Public policy must remain focused on the very real possibility that the apparent easing in the economy’s decline may be followed by little or no growth for several quarters and there could possibly be another negative turn. One of the risks is that the U.S. is very connected to the rest of the world, most of which is in severe recession. The global economy could be a significant drag on U.S. growth. If in fact the economy remains stuck in first gear for far too long, this will exacerbate the problems with unemployment and mortgage foreclosures. In the face of this risk, economic and financial policy over the next few months should emphasize, first, the execution of existing initiatives, many of which remain in early stages, and, second, contingency plans in case things go badly. We support the efforts by the administration and Congress to evaluate the causes of the crisis and propose potential regulatory changes. But it is vital to keep the main focus of policymakers on dealing with the current crisis and make sure this really has been resolved before enacting major reforms designed for the future. | Translation - Chinese
经济衰退明显放缓之后，某些行业可能不但不会出现增长，反而还会愈显低迷，公共政策决不能对此掉以轻心。风险之一就是美国与世界其它地区联系紧密，而这些地区大都陷于严重衰退之中，全球经济可能严重阻碍美国经济增长。如果经济长期受滞，那么失业问题和抵押止赎问题则将愈加恶化。要应对风险，未来数月内的经济政策和金融政策都应强调两点：第一、加强执行现有规划，因为这些规划多数尚处初级阶段；第二、制定应变计划，从而确保能够在事态恶化之前采取措施。政府与国会评估危机起因，并提出将来可行的监管改革举措，我们对此深表赞同。但是，决策者应该优先处理当前危机，确保在今后进行重大改革时，当前危机已消失殆尽。 | English to Chinese: Statue of Liberty 自由女神

The Bedloe’s Island event was only opened to dignitaries and guests. When the ceremony began at 3.15 pm, salvos were fired from the forts on Governor’s Island, while steam whistles pierced the air. Prayers and orations followed. Senator William M. Evarts gave the presentation address. In the middle of this, he took an unexpected pause, and Bartholdi’s assistant, thinking Evarts had finished, flashed a signal to Bartholdi, who was watching from high up in the crown. Seeing it, he immediately released a cord and the French flag dropped from the goddess’s face. The cannons began wildly firing off salutes. When the worst of the din had died down, Senator Evarts finished his remarks and President Grover Cleveland rose to accept the statue, saying:
We shall not forget that Liberty has here made her home, nor shall her chosen altar be neglected. Willing votaries shall constantly keep alive its fires and these shall gleam upon the shores of our sister republic thence and, joined with answering rays a stream of light shall pierce the darkness of ignorance and man’s oppression until Liberty lightens the world. | Translation - Chinese
贝罗德岛盛典仅向显贵要人和贵客开放。下午 3 点 15 分盛典开始，礼炮从总督岛的堡垒里发射而出，同时汽笛划破长空。随后举行了祈祷和致辞。参议员威廉•马克斯韦尔•埃瓦茨发表了演讲。演讲过程中，他意外地停顿了一下，巴特勒迪的助手以为他已经演讲完毕，于是就向站在高处的皇冠里向下张望的巴特勒迪打出了信号。看到信号后，巴特勒迪立即松开了一根系绳，然后法国国旗就向下铺展在了女神的脸部。一时间礼炮齐鸣。喧闹结束之后，埃瓦茨参议员结束了他的演说。格罗夫•克里夫兰总统起立接受了自由女神像，他说道：
“我们永远不应忘记这里是自由女神的故乡，也不应怠慢为她选择的圣坛。自告奋勇的支持者将使自由女神的火炬长明，火炬之光将照耀我们友邦的海岸。回应的光芒将穿透愚昧无知的黑暗，冲破人类遭受的压迫，直至自由照亮世界。”

The form of a successor election petition, circulation, and procedure for determining the validity and sufficiency of a petition shall be as provided by law.

如果州长罢免请愿书已呈交给州选举委员会，则符合担任州长资格的人可通过请愿书提请其本人出任州长，此请愿书应由数量等于提请政党候选人担任州长的请愿书要求的数量的选民签署，且在罢免请愿书呈交给州选举委员会后 50 天内由请愿选民签署。请愿书的形式、传阅和确定请愿书有效性与充分性的流程均应由法律规定。如果继任选举请愿书有效且充分，则州选举委员会应在呈交州长罢免请愿书后 100 天之内核证此请愿书。提名其作为政党候选人的候选人的姓名应在州选举委员会发起的、与子款 (b) 中规定的针对罢免问题进行的特殊选举同期进行的特殊预选（如有必要）中提交给选民。继任选举候选人的姓名必须在举行特殊预选后 60 天内或在法律规定的日期在由州选举委员会发起的特殊继任选举中提交给选民。 | Chinese to English: 销售 Distribution

营销多个产品系列的批发商必须管理数千种产品、海量产品属性信息和其它参考数据，而令人头疼的是，这些基本数据通常都存储在不同系统中，数据表也相互独立，无论是内部系统，还是与供应商建立的外部系统，莫不如此。
• 更了解采购项目数据、提高对需求变动的响应能力、及时得到原材料供货，从而降低存货成本。
• 增强与制造商、供应商和零售商的协作。
• 减少改错和清理冗余数据的耗时，降低行政成本。
• 简化或自动化创建、版本控制和搜索产品数据的流程。
• 提高采购效率、资源获取能力和购买力。
• 减少维护数据所使用的信息技术。

Wholesale distributors that market diverse product lines must manage thousands of products and massive amounts of product attributes and other reference data. Unfortunately, this master data often resides in multiple systems and on disjointed spreadsheets, internally as well as externally with suppliers.
• Reduce inventory costs by having a clearer view of procurement item data, improved response to changes in demand and better on-time sourcing of raw materials.
• Improve collaboration with manufacturers, suppliers and retailers.
• Lower administrative costs by spending less time correcting errors and cleansing data.
• Streamline and automate processes for creating, versioning and searching for product data.
• Boost procurement efficiencies, sourcing capabilities and buying power.
• Reduce IT's involvement in data maintenance.

Remarques :
N’arrêtez pas la machine tant qu’une image n’a pas été laminée car ceci peut entraîner des marques d’arrêt sur l’impression à la sortie.
Enlevez le plateau de support et l’affichage de l’arrière de la pelliculeuse puis taillez l’affiche de publicité à la taille requise.
L’affichage doit rester à plat pendant au moins 4 heures après la lamination. Si il est enroulé, le côté laminé doit être à l’extérieur.
Une atmosphère sans poussière est essentielle à l’obtention d’une lamination de bonne qualité. | Chinese to French: 海运公司操作程序 Procedure Operationnelle Compagnie Maritime
