关于教育的口译资料

中国的教育问 各位朋友,大家早上好,今天很高兴能跟大家就中国的教育问题展开交流,希望大家能多给我们教育部提建议,提意见,帮助我们把教育工作搞好。 Good morning friends. Today I'm delighted to have the opportunity to exchange views on China's education with you. As part of our discussion, I hope you will provide suggestioins to the Ministry of Education to assist us in our work on education. 首先呢,我相信大家已经在报纸、电视和广播中知道了,今年我们对全国农村义务教育的学生免除学杂费,九年义务教育阶段的费用将由国家公共财政负担。 First, I believe you have learned from newspapers, TV or broadcasts that this year we will exempt tuition and incidental fees fro rural compulsory education in the whole nation. The national budget will be responsible for the fees of the nine-year compulsory education. 今年1.5亿农村孩子将免除学杂费,免书本费,同时还能得到住宿补助,我们叫“两免一补”。This year, 150 million students in rural areas will be exempted from the tuition and incidental and textbook fees. They will also get lodging subsidies. This is called Two Exemptions and One Subsidy. 其实它的后面还有一系列政府加大投入。比如要保证教师的工资,保证学校校园的安全,要保证学校基本的运行经费。所以它是一个整体的保障体系,这个体系已经取得了非常显著的效果。 In fact, our government will expand a series of inputs to education to ensure teachers' wages, campus security and basic school funds. It forms a complete security system and so far marked achievements have been made. 其次就是农民工子女上学。政府现在对这个问题给予了高度重视,采取一切可能的措施,保证我们的孩子能够接受良好的义务教育。 Second, the government has attached great importance to the education of migrant workers' children. All possible measures will be taken to ensure that these children can receive a good compulsory education. 最后,我想谈谈大学生就业的问题。大家知道,人才资源是第一资源。一个国家要想发展,一定要有一批高素质人才。中国经过这么多年的努力,高等教育确实实现了历史性的跨越式发展,大学生在数量上有了很大的增长。 Finally, I want to talk about employment for college graduates. As is known, human resources are one of China's top resources. Quality human resources are essential for a nation's development. After years of effort, China has achieved a historic leap in the development of its higher education. The number of China's college students has increased dramatically. 但是,很多大学生在毕业后难以找到满意的工作,这是不是要归咎于前几年国家实行的扩招政策呢?我们说,不能简单地把“就业难”和扩招画等号。因为与其他发展中国家比,我国大学生在总人数中不过才占20%,数量远远没有达到过剩的程度。 However, many college graduates fail in getting satisfactory jobs. Is the college enrolment expansion that started a few years ago to be blamed? The source of the employment difficulty should not simply be identified as the enrolment expansion. Because college students only account for about 20% of China's population, which is far from being a surplus compared to other developing countries. 大学毕业生为什么就业难,主要有以下四个原因:一是一些高校的专业设置于快速变化的市场需求有偏差;二是中小企业招聘人才缺乏规划;三是学生知识与实际应用难以衔接;四是部分学生缺乏职业规划。 Four points can be regarded as the reasons why college graduates face employment trouble. First, some college discipline arrangements do not meet the needs of the changing market. Second, small and medium-sized enterprises do not plan very well before recruitment. Third, there is a gap between what is taught in college and what is needed in practice. Fourth, some students lack career planning instruction. 中国的教育政策 我们要优先发展教育,建设人力资源强国。 We will give priority to education and turn China into a country rich in human resources. 教育是民族振兴的基石,教育公平是社会公平的重要基础。 Education is the cornerstone of national rejuvenation, and equal access to education provides an important underpinning for social equity. 我们要全面贯彻党的教育方针,坚持育人为本、德育为先,实施素质教育,提高教育现代化水平, We must implement the Party's educational policy to the letter, focus on educating students with top priority given to cultivating their moral integrity, improve their overall quality, modernize the educational system, 培养德智体美全面发展的社会主义建设者和接班人,办好人民满意的教育。 and train socialist builders and successors who have all-round attainments in moral, intellectual, physical and aesthetic education.

Distance learning and continuing education will be promoted to make a society in which every citizen is committed to learning and pursues lifelong learning. 孔子 孔子(公元前551—公元前479),名丘,字仲尼,春秋末期伟大的思想家和教育家,儒家学派的创始人。孔子一共教授了3000多个学生,其中不乏贫困家庭的孩子,改变了只有贵族子女才有资格上学的传统。孔子晚年还编订上古书籍,《诗经》、《尚书》、《周易》等都经过他的编订。孔子的言行被他的弟子们收集在《论语》一书中,他的思想也被后人吸收和发扬光大,成为中国传统思想最主要的组成部分,并逐渐传播到周边国家,形成了影响范围很广的儒家文化圈。联合国教科文组织曾将孔子列入世界十大文化名人。 Confucius named Qiu and styled Zhongni, a great thinker and educator in the late Spring and Autumn Period, and the founder of Confucianism. Confucius instructed more than 3,000 disciples and some were from poor families. He gradually changed the tradition that only the nobilities had the rights to receive the education. In his later years, Confucius compiled many literary work of ancient time, including the Book of Songs, the Book of Documents and the Book of Changes. His sayings and behaviors were compiled in The Analects of Confucius. His ideology has been absorbed and carried which composes the essential part of Chinese traditional ideology. It was also spread into the border regions and areas building up a circle of Confucianism. UNESCO (united nations educational, scientific and cultural organization) has labeled him as one of the “Ten Cultural Celetaities.” 老庄与道家思想 中国道家思想的创始人是春秋末年的老子。老子,姓李,名耳,他著作的《道德经》只有5000多字,却对后来的中国人却产生了非常深远的影响。老子用“道”来说明宇宙万物的产生和演变,他告诉人们在思想和行为上也要遵守道的规律和特点,顺其自然,以柔克刚,因为明软弱的东西往往本质坚强。庄子,名周,在他的著作《庄子》中继承和发展了老子“道法自然”的观点,主张将外在的万物与自我等同起来,将生与死等同起来,庄子追求的是精神世界的超越和逍遥。后人习惯将二人以“老庄”并称。 Lived in the later years of the Spring and Autumn Period, Laozi was the founder of Taoism. His family name was Li and given name was Er. His masterpiece Tao Te Ching, with only 5,000 characters, had a significant impact upon the thoughts of later generations. Laozi applied "Tao" to explain the origin and evolvement of the universe. He maintained that the law of "Tao" could be applied to guide people's thinking and behavior. Everything should be in conformance with the nature. What appears soft and weak can defeat what is hard and strong. Zhuangzi's given name was Zhou. In his book Zhuangzi, he absorbed and developed Laozi's viewpoint that "Tao is defined by nature" and claimed that everything exterior can be equated with self and life and death are equal. He pursued a spiritual realm of absolute freedom. Descendants usually mention them comparably. Brief Introduction to the Course Okay, Okay, let's begin. Hello, everyone.
