　　澳門(mén)，南海之濱一顆閃耀的明珠，以她的風(fēng)采、滄桑和輝煌，更以1999年12月20日這個(gè)不同尋常的日子，吸引著全世界的目光。

　　自古以來(lái)，澳門(mén)就是中國(guó)的領(lǐng)土，兒女世世代代在這里繁衍生息。

　　早在80年代，世紀(jì)偉人鄧小平就提出了"一國(guó)兩制"的偉大構(gòu)想。1997年7月1日，人民共和國(guó)恢復(fù)對(duì)香港行使主權(quán)。今年，澳門(mén)又將徹底結(jié)束外國(guó)管治，回到祖國(guó)懷抱，這是民族的又一件歷史盛事，它標(biāo)志著中國(guó)人民向著祖國(guó)統(tǒng)一的偉大目標(biāo)又邁出了重大的步。澳門(mén)的明天一定會(huì)更好美好。

　　Macao, a sparking pearl in the coast of China, catches the world’s attention for her charm, her experiences of various changes and her bright achievements, and moreover, for the unusual date of December 20, 1999.

　　Macao has been the territory of China ever since the ancient times. The Chinese people have been living and working there for generations.

　　Early in the 80s, Mr. Deng Xiaoping, one of the great figures of the century, put forward the bold concept of "One Country, Two Systems". On July 1, 1997, the People’s Republic of China resumed her sovereignty over Hong Kong. This year, Macao will completely get rid of the foreign regime and return to motherland. This is another great historical event for the Chinese people. It symbolizes another big step for the Chinese people on their way towards the great goal of the country’s reunification. Macao’s future is sure to be even brighter.
