　　Task One: Interpreting from English into Chinese

　　Directions: Please do not do interpreting when you listen to the speech this time.

　　Speech by a British High Official

　　I arrive in China this week at a time when relations between our two countries have never been better. We are already cooperating more closely on more issues than ever before. Britain's strongest bilateral relations with China have always been based on trade. However, as trade has intensified, other aspects of our relationship have also prospered. Over 5000 Chinese students are now studying in Britain. There are growing cultural links too.

　　Britain has a lot to offer China. 42 of Europe's top 100 companies are British. We are increasingly strong in the knowledge-based industries of the future. One third of Europe's biotechnology companies are located in Britain. We have the world's fifth largest electronics sector. Ten of the world's 35 top-selling pharmaceuticals were researched and developed in the UK. And London is Europe's major financial center wim mC greatest conccrkraiion o± oanKing expeiuse in mc worm.

　　Upon these foundations I want to build a modern relationship with China. I want to consolidate a partnership which' looks forward, not back. We can only tackle global problems if we work together. With one of the great economies of the 21st century, China will increasingly be called upon to share the responsibilities of international leadership. The need for cooperation has never been greater. The agenda ranges from terrorism to nuclear proliferation, from international crime to global poverty; from climate change to drugs. We can only defeat these threats together.

　　By tackling the challenges of the present together, China and Britain can forge a new partnership for the future. I have come to Beijing to forge a new partnership for the future. In doing so, I will be building on firm foundations laid during the complex but ultimately successful transition in Hong Kong. The international community needs to face the challenges of globalization together. With China's support I am confident we can do so.

　　Directions: Now listen again. Please begin interpreting when you hear a beep.
