1、大学生英语演讲稿大学生英语演讲稿His Excellency Jiang Zemins SpeechMr. Levin,Distinguished guests, friends and colleagues,Ladies and gentlemen,On this splendid moonlit night in mid-autumn, as we gather in the beautiful city of Shanghai, located on the coast of the Eastern Sea, let me, on behalf of the Chinese govern
2、ment and people, extend a warm welcome to the friends who have come to take part in the 99 Fortune Global Forum, which is sponsored by Time-Warner Group Inc.This forums theme is “China: the next 50 years.“ China is a large developing socialist country, and its future development will not only direct
3、ly affect the future of the Chinese people, but will also have important impact on the development and progress of Asia and the world.Over the past hundred-odd years, the Chinese people have gone through storm and stress, and in the course of vigorous struggle they have accomplished a great historic
4、 transformation. New Chinas 50 years of development have resulted in accomplishments that have astonished the world.Only six years ago, in this Lujiazui District of Shanghais Pudong area, where we are gathered this evening, there were only run-down houses and farms. Now it is a vibrant modern financ
5、ial and business zone, full of highrise buildings. Over fifty years ago, I was in Shanghai attending university. At that time, I had a deep sense of the poverty, backwardness and feebleness of the old China. It was then that I decided to devote myself to the noble task of building an independent, fr
6、ee, democratic, unified, rich and powerful New China, and I have been struggling for that to this very day. Fourteen years ago, I became mayor of Shanghai and experienced the process of reform, opening-up and modernization in this, Chinas biggest city. Im sure that all of you have seen with your own
7、 eyes the constant and unceasing transformation of Shanghai. The growth of Shanghai is one reflection of the enormous changes taking place in China.In the first 50 years of the 20th century, the Chinese people made unflagging efforts to change the tragic fate that had been theirs ever since the Opiu
8、m War. After arduous and valiant struggle, they finally ended their semi-colonial and semi-feudal history, won independence for the nation and freedom for the people, and founded the Peoples Republic of China under the leadership of the Communist Party of China.In the latter half of the 20th century
9、, relying on their own efforts, the Chinese people went all out to make their country strong, and began socialist construction. On the poor and deprived foundation of old China, they built a relatively complete industrial structure and national economic framework, raising the levels of their cultura
10、l and material lives significantly. China started marching forward steadily toward prosperity. Now, the Chinese people are confidently taking the road to the future, the road of socialism with Chinese characteristics pioneered by Comrade Deng Xiaoping. These historic initiatives of the Chinese peopl
11、e have fundamentally transformed the tragic fate of modern China, and they are also great contributions made by the Chinesepeople to the cause of human progress.At this moment in time, when we are about to step into the 21st century and look ahead at the prospects for the next 50 years, we are fille
12、d with confidence. The Chinese people will firmly and unswervingly follow the path of reform and opening-up. Our goal is to realize modernization by the middle of the coming century, to make our country a wealthy, strong, democratic and civilized modern socialist country, and to achieve the great re
13、vival of theChinese nation.Here, I would like to speak to you about some basic values of the Chinese people. Without an understanding of these, it is difficult to make sense of present and future events in China.The Chinese people have always respected the dignity and worth of human beings. The Comm
14、unist Party of China led the people in revolution, construction and reform for the very purpose of realizing freedom, democracy and human rights for all the people of China. The great vitality displayed nowadays in China vividly demonstrates the tremendous space that the Chinese people have to freel
15、y and democratically exercise their creativity. China has a population of over billion, but its social production is still not well developed, and we must first and foremost safeguard the peoples rights to survival and development; otherwise we cannot even begin to talk about other rights. The fact
16、that China has assured the rights to survival and development of over billion people is a major contribution to the cause of the progress of human rights all over the world. The Chinese people advocate the close interlinking of collective human rights with individual human rights, of economic, social and cultural rights with citizens political rights. This is the road we must take for the cause of promoting human rights in light of Chinas national conditions.The Chinese people have al
