武汉大学硕士英语期末考试汉译英题库（从里面考） 1.走社会主义道路，就是要逐步实现共同富裕，共同富裕的构想是这样的：一部分地区有条件先发展起来，一部分地区发展慢点，先发展起来的地区带动后发展的地区，最终达到共同富裕……解决的办法之一，就是先富起来的地区多交点利税，支持贫困地区的发展。 To take the road to socialism is to realize common prosperity step by step.Our plan is as follow:where condition s permit,some areas may develop faster than others;those that develop faster can help promote the progress of those that lag behind,until all become progress…One way is for the areas that become prosperous frstt to support the poor ones by paying more taxes or turing in more profits to the state 2.现阶段中国已经实现了粮食基本自给，在未来的发展过程中，中国依靠自己的力量实现粮食基本自给，客观上具备诸多有利因素。 Chian has bascilly achieved self-sufficiency in grain at the present stage,and there are many favorable objective factors for her to maintain such achievement by her own efforts in the course of future development. 3.社会主义用实践向世界表明，中国反对把霸权主义、强权政治，永不称霸。 Scoialist China should show the world through its actions that it is opposed to hegemonism and power politics and will never seek hegemony. 4.过去，只讲在社会主义条件下发展生产力，没有讲还要通过改革解放生产力，不完全。应该把解放生产力和发展生产力两个讲全了。 In the past,we only stressed expansion of the productive forces under socialism,without mentioning the need to liberate them through reform.That conception was incomplete. Both the liberation and the expansion of the productive forces are essential. 5.同时，我们的对外开放采取了多种方式，包括搞经济特区，开放十四个沿海城市。 In the meantime,we have implemented the policy of opening China to the outside world in many ways,including setting up special economic zones and opening14coastal cities. 6.改革开放迈不开步子，不敢闯，说来说去就是怕资本主义的东西多了，走了资本主义道路。要害是姓“资”还是姓“社”的问题。 The reason some people hesitate to carry out the reform and the open policy and dare not break new ground is ,in essence,that they’re afraid it would mean introducing too many elements of capitalism and,indeed,taking the capitalist road.The crux of the matter is whether the road is capitalist or socialist. 7.过去我们搬用别国的模式，结果阻碍了生产力的发展，在思想上导致僵化，妨碍人民和基层积极性的发挥。 We used to copy foreign models mechanically,which only hampered the development of our productive forces, induced ideological rigidly and kept the people and grassroots units from taking any initiative. 8. 中国与东盟各国或山水相连，或隔海相望，在悠久的交往中，人民之间形成了深厚的传统友谊。 Joined together by mountains and rivers or facing with other across the sea, China and ASEAN countries have developed a profound traditional friendship among the people in the course of their age-old contacts and exchanges. 9.我们正处在世纪之交的重要历史时刻，应该以长远的战略眼光审视和处理双方关系，建立中国与东盟面向二十一世纪的睦邻互信伙伴关系。

In fact, mankind is not biologically programmed for violent behaviors like war.
