It is a great honor for me to be here and to have this opportunity to speak with all of you.

And I am very sorry that my Chinese is not as good as your English,but I am looking forward to this chance to have a dialogue.

I'm excited to see this majestic country.

we see the growth that has caught the attention of the world -- the soaring skyscrapers,the bustling streets and entrepreneurial activity.And just as I'm impressed by these signs of China's journey to the 21st century,I'm eager to see those ancient places that speak to us from China's distant past.

Tomorrow and the next day I hope to have a chance when I'm in Beijing to see the majesty of the Forbidden City and the wonder of the Great Wall.Truly,this is a nation that encompasses both a rich history and a belief in the promise of the future.

It was here,37 years ago,that the Shanghai Communique opened the door to a new chapter of engagement between our governments and among our people.

This is a common American impulse -- the desire to reach for new horizons,and to forge new partnerships that are mutually beneficial.

the currents of history have steered the relationship between our countries in many directions.

The commerce affects our people's lives in so many ways.America imports from China many of the computer parts we use,the clothes we wear; and we export to China machinery that helps power your industry.This trade could create even more jobs on both sides of the Pacific,while allowing our people to enjoy a better quality of life.And as demand becomes more balanced,it can lead to even broader prosperity.

Today,we have a positive,constructive and comprehensive relationship that opens the door to partnership on the key global issues of our time -- economic recovery and the development of clean energy; stopping the spread of nuclear weapons and the scourge of climate change; the promotion of peace and security in Asia and around the globe.

China has lifted hundreds of millions of people out of poverty -- an accomplishment unparalleled in human history -- while playing a larger role in global events.

And yet the success of that engagement depends upon understanding -- on sustaining an open dialogue,and learning about one another and from one another.For just as that American table tennis player pointed out -- we share much in common as human beings,but our countries are different in certain ways.

I believe that each country must chart its own course.China is an ancient nation,with a deeply rooted culture.

None of this was easy.

But we made progress because of our belief in those core principles,which have served as our compass through the darkest of storms.That is why…

We do not seek to impose any system of government on any other nation,but we also don't believe that the principles that we stand for are unique to our nation.

China is content to rest on our achievements.For while China is an ancient nation,you are also clearly looking ahead with confidence,ambition,and a commitment to see that tomorrow's generation can do better than today's.


above all,I see China's future in you -- young people whose talent and dedication and dreams will do so much to help shape the 21st century.
Clearly you've been studying very hard.And having a chance to meet with all of you I think has given me great hope for the future of U.S.-China relations.
So thank you very much everybody.Thank you.把握好時(shí)間,演講時(shí)間在3分鐘左右!
