温家宝2011年在英国皇家学会的演讲

Ladies and Gentlemen,

建设有中国特色的社会主义，是13亿中国人民的庄严选择。中国30多年的变化，得益于改革开放；中国未来的发展，仍然要靠改革开放。改革开放，要贯穿中国现代化建设的始终。倒退没有出路，停滞也没有出路。只有坚定信心、继续前进，中国才能建设成为富强、民主、文明、和谐的社会主义现代化国家，中国人民才能更加普遍和以更高水准过上有尊严的幸福生活。尽管前进的道路上还会有这样那样的艰难险阻，但这一历史进程不可逆转！

To build socialism with distinctive Chinese features is the solemn choice made by the 1.3 billion Chinese people. China owes the success of its transformation in the past 30-odd years to reform and opening-up. And China must deepen reform and opening-up to sustain its future development. Reform and opening-up will be carried out in the entire process of China's modernization endeavor. To stall or reverse course is not an option for China. We must move on with confidence. Only by doing so can China turn itself into a prosperous, democratic, culturally advanced, modern and harmonious socialist country, and can the Chinese people enjoy a happy life with dignity in a more extensive way and at a higher level. Whatever difficulties and obstacles may lie ahead, they cannot block this historical process!

女士们、先生们：
Ladies and Gentlemen,

英国是世界上最早实现工业化的发达国家，在高科技、高等教育、金融服务、医疗卫生、低碳经济等领域，都具有中国所需要的技术和管理经验。中国广阔的市场、丰富的人力资源和巨大的发展潜力，可以为英国经济发展提供有力的支持。中国政府积极推进大型企业、研究型大学和科研机构同英国的合作，鼓励双方高端人才的交流和合作研究。

The United Kingdom is a developed country and the first to achieve industrialization. Its advanced technologies and managerial expertise in research, higher education, financial services, public health and medical services and its development of low-carbon economy can well meet China's demand. On China's part, its vast market, abundant human resources and huge development potential can help boost UK's economic growth. The Chinese government encourages large Chinese companies, research-oriented universities and research institutions to increase cooperation with their British counterparts. It also encourages more exchange of top-level talents and joint research between our two countries.

英国伟大思想家培根说过，“智者创造机会，而不是等待机会”。富有思想和智慧的中英两国人民，一定能创造更多的机会，推动两国合作迈上新的台阶！我对中英关系的明天充满信心，更充满期待！

Francis Bacon said, "A wise man will make more opportunities than he finds." The Chinese and British people, with vision and creativity, can certainly create more opportunities and lift our cooperation to a new level. I have every confidence in and great expectation for the future of China-UK relations.

谢谢大家！

Thank you.
