中英政治关系更加紧密。卡梅伦首相率领包括休恩大臣在内的超强阵容代表团成功访华。两国领导人在G20峰会期间举行良好沟通和合作。外交大臣黑格、财政大臣奥斯本也分别访华。我们也不能忘记在座的米利班德先生去年同戴秉国国务委员启动了首次中英高级别战略对话。不久前,中国国务院副总理李克强成功访英,进一步推动了两国关系发展的良好势头。
We have seen closer political ties. These included Prime Minister Cameron's successful visit to China with a senior delegation, including Mr Huhne. Our leaders worked closely together at the G20 summits. Foreign Secretary William Hague and Chancellor George Osborne both visited China. Let us also not forget that it was Mr David Miliband who launched the upgraded Strategic Dialogue with State Councillor Dai Bingguo. The recent visit by Vice Premier Li Keqiang to Britain was another success, keeping up the good momentum for the growth of our relations.

中英各领域合作“百花齐放”。中英双边贸易额实现新的突破。去年,双边货物贸易额首次超过500亿美元,双方还确立了今后五年双边贸易额达到1000亿美元的新目标。英国在上海世博会上的出色表现,令中国民众对英国的印象焕然一新。我在英国也强烈感受到不断升温的“汉语热”,从大学生到小学生,学习汉语的人数越来越多。当然,与中国有近4亿人在学习英语相比,增长潜力还很大。中英文化领域的交流也是如火如荼,就在10天前,50万英国民众参加了特拉法加广场中国春节活动。我也很高兴地见证中英签署大熊猫科研合作协议,两只可爱的大熊猫不久将落户爱丁堡动物园。
We have seen fruitful cooperation across the board. Our trade in goods hit a record of over 50 billion US dollars in 2010, and a goal was set to double this figure in the next 5 years. Britain's spectacular performance at the Shanghai World Expo has enabled the Chinese public to see and experience what Britain is like today. I am also pleased to find that there is an emerging "mandarin fever" here. More and more people started to learn mandarin, whether as college students, primary school children or adults wanting to learn for business or just pleasure. Of course there is a huge potential to tap, if you look at the number of Chinese learning English – 400 million. Cultural exchanges have been robust. Just 10 days ago, half a million people enthusiastically attended the Trafalgar Square Chinese New Year Celebrations. I also had the pleasure of witnessing the signing of an agreement on joint research, which will soon bring two lovely giant pandas to Edinburgh Zoo.

告别成绩斐然的虎年,我们迎来充满希望的兔年。在中国,“兔”在十二生肖中也被称为“卯”。“卯”字描绘了草木萌芽出土的形象,代表着春意和黎明,代表着万物复苏和无限生机。在西方,兔子也象征着春天和再生。兔年寓示着吉祥好兆,我们应该抓住机遇,开拓创新,在新的一年,努力实现中英关系三个“超越”:
We waved goodbye to a fruitful Year of the Tiger and entered the hopeful Year of the Rabbit. In the 12 Chinese animal signs, Rabbit goes with one of the 12 earthly branches – "mao", which represents newly sprung buds, and is therefore a symbol of spring, dawn, recovery and dynamism. I know the rabbit also symbolises spring and renewal in Western culture. So let us make full use of this auspicious year to take China-UK relations forward with a pioneering and innovative spirit:

第一,超越差异分歧,增进政治互信。中英两国历史文化、社会制度、价值观念不同,但中英关系几十年发展的历史进程告诉我们两国完全可以做到和平、和谐共处。双方应从两国关系大局出发,相互尊重、平等相待,增进了解、加强信任。上个月,胡锦涛主席访美时,中美一致同意要建设相互尊重、互利共赢的合作伙伴关系,我认为这一共识同样适用于发展中英关系。
Let us rise above differences and increase political mutual trust. Despite the differences in our historical and cultural heritage, social system and values, China and Britain have shown that we can live with each other in peace and harmony. We have learnt to respect each other as equals and increase mutual understanding and trust. During his visit to the United States last month, President Hu Jintao and President Obama pledged to build a China-US partnership based on mutual respect and mutual benefit. I believe this also applies to China-UK relations.

第二,超越买卖关系,促进共同增长。中英经贸合作不应停留于传统货物贸易领域,停留在简单的互通有无式的“易货贸易”,而应在经济发展理念上相互借鉴学习,在技术创新上加强交流合作,在发展新兴产业上实现资本、技术和市场的良好结合,在相互投资上创造更加便利条件。卡梅伦首相和黑格外交大臣提出中英建立“共同促进经济增长的伙伴关系”,中方也期待着中英通过加强经贸全方位合作,促进两国经济增长和调整转型。
Let us go beyond a mere business relationship of buying and selling and work together for common growth. In addition to traditional trade in goods, China-UK business cooperation should extend to draw upon each other's ideas of economic development and closer exchanges on technological innovation. We should encourage a synergy of capital, technology and market between the two countries and facilitate mutual investment in emerging industries. Just as Prime Minister Cameron and Foreign Secretary Hague proposed a China-UK "partnership for growth", we in China look forward to a comprehensive partnership with the UK in trade and investment, which will serve economic growth and restructuring of both countries.
