　　英譯中

　　On August 6, 1997, when 55,000 people gathered in Hiroshima to commemorate the 46th anniversary of the devastating bombing that killed an estimated 140,000 people and brought World War Ⅱ to a sudden halt, the city’s newly elected mayor broke with tradition by adding a few uncustomay lines to the annual Peace Declaration. It should also be recalled, he declared, that "Japan inflicted great suffering and despair on the peoples of Asia and the Pacific during its reign of colonial domination and war. For this we are truly sorry." Noting that this year marks the 50th anniversary of the Japaness assalt on the U.S., he added, "Remembering all too well the horror of this war, starting with the attack on Pearl Harbor and ending with the atombombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, we are determined anew to work for world peace."

　　Usually, in Japan, when people discuss the war at all, they speak of vicitimization: their own victimization by the militarists who led the country into battle and by the Americans who bombed their cities. The suffering inflicted by the imperial army on the peoples of Asia is ignored, as is Japna’s aggression in China and at Pearl Harbor. The appealing image of Japan the victim has no room for the underside of Japan the aggressor.

　　【參考譯文】

　　1997年8月6日，55000人在廣島集會(huì)，紀(jì)念原子彈事件46周年。毀滅性的原子彈使約14萬(wàn)人喪命，遏止了二次大戰(zhàn)的戰(zhàn)火。廣島市新當(dāng)選的市長(zhǎng)打破傳統(tǒng)，在年度《和平宣言》中增加了不尋常內(nèi)容。他宣稱人們應(yīng)該牢記"日本在亞洲和太平洋地區(qū)實(shí)行侵略和殖民統(tǒng)治期間，給這些地區(qū)的人民帶來(lái)了苦難和絕望，為此我們深感內(nèi)疚。"談及50年前日本襲擊美國(guó)事件，他補(bǔ)充道："對(duì)可怕的二戰(zhàn)，我們?nèi)杂洃洩q新，從日本偷襲珍珠港開始，到廣島、長(zhǎng)崎原子彈爆炸告終。我們決心為世界和平繼續(xù)奮斗。"

　　在日本，只要提到戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)，就會(huì)講到受害，講他們是軍國(guó)主義的受害者，軍國(guó)主義把國(guó)家引入戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng);他們是美國(guó)的受害者，美國(guó)向他們的城市投擲了原子彈。然而他們閉口不談皇軍給亞洲人民帶來(lái)的災(zāi)難、也不談對(duì)華侵略、偷襲珍珠港。日本作為戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)的受害者，形象很感人，從而掩蓋了其侵略者的一面。

　　澳門，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.
