总理在中欧论坛汉堡峰会第六届会议演讲的开场白
尊敬的施泰因迈尔外长，
尊敬的贝特尔首相，
尊敬的舒尔茨议长，
女士们，先生们：
很高兴出席中欧论坛汉堡峰会。汉堡素有"世界桥城"的美誉，2000多座桥构成这座城市独特的风景线。在我看来，汉堡还有更多无形的桥通向世界。汉堡自古就有自由贸易传统，13世纪就建立了汉萨同盟。......从这里，我们看到的是中欧交流的悠久历史和繁华现实。
[记热词]
自由贸易 free trade
汉萨同盟 Hanseatic League (14世纪中叶在德国北部城镇间形成的商业协会以保护及控制贸易，在15世纪达到鼎盛)
悠久历史和繁华现实 long history and current dynamism
Your Excellency Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier,
Your Excellency Prime Minister Xavier Bettel,
Your Excellency President Martin Schulz,
Ladies and Gentlemen,
It is my great pleasure to attend the "Hamburg Summit: China meets Europe". Known as the "City of Bridges", Hamburg boasts a unique view with over 2,000 bridges. As I see it, Hamburg has even more intangible bridges that extend to the rest of the world. Hamburg has a time-honored tradition of free trade and had established the Hanseatic League back in the 13th century. ...... This illustrates the long history and current dynamism of China-Europe exchanges.

总理在汉堡峰会演讲中谈中国经济
*克强语录
经济发展不是短跑，而是没有终点的长跑。
Economic growth is not a sprint but rather long-distance running that will never end.
经济发展不是短跑，而是没有终点的长跑，要有一定的速度，但更重要的是看耐力和后劲。中国经济增长的质量效益在提升，这是我们希望看到的。服务业比重继续上升，电子商务、物流快递等新兴业态快速发展，高技术产业和装备制造业增长快于整个工业，产业结构调整优化“跨了栏”。节能减排也交出一份好的成绩单，上半年单位GDP能耗同比下降4.2%、碳排放强度下降5%左右，是多年来最大的降幅。
[记热词]
产业结构调整优化 the adjustment and improvement of industrial structure
新兴业态 emerging industries
物流快递 logistics and express delivery
节能减排 energy conservation and emissions reduction
单位GDP能耗 energy consumption per unit of GDP
碳排放强度 carbon intensity
Economic growth is not a sprint but rather long-distance running that will never end. It demands certain speed. More importantly, it demands perseverance and staying power. ...... With the continued rise of the proportion of the service industry, the rapid development of emerging industries such as e-commerce, logistics and express delivery, and the growth of high-tech industries and equipment manufacturing faster than the entire secondary industry, the adjustment and improvement of industrial structure has progressed by leaps and bounds. We have also seen encouraging results in energy conservation and emissions reduction. Energy consumption per unit of GDP was down by 4.2%, and carbon intensity down by about 5% in the first half of this year, the biggest cuts in years.
[学表达]
>not…but rather:
不是……而是
例句：
The process is not a circle but rather a spiral.
这个过程不是一个圆周运动而是螺旋上升型的。
>by leaps and bounds
突飞猛进
例句：
Growing by leaps and bounds, China's economy has been the envy of the world, especially at a time most countries are floundering in the swamp of stagnation.
中国经济的迅猛增长一直为世界所艳羡，特别是在眼下这个大多数国家都在经济萧条中挣扎的时候。
总理在莫斯科国际创新发展论坛上谈创新
*克强语录
创新是人类发展进步的不熄引擎。
Innovation is the perpetual engine driving development and progress of humanity.
创新是人类发展进步的不熄引擎。当今世界正处于大变革、大调整之中，迫切要求更大范围、更深层次的创新。实现这样的创新，墨守成规不行，单打独斗也不行，需要开放、合作与分享。
[记热词]
大变革、大调整 major transformation and adjustment
墨守成规 Being fettered by old convention
单打独斗 relying on one’s own efforts
Innovation is the perpetual engine driving development and progress of humanity. The world, which is undergoing major transformation and adjustment, calls for innovations of greater depth at a wider scope. Being fettered by old conventions or relying on one’s own efforts will not lead to such innovations. What we need is openness, cooperation and sharing.
[学表达]
>call for
要求、需要
例句：
It's a situation that calls for a blend of delicacy and force.
应付这种局面需要刚柔并济。
>be fettered by
被…所束缚
例句：
Many people are fettered by lack of self-confidence.
许多人都因缺乏自信心而缩手缩脚。
我们正在致力于建设 “创新型政府”，首要的事情就是简政放权，这实际上是给市场让出空间，降低市场准入门槛。一年多来，中央政府各部门取消和下放了600多项行政审批事项。今年3月工商登记制度改革后，新设立企业“井喷式”增长。我们强力推进改革，就是要减少对创新活动的干预，让想创业、能创新的人都有机会、可作为，形成“大众创业、万众创新”的局面。这样可以把人口红利转化为人才红利，让改革成为富民的改革，让创新成为惠民的创新，实现人的全面发展、社会公平发展、经济可持续发展。
[记热词]
创新型政府 pro-innovation government
简政放权 streamline administration and delegate government powers
工商登记制度改革 business registration reform
“井喷式”增长 massive surge
人口红利 demographic dividend
人才红利 talent dividend
大众创业、万众创新 entrepreneurship and innovation by all
We are committed to building a pro-innovation government, and the top priority is to streamline administration and delegate government powers. This, in fact, has given more room to the market and lowered the threshold of market access. For the past year and more, central government departments have removed or delegated to lower levels administrative approval on over 600 items. The business registration reform introduced last March triggered a massive surge in the number of newly established businesses. Through vigorous reform, we hope to reduce intervention in innovation, so that everyone with the willingness and ability to create and innovate will have the chance to succeed, leading to a situation of entrepreneurship and innovation by all. This way, we can turn China’s demographic dividend into talent dividend, and ensure that reform and innovation are pursued to enrich and benefit the people. This, in turn, will enable us to deliver all-round development for the people, and promote the development of an equitable society and a sustainable economy.
[学表达]
>be committed to
致力于，献身于，忠于
例句：
We are committed to giving back to community and giving you a clean environment.
我们致力于回馈社区，并为大家提供一个清洁的环境。
>Turn…into…
将…转变为…
例句：
The gardener has turned the wasteland into a wonderland filled with flowers.
那个园艺师把那片荒地变成了开满鲜花的乐园。
总理在汉堡峰会演讲谈中欧合作
*克强语录
中国有句古话，“掘井九轫，必得其水”，我们应当像挖井一样深挖合作潜力。
There is an old saying in China which goes, "You will surely see water coming out if you really dig deep enough". We should indeed tap deeper into our cooperation potential the way we dig a well.
我们身处一个新技术革命和产业变革的时代，当前中欧都处于发展的关键时期，都面临稳定增长、调整结构、促进就业的共同任务，双方深化务实合作既有客观要求，又有难得机遇。中国有句古话，“掘井九轫，必得其水”，我们应当像挖井一样深挖合作潜力。在此，我提出几点建议：
一是共谋贸易发展“大棋局”。
二是推动投资进入“快车道”。
三是开辟创新合作“深海域”。
[记热词]
新技术革命 new technology revolution
产业变革 industrial transformation
务实合作 results-oriented cooperation
掘井九轫，必得其水 You will surely see water coming out if you really dig deep enough
共谋贸易发展“大棋局” make a "grand strategy" to promote growth in trade
推动投资进入“快车道”take bilateral investment onto the "fast track"
开辟创新合作“深海域” explore the "deep ocean" of cooperation on innovation
We live in the age of new technology revolution and industrial transformation. Both China and Europe are at a critical development stage and are faced with the common task of maintaining growth, readjusting structure and creating more jobs. To deepen the results-oriented cooperation is an objective need for both sides and both face rare opportunities in doing so. There is an old saying in China which goes, "You will surely see water coming out if you really dig deep enough". We should indeed tap deeper into our cooperation potential the way we dig a well. Along that line, let me make the following proposals:
First, we should make a "grand strategy" to promote growth in trade.
Second, we should take bilateral investment onto the "fast track".
Third, we should explore the "deep ocean" of cooperation on innovation.
[学表达]
>There is an old saying (in China) which goes...

例句：
There is an old saying in China which goes, "When you drink from a well, remember the person who dug it."

总理在第十届亚欧首脑会议上谈亚欧合作
*克强语录
中国古代思想家荀子说，“积土成山，风雨兴焉”。意大利航海家哥伦布曾经说过，“只要我们能把希望的大陆牢牢装在心中，风浪就一定能被我们战胜”。
Just as the ancient Chinese thinker Xun Zi (Hsun Tsu) remarked, “When earth piles up into mountains, wind and rain will originate thereof.” The Italian navigator Christopher Columbus also observed, “As long as we hold the land of hope close to our heart, we can surely brave the storm.”
亚欧大陆也是世界上发展机遇最多、潜力最大的大陆。亚欧会议创立18年来，成员国间政治对话不断加深，务实合作蓬勃发展，社会文化交流日趋广泛，利益交汇点不断扩大，客观上已形成休戚与共的责任和命运共同体。本次会议的主题是“构建负责任伙伴关系，促进可持续增长与安全”，具有很强的现实意义。中方愿与亚欧各国一道，培育和凝聚亚欧共同体意识，倡导和促进亚欧团结协作，开放兼容，同舟共济，积极构建面向和平与发展的亚欧新型全面伙伴关系。在此，我提出以下几点建议：
——共同维护亚欧和平安全与稳定发展。
——共同推进亚欧互联互通和贸易投资自由化。
——共同促进亚欧人文交流和社会发展。
[记热词]
负责任伙伴关系 responsible partnership
可持续增长与安全 sustainable growth and security
亚欧新型全面伙伴关系 new type of comprehensive partnership between Asia and Europe
亚欧互联互通和贸易投资自由化 connectivity and trade and investment liberalization in Asia and Europe
亚欧人文交流和社会发展 Asia-Europe cultural exchange and social development
Eurasia is a land that boasts the greatest development opportunities and potential in the world. Since its inception 18 years ago, ASEM has witnessed deepening political dialogue, robust practical cooperation and extensive social and cultural exchanges. With expanding converging interests, ASEM members have grown into a community of shared responsibilities and destinies. The theme of this meeting, Responsible Partnership for Sustainable Growth and Security, is highly relevant. China stands ready to work with other ASEM partners in an open, inclusive and united spirit to foster the awareness of community, advocate unity and coordination, and actively build a new type of comprehensive partnership for peace and development between Asia and Europe. Along this line, I wish to make the following proposals:
— We need to jointly uphold peace, security, stability and development in Asia and Europe.
— We need to jointly promote connectivity and trade and investment liberalization in Asia and Europe.
— We need to jointly promote Asia-Europe cultural exchange and social development.
[学表达]
>stand ready to

在国外演讲时，如果能用上一两句当地的语言能够拉近与听众的距离。李克强总理在莫斯科演讲的开头和结尾时就用俄语跟大家问好并表达谢意。
