单元20 中国法制改革1
今天，能有机会来到这所历史悠久、享有盛誉的著名大学进行参观和演讲，我感到十分高兴。回首百年，我们两国的政治、经济、社会、法律等领域，都有了符合本国实际的十分巨大的发展和变化。改革开放20多年来，中国发生了沧桑巨变。
Today, I'm very pleased to have the opportunity to visit this historic and prestigious university, and to give a speech. Looking back over the past one hundred years, there have been tremendous developments and changes in the political, economic, social and legal spheres that were appropriate to the individual characteristics of our respective countries. After 20 years of reform, China has undergone a world of changes.
今天，我想重点向各位介绍一下中国法制建设和司法改革的情况。中国的法制建设是根据中国的国情进行的。20多年来，中国为了促进改革开放和现代化建设的顺利进行，在坚持经济体制改革的同时，也进行了政治体制改革，民主法制建设也不断得到加强。
Today, I'd like to focus on the development of our legal system and our judicial reform. The rule of law in China has been developed in accordance with the individual characteristics of China. For over 20 years, in order to safeguard and facilitate reform and modernization, we have carried out political reforms along with economic reforms. We have also been working on our democratic legal system.
人民代表大会制度是中国的根本政治制度。国家各级行政、审判、检察机关都由人民代表大会产生，并对其负责。这种政治体制适合中国的国情，是中国人民的正确选择。第九届全国人大第二次会议通过了宪法修正案，把依法治国，建设社会主义法制国家的基本方略写进了宪法。
The People's Congress is the comer stone of the political system in China. The state administrative, judicial and procuratory organs at all levels are appointed by the Congress and accountable to it. This system suits China. It is the correct choice made by the Chinese people. At the second plenary session of the Ninth People's Congress, we approved the revised constitution. The rule of law, to develop a socialist country ruled by the law, has been written into the constitution as our basic strategy.
这是中国法制建设进程中的一个里程碑，表明中国坚持法制的坚定立场和明确态度。20多年来，中国的立法工作取得了重要进展。全国人大及其常委会已制定了370多件法律和有关法律问题的决定;中央政府制定了800多件全国性行政法规;地方人大制定了7000多件地方性法规。
That was a milestone in the development of our legal system. It demonstrates China's commitment to the rule of law and its unequivocal attitude. It the past 20 years, we have achieved much in legislation. The National People's Congress and its Standing Committee have instigated 370 laws and decisions about the law. The central government formulated more than 800 national level administrative regulations. The local People's Congresses formulated over 7,000 bylaws and regulations.
为了建立社会主义市场经济体制，中国先后制定了公司法、担保法、票据法、证券法、合同法、个人独资企业法等法律。为了发展社会主义民主政治，维护公民合法权益，修改了刑事法、刑事诉讼法、村民委员会组织法。与此同时，制定了行政复议法等。
In order to develop the socialist market economy, China has instigated Corporation Law, Guarantee Law, Negotiable Instruments Law, Securities Law, Contract Law and Sole Proprietor Enterprise Law. In order to develop socialist democratic politics, and to protect the lawful interests of citizens, we have revised the Criminal Law, Criminal Prosecution Law and the Law of the Organization of Village Councils. At the same time, we have instigated Administrative Reconsideration Law.
最高人民法院制定了大量的诉讼程序方面的司法解释。这些制度的制定与实施，是中国司法改革进程的重要成果。总的来说，以宪法为基础的社会主义法律体系的框架已初步形成。按照依法治国的方略，中国有信心到2010年形成有中国特色的社会主义法律体系。
The Supreme People's Court has promulgated many judicial interpretations of procedural matters in prosecution. The formulation and implementation of the system is a major achievement in the reform of the judicial system in China. Generally speaking, we now have the initial framework of a socialist legal system based on our constitution. In accordance with the strategy of ruling the country by law, China is confident that it will have a socialist legal system with Chinese characteristics by 2010.
中国是个多法域国家。香港、澳门回归后，中国成功实行了“一国两制”。内地实行社会主义制度，而香港和澳门继续实行原有的社会制度、经济制度和生活方式。原有的法律制度也基本未变。这就出现了世界上其他国家没有的一种独特法律现象。
China is a country of several legal traditions. After the return of Hong Kong and Macao, China successfully implemented the policy of "One Country, Two Systems". The Inland China uses the socialist system. Hong Kong and Macao continue with their previous social and economic systems, maintaining their way of life. Furthermore, there has been very little change to their legal systems. This has created a unique entity unseen anywhere else in the world.
为了避免发生法律冲突，中国内地与香港、澳门制定了一套解决一国之内因法域不同而产生的法律冲突的规则。这些努力，促进了两地之间司法方面的联系与协助，促进了“一国两制”、“港人治港”、“澳人治澳”方针的施行。
To avoid clashes between legal systems, China has instigated, in conjunction with Hong King and Macao, a set of regulations aimed at resolving legal conflicts arising from different legal traditions. This has improved judicial communication and coordination across legal boundaries. It has also facilitated the implementation of the principles of "One Country, Two Systems", "Hong Kong Ruled by Hong Kong People" and "Macao Ruled by Macao People".
单元21 梅森律师事务所 (英音)
Welcome to Aylesbury Street. We are delighted to have the opportunity to talk to you this morning regarding some of the practical legal issues that we have come across on rail projects. We hope that this session can stimulate some useful discussions which we can continue over lunch, to which we have invited a number of our railway industry associates from differing businesses and organizations.
欢迎到访我们事务所。我们很高兴今天上午有机会跟你们谈谈一些实际的法律问题，也就是我们在铁路项目上遇到的法律问题。我们希望这个介绍可以带动讨论，讨论会在午饭期间继续进行。届时我们邀请了铁路行业不同公司和组织的几位同行共进午餐。
Masons and Rail. As a leading international construction and engineering law firm, Masons has a long and active involvement in providing advice to and working with members of the railway industry. Projects with which we have been associated include Hong Kong. We have provided advice to KCRC over many years, including advice on the development of the light rail scheme in the New Territories.
梅森和铁路。作为国际建筑和工程法律方面的著名律师行，梅森长期以来，积极向铁路行业的成员提供咨询并与他们合作。我们参与过包括香港在内的合作项目。我们多年来为KCRC提供咨询，包括新界轻轨项目的发展。
Channel Tunnel. We acted as advisor to the TML consortium regarding a wide range of issues arising from the construction of what is probably the greatest European civil engineering project of the last century. Malaysia. We have acted for the sponsors of the Kuala Lumpur light rails stem and associated infrastructure. Singapore. We worked with the contractor for the MRT system. Sough Africa. We are currently working with the government of the Gauteng/Johannesburg province in relation to the procurement of a new rail network using private-public partnership methods.
英法海底隧道：我们担任了TML财团的咨询顾问，就广泛的建设问题提供咨询，为这个很可能是上个世纪欧洲规模最大的建设工程项目作出了贡献。马来西亚：我们的客户是吉隆坡轻轨系统和相关基础设施的赞助者。新加坡：我们与MRT 系统的合同商合作。南非：我们正在帮助Gauteng、约翰内斯堡的省政府，策划购买一个新的铁路网络。通过采用公私伙伴关系的方式。
UK. We are perhaps the pre-eminent law firm in the light rail sector, having acted for the concession company on the Arrow Light Rail project in Nottingham in the Midlands, which is the first such scheme to reach financial close under the UK government's "private finance initiative", and we are currently active on the four other light rail schemes that have gone out to bidders.
英国：我们在轻轨铁路行业也许是最著名的律师事务所，在英格兰中部诺丁汉市的神箭轻轨铁路项目中为特许承建公司负责法律事务。这是同类中第一个在英国政府的私营资金行动计划中财政完结的项目。我们还在积极参与另外四个正在招标的轻轨项目。
Masons lawyers were involved in advising contractors on the major Jubilee Line Extension of London Underground, and we are currently advising on aspects of the LUL PPP scheme. Europe. Europe. Masons has worked on projects throughout Europe. We have acted for bankers in relation to the Barcelona metro, provided advice on private rail franchises in Scandinavia and are currently acting for the Irish governments' Railway Procurement Agency in the procurement of a metro system for Dublin.

Rail opportunities: As I am sure you are aware, these are very exciting times for those of us who work on rail projects. For example, in United Kingdom, the government has announced that it proposes to invest ￡6 billion in the rail sector over the next 10 years. In many countries, much of the infrastructure that is being used dates back to the end of the nineteenth and early twentieth century and needs replacing.
铁路方面的机会：我敢肯定，各位都清楚，对于我们这些以铁路项目为本行的人来说，眼下是个令人兴奋的时期。比如，在英国，政府已经宣布提议在今后10年中在铁路行业投资60亿英镑。在很多国家，目前的基础设施中不少都是19世纪末、20世纪初建成的，需要更换。
There are many projects under way at present in the United Kingdom and further field to up-date out-dated technology in the field of signaling and control systems, track geometry, rolling stock and so on. In the wider context, the demand to reduce the harmful environmental effects of private vehicle use is leading to demands for a "modal shift" to public transportation, and we are seeing increasing numbers of schemes being drawn up for light rail systems, tramways, guided buses and metros.
现在在英国和其他国家就有很多项目正在实施，在信号和控制系统、铁轨几何、铁路车辆等方面更新换代。从更广泛的意义上说，在减少对环境有害的私家汽车的使用的呼声下，人们要求改乘公车。我们看到越来越多的轻轨、有轨电车、导向公车和地铁项目正在筹划之中。
Rail challenges: From both a technological and legal perspective, rail projects can produce bigger challenges than almost any other type of infrastructure projects. The next hour or so, my partner Jon Hart will be speaking about particular issues that they see as fundamental, including funding and financing aspects of rail projects as well as design, construction and some operational issues. There will also be time for questions.
铁路的挑战：从技术和法律角度看，铁路项目带来的挑战会超过任何其他形式的基础设施项目。在接下来一小时左右的时间里，我的合伙人Jon Hart将谈谈他们认为具有根本性质的几个特别问题，其中包括铁路项目的资金来源和融资，还有设计、建设和一些操作上的问题。然后还有时间提问题。
单元22 中国法制改革2
随着法制建设的不断加强，中国法院各项工作也在不断改进和加强。人民法院在国家的社会生活中日益发挥着重要的作用，重视履行宪法和法律赋予的职责，打击严重刑事犯罪，保证人民安居乐业，为国家经济建设创造良好的社会环境，依法惩处破坏市场经济秩序的犯罪。
As our legal system continues to develop, our courts are improving, too. The People's Courts are playing an increasingly important role in the social life of our country. We carry out duties bestowed on us by the Constitution and the law. We fight serious crimes. We protect the life and property of the people. We create the social conditions for economic development. We use the law to punish those who sabotage the order of the market economy.
人民法院维护市场经济秩序，坚决打击贪污贿赂犯罪，惩治腐败，依法审理民事、经济、行政案件;调节经济关系，化解社会矛盾，维护社会正义。人民法院对各种社会矛盾和纠纷的依法公正裁判，成为经济发展和社会生活中不可或缺的一个重要环节。
The People's Courts maintain order in the market economy, crack down on embezzlement and briber, punish corruption, handle civil, economic and administrative cases, balance economic relations, resolving social conflicts, and upholding social justice. The People's Courts pass fair judgments in social conflicts and disputes, and have become an indispensable part of our economic development and social life.
中国颁布实施《法官法》，是中国法制建设中的一件大事。《法官法》第一次确立了中国法官的地位和职责，明确了法官的权利和义务，规定了有关法官的各项管理原则和制度，为建立和完善中国的法官制度奠定了基础。
China has promulgated the Law on Judges. This is a major event in our legal development. The Law on Judges has established the status and duties of judges in China for the first time. It has clarified the rights and obligations of judges, and specified management principles and systems relating to judges. It has laid the foundation for future development of the judge system in China.
中国最高人民法院按照国家关于推进司法改革的要求，以宪法和诉讼法等法律为依据，加大了司法改革的步伐，理顺了法院的管理体制，实行了高级人民法院统一管理、统一协调的新体制，建立完善了人民陪审员制度，实行“阳光下的审判”。
The Supreme People's Court of China is meeting the State's request to drive forward judicial reform. In accordance with the Constitution and such statutes as Prosecution Law, we have increased our efforts to rationalize the management system of our courts. We have now implemented central management and coordination by the Senior People's Courts. We have established the system of People's Jurors. It is now all above board.
全国法官取消过去的制服，开庭身着红色前襟、配有装饰性黄色领口的黑色法袍，体现了人民法官职业的时代特点，反映出中国民主法制建设的进步。最高人民法院公布了司法救助的规定，标志着中国司法救助制度从雏形走向完善。
Judges across the country have abandoned the old uniform, and now wear black robes with red lapels and a neckline decorated with a yellow band in court. This keeps with the times. It symbolizes the progress of democratic legal development in China. The Supreme People's Court has issues regulations of legal aid, a sign that the legal aid system in China is moving from inception towards maturity.
这些司法改革的重大步骤，对中国民主法制进程具有积极的作用。经过努力，我们有信心建设一个更加公正、更加廉洁、更加高效、更加文明，具有中国特色的社会主义审判机制和组织体系。中国的历程充分证明：法制是现代社会发展的必由之路。
These are major steps forward in our judicial reform. It has brought momentum to the development of our democratic legal system. We are confident that we will have a socialist trial mechanism and an organizational system that is fairer, corruption free, more efficient and more civilized, with Chinese characteristics. China's experience has proven that the rule of law is the only way forward for a modern society.
不实行法制，国家无以富强，人民无以幸福。不实行法制，社会难以实现长治久安。中国已经明确提出把发展社会主义民主政治、依法治国、建设社会主义法制国家作为社会主义现代化建设的重要目标。为适应经济体制改革和现代化建设的要求，我们将继续推进政治体制改革。
Without the rule of law, a nation can't prosper and people won't be happy. Without the rule of law, there will not be long-term order and security. China has clearly stated its goal is to be the development of socialist democratic politics, a country ruled by law, and the development of a socialist country ruled by law. In order to meet the requirements of economic reform and modernization, we will continue to drive forward the reform of our political system.
我们要加强民主法制建设，推进司法改革，严格执法，公正司法。中国的法制建设和司法改革充满希望。我们两国之间法律界和司法界的友好交流已经有了良好的基础。中国法律界和司法界愿同贵国同仁一道加强交流与合作，为促进两国友好合作关系作出新的贡献。
We will strengthen our democratic legal system, carry forward the judicial reform, implement laws to the letter, and uphold judicial justice. There is great prospect in the development of our legal system and judicial reform. We have an excellent foundation for friendly exchanges between the legal and judicial professions of our two countries.

Universal Instruments is a multinational company with sales, service, product training, and parts distribution locations throughout the world. In addition, the corporation operates manufacturing facilities in both Binghamton, New York, and Shekou, China. Universal Instruments employs more than 1,100 people and operates in more than 30 countries. All Universal employees worldwide operate under a common mission: to be a global supplier of automated electronic assembly technology, equipment, and support through product innovation and enhancement of customer productivity.
我们是个跨国公司，拥有销售、服务、产品培训和零部件配送中心，遍布世界各地。除此之外，我们在纽约的宾厄姆顿和中国的蛇口都有制造工厂。万能工具公司有员工1100人，遍布全球30多个国家。所有员工都以一个宗旨行事，这就是要通过产品创新和增进顾客生产力来成为自动电子组装技术、设备和支持的全球供应商。
Universal Instrument traces its roots to the Universal Instruments and Metal Company, a safety pin manufacturer founded in 1919. Through time, the company discontinued safety pin production and made a transition to a machining and tool and die business. By controlling costs during the Great Depression, Universal continued to grow through World War II, when the company's tool and die talents were pressed to meet the needs of the state's small arms manufacturers.
我们万能工具公司起源于万能工具和金属公司，1919年成立时，我们只是个安全别针的生产商。随着时间的推移，公司停止生产安全别针，转而经营机械加工、工具和铸件业务。在大萧条时期，由于我们控制成本好，二战期间，公司继续增长。当时公司的工具和铸件人才非常紧张，忙于满足国家小型武器生产商的需求。
This work continued until the 1950s, when Universal entered the electronics assembly equipment manufacturing industry. Universal first built electronic circuit assembly equipment for through hole components in the 1960s. In the early 1990s Universal developed a modular platform concept and shipped its first platform-based surface mount technology machines in 1993.
这项工作持续到20世纪50年代，我们进入了电子组装设备制造行业。公司先是在60年代建立了通孔零部件的电子线路组装设备。90年代初，公司开发出组合平台概念，于1993年首次运交平台支持平面安装技术机器。
With an installed base of several thousand machines, Universal's GSM Platform is widely accepted an has evolved into an industry standard. Today, Universal Instruments is regarded as a leading manufacturer of electronic assembly equipment. Universal Instruments offers a robust and flexible line of products to meet virtually all your circuit assembly equipment needs.

With this in mind, you can be sure Universal Instruments takes its service commitment very seriously.
我们万能工具公司的成员认为，服务将越来越成为竞争上的区别因素，因为制造流程越来越精密。顾客组成的变化正不断地增加对我们全球顾客的要求，新的和二手机器进和使用领域，却没有经验，或只有有限的支持服务基础设施。鉴于此，大家可以放心，万能工具公司对服务上的承诺非常认真。
