旧金山见证了中美两国人民百年交往的历史。158年前，大批中国工人来到美国，修建连接东西海岸的太平洋铁路，筚路蓝缕，在旧金山建起了西半球历史最悠久的唐人街。从这里出发，中美两国之间发展起7600亿美元双边贸易和累计2600多亿美元双向投资，建立起284对友好省州和友好城市关系，最多每周300多个航班和每年500多万人次的相互往来。这是全世界近四分之一人口共同绘就的宏伟画卷。

San Francisco has borne witness to exchanges between the Chinese and American peoples for over a century. A hundred and fifty-eight years ago, a large number of Chinese workers came all the way to the United States to build the first transcontinental railroad, and established in San Francisco the oldest Chinatown in the Western Hemisphere. From here, China and the United States have made many achievements — $760 billion of annual bilateral trade and over $260 billion of two-way investment, 284 pairs of sister provinces/states and sister cities, and over 300 scheduled flights every week and over five million travels every year at peak time. These extraordinary accomplishments were made jointly by our peoples accounting for nearly one quarter of the global population.

旧金山见证了中美建设美好世界的努力。78年前，在携手战胜法西斯主义和军国主义之后，中美共同参与发起旧金山制宪会议，推动建立了联合国，中国第一个在《联合国宪章》上签字。从这里出发，二战后的国际秩序得以建立，100多个国家相继获得了民族独立，几十亿人口最终摆脱了贫困，世界和平发展进步的力量不断成长。这是各国人民和国际社会携手取得的硕果。

San Francisco has also borne witness to the efforts by China and the United States in building a better world. Seventy-eight years ago, after jointly defeating fascism and militarism, our two countries initiated together with others the San Francisco Conference, which helped found the United Nations, and China was the first country to sign the UN Charter. Starting from San Francisco, the postwar international order was established. Over 100 countries have gained independence one after another. Several billion people have eventually shaken off poverty. The forces for world peace, development and progress have grown stronger. This has been the main fruit jointly achieved by people of all countries and the international community.

第二次世界大战时期，我们两国共同为和平和正义而战。陈纳德将军带领美国志愿者奔赴中国战场，组成了著名的飞虎队。他们不仅直接对日本侵略者作战，还建起了向中国运送急需物资的驼峰航线，1000多名中美机组人员牺牲在这条航线上。日本偷袭珍珠港后，1942年美国空军16架B-25轰炸机奔袭日本，由于油料不足，杜立特中校等飞行员在中国弃机跳伞，中国军民奋勇救助，日军竟因此屠杀了25万中国平民。

During World War II, our two countries fought side by side for peace and justice. Headed by General Claire Lee Chennault, a group of American volunteers, known as the Flying Tigers, went to the battlefield in China. They not only engaged in direct combats fighting Japanese aggressors, but also created "The Hump" airlift to transport much-needed supplies to China. More than 1,000 Chinese and American airmen lost their lives on this air route. After Japan attacked Pearl Harbor, the United States sent 16 B-25 bombers on an air raid to Japan in 1942. Running low on fuel after completing their mission, Lieutenant Colonel James Doolittle and his fellow pilots parachuted in China. They were rescued by Chinese troops and local civilians. But some 250,000 civilian Chinese were killed by Japanese aggressors in retaliation.

中国人民没有忘记飞虎队。我们在重庆专门修建了纪念馆，邀请了1000多名飞虎队老兵及其家属回到中国，我同他们中的一些人也一直有书信往来。最近，飞虎队老兵、103岁高龄的莫耶和98岁高龄的麦克马伦来到中国，登上了长城，受到中国人民热烈欢迎。

The Chinese people never forget the Flying Tigers. We built a Flying Tigers museum in Chongqing, and invited over 1,000 Flying Tigers veterans and their families to visit China. I have kept in touch with some of them through letters. Most recently, 103-year-old Harry Moyer and 98-year-old Mel McMullen, both Flying Tigers veterans, went back to China. They visited the Great Wall, and were warmly received by the Chinese people.

美国人民也没有忘记殊死营救美国军人的中国人民。浙江衢州有一个杜立特行动纪念馆，当年获救的美国军人的后代经常来到这里，向见义勇为的中国人民表达敬意。我相信，血与火铸造的中美两国人民友谊一定能够代代相传。

The American people, on their part, always remember the Chinese who risked their lives to save American pilots. Offspring of those American pilots often visit the Doolittle Raid Memorial Hall in Quzhou of Zhejiang province to pay tribute to the Chinese people for their heroic and valorous efforts. These stories fill me with firm confidence that the friendship between our two peoples, which has stood the test of blood and fire, will be passed on from generation to generation.

1971年，美国乒乓球代表团来到北京，小球转动了大球。此后不久，曼斯菲尔德先生率领的第一个美国国会议员代表团来了，包括艾奥瓦州州长罗伯特·雷在内的第一个美国州长代表团来了，许多工商界人士也来了，掀起了中美友好交往的浪潮。

In 1971, the US table tennis team visited Beijing — a small ball moved the globe. Not long after that, Mr Mike Mansfield led the first US Congressional delegation to China. This was followed by the first governors' delegation including Iowa Governor Robert Ray and then many business delegations, forming waves of friendly exchanges.

我第一次访问美国时，住在艾奥瓦州的德沃切克夫妇家中，我还记得门牌号是邦尼街2911号。这是我同美国民众首次面对面接触，也是一段我和美国人民共同生活的难忘经历。对我来说，他们就是美国。我也发现，两国虽然历史文化、社会制度、发展道路不同，但人民都善良友好、勤劳务实，都爱祖国、爱家庭、爱生活，都对彼此抱有好感和兴趣。

During my first visit to the United States, I stayed at the Dvorchaks in Iowa. I still remember their address — 2911 Bonnie Drive. That was my first face-to-face contact with the Americans. The days I spent with them are unforgettable. For me, they represent America. I have found that although our two countries are different in history, culture and social system and have embarked on different development paths, our two peoples are both kind, friendly, hardworking and down-to-earth. We both love our countries, our families and our lives, and we both are friendly toward each other and are interested in each other.

不久前，华盛顿国家动物园的3只大熊猫回到中国。我听说很多美国民众特别是孩子们依依不舍，专门到动物园去送行。我还了解到，圣迭戈动物园和加州人民热切期盼大熊猫能重返加州。大熊猫是中美人民的友谊使者。我们愿继续同美国开展大熊猫保护合作，努力满足加州人民的愿望，增进两国人民友好感情。

Recently, the three pandas at Smithsonian's National Zoo in Washington DC have returned to China. I was told that many American people, especially children, were really reluctant to say goodbye to the pandas, and went to the zoo to see them off. I also learned that the San Diego Zoo and the Californians very much look forward to welcoming pandas back. Pandas have long been envoys of friendship between the Chinese and American peoples. We are ready to continue our cooperation with the United States on panda conservation, and do our best to meet the wishes of the Californians so as to deepen the friendly ties between our two peoples.
