4. 我們高興地看到，全國以及各行業的總的情況是穩定的，沒有出現大的問題，從而大大增強了我們的信心。這些領域的改革必須得到中國人民的理解和支持，為他們所接受。這並非易事。we are glad to see that the general situation in the country and in all industries has been stable. no big problems have cropped up, and this has greatly boosted our confidence. these reforms also must nave the chinese people's understanding, support, and acceptance. that is by no means easy.
5. 但是我們並沒有採用激烈的做法，事實上我們的做法是穩妥的。but the measures we introduce are not so drastic. they are actually quite moderate.
6. 我們將今年的目標定在9%至10%。我們不可能做到7%，那樣做會使經濟陷入一種混亂的局面，那樣的波動也會引起社會混亂。our target is 9% to 10% for this year. it is not possible for us to achieve 7% because that would create a disruption to the economy. in addition, that kind of fluctuation would lead to social instability.

8. 認為中美貿易戰只會傷害中國一方那是不正確的。我認為首當其衝的是美國公民，最大的受害者是美國的普通消費者。it is not correct to think that it would be a terrible thing only for china if that should happen. i think that it's the american public-the general american consumer-who would suffer the most.
9. 我認為他根據人均糧食消費400公斤而對中國糧食總需求所做出的統計是正確的。i think his calculation on the total demand for grain in china. which was based on the per-capita grain consumption of 400 kilograms, is correct.
10. 但是，我又不得不指出，布朗先生那些關於2003年中國糧食生產總量以及增長率的數字是完全錯誤的。他的數字是根據21年前，中國糧食總產量2.67億噸這一情況推算出來的。i have to say, however, mr. brown's figure about china's total production capacity by the year 2030, as well as it's growth rate is by no means accurate. the figure that mr. brown used was derived from that of 21 years ago when china's total grain production reached 267 million tons.
11. 我們的估算表明，到2026年是我國糧食消費量的95%的數量將依賴自己的穀物生產，這在國際上算是一個極高的比率。儘管中國人口眾多，但它目前對糧食的進口只占了其消費總量的2%。糧食自給是我國近半個世紀來的一貫政策。基於糧食自給的原則，我們制定了計畫生育、環境保護和糧田保護三項基本國策。此外，中國是個大國，從成本上來考慮，進口糧食只對沿海地區有利。而偏遠地區和內地，因運輸成本太高，從未依賴糧食進口。our estimation shows that by the year 2020 china will be relying on 95 percent of its own grain production to feed the nation, an extremely high rate in the world. despite china's huge population, its net grain import currently accounts for only about two percent of its total consumption. self-sufficiency in grain has been a policy that the country has been following for nearly half a century, as such, three essential national programs-family planning, environmental protection and the preservation of crop-lands---were based on adhering to this principle. in addition, china is a large country and relying on imported grain can only be cost-effective for its coastal areas. the hinterland and inland regions have never depended on imported foods due to the high cost of transportation.
12. 美國前國務卿蒂安、艾奇遜在45年前說過，中國眾多的人口對任何一屆中國政府來說都是一種無法承受的壓力。dean acheson, former us secretary of state, side about 45 years ago that china's huge population was an unbearable pressure for all chinese governments.
13. 統計數字顯示，世界上只有兩個國家能夠承擔12億人口所需糧食的壓力，那就是中國和美國。然而，明顯不同的事，中國僅以美國一半的可耕地生產了同樣數量的糧食，並負擔了近乎美國人口四倍的人民的吃飯問題。statistics show that only two counties in the world, i.e., china and the united states, are capable of supporting a population of 1.2 billion. the marked difference, however, is that china produces the same amount of grain on only half the size of us crop-land but supports a population nearly four times that of the united states.
14. 首先，我們要開闊視野，使我們能更有效率的發展社會主義市場經濟，成為好的經理和政策制定者。其次，我們希望加強外貿體制的改革，使外貿逐漸走向競爭，並使之受到諸如關稅、匯率和利率等法律和經濟手段的制約。first of all, we want to broaden our own mental horizons so as to be more effective in developing a socialist market economy and to become better managers and policy-markers. second, we hope to strengthen reform in our foreign trade system in order to gradually open foreign trade to competition and to get it under both legal and economic control, such as tariff, exchange rates and interest rates.
15. 我們對外經濟合作與貿易往來多頭並進，產品、資本、技術和勞力緊密結合，互相促進。our foreign economic cooperation and trade have been developing in many directions at once, closely combining products, capital, technology and labor, one sector helping to promote the other.
16. 從1994年到2000年，中國進口累計總額將達到10，000億美元。這個數字包括建築和技術改造方面的210個重點工程所需進口的技術和設備。between the year 1994 and the year 2000 china's accumulative total import value will reach us$ 1 trillion. this will include imported technology and equipment for 210 key projects in construction and technological renovation.
