问题    Interpret the following passages from English into Chinese. Start interpreting at the signal and stop at the signal. You may take notes while you are listening. You will hear each passage only once. Now, let’s begin.
As someone who has long been engaged in promoting America’s trade ties with China, I am so glad to attend today’s seminar on Chinese investment in the United States, and I very much appreciate your interest in making investment in my country. The message I wish to convey to you is loud and clear: The United States welcomes China’s investment, a point made abundantly clear by President Obama when he met Chinese President Xi Jinping in California. Why? The reason is simple: We need Chinese investment to create good-paying American jobs, upgrade our infrastructure and broaden our middle class.
   And there are also a whole lot of reasons why Chinese companies ought to come here. The United States has the world’s largest market. America is open for business. People are looking at lower energy costs here. They’re looking at stability. They’re looking at the increased productivity of our workers. This is a great platform from which you can export duty free around the world because of the free trade agreements we have with many countries. The U.S. market is well developed with a sound legal system and there are a lot of sectors worth your investment. The weak recovery in the U.S. economy means opportunities for Chinese companies to acquire technology, brands and sales networks, which can be connected with the huge Chinese market and bring great benefits to Chinese investors. China and the U.S. agreed in July last year to start substantive negotiations on a bilateral investment treaty, which will reduce investment barriers and facilitate market access in the two economies. So it is now the best time for Chinese companies to put money in the United States.
   Entering a new foreign market is a great challenge for any country. There will be differences in culture, languages, regulations, consumer habits, infrastructure, and human capital. So, what is important is that you should learn more about the American culture, mesh with it instead of fighting it. We’re going to help you navigate national, state and local rules and regulations so that you can invest faster, open facilities faster, and make profits faster. But in the United States, some industries are highly regulated. And foreign companies should appreciate this to avoid delays.
   To succeed in the United States, a Chinese company should hire experienced local staff who understand how business is conducted across cultures and identify key stakeholders. You should also seek legal, accounting and insurance services provided by American law firms, investment banks, public relations firms and insurance companies to reduce risks. Chinese companies operating in the U.S. need to think how they can contribute to the local community and bolster American growth and employment. In addition, they should undertake crisis planning to prevent a minor issue from developing into a big one that could affect their image.
   Building brands is critically important. Chinese brands are not very well-known in the United States. Chinese companies therefore will have to do more to build awareness and promote their products to American consumers. It takes time and money for an investment project to be successful. You need to make long-term and major investment or just don’t bother. More importantly, starting green-field projects, namely, building new factories from ground, provides a smoother move into the U.S. market than does a merger or acquisition. As more Chinese companies make investment in the United States, they will add a new dimension to the close business relations between the world’s two largest economies. It is my hope that Chinese companies will be firmly implanted in the United States and become an integral and valuable part of our country’s economic and social fabric.

选项

答案 长期以来,我一直从事于促进美国与中国的贸易关系,能够出席今天关于中国对美投资的研讨会,感到非常高兴,也感谢在座的各位有兴趣到美国投资。我想向各位表达一个明确无误的信息:美国欢迎中国投资。美国总统奥巴马在加利福尼亚会见中国国家主席习近平的时候就强调了这一点。为什么呢?原因非常简单:我们需要中国的投资,以在美国创造高收入的就业机会,升级基础设施,并扩大美国的中产阶级。 中国公司应该来美国投资的原因同样也很多:美国是世界上最大的市场。美国对做生意持开放的态度。人们看重美国较低的能源成本和美国的稳定。他们看重美国工人不断提高的生产力。由于我们与许多国家签有自由贸易协定,你们可以从美国这个绝好的平台向世界各地免税出口。美国有高度发达的市场,健全的法律制度,有众多值得你们投资的领域。美国经济复苏疲软,这意味着中国公司有机会获得技术,产品品牌和销售网络,与巨大的中国市场对接。这将给中国投资者带来巨大的利益。去年七月,中美两国同意就达成一项双边投资条约进行实质性谈判。这将减少投资障碍,并扩大我们两国经济的市场准入。所以,现在是中国公司在美国投资的最佳时机。 进入一个新的外国市场对任何国家都是一个巨大的挑战。在文化、语言、规章制度、消费者习惯、基础设施和人力资源方面都会有众多差异。所以,重要的是,你们应当更多了解美国文化,融入美国文化,而不是抵触它。我们将会帮助你们熟悉我们的国家、州和地方的规章制度,使你们能够更快投资,更快开业,更快盈利。但在美国,有一些行业管制程度很高,外国公司对此应有所了解,以避免造成拖延。 中国公司要在美国取得成功,应雇用有经验、了解在不同文化之间如何做生意的本地雇员,并要找到关键的利益攸关方。你们也应该寻求美国律师事务所、投资银行、公关公司和保险公司提供的法律、会计和保险方面的服务,以降低风险。在美国从事业务的中国公司应当考虑如何对当地社区做出贡献,并促进美国的增长和就业。除此之外,中国公司也要有应对危机的预案,以防止小事件变成大事态,进而影响自身形象。 创立品牌极为重要。由于中国品牌在美国知名度不高,中国公司需要加倍努力树立品牌意识,向美国消费者推销其产品。投资取得成功需要时间和资金投入。你们应该进行长期和重大项目的投资,否则根本就不必考虑投资。更重要的是,进行待开发项目的投资,即破土兴建工厂,要采取比并购更稳的方式进入美国市场。随着更多的中国公司在美国投资,它们将为世界上两个最大的经济体之间密切的经贸关系增加新的内涵。我希望,中国公司将牢固地扎根于美国,成为美国经济和社会结构中不可缺少和宝贵的一员。
