篇章练习

In no other country is the public as aware of or asinterested in what the WTO is and what it means fortheir future. In China, countless numbers of booksand articles have been published, and numeroustelevision and radio programs aired, on thissubject.1. Just type in the words "China and theWTO" on any internet search engine and you will findhundreds of websites devoted to this topic. In theWTO, China has shown a desire to play a significant role in shaping the future direction of theorganization and to ensure success in the Doha Round. And we need China to play this role, andsupport the efforts to put the Round back on track, by helping to build a bridge that will servethe ambitions of both the developing and developed world. //

Failure to advance the Doha Round would certainly be a lost opportunity for China, as well asfor other countries, to benefit from the economic growth that further liberalization cangenerate2. The absence of new progress in the Doha Round would further damage confidencein our already fragile global economy3.Despite China's strong economic performance, manyof you, will of course, have felt the impact of the global economic slow-down. Globalinvestment flows in 2002 fell for the third consecutive year to US$651 billion dollars—half thepeak reached in 2000. Trade flows recovered last year after a decline in 2001 – but they arestill well below levels achieved in 2000. //

Let me briefly now touch upon some of the elements of the Doha Development Agenda WorkProgram which are critical to advancing the Round. Indeed, the challenges China faceshighlight some of the pressing issues confronting the WTO as it tries to live up to its missionof facilitating global prosperity. Notwithstanding the major achievements made in pastrounds, there remain serious impediments to trade in agriculture, in industrial goods and inservices. //

Tariff peaks and developed country tariffs which escalate with the level of processing are ofparticular concern for developing countries. But so are high tariffs between developingcountries. Barriers to trade tend to be concentrated in agriculture, food products, textiles andclothing and other manufactured goods in which developing countries have comparativeadvantage. In agriculture, these impediments are also severely compounded by the fact thatdeveloping countries also have to compete in markets where huge subsidies abound – to thetune of 1 billion dollars a day in OECD countries4. //

Delivery on the Doha mandate on agriculture should help China to address its concern to raiserural incomes in order to avoid excessive migration to urban centers.

女士们、先生们，

任何一个国家的公众对WTO本身和WTO对他们将来影响的认识和兴趣，都没有中国的公众这么高。关于WTO的主题，中国有数不胜数的书籍、文章、电视和广播节目。只要在因特网的搜索引擎中键入"中国和WTO"，你会找到数百个网站，包含这样的信息。在WTO，中国非常愿意发挥重要的作用，规划WTO未来的发展方向，保证多哈回合的成功。我们需要中国发挥这样的作用，我们支持中国为使谈判重新纳入轨道而做出努力，我们希望中国能够发挥桥梁作用，帮助发展中国家和发达国家实现自己的梦想。//

如果不能够推进多哈回合，对中国，对其他的发展中国家来说，这必将意味着它们都失去了一 次从经济增长和自由化中受益的机会。在新的多哈发展回合当中，如果没有一些新的进展，它可能会导致人们 对已经非常脆弱的全球经济失去信心。尽管现在中国的经济运行情况非常不错，但是你们肯定也都感觉到了全球经济放缓的影响。从2000年开始，连续三年全球的资金流量都在下滑，

到2002年，已下降到6510亿美元——只相当于2000年最高值的一半，虽然与2001年相比，去年贸易流量有所复苏，但是远远低于2000年的水平。//

下面，我简单地介绍推进多哈发展议程当中的几个关键问题。无可置疑，中国面临的挑战也正是WTO急需解决的问题，因为WTO现在正在致力于完成其促进全球繁荣的使命。尽管在过去的一些谈判回合当中 取得了重要的成就，但是在农业、工业产品和服务行业方面仍然存在着很多的贸易障碍。//发展中国家特别关 注高峰关税和发达国家关税升级的问题。事实上发展中国家之间的高关税也是一个非常重要的问题。比如说， 在农产品、食物、纺织品、服装以及其他制成品的贸易方面，发展中国家具有较强的优势，但是高关税却成为 贸易的主要障碍。特别是在农业这个领域，由于市场上有着大量的补贴，OECD国家现在的补贴每天达十亿美 元，因而补贴成为了发展中国家贸易方面的又一个主要障碍。//

在农业领域中，多哈谈判应当帮助中国提高农村收入，避免过多的农村人口转移到城市。


口译讲评Comments on Interpretation

1. "In China, countless numbers of books and articles have been published, and numeroustelevision and radio programs aired, on this subject."英语中的被动语态，在汉语中经常译为主动语态。在这句话中，我们可将"中国"转化为主语，选用"有"作谓语动词，这个词可以同时包含"publish"和"air"的含义。所以该句可译 为"关于WTO的主题，中国有数不胜数的书籍、文章、电视和广播节目。"
