楊校長，謝謝你。可是我們在上海我應該說家鄉話，儂好。這么多人，今天就是太好了，美中關系30年，這個時刻從雙邊地區和全球的角度來說，最適合進行一場好的交談，這種活動在中國沒有先例。

What a great turnout, this timing could not be better for a good, open conversation bilatrally, regionaly, openly, globaly on this 30th anniversary year of US-China relations. And this is the first ever townhall meeting format by a US president in China.

我們兩國元首具體說過，他們要推動一個積極建設性全面的關系。

Our two presidents have specificaly stated that they want to promote a positive, constuctive and comprehensive relationship.

如果沒有美中兩國的合作，幾乎沒有哪個全球性挑戰能得到解決。

Today virtually no glbal challenge can be solved without the United States and China cooperating.

我們面臨的挑戰是把我們的交往提到一個更高的水平，有誰比我們更高層領導人更適合參加我們的討論呢？

The challenge before us is to find ways to move our engagement to a higher, stategic plane, so who better to join us than the person who can speak at the very highest level of government on the subjects.

那我很榮幸向你們介紹第44任美國總統巴拉克奧巴馬。

Ladies and gentlemen, I give the 44th president of United States, President Barack Obama.
