守职而不废 处义而不回

not…and…的否定式中被否定的往往是and后面的那一部分。译为unwaveringly carry out更为准确。

好！blood ties既传达了“骨肉至亲”的含义，又多了一层“血脉相连”之意，用以表达大陆和台湾人民的情谊很恰当。

这句话出自司空图的《二十四诗品》，强调创新的可能性和重要性。由于总理此处谈得主要是“改革”，译者在这里灵活将古诗的核心含义处理为“reform(改革)”，非常到位。

行百里者半九十。

9 P  a4 D4 W' n. Z这里译者理解不够准确。原文是说“百里之行的人，走到九十里，只算走了一半。”是表示起步容易，坚持到最后却难，而并非“半途而废”的意思。

呵呵，就这些古文，能把中文意思理解清楚就不容易了，现场翻译成英文真的要很高的水平。
现在明白为什么有些英语专业研究生的翻译考题是那么“文绉绉的”了。

翻译是一门高深而痛苦的学问。
