As his image became ubiquitous on business news channels and media outlets across America.美国各大商业新闻频道和媒体都挂满他的照片

篇3:《英文报阅读举隅》的介绍与研究

报刊英语所涉及的体裁很广。翻开英文报刊, 我们看到的是各种具有不同特点和风格的体裁:消息报道、特写文章、新闻评论、小品文、天气预报、广告等。毫无疑问, 报刊本身所具有的特质就决定了其刊登的新闻类体裁占据着举足轻重的地位。新闻的简单定义是:新闻是对受众所关注的新近发生的事实的报道, 因此最具有传播效应、也最能给人留下深刻印象是新闻最大的特质。提升英语交际能力的方法有很多, 显然阅读英语报刊新闻就是其中一个及时的、能够引起人们极大兴趣的、而且又能快速掌握地道英语的快捷方式。鉴于上述原因, 目前国内很多大专院校英语专业都纷纷开设英语报刊文章选读课程, 通过这种有效的方式激发学生的兴趣, 拓宽认知英语语言的途径, 加深对英语世界文化的认同, 提高学生的英语学习效率。

学习和研究报刊英语已成为英语学习不可或缺的一个手段, 这在很大程度上是由英语语言本身多层次、多角度、纷繁复杂的特质所决定的。报刊英语在越来越信息化、传媒化的社会中所占据的重要性不言而喻, 了解和掌握报刊英语的特质, 是完善英语学习的一个途径, 是构成英语教学的一个重要层面。报刊英语研究作为外语专业中的一门学科, 在近代中国, 它是何时被纳入到学者研究视野中的呢?这是一个非常有趣、也是非常有意义的话题。

1839年11月4日, 在澳门正式创办的马礼逊教育会学校将英语教学引入中国本土, 成为中国近代英语教学之滥觞, 因此追溯学者对中国近代报刊英语之研究也应该从这一时间开始。翻检由上海书店出版社出版、周振鹤先生所编著的《晚清营业书目》 (2005年第1版) , 并未有相关著作问世;翻阅由北京图书馆编纂的《民国时期总书目——语言文字分册》之《英语》部分 (195页—259页) , 可以发现有关探讨英语报刊阅读的著作仅有四本, 分别是《英文报阅读举隅》 (1933年9月初版) 、《英文新闻例释》 (1946年7月一版) 、《英文报纸读法》 (1946年8月初版) 和《怎样读英文报》 (1947年7月初版) ; (1) 又根据刊登在《教育杂志》 (1909年—1933年) 、《申报》 (1872年—1933年) 和《中华教育界》 (1912年—1933年) 上的售书广告, 可以断定陈希周先生于1933年所编著的《英文报阅读举隅》理应是中国近代第一部探讨报刊英语的著作。有幸在旧书市场购得此本书籍, 拜读过后, 收获颇多。这本书籍对研究中国报刊英语学术史本身具有重要的学理价值和史料价值, 但至今未发现有任何的论文和著作提及此本书籍, 故在此有必要向大家做以详细的介绍。

《英文报阅读举隅》之概括性介绍

从这本书前的例言中可以对作者编写此书的目的和编写风格窥见一斑:“1.本书可供学习阅看英文报纸者自修之用, 并可採作英文课本。读者读完此书, 对于阅看英文报纸之困难, 可解决大半。2.本书内容, 大半搜集最近一年来各种英文报纸之记事, 几二百条, 英汉对照, 每条并附有[注]及[参考]。读者于依照[注]及译文研究原文之后, 尤须注意[参考]材料之运用。3.全书分短简、政治、外交、军事、经济等十四栏, 乃为便于学习之目的, 但英文报纸并未有此种严格分类, 读者请勿误会。4.每栏之末, 附以该类记事之常用单语及短句 (Phase) 。读者阅看英文报纸遇有难解之名词及词句时, 则可依其性质应属于何栏者, 即于该栏之末检阅之——陈希周谨启一九三二年五月廿二日。” (2)

《英文报阅读举隅》所收编的英语新闻全部来自于当时在国内、国际上具有影响力的主流权威的英语报刊。英语新闻材料分别来自于中国的The China Press、The Shanghai Times、North China Daily和Peking-Tientsin Times;日本的The Japan Advertiser、The Japan Times and Mail、The Japan Chronicle和The Osaka Mainichi;英国的Daily Mail和Times;美国的The New York World。 (3) 显然, 由于《英文报刊阅读举隅》所列举的英语新闻均来自于具有国际影响力, 并享有良好信誉的英语报刊, 这就不仅有力地保证了所收录新闻的时效性、真实性、客观性、重要性及价值性, 而且也保证了其所使用的新闻英语语言的标准性、规范性、真实性及地道性, 上述的这些因素为一般读者掌握报刊英语知识、提高报刊英语阅读技巧提供了必要的前提条件。

《英文报阅读举隅》收录英语新闻所涉及的主题情况

此书涵括的英文报阅读材料按照体裁划分为:新闻、公告和广告。所收集的英文报刊新闻涉及民国社会和亚洲、欧洲、美洲国家的各个领域, 主题极为广泛, 信息量广博, 按新闻的报道内容分类, 共涉及13大类别的英语新闻, 下面将按照分类列出其涉及的重要英语新闻主题。

第1类:“短简:人事及一般消息”类新闻。共计13条, 涉及中国的有4条, 涉及日本的有5条, 剩下的消息涉及朝鲜、南斯拉夫及其他欧美国家。

第2类:政治类新闻。共计17条, 其中涉及中国的有6条, 涉及日本的有2条, 涉及英国的有3条, 涉及德国的有2条, 涉及苏俄的有2条, 涉及印度的有1条, 涉及西班牙的有1条。

第3类:外交类新闻。共计14条, 主要有下列主题, “中国任命驻日新公使、重光葵受命为驻华日使、有田氏受命为公使 (日本) 、中国致国联声明书、蒋介石劝言忍耐、日奥修约、国际联盟下次会议议程……”

第4类:军事类新闻。共计15条, 主要有下列主题, “炮舰检阅 (中国) 、张学良力主无抵抗主义、‘剿共’军克服三市镇、湖南预防省防、二十架军用飞机到沪——水陆两用机两架系为航空交通需用、日本增设空军团、新驱逐舰 (日本) ……”

第5类:经济、商业类新闻。共计13条, 涉及中国的多达7条, 涉及日本的1条, 涉及美国的3条, 涉及德国的1条, 涉及苏俄的2条。

随后的新闻种类分别是:运输、交通类, 犯罪、警察、法庭类, 劳动、社会运动类, 集会类, 教育、学术类, 健康、体育类, 火警、灾祸类和天灾、气象类。

作者将“公告·广告”划分为最后一类, 第14类, 严格来讲, 这样划分并不科学和严谨, 因为前述的13类都属于新闻类的体裁, 应该将此部分单独列出较为合适。 (4)

综上所述, 作者在书中搜集了200多条的英语新闻, 几乎涵盖了国内、国际社会各个领域最新发展动态。在作者所引用的200多条英语新闻中, 其涉及的新闻主题还有两个显著的特点值得我们关注。其一, 其中涉及政治、外交、军事和经济商业这四类的新闻共计59条, 占据了总数1/4的比例还要多, 而其他共九大类的新闻主题加在一起也不到其总数的3/4, 作者的选材表现出了较强的倾向性。其二, 作者在选择国别新闻时, 在短简、政治、外交、军事和经济商业类新闻中, 对中国和日本发生的重大事件表现出了高度关注。根据前述的第一部分中所介绍的《例言》可知, 作者完稿的日期为1932年5月, 而“本书内容, 大半搜集自最近一年来各种英文报纸之记事”, 我们可以断定, 本书收录的英语新闻的时间跨度应该是从1931年5月到1932年5月。显然在这一阶段内, 中国历史上发生了两个重大事件, 那就是1931年发生在东北的“九·一八”事变和1932年发生在上海的“一·二八”事变。随着这两次事变的发生, 日本全面侵华的进程逐步加快、程度日益加深, 其企图发动全面侵华战争的狼子野心已经暴露无遗, 处于极其凶险环境中的中华民族再次陷入了空前的事关国家生死存亡的危机之中。日军的侵华暴行对国内、国际社会都产生了重大而深刻的影响, 尤其是明显地体现在政治、外交、军事和经济领域;中华民族为抵抗强敌的入侵, 众志成城、团结一致, 已经为抗击日寇做好了全面的准备。在此重大历史背景的前提下, 国内媒体和民众自然都把关注的焦点集中到了与中国和日本密切相关的在政治、外交、军事和经济领域发生的这些重要事件的上面, 并对此保持了高度的警惕性。

综上所述, 作者选材的特点明显地凸显了报刊新闻所具有的重要性、显著性和接近性的特质。所谓重要性, 指的是新闻事件与当前社会生活和大家的切实利益有着密切关系, 势必会引起人们的关心, 能够影响到许多人;显著性指新闻中的人物、地点或事件越是著名、越是突出, 就越能吸引读者, 新闻价值就越大, 人们的注意力自然而然地集中到它们的身上;接近性指新闻与读者在地理上或心理上的接近。凡是具有接近性的事实, 受众关心, 新闻价值就大, 因为邻近的新闻不仅可以使人产生心灵上的触动, 而且通常可以立即影响人们的行动, 所以, 新闻价值是与新闻和接受者在地理上的接近程度成正比的, 如果新闻所反映的内容相同, 则距离越近, 新闻价值就越高;除了地理上的接近以外, 心理上的接近也能增加接受者对新闻的兴趣。很显然, 作者所精心选择的新闻很好地把握了新闻所具有的重要特殊属性, 这样就容易引起读者的兴趣, 激发他们的阅读, 加深他们对新闻的理解, 最终提高阅读效率。还有一点需要指出的是, 作者这种选材的倾向性有利于引导读者关注国家民族命运, 加强民众的凝聚力, 增强爱国主义精神, 培养读者紧跟时代发展的良好的英语阅读习惯。

作者将公告和广告划分为英语报刊阅读材料的第14大类, 虽然没有对阅读材料像其他类别的英语新闻那样按照严格的程序进行讲解, 也没有归纳和总结常见的广告类行业术语, 但是, 显而易见, 作者已经意识到了公告和广告是一种不同于新闻的独特的语体, 它应该有着自己的更加特殊的语言表达特色, 应该在此书中给读者以必要的提醒, 引起他们的关注和重视。从这一点来看, 这是难能可贵的。

《英文报阅读举隅》讲解英语新闻的程序及其特点的介绍与分析

现在以外交类英语新闻中的《中国致国联声明书》 (CHI-NA’S PETITION TO LEAGUE COUNCIL) 为例, 以更好了解此书讲解每一条英语新闻的特点与风格。由于篇幅所限, 英文原文在此不再一一赘述。

其讲解具体程序依次如下所示 (每条新闻都是如此) :第一步是英语新闻的汉语翻译, “[国民社九月廿三南京电]日内瓦中国代表团总代表施肇基博士, 向国联秘书长德鲁蒙氏提出关于满洲危局之声明书, 其内容如下:为奉本国政府命令, 请贵秘书长注意下列事件, 并请根据盟约第十一条, 立即召集国联理事会, 以便采取最有效的方法, 保障国际和平事。查中国代表团曾于本月十九日将此种情况之发生, 及中国不负任何过咎之事实, 通知理事会。此后屡接本国政府来电, 告以情势越发严重, 日本之正式军队, 已无故向中国军队及沈阳开始轰击。炮击兵工厂营房, 焚毁火药库, 并将长春、宽城子一带中国军队缴械, 其后又占据沈阳、安东及其他各地, 所有公共机关及交通机关, 均经强迫占据。对于此种强暴行为, 中国军队及人民, 因在中国政府命令下采取无抵抗, 且并禁止可使形势越发严重之行为。中国为国联会员之一, 认为对于此种形势之发生, 应要求根据盟约第十一条之规定, 采取有效之动作。故余奉中国政府命令, 请理事会按照盟约第十一条所授予之权, 采取最有效方法, 阻止此种情势之扩大, 以免危及国际和平, 同时恢复战前之性质及数目。中国政府对于理事会之建议及大会之决议, 决定遵守无异议。”

与讲究生动形象、含蓄蕴藉和追求各种艺术效果的文学语言相比, 英语报刊新闻报道不失为一种具有鲜明语言形式和文体特点的语言资料。报刊的这一社会职能决定了报刊英语许多独特的文体特点。这种独特的文体特点往往不为一般读者所熟悉, 成为他们理解英语新闻内容的主要障碍之一, 因此给出较为标准的汉语翻译是十分有必要的;还有, 新闻英语的汉译有自己独特的标准和方法。一般而言, 新闻翻译的首要标准是准确、完整, 与其他文体类资料的翻译相比, 要更加忠实于原文;另一条标准是应该符合汉语新闻的风格, 因为读者毕竟大多是中国人。读者通过对比英语原文和汉语译文, 可以揣摩、发现和总结新闻英语汉译的翻译技巧和方法。

第二步是“[注]”, 即注释。为了加深读者的理解和记忆, 作者列出关键词汇, 再次给出精确的汉语翻译。作者关注的对象主要是:有关外交行业的术语, 表示地点的专有名词, 复杂的介词短语, 复杂的动词短语, 派生词和复合词等, 这些在一般的英语类词典中很难查询到, 作者关注的对象正好反映出了英语新闻所具有的较为独特的语言表达特点和风格。

第三步是“[参考]”。共包括6个项目的讲解, 第 (1) 项中, 作者从新闻标题中的关键行业术语“联盟”着手, 引出它的全称“国际联盟” (the League of Nations) , 再通过联想记忆法列举出与国联有着紧密关系的“国联大会” (the Assembly of the League of Nations) 、“国联理事会” (the Council of the League of Nations) 和“国联盟约” (the Covenant of the League of Nations) , 这种方式可以加强读者的记忆力, 有效地扩大读者的行业术语词汇量。在 (2) 、 (5) 和 (3) 项中, 作者列举了在文中需要重点学习的动词短语和介词短语, 这两种短语正好是新闻英语表达惯用的遣词造句的重要形式之一, 通过丰富的例句进行详细的讲解, 总结其用法和特点, 有利于读者的理解和掌握。在第 (4) 项中, 作者对表示时间的缩略语给予了解释, 并由“本月” (inst.) 自然而然地举出了“下月” (prox.) 和“前月” (ult.) 的缩略语及其全称。缩略语是现代英语报刊中主要的构词手段之一, 它不仅具有造词简练、使用简便的特点, 且具有很强的生命力。作者已经意识到了缩略语是报刊英语中的一个重要语言现象, 并给予了关注, 而缩略语往往不被读者所理解, 因此对此做出解释是完全有必要的。在第 (6) 项中, 作者特意讲解了政治术语authority的单复数意义不尽相同, 这种现象在英语报刊中经常出现, 为了加深读者对这一重要语法现象的理解, 又刻意举出若干例子进行说明。 (5)

此书讲解新闻英语的风格还有一大亮点, 就是在每一类新闻英语讲解完毕之后, 作者会对在当时的每一类英文报刊新闻中出现频率较高的专业词汇和短语做以归类和总结。现在以政治类英语新闻为例进行说明。“政治记事之单语与短句”共分为五大类, 第1类为“一般”单语与短语, 主要涉及与政府、政治体制、政治主义相关的词汇, 达35个之多。第2类为“政党”单语与短语, 其词汇量共计11个。第3类为“选举”单语与短语, 其词汇量总共有35个。第4类为“议会”单语与短语, 其词汇量竟然多达66个。第5类为“中国国民政府各院部”单语与短语, 其数量是16个。总之, 上述的政治类英语术语涉及面广泛, 举例丰富, 翻译精确, 就是对于当今阅读英语报刊的读者而言, 仍具有相当高的参考价值。新闻报道涉及各行各业, 各行各业都有一些惯用词语, 约定俗成。由于近代传播技术的逐渐提高, 原来意义上的“行话”又常常会在社会的其他领域流行, 从而加快了语言的更新和发展。而新闻作为反映变化中的世界的“晴雨表”, 自然会最敏感地反映这些变化。这些行业用语的语义变异与语义增值往往最先出现在反应敏感的报刊上, 成为新的语言资源, 比如上述第3类中提到的“is defeated”这一短语, 这本来是一个军事、体育用语, 意思为“战败、被击败”, 后被引入到政治领域中, 意思为“落选”。作者几乎在书中的每一大类新闻英语讲解结束后, 都要在其总结的专业类术语中对上面所举例探讨的特殊“行话”给予特别的关注和解释, 这充分说明了作者已经意识到了这些“行话”来源的特殊性, 这是阅读英语报刊的难点, 如果不进行解释, 读者很难通过其他途径查询, 这势必会阻碍阅读进程。

语言资源的扩大还有一个极其重要的途径, 那就是, 近代以来世界上发生的巨大的变化, 特别是政治、科技、经济、教育等领域的快速发展, 也引起了英语词汇表达的更新、变迁和发展, 从而新生了大量行业用语或表达, 它们也常常最先出现在反应敏感的报刊上, 首先值得一提的是作者不惜笔墨详细地分类列举了各国的议会机构名称。在近代政治民主化的进程中, 东西方国家、西方国家之间的历史和国情也不尽相同, 因此构成国会的成员和国会机构表达的内涵都不尽相同, 这些差异最先被反应敏捷的报刊新闻所捕捉到, 虽然其汉语的翻译大致相同, 但其英语表达方式却有较大差异, 那么读者自然对这一现象倍感困惑, 因此对其进行分类和整理是非常有必要的。

其次, 在第1类中提到的“party out of power (反对党、在野党) , by-election (补缺选举) ”和“electorate (选举人〈全体〉) ”, 等等, 它们都是在近代政治体制民主化进程中出现的新词语, 其构词也很有特点, 前者是合成词, 后者是派生词, 这也是新闻英语词汇构成的重要特征。

还有, “五院”制度在世界政治制度史上是一个首创, 是中国所独有的, 它有着独特的内涵, 因此在第5类中所列举的“五院”院长的表达有着独特的新闻英语特点, 分别是:President of Executive Yuan (行政院院长) , President of Control Yuan (监察院院长) , President of Legislative Yuan (立法院院长) , President of Examination Yuan (考试院院长) , President of Judiciary Yuan (司法院院长) 。“英语复合词+汉语拼音”表示独特的中国新闻英语, 这也彰显了新闻英语词汇的一个重要特征。 (6)

经过以上两种途径产生的新术语在相当长的时段内都很难进入普通的英语类词典, 尤其是在中国出版的词典, 原因是词典收录的词语必须是经过长期实践检验而被一般公众理解和接受了的, 因此, 某些词汇往往无处可查, 显而易见, 作者进行这样的专门归类和总结对于读者了解和掌握英语新闻词汇、提高阅读效率是十分有必要的, 也是大有裨益的。

结语

《英文报阅读举隅》的出版距今已有近80个年头, 如果用现在的学术视野去审视这部中国近代探讨报刊英语的开山之作, 尽管它看起来那么不成熟、那么不完善, 甚至可以用“稚嫩”去形容和描述, 不足点有很多, 例如, 这部著作所收编的英语报刊阅读材料仅仅涉及了最基本的消息报道和广告等, 至于其他类型的体裁, 诸如特写文章、新闻评论、小品文等等, 均没有被提及;作者主要从英语词汇的层面讲解报刊英语的特点, 而且讲解的方式主要是通过举例和翻译来完成的, 缺乏对报刊英语特点进行系统性、规律性、理论性的归纳和总结;对于报刊英语的语法特征讲解较少, 修辞手段特点几乎没有涉及, 对于能够彰显英语报刊新闻特色的标题语言的讲解则完全没有涉及, 但是我们评价任何一件历史事件、历史人物, 根据已掌握的文献资料, 都应该穿越时空的隧道, 使它尽可能返回它所赖以存在的历史语境, 从其独特的历史语境中出发, 对此历史图景做一解读、阐释和评价, 而不应该以现在的学术标准来衡量其是非得失, 这才是符合历史唯物主义的观点, 只有这样, 我们才能对已发生的历史图景作出较为客观、较为公允的评判。从这样的立场和角度来看, 这部中国近代探究报刊英语的处女之作, 它在一些层面所做出的尝试在学理上具有开拓性的意义, 这些至今仍被后辈的学术著作所传承。任何一门学科都要经历从萌芽, 到发展, 再到完善成熟的阶段, 至于上述提到的诸多不足和缺点正好说明了国人对于报刊英语的研究还处于萌芽状态, 研究者当然会从最直观的新闻材料的类别、选材的倾向性和新闻英语词汇等层面入手。具有重要意义的是, 这部著作的问世标志着我国外语界已经开始涉足这块值得开发的处女地。任何一门学科都有自己的学科史, 只有探寻它的过去, 才能理解和把握它的现在, 更好地推测它的未来。

这部著作的学术价值并不仅仅局限于其自身的学科建设, 书中援引的新闻实例全部来自于中西方主流权威媒体, 选材广泛, 题材多样, 语言表达简练, 遣词造句规范, 文笔流畅, 颇具代表性, 这就为后人研究民国时期报刊英语的特点提供了翔实可靠的第一手资料, 无异于为我们创建了一个真实的英语报刊新闻语料库, 这个特殊的语料库对在特殊的时段内, 开展个案研究极具学术价值;而且此书收编的新闻报道所涉及的时间范围都在1931年5月至1932年5月期间, 这一阶段在中华民国的历史上占据着非同寻常的地位。除了原始档案资料以外, 中外主流权威媒体所记载的新闻报道可以作为有力的佐证, 共同见证这段难忘的历史岁月。

摘要:经考证, 开明书店于1933年出版的由陈希周所编著的《英文报阅读举隅》是中国近代第一部探讨报刊英语的著作, 本文通过对其所收录英语新闻涉及的主题、其讲解英语新闻程序及特点的介绍与分析, 论证了这部著作不仅对探讨报刊英语学术史本身具有重要的学理价值和史料价值, 而且也为研究民国时期 (20世纪30年代) 的新闻英语和中华民国史提供了翔实可靠的文献资料。

篇4:春节英文小介绍

Introducing Spring Festival

The Spring Festival is the most important festival for the Chinese people and is when all family members get together, just like Christmas in the West. It originated[起源] in the Shang Dynasty from the people’s sacrifices[祭品] to gods and ancestors[祖先] at the end of an old year and the beginning of a new one.

During the last ten days before Spring Festival, store owners are busy as everybody goes out to purchase[购买] necessities for the New Year. Materials not only include edible[食用的] oil, rice, poultry[家禽], fish and meat, but also fruit, candies and all kinds of nuts. What’s more, various decorations, new clothes and shoes for the children as well as gifts for the elderly, friends and relatives are all on the list of purchasing.

Before the New Year comes, people completely clean the inside and outside of their homes. Then they begin decorating[装饰] their clean rooms with an atmosphere[气氛] of joy and festivity[欢庆]. All the door panels will be pasted with Spring Festival couplets[对联]. Also, pictures of the gods of doors and wealth will be posted on front doors to ward off[避开] evil spirits and welcome peace and abundance[充裕]. Red paper-cuttings can be seen on window glass.

According to custom, each family will stay up to count down for the New Year on the eve of the Spring Festival. Lighting firecrackers[爆竹] was once the most typical custom during the Spring Festival. People thought the banging and popping could help drive away evil spirits. Children will get money as a New Year’s gift, wrapped[包裹] up in red packets. A series of activities such as lion dancing, dragon lantern[灯笼] dancing, lantern festivals and temple fairs will be held for days. The Spring Festival then comes to an end when the Lantern Festival is over.

春节是我国民间最重要的传统节日,就像西方的圣诞节一样,这是一家团聚的时刻。春节起源于殷商时期辞旧迎新之际的祭神祭祖活动。

在春节前最后十天,大小商铺生意兴隆,因为人们都忙于置年货。年货包括油、米、鸡、鸭、鱼、肉,还有糖饵果品及各式各样的果仁。除此之外,人们还要准备各种各样的装饰物,为小孩子添置新衣新鞋,以及准备过年时走亲访友、孝敬长辈的礼品。

春节前,人们会把屋子里里外外都打扫得干干净净。然后,他们会把家装饰得充满节日气氛—门的两侧贴上春联,大门前还要贴上门神和财神的画像以避邪迎福,在窗户玻璃上贴上红色剪纸。

一、如何评价杭州

Hangzhou is lucky enough to be one of the first group of cities open to the world。

杭州有幸能够成为(中国)首批向世界开放的城市。

Because Nixon and Mao Zedong signed the Agreement。这源于尼克松和毛泽东推动签署的中美《联合公报》。So they made Hangzhou open to the world。是他们的努力让杭州向世界敞开了大门。

1972,when Mao Zedong and President Nixon had decided to make China and USA agree to work together to be the bright futre。

我认为全球对这次G20峰会抱有很高期望。尤其是对当下的世界经济而言。A lot people don‘t like globalization。许多人不认同全球化。

And I personally believe globalization is a great thing for the world。而我认为全球化对世界而言是一件伟大的事情。

The only thing is that: how we can improve globalization to enable more small business,more young people to get involved。

唯一的问题是要如何提升全球化来让更多中小企业和更多年轻人参与其中。What if we can use a new mechanism,a new technology to enable 1 billion,or 2 billion,or 3 billion people to do trade。

如果我们用新机制和新技术让10亿人、20亿人、30亿人,甚至更多的人参与全球贸易,那会怎样?

I think the EWTP should be sponsored and enforced by the business,and supported by the government。

我认为EWTP应该由企业发起和主导,同时由政府来提供支持。

If we can build up a platform that can enable small business and young people to do a free trade in a open,a fair trade globally。因此,如果我们可以打造出一个平台,让中小企业、年轻人能够在全球进行自由、开放和公平的贸易。

This‘s gonna be very foundamental for the next 20 or 30 years of World Economy and for the century。

这会让全球经济在未来20年或30年,甚至在本世纪发生根本性的变化。And I think we are very proud to get involved for this G20 and B20 for our ideas。

我们很高兴能够参加此次G20和B20峰会并发出这样的倡议。

It is an idea and we‘ll continue to work,to move forward by this great event。

三、阿里巴巴为何把总部设在杭州

People keep on asking me why Alibaba is not in Beijing,why not in Shanghai。(But)in Hangzhou。

人们总是在问我,阿里巴巴为什么不把总部放在北京或者上海,而是在杭州。Not because it is a city that is my hometown。是因为这座城市不仅是我的家乡。

So I think we got great talents。我们有优秀的人才。

We got good environment。我们有良好的环境。

We are a pretty small city with only close to 9 million people。杭州规模不大,只有近900万人口。

But Hangzhou is so powerful,so influential to China Economy,to China Culture。

但杭州却对中国经济与中国文化有着巨大的影响力。

Because in Song Dynasty,1000 years ago,we were the capital of China。早在1000年前的宋朝,杭州曾是中国的首都。

And at that time we were the most splendid and prosperous city in China。在那个时候,杭州就是中国最辉煌、最辉煌的城市。

Hangzhou,today,has become the driving force of China New Economy because of e-commerce,because of Alibaba。

四、对G20峰会的寄语

篇6:马云_斯坦福大学演讲英文字幕

Everybody was very sensitive when I said “,I am gonna spend one year here” ,and the I just come here I am tired ,too tired in the past sixteen year,I start my business ,when I started 1994 internet ,I got crazy about the internet,gave up my job in the teaching, I called myself like blind man riding on the back of a blind tiger, jumping around,and still KIKI ,still surviving,and then join the govement organization for sixteen months, not successful ,started alibaba 1999.and we built up the alibaba,we are luck enough,we have the taobao ,we have the alipay we have ali cloud computing,and the so many things,after 12years,I say:”I need some time to rest” , especially,this year,so difficult for me , I did not expect.Per 12 years was china call the “本命年“.This is our 12 year for alibaba.At the beginning of the year,we have the,you know ,moving for alibaba b2b CEO,because the customer cheating thing,and then we have the alipay about the VIE.I still don‟t know what the VIE is,”right”, and then we have the ,taobao separate into 4 parts,so many things ,It really make me fell tired,and I said:”well, why not give up 1 year ,because next year is my personal “本命年”,which could be much more difficult ,so this year is very tough and difficult,I believe,next year,it‟s gonna be tough ,more difficult, more “听不清“,So I got ready for that, and I need think,need rest,so in order to for any another 3,4year hard work,because this 3year,it‟s not my job,if something wrong,criticize the president of taobao,CEO of the alibaba and alicloud,it‟s their fault,3 year later ,something wrong,my fault.so I come here and I will spend most of time in United States,and then thingking relaxing.2 days ago,I picked up my golf,just relax ,nothing about ,the things people think about.So we are very luck company,and there is no chance that we survive, I don‟t have any sort of the background ,richfather,strong uncle, and the,I remember 1999,I came to Silicon Valley ,loking for venture capital.I talked to lots of venture capital,and I remember a few days ,I drop by Menlo park,I was rejected by so many venture capital, when talked about alibaba startup,they looked at the stranger,”what” ,”what are you talking about?I went back to china,with nothing,no money, nobody invested me,but I‟m full of confident,I saw America dream.At that time ,1999,I walked on the high “没听清”,every evening full of cars in the park of company,Sunday full of car,people work day and night,This is something ,I believe it‟s gonna happen in china,without getting any venture capital,but I think ,I went back china with America dream and we started the business there,and after 12 years,you know, a lot of things happen,we built up the B2B,nobody believed the B2B will work ,because the B2B at that time with aliba ,I don‟t know still there.“ariba.com”,”broadvision”,”commerce one” this is very famous B2B company.People said :”how can you do B2B in china.Because B2B in USA focus on big company ,they focus on buyer,and we believe that three is no big company in china,and I don‟t see, in the short term, china will have lots of big company,because big company is only SOE,SOE ,they do not the ecommerce, they need govement policy.so we focus on small business,we believe china,the small business ,the private sector are the future.so we focus on that, and the B2B in usa ,they focus.They want to help the buyer save the cost ,save the time.we believe:”don‟t don‟t teach the SME,don‟t teach the small business how to save the cost.because know much better than you do.You shound help them how to make money.so we focus on helping small business,we focus on helping them make money ,sell things abroad.Very difficult to do business,at that time,but after 12 years,we got more than 58 millions small business around the world using our service.that model is not very successful,compare to “tencent “”baidu”,.we did not make that much money,like online gaming,but we can sleep well in the evening, because the money we made not online gaming, the money we made is helping small business survive, get business opportunity which I fell very proud of that, and today , as always,I never fell proud of how much money we made,I fell proud of how much impact we can help others,especially small business,before the history of internet,no company can help over 50 millions SME,today we are trying.andf I fell proud of that this is the first company,and people said :”jack,if you make alibaba successful,that means :”you are pulling a million ton sheep on the top of the Himalayas and I said :”yes,we will carry that thing down” and we did.The second company call taobao ,and everybody said :”oh my god ,you are competing with ebay.I said :”why not,”, china need ecommerce site and building up china market take effort ,take time and take great “没听清“ really want to build up something, so at that time people said :”there is no chance “ well!, if you never try ,how do you know that there is no chance.So we try.And I said :” if ebay is the sharp in the ocean, we are crocodile in the yangzi river.Never fight in the ocean, let‟s fight in the Yangzi river.it was difficult, it was lots of fun,and we survive.they got 90%market share at that time, today for C2C,we own 90%market share.And luck ,just luck,thre are lots of can be disscuss in the future.Today ,people always write about the successful story about alibaba.And I really don‟t think we are so smart.we made so many mistake.we were so stupid at that time.so I think someday the book I personnally really want to write about is alibaba 1001 mistakes.That‟s the things people should remember ,should learn.If you want to learn “how the other people succeed,it‟svery difficult.thre arelots of luck things at there.But if you want to learn “ how people fail “,you will benefit a lot,and I always like to read those book talking about “how people fail”,because,if you look into it any company theiy fail,the reason why they fail almost the same,and that really matters, so taobao succeed,and then we have the alipay,because everybody said:”china oh ,no credit system, banking is terrible, logistics is terrible.How can you do ecommerce.I never tell, just like today I come here without PPT without my business,I not come here sell you business ,sell my business.Because I don‟t stock to sell to you guys.But I think because china is not good at logistics,not good at credit system,not goog at banking system, that‟s why we need entrepreneurship, that‟s why we go ,we should go, build them up.So I believe ,if there is no, you build it up,later that‟s become the standard of china and I believe china need that.I remember ,6 years ago,I came to the states,I told the USA audience.I believe 5 years later, china will have more internet users than USA.people said “No” , I said :”well ,you have 300 millions population,china 1.3 billions ,right!If you guys have 400 millions internet users,without any people die, keep on having baby , it take 50 years , we need 5 years.it‟s just time issue, right!.let‟s wait and see, today we have more users ,today people say :”why your buy capability is low, let‟s see about 5 years later.5 year later,today,people only spend 200 RMB per month,5 years later,this guy will spend 2000.and we have patients, we are young,you know, my people only 26 average age, they are young.let‟s wait for the future.So ,alipay,was just like very ,at that time people said :”it‟s stupid “没听清“ service.John wants to buy things from Stevens, John just not want to “没听清”the money.Stevens don‟t want to send the poducts.So we open account, “没听清“,ifyou happy ,” “没听清“the money ,not happy,return poduct,return money.People said :” how stupid the model is”, well!We don‟t care whether stupid or not stupid.we care whether the customer wanted or not,whether really meet the need of customer, if it‟s stupid, but after 7years ,we have more than 600 millions users, registered users in china using that.So stupid thing , if you improve it every day,it „s gonna be very smart.And we believe that,and today , it „s good ,and it‟s growing, just like paypal,we are bigger than paypal right now , on transaction volume.And the last , most important is alicloud computing,and not like the other company ,they talk about cloud computing,they want to sell you the,hardware, software.We have nothing to sell you.we just want to compute our own datas.Because the datas we have from the SME,because the datas we have from consumer of taobao,datas from alipay.We believe in the future the world is going to data process in the world.How can we share the datas with others in a great way.Right!That‟s the business about, it‟s not that good yet, but it‟s very profitable,the whole com pany look health,we are very appreciate, we are the company from “没听清“,there is no chances we can win ,now we survive.I think we always ask our own question:” why we are still working so hard.I talked to my colleague one day ,and he said :” I never know that in my life, I can do that much”, second” I never know that the thing I doing that meaningful to the society, third ,I never know that life is that “没听清”hard。We worked day and night,even now.I guess so thiner ,so stranger.I understand life is not easy.We fell proud because we are changing china.It „s not how much money you made.10 years ago,when I walked on the street, people thank me because alibaba B2B helped them get orders across ocean.Today ,when I walk on the steet ,the young people said:”thank you very much,my wife and I opened a small shop on taobao,we made the surviving, we had grear incoming.I know ,this is meaningful thing.We made the credit means money.Years ago , if you have a great record,or credit trust,you are not rich.Today if you have a good record on taobao, you get rich, because people do business with those people who have good record.We are teaching consumer to be smart.People said :‟”jack ,I bought something so cheap from taobao ,is that a fake product.Yes we do.Fake product at everywhere.We spent most of effort in china, 50% people on taobao, they focus on checking the internet property issue, but there is bottle of wine, the cost is only 9 dollars, the people buy on the street is 300dollars,why is that? the channel, the advertisement, the TV show, why consumer should pay that much.So we cut that, and we made things change,so tell the consumer ,say :”this T-shirt , you buy on taobao,maybe 15 dollars, you buy on the shop,150 dollars.Not because taobao sell too cheap,because the shop sell too expensive.we should teach the consumer to be smart.And the third.very important, we saw so many factory in china ,especially in Canton,they are not company,they are not even a factory,they just OEM, they just manufacture,they don‟t know who ar selling for them,they don‟t know who are their customer,so anything come ,they all in trouble.So we just tell that manufacturing, you have to contact consumer youself, you have to sell youself, serve youself, then this real business,otherwise, you just a workshop.We are changing that, and I feel proud, we are honor, it‟s not about money.We believe ,if you have 1 million dollars , you are the richman,when you have 10 million dollars,you are in trouble,you worry about the inflation,you start to invest, you get into trouble, when you have 1 billion, that „s not you money,it‟s the society‟s trust,the shareholder ,the people believe you can spend this money smart than the government,you can spend the money better than others, so they give you the trust, how can you do this trust? How can you treat ,you know ,creat this trusr well.And I think we facing this challenge.And the product of alibaba, it‟s not the service,it‟s the people,employee,the colleague,the average age of our company is 26 years old,we are facing so many challenge,I never realize that on of the key government official
