues.What is important is to respect and accommodate each other's core interests and major concerns.中方赞赏奥巴马总统多次重申坚持一个中国政策，遵守中美三个联合公报，在台湾等问题上尊重中国主权和领土完整。

President Obama on various occasions has reiterated that the U.S.side adheres to the one-China policy, abides by the three Sino-U.S.joint communiqués, and respects China’s sovereignty and the territorial integrity when it comes to the Taiwan question and other matters.The Chinese side appreciates his statements.双方重申互相尊重主权和领导完整这一根本原则，双方均不支持任何势力破坏这一原则的任何活动。我们将继续本着平等、相互尊重、互不干涉内政的精神，就人权和宗教等问题开展对话交流，以增进了解，减少分歧，扩大共识。

The two sides reaffirmed the fundamental principle of respecting each other’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.Neither side supports any attempts by any force to undermine this principle.We will continue to act in the spirit of equality, mutual respect, and a noninterference in each other’s internal affairs, and engage in dialogue and exchanges on such issues as human rights and religion in order to enhance understanding, reduce differences, and broaden common ground.女士们，先生们： Ladies and gentlemen, 中美关系十分重要，维护和促进中美关系是双方的共同责任。中方愿意同美方一道，推动中美关系持续健康稳定发展，以更好地造福两国和世界人民。The China-U.S.relationship is very important.To preserve and promote the growth of this relationship is a shared responsibility for both China and the United States.The Chinese side is willing to work with the U.S.side to ensure the sustained, sound, and steady growth of this relationship to the greater benefits of peoples of our two countries and people throughout the world.谢谢大家！Thank you all!

第三篇：奥巴马总统在曼德拉追悼会上的致辞

Remarks by President Obama at Memorial Service for Former South African President Nelson Mandela奥巴马总统在悼念南非前总统纳尔逊∙曼德拉的仪式上的讲话

First National Bank Stadium, Johannesburg, South Africa

第一国家银行体育场，南非，约翰内斯堡

December 10, 2013

2013年12月10日

Thank you.(Applause.)Thank you so much.Thank you.To Graça Machel and the Mandela family;to President Zuma and members of the government;to heads of states and government, past and present;

distinguished guests--it is a singular honor to be with you today, to celebrate a life like no other.To the people of South Africa--(applause)--people of every race and walk of life--the world thanks you for sharing Nelson Mandela with us.His struggle was your struggle.His triumph was your triumph.Your dignity and your hope found expression in his life.And your freedom, your democracy is his cherished legacy.谢谢诸位。(掌声)多谢诸位。谢谢你们。格拉萨·马谢尔及曼德拉的家人;祖马(Zuma)总统和政府成员;各国历任和现任国家元首和政府首脑;尊敬的来宾们—今天与你们在一起，赞颂这独异于人的一生，是一种至高无上的荣耀。南非人民——(掌声)——各族裔和各行各业的人民——全世界感谢你们与我们共同受惠于纳尔逊∙曼德拉。他进行的斗争就是你们的斗争。他的胜利就是你们的胜利。你们的尊严和你们的希望在他的一生中得到体现。你们的自由、你们的民主，是他宝贵的遗产。

It is hard to eulogize any man--to capture in words not just the facts and the dates that make a life, but the essential truth of a person--their private joys and sorrows;the quiet moments and unique qualities that illuminate someone’s soul.How much harder to do so for a giant of history, who moved a nation toward justice, and in the process moved billions around the world.概括任何人的生死荣辱都很难做到言至意达，——借助于言词，不仅罗列一生的事实和日期，而且需要揭示一个人的内心深处——他们个人的欢乐和悲伤;静默的时刻和照亮某些人灵魂的独特品质。对于名垂史册的一位伟人，曾率领一个国家追求正义，并且在这个过程中感动了全世界亿万民众，历数这一生的尊荣尤为不易。

Born during World War I, far from the corridors of power, a boy raised herding cattle and tutored by the elders of his Thembu tribe, Madiba would emerge as the last great liberator of the 20th century.Like Gandhi, he would lead a resistance movement--a movement that at its start had little prospect for success.Like Dr.King, he would give potent voice to the claims of the oppressed and the moral necessity of racial justice.He would endure a brutal imprisonment that began in the time of Kennedy and Khrushchev, and reached the final days of the Cold War.Emerging from prison, without the force of arms, he would--like Abraham Lincoln--hold his country together when it threatened to break apart.And like America’s Founding Fathers, he would erect a constitutional order to preserve freedom for future generations--a commitment to democracy and rule of law ratified not only by his election, but by his willingness to step down from power after only one term.“马迪巴”出生在第一次世界大战期间，远离权豪势要，儿时靠放牛维生，接受腾布部落长者的教诲，日后成为20世纪最后一位伟大的解放者。他与甘地一样，后来成为抵抗运动的领导人—最初很少有成功希望的一场运动。他与金博士一样，使被压迫者的诉求得到强有力的声张，为种族正义的道义使命发出了强大的声音。他经历了残酷的监禁，在肯尼迪和赫鲁晓夫时期开始身陷囹圄，直到冷战结束之时。出狱后，他在没有军队的情况下——与亚伯拉罕•林肯一样，在国家即将分裂之际维护了国家的完整。他与美国的开国元勋一样，为了保持今后世世代代的自由建立了宪法秩序——坚持民主和法治，不仅因为他的当选，而且也因为他愿意在完成一个任期后放弃权力。

Given the sweep of his life, the scope of his accomplishments, the adoration that he so rightly earned, it’s tempting I think to remember Nelson Mandela as an icon, smiling and serene, detached from the tawdry affairs of lesser men.But Madiba himself strongly resisted such a lifeless portrait.(Applause.)Instead, Madiba insisted on sharing with us his doubts and his fears;his miscalculations along with his victories.“I am not a saint,” he said, “unless you think of a saint as a sinner who keeps on trying.”

纵观他的一生，回顾他取得的一切成就、他当之无愧获得的敬仰，我认为可以说纳尔逊∙曼德拉是一位彪炳青史的人物，人们应该缅怀千载。他笑容可掬，面目安详，具有常人不具备的超尘拔俗的气质。然而，“马迪巴”本人强烈抵制这种刻板的形象。(掌声)相反，“马迪巴”坚持要我们知道他的疑惑和恐惧，了解他在走向胜利的道路上做出了哪些错误的估计。“我不是圣人，”他如是说，“除非你们认为圣人也会犯错，也需要不断尝试。”

It was precisely because he could admit to imperfection--because he could be so full of good humor, even mischief, despite the heavy burdens he carried--that we loved him so.He was not a bust made of marble;he was a man of flesh and blood--a son and a husband, a father and a friend.And that’s why we learned so much from him, and that’s why we can learn from him still.For nothing he achieved was inevitable.In the arc of his life, we see a man who earned his place in history through struggle and shrewdness, and persistence and faith.He tells us what is possible not just in the pages of history books, but in our own lives as well.正是因为他承认不完美——因为他为人如此和蔼可亲，甚至还有些诙谐，尽管他经历了诸多的重负--我们才如此喜欢他。他不是大理石制作的雕像;他是有血有肉的人——儿子和丈夫，父亲和朋友。正因为如此，我们从他身上学到了很多东西。正因为如此，我们始终可以向他学习。他取得的成就没有一样是必然的结果。我们从他的一生中看到，他奋勇斗争，殚智竭虑，坚韧不拔，坚持信念，在历史上赢得了自己的地位。他告诫我们什么是可能做到的，不仅可以载入史册，而且在我们自己的生活中得到体现。

Mandela showed us the power of action;of taking risks on behalf of our ideals.Perhaps Madiba was right that he inherited, “a proud rebelliousness, a stubborn sense of fairness” from his father.And we know he shared with millions of black and colored South Africans the anger born of, “a thousand slights, a thousand indignities, a thousand unremembered moments…a desire to fight the system that imprisoned my people,” he said.曼德拉向我们展示了行动的力量;为了我们的理想甘冒风险的力量。“马迪巴”也许是对的，他从他父亲那里继承了“一种骄傲不羁的叛逆精神，一种顽强执着的公平信念”。我们还知道，他同千百万南非黑人和有色人种共同怀有一种愤怒，他曾说，这种愤怒产生于“一千次轻蔑、一千次屈辱、一千个已被遗忘的时刻……一种与禁锢我的人民的制度抗争的渴望”。

But like other early giants of the ANC--the Sisulus and Tambos--Madiba disciplined his anger and

channeled his desire to fight into organization, and platforms, and strategies for action, so men and women could stand up for their God-given dignity.Moreover, he accepted the consequences of his actions, knowing that

standing up to powerful interests and injustice carries a price.“I have fought against white domination and I have fought against black domination.I’ve cherished the ideal of a democratic and free society in which all persons live together in harmony and [with] equal opportunities.It is an ideal which I hope to live for and to achieve.But if needs be, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die.”(Applause.)

同非洲人国民大会的其他早期伟人一样——如希苏拉斯和塔姆伯斯——“马迪巴”以自律来约束自己的愤怒，将自己的渴望融入为采取行动而确立组织、平台和战略的斗争中，以使男女民众能够奋起捍卫他们的天赐尊严。此外，他还接受了他所采取的行动带来的后果，知道与权势和不公抗争是要付出代价的。“我曾为反对白人统治而斗争，也曾为反对黑人统治而斗争。我一直珍藏着一个民主、自由的社会的理想，让所有人都生活在一个和谐共处、机会均等的社会中。我希望为这个理想而生并将其付诸实现。但是，如果需要，我也愿为这样一个理想献出生命。”(掌声)

第四篇：中美两国元首在胡主席访美白宫欢迎仪式的致辞

在正式欢迎胡锦涛主席仪式上的致辞美利坚合众国总统巴拉克·奥巴马

年月日，华盛顿大家早上好！胡主席、中国代表团成员们，我谨代表米歇尔和我自己欢迎你们来到白宫，并代表美国人民欢迎你们来到美国。

’年前，在像今天这样的一个月的日子里，另一位美国总统站在这里欢迎另一位中国领导人，标志着美国和中华人民共和国关系正常化的历史时刻。在那一天，邓小平谈到了我们两国间巨大的合作机会。回首年那个冬日，现在一切都非常清晰。在那之前的年是我们两国关系的僵持时期。在那之后的年是交流与理解不断发展的时期。胡主席的此次访问能够让我们为未来年奠定基础。

’正当有人怀疑美中两国间的合作是否有利的时候展开的此次访问，也提供了展示一个简单事实的机会。我们与对方的成功利益攸关。在一个相互依存的世界、在全球经济中，如果我们齐心协力，各国——包括我国——将会更加繁荣、更加安全。

’

’美国欢迎中国崛起成为国际大家庭中的一个强大、繁荣、成功的成员。事实上，中国的成功已经既给你们的人民，也给我国人民带来了经济好处；我们在一系列问题上的合作帮助增进了亚太地区和世界的稳定。我们也很清楚：历史表明，当各国的权利和责任、各国人民的权利——包括每个人的普世权利——得到维护时，社会就更和谐、国家就更繁荣、世界就更公正。

第五篇：中美两国元首在白宫国宴上的致辞原文[范文]

中美两国元首在白宫国宴上的致辞(奥巴马部分)Good evening, everybody.Please have a seat.On behalf of Michelle and myself, welcome to the White House.And thank you for joining us as we host President Hu and the Chinese delegation, and as we pay tribute to the bonds between two great nations and two proud peoples.There are too many distinguished guests to mention all of you tonight.But I do want to acknowledge a few who have championed relations between our nations: First of all, President Jimmy Carter and his wonderful wife Rosalynn Carter are here.As well as President Bill Clinton and my outstanding Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton.President Hu, we have met today in a spirit of mutual respect: the United States--the oldest democracy in the world, and China--one of the oldest civilizations in the world.And while it’s easy to focus on our differences of culture and perspective, let us never forget the values that our people share: A reverence for family;the belief that, with education and hard work and with sacrifice, the future is what we make it;and most of all, the desire to give our children a better life.Let’s also never forget that throughout our history our people have worked together for mutual progress.We’ve traded together for more than 200 years.We stood together in the Second World War.Chinese immigrants and Chinese Americans have helped to build America, including many who join us here tonight.The Chinese and American people work together and create new opportunities together every single day.Mr.President, today we’ve shown that our governments can work together as well, for our mutual benefit.And that includes this bit of news-— under a new agreement, our National Zoo will continue to dazzle children and visitors with the beloved giant pandas.I'm told that there is a Chinese proverb that says: If you want one year of prosperity, then grow grain.If you want 10 years of prosperity, then grow trees.But if you want 100 years of prosperity, then you grow people.And so I propose a toast--to our people, the citizens of the People’s Republic of China and the United States of America.May they grow together in friendship.May they prosper together in peace.And may they realize their dream of the future for themselves, for their children, and for their grandchildren.Ganbei.中美两国元首在白宫国宴上的致辞(胡锦涛部分)尊敬的奥巴马总统和夫人，各位来宾，女士们、先生们，朋友们，晚上好！应奥巴马总统的邀请，我很高兴再次来到美国进行国事访问。一踏上这片美丽的土地，我们就受到美国政府和人民的盛情款待。今天晚上，奥巴马总统又为我们举行欢迎宴会，并发表了热情洋溢的讲话。我谨代表我的同事们，并以我个人的名义，向奥巴马总统和夫人，向在座的美国朋友们，表示衷心的感谢，并通过你们向热情友好的美国人民转达中国人民的良好祝愿，向所有关心和支持中美关系发展的美国各界人士致以诚挚的问候。

我这次应奥巴马总统的邀请访问美国，目的是增进互信，加强友谊，深化合作，推动二十一世纪积极、合作、全面的中美关系继续向前发展。近年来，特别是奥巴马总统就职两年来，在双方的共同努力下，中美关系得到长足发展，两国广泛领域交流合作不断扩大，双方在重大的国际和地区问题上保持密切沟通和协调，为促进亚太地区乃至世界的和平、稳定、繁荣发挥了积极作用。

在当前形势下，中美两国拥有的共同利益比以往任何时候都要广泛，担负的共同责任比以往任何时候都要重大，美丽的共同挑战比以往任何时候都要严峻，因而保持中美关系长期健康稳定发展也就比以往任何时候都要重要，这是中美两国面临的客观现实，应该成为我们的共识。

今天上午，我同奥巴马总统举行会谈，就中美关系及共同关心的国际和地区问题深入交换意见，达成重要共识，我们一致同意两国应该密切高层和各个级别的交往，加强对话和沟通，增进战略互信，深化各个领域的交流合作，密切在国际和地区问题上的沟通和协调，尊重对方主权领土完整和发展利益，妥善处理摩擦和分歧，致力于共同努力建设相互尊重、互利共赢的中美合作伙伴关系。

回顾往昔，中美建交三十二年来走过的不平凡历程表明，两国的共同利益远远大于分歧，互利合作始终是两国关系主流，这坚定了我们推动中美关系发展的信心。展望未来，中美两国都面临着保持经济平稳发展和实现经济转型的艰巨任务，都需要应对经济全球化带来的各种挑战，这增强了我们加强合作的需要和意愿。

我们要以更加坚定的信念，更加宽广的视野，更加积极的行动，脚踏实地，锐意进取，充分挖掘两国合作潜力，不断开创中美关系发展新局面。我相信，在双方的共同努力下，中美合作伙伴关系一定能够取得丰硕的成果，更好的造福两国人民，为世界和平与发展的崇高事业做出新的、更大的贡献。

现在我提议，为奥巴马总统和夫人的健康，为在座的各位朋友的健康，为中美两国人民的友谊不断加强，为中美关系不断发展，干杯！
