第一題：高考
What special day is today！ You know the high school I pass every day。 On my way to work this morning， I saw a lot of policemen around the school。 It was quite unusual。 Crowds of anxious-looking parents were waiting outside the school gate。 Did something happen？
高考
哦，今天是高考。知道中國的高考嗎？就是每年六月，全國大學入學統考。這所學校是一個考場。對有高中畢業生的家庭，這一天非常重要。這一天，不僅有警力維持秩序，學校附近的建築工地都必須停工，降低噪音。一些家長甚至頭一天就在附近酒店訂了房間，為的是讓孩子能休息好，第二天就近到考場。
Oh yeah。 I heard the Gaokao is highly competitive here in China。 We have something similar in the US， but one can take it more than once and choose the best results to apply for a university。 I remember seeing a video on WeChat about a Gaokao prep school in Southern China。 It was unbelievable。 A huge school specializes in preparing students who failed the exam the previous year， like a mass production factory。
你說的那個學校，我也知道，叫毛坦廠，全國有名。去年有10000多考生呢。在中國，很多人相信，高考可以決定一個年輕人的命運，所以家長都想讓自己的孩子能考好。為了孩子能考上好大學，他們是不惜一切代價的。
Why have these exams become so competitive？ Isn‘t there any better way for students to receive a college education in China？ Just imagine all the students spending one whole year working for this one exam。 That must be hard for them and their families。
中國有中國的國情啊。儘管高考並不完美，但在中國，已經是最嚴格、最透明的考試。對於中國千千萬萬的年輕人來說，無論你出身高低、有錢沒錢，高考都是通向大學最公平、最有效的途徑。
第二題：愛爾蘭
Ireland has a family-based dairy industry with an emphasis on safety and harmony with nature。 In 2015 Ireland beat out New Zealand to become the second largest supplier of infant milk powder to China。 Many Chinese friends asked me what makes Irish dairy products stand apart from those of other countries。 Well， Ireland is a natural location for the dairy industry。 It has a mild climate and it’s covered in green grass， which means animals feed on natural sources and they‘re outdoors 90% of the year。
If you look at a map of Europe， Ireland is on the very edge of the continent。 Our air and water doesn’t come from the east， from industrialized Europe。 The grass-based nature of Ireland‘s pastures is very important。 The regulatory control of the industry is very tight。 Our farmers do not try to escape regulation because everybody values our reputation as being a producer of top-quality and safe food。
In 2014， Chinese government inspectors came to Ireland and inspected our dairy industry。 They gave top marks to Ireland。 This has boosted our reputation in China， especially among Chinese parents in regard to infant milk powder。 Chinese consumers are increasingly aware that Ireland is a perfect source for top-quality， safe dairy products。 China is now Ireland’s second largest dairy market in the world。
Irish food and beverage exports to China have also been growing from 100 million euros in 2010 to 850 million euros in 2016。 Having said that， I want you to know that cooperation is a two-way street。 In recent years there‘s been a sharp increase in Chinese investment in Ireland。 I’m especially looking at two sectors where Ireland offers a very excellent platform for Chinese corporations to invest。 The first one is ICT， Which means Information and communications technology。 Nine of the world‘s top ten ICT corporations have already invested in Ireland。 There is a growing number of Chinese corporations investing in Ireland’s ICT。
Secondly， financial services。 Ireland is one of the largest financial centers in the European Union。 More than half of all commercial aircraft leased in the world today are leased from Ireland。 There are many other areas of banking and financial services that we believe will be increasingly attractive to Chinese companies。
第三題：殘疾人
我很榮幸出席今天的社會論壇。中國有8500多萬殘疾人，對於殘疾人的人權保障，我有很多想法與大家分享。我是一個殘疾人，我5歲時因病致殘，從此再也沒能站起來。那時的我因為殘疾無法上學，我感到非常孤獨。
但是，我決心要挑戰自我，於是開始了自學。多年後，1981年，我得到了一份工作，因為那時的國際殘疾人年促進了人們對殘疾人價值的認知，中國郵局還發行了國際殘疾人年的特種郵票。
二十多年來，中國殘疾人的生活狀況得到了很大改善。最近十年裡，中國在立法保障殘疾人權益方面，在殘疾人的醫療、教育、就業方面，都取得了巨大的進步。
我堅定地認為，保障殘疾人人權就要從殘疾人的實際需求做起，當殘疾人的需要得到滿足，人權保障這句話對他們才有意義。2008年至今，我是中國殘疾人組織的主席。我一直在做一件非常重要的工作。
我和同事們到中國城市和鄉村瞭解基層，特別是貧困地區殘疾人的生活狀況和需求，並向政府提出有關的政策建議。2015年，我們開展了針對2600萬註冊殘疾人的專項調查，蒐集詳細的資料，這些大資料對於政府開展殘疾人研究和制定相關政策都具有重要意義。
