- For these 50 years, the Chinese people have upheld the authority and sanctity of the United Nations and practiced multilateralism, and China's cooperation with the United Nations has deepened steadily.

译文学习
📍注意这个句子的译文,“把...同中国实际结合起来”处理成“在中国背景下运用...”apply ... in the Chinese context.

Friends,
Comrades,
世界潮流,浩浩荡荡,顺之则昌,逆之则亡。过去50年,尽管国际形势跌宕起伏,但在世界各国人民共同努力下,世界总体保持稳定,世界经济快速发展,科技创新日新月异,一大批发展中国家成长壮大,十几亿人口摆脱贫困,几十亿人口不断走向现代化。
The trend of the world, vast and mighty, prospers those who follow it and perishes those who go against it. Over the last 50 years, for all the vicissitudes in the international landscape, the world has remained stable as a whole, thanks to the concerted efforts of people of all countries. The world economy has grown rapidly, and innovation in science and technology has kept breaking new ground. A large number of developing countries have grown stronger, over a billion people have walked out of poverty, and a population of several billion are moving toward modernization.
perish
表示“(因恶劣条件或事故)死亡”,英文解释为“If people or animals perish, they die as a result of very harsh conditions or as the result of an accident.”举个🌰:
Most of the butterflies perish in the first frosts of autumn.
大多数蝴蝶在秋季初霜来临时死亡。
vicissitudes
vicissitudes /vɪˈsɪsɪtjuːdz/ 表示“变迁;人生沉浮;波折”,英文解释为“changes that happen at different times during the life or development of someone or something, especially those that result in conditions being worse”举个🌰:
Losing your job is just one of the vicissitudes of life.
失业只是曲折人生中的一个插曲。
当前,世界百年未有之大变局加速演进,和平发展进步力量不断增长。我们应该顺应历史大势,坚持合作、不搞对抗,坚持开放、不搞封闭,坚持互利共赢、不搞零和博弈,坚决反对一切形式的霸权主义和强权政治,坚决反对一切形式的单边主义和保护主义。
In the world today, changes unseen in a century are accelerating, and the force for peace, development and progress has continued to grow. It falls upon us to follow the prevailing trend of history, and choose cooperation over confrontation, openness over seclusion, and mutual benefit over zero-sum games. We shall be firm in opposing all forms of hegemony and power politics, as well as all forms of unilateralism and protectionism.
prevailing
表示“普遍的;盛行的;流行的”,英文解释为“existing or most common at a particular time”如:the prevailing attitude 普遍的观点,the prevailing culture 主流文化。
🎬电影《美国队长2:冬日战士》(Captain America: The Winter Soldier)中的台词提到:The prevailing theory was that the hijacking was a cover for the acquisition and sale of classified intelligence. 大部分人的看法是劫持事件只是在掩盖机密情报的交易。

——我们应该大力弘扬和平、发展、公平、正义、民主、自由的全人类共同价值,共同为建设一个更加美好的世界提供正确理念指引。和平与发展是我们的共同事业,公平正义是我们的共同理想,民主自由是我们的共同追求。世界是丰富多彩的,多样性是人类文明的魅力所在,更是世界发展的活力和动力之源。
- We should vigorously advocate peace, development, equity, justice, democracy and freedom, which are the common values of humanity, and work together to provide the right guiding philosophy for building a better world. Peace and development are our common cause, equity and justice our common aspiration, and democracy and freedom our common pursuit. The world we live in is diverse and colorful. Diversity makes human civilization what it is, and provides a constant source of vitality and driving force for world development.
译文学习
📍注意这个句子的译文,“和平与发展是我们的共同事业,公平正义是我们的共同理想,民主自由是我们的共同追求。”Peace and development are our common cause, equity and justice our common aspiration, and democracy and freedom our common pursuit. 三个结构一样的并列句构成排比,A, B, and C. 其中B和C后两句直接省略了谓语动词be.
diversity
表示“多样性,多样化”,英文解释为“the fact of many different types of things or people being included in something; a range of different things or people”举个🌰:
Does television adequately reflect the ethnic and cultural diversity of the country?
电视节目能充分反映出这个国家民族和文化的多样性吗?
“非尽百家之美,不能成一人之奇。”文明没有高下、优劣之分,只有特色、地域之别,只有在交流中才能融合,在融合中才能进步。一个国家走的道路行不行,关键要看是否符合本国国情,是否顺应时代发展潮流,能否带来经济发展、社会进步、民生改善、社会稳定,能否得到人民支持和拥护,能否为人类进步事业作出贡献。
As a Chinese saying goes, "Without achieving the good of one hundred various schools, the uniqueness of one individual cannot be achieved." No civilization in the world is superior to others; every civilization is special and unique to its own region. Civilizations can achieve harmony only through communication, and can make progress only through harmonization. Whether a country's path of development works is judged, first and foremost, by whether it fits the country's conditions; whether it follows the development trend of the times; whether it brings about economic growth, social advancement, better livelihoods and social stability; whether it has the people's endorsement and support; and whether it contributes to the progressive cause of humanity.
endorse/endorsement
endorsement 名词,endorse 动词,1)表示“(公开)赞同,支持,认可”,英文解释为“to say publicly that you support a person, statement or course of action”举个🌰:
I wholeheartedly endorse his remarks.
我真诚地赞同他的话。
2)表示“(在广告中)宣传,代言(某一产品)”,英文解释为“to say in an advertisement that you use and like a particular product so that other people will want to buy it”;
3)表示“(在支票背面)签名,背书”,英文解释为“to write your name on the back of a cheque so that it can be paid into a bank account”;
🎬电影《侏罗纪公园》(Jurassic Park)中的台词提到:After careful consideration, I've decided not to endorse your park. 仔细考虑以后 我决定不为你的公园背书。
⚠️这里补充一下,看到上面的「背书」你可能疑惑了,除了在金融上的含义,现在往往被用于政治领域。
例如,新华网2020年4月份一则新闻标题就为「奥巴马“背书”拜登」讲的就是奥巴马发声力挺拜登。
——我们应该携手推动构建人类命运共同体,共同建设持久和平、普遍安全、共同繁荣、开放包容、清洁美丽的世界。人类是一个整体,地球是一个家园。任何人、任何国家都无法独善其身。人类应该和衷共济、和合共生,朝着构建人类命运共同体方向不断迈进,共同创造更加美好未来。推动构建人类命运共同体,不是以一种制度代替另一种制度,不是以一种文明代替另一种文明,而是不同社会制度、不同意识形态、不同历史文化、不同发展水平的国家在国际事务中利益共生、权利共享、责任共担,形成共建美好世界的最大公约数。
- We should jointly promote the building of a community with a shared future for mankind, and work together to build an open, inclusive, clean and beautiful world that enjoys lasting peace, universal security and common prosperity. The human race is an integral community and Earth is our common homeland. No person or country can thrive in isolation. Humanity should overcome difficulties in solidarity and pursue common development in harmony. We should keep moving toward a community with a shared future for mankind, and jointly create a better future. To build a community with a shared future for mankind is not to replace one system or civilization with another. Instead, it is about countries with different social systems, ideologies, histories, cultures and levels of development coming together for shared interests, shared rights and shared responsibilities in global affairs, and creating the greatest synergy for building a better world.
synergy
synergy /ˈsɪnədʒɪ/表示“协同作用,协同增效作用“,英文解释为“the extra energy, power, success, etc. that is achieved by two or more people or companies working together, instead of on their own”。
——我们应该坚持互利共赢,共同推动经济社会发展更好造福人民。中国古人说:“为治之本,务在于安民;安民之本,在于足用。”推动发展、安居乐业是各国人民共同愿望。为了人民而发展,发展才有意义;依靠人民而发展,发展才有动力。世界各国应该坚持以人民为中心,努力实现更高质量、更有效率、更加公平、更可持续、更为安全的发展。
- We should stay committed to mutual benefit and win-win results, and work together to promote economic and social development for the greater benefit of our people. As ancient Chinese observed, "The essence of governance is livelihood, and the essence of livelihood is adequacy." Development and happy lives are the common aspirations of people in all countries. Development is meaningful only when it is for the people's interest, and can sustain only when it is motivated by the people. Countries should put their people front and center, and strive to realize development with a higher level of quality, efficiency, equity, sustainability and security. (From: LearnAndRecord)
要破解发展不平衡不充分问题,提高发展的平衡性、协调性、包容性。要增强人民发展能力,形成人人参与、人人享有的发展环境,创造发展成果更多更公平惠及每一个国家每一个人的发展局面。不久前,我在第七十六届联合国大会上提出全球发展倡议,希望各国共同努力,克服新冠肺炎疫情对全球发展的冲击,加快落实2030年可持续发展议程,构建全球发展共同体。
It is important to resolve the problem of unbalanced and inadequate development, and make development more balanced, coordinated and inclusive. It is also important to strengthen the people's capacity for development, foster a development environment where everyone takes part and has a share, and create a development paradigm where its outcome benefits every person in every country more directly and fairly. Not long ago, at the 76th Session of the UN General Assembly, I proposed a Global Development Initiative, with the hope that countries will work together to overcome impacts of COVID-19 on global development, accelerate implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, and build a global community of development with a shared future.
paradigm
paradigm /ˈpærəˌdaɪm/ 表示“典范;范例;样式”,英文解释为“a model of something, or a very clear and typical example of something”如:a paradigm for students to copy 供学生效法的榜样。
📍全球发展共同体 a global community of development with a shared future
📍人类命运共同体 a community with a shared future for mankind
——我们应该加强合作,共同应对人类面临的各种挑战和全球性问题。地区争端和恐怖主义、气候变化、网络安全、生物安全等全球性问题正摆在国际社会面前,只有形成更加包容的全球治理、更加有效的多边机制、更加积极的区域合作,才能有效加以应对。气候变化是大自然对人类敲响的警钟。世界各国应该采取实际行动为自然守住安全边界,鼓励绿色复苏、绿色生产、绿色消费,推动形成文明健康生活方式,形成人与自然和谐共生的格局,让良好生态环境成为可持续发展的不竭源头。
- We should step up cooperation, and work together to address the various challenges and global issues facing humanity. The international community is confronted by regional disputes as well as global issues such as terrorism, climate change, cybersecurity and biosecurity. Only with more inclusive global governance, more effective multilateral mechanisms and more active regional cooperation, can these issues be addressed effectively. Climate change is Nature's alarm bell to humanity. Countries need to take concrete actions to protect Mother Nature. We need to encourage green recovery, green production and green consumption, promote a civilized and healthy way of life, foster harmony between man and Nature, and let a sound ecology and environment be the inexhaustible source of sustainable development.
confront
1)表示“面临(问题、任务、困难等)”,英文解释为“If you are confronted with a problem, task, or difficulty, you have to deal with it.”举个🌰:
She was confronted with severe money problems.

我们在学习如何正视死亡。
Mother Nature
表示“大自然;自然界”,英文解释为“Mother Nature is sometimes used to refer to nature, especially when it is being considered as a force that affects human beings.”
——我们应该坚决维护联合国权威和地位,共同践行真正的多边主义。推动构建人类命运共同体,需要一个强有力的联合国,需要改革和建设全球治理体系。世界各国应该维护以联合国为核心的国际体系、以国际法为基础的国际秩序、以联合国宪章宗旨和原则为基础的国际关系基本准则。
- We should resolutely uphold the authority and standing of the United Nations, and work together to practice true multilateralism. Building a community with a shared future for mankind requires a strong United Nations and reform and development of the global governance system. Countries should uphold the international system with the United Nations at its core, the international order underpinned by international law and the basic norms of international relations based on the purposes and principles of the UN Charter.
standing
上文“维护联合国权威和地位”用的是uphold the authority and sanctity of the United Nations,此处用standing 替换了sanctity;standing作名词,表示“声誉,名声;级别;地位”,英文解释为“reputation, rank, or position in an area of activity, system, or organization”。
underpin
表示“加强,巩固,构成(…的基础等)”,英文解释为“to support or form the basis of an argument, a claim, etc.”举个🌰:
The report is underpinned by extensive research.
这份报告以广泛的研究为基础。
国际规则只能由联合国193个会员国共同制定,不能由个别国家和国家集团来决定。国际规则应该由联合国193个会员国共同遵守,没有也不应该有例外。对联合国,世界各国都应该秉持尊重的态度,爱护好、守护好这个大家庭,决不能合则利用、不合则弃之,让联合国在促进人类和平与发展的崇高事业中发挥更为积极的作用。中国愿同各国秉持共商共建共享理念,探索合作思路,创新合作模式,不断丰富新形势下多边主义实践。
International rules can only be made by the 193 UN Member States together, and not decided by individual countries or blocs of countries. International rules should be observed by the 193 UN Member States, and there is no and should be no exception. Countries should respect the United Nations, take good care of the UN family, refrain from exploiting the Organization, still less abandoning it at one's will, and make sure that the United Nations plays an even more positive role in advancing humanity's noble cause of peace and development.

Ladies and Gentlemen,
Friends,
Comrades,
追昔抚今,鉴往知来。站在新的历史起点,中国将坚持走和平发展之路,始终做世界和平的建设者;坚持走改革开放之路,始终做全球发展的贡献者;坚持走多边主义之路,始终做国际秩序的维护者。
A review of the past can light the way forward. Standing at a new historical starting point, China will stay committed to the path of peaceful development and always be a builder of world peace. China will stay committed to the path of reform and opening-up and always be a contributor to global development. China will stay committed to the path of multilateralism and always be a defender of the international order.
“青山一道同云雨,明月何曾是两乡。”让我们携起手来,站在历史正确的一边,站在人类进步的一边,为实现世界永续和平发展,为推动构建人类命运共同体而不懈奋斗!
As an ancient Chinese poem reads, "Green hills immerse in the same cloud and rain. The same moon lights up towns however far away." Let us join hands, stand on the right side of history and the side of human progress, and work tirelessly for the lasting and peaceful development of the world and for building a community with a shared future for mankind!
谢谢大家。
