Government / Politics
Chinese term or phrase: 看强大
在宣传贯彻科学发展观，构建和谐社会，践行社会主义荣辱观，建设社会主义新农村等一系列重大主题宣传中，充分发挥网络传播的优势，在网上形成了“再发展、看强大、讲科学、话和谐”的正面舆论强势。
I have 'continue to develop, emphasize on science, speak about harmony' for the rest. You are welcomed to comment on the ones I have as well. Thanks.

Explanation:
To develop further, observe/look at the powerful, emphasize on science, speak about harmony

The way I understand is to observe the powerful (nations)inorder to learn from their experiences.

neutral  Fang Sheng: I think it means "to look at our powerful side" (instead of only the weak and the dark sides), as a way to creat positive image

agree  franksf: how about 'aim high'?
17 mins
  -> thanks, agree
agree  Will Matter: 'Aim high' sounds good to me. 'Raise the bar', 'never settle for less' 'do your best'.
1 hr
  -> thanks, I hear people say aim big, aim high all the time. Honestly, couldn't tell the difference, it takes a native speaker to tell the subtleties. aim big, I guess, sounds too colloquial?

highlighting the positive side of China's further development, great vitality...


Explanation:
I am afraid I have to render it as a sentence:
to launch a favourable media campaign on internet, highlighting the positive side of China's further development, great vitality, scientific approach and harmonious society.

Here, Highlighting is used to generalize ‘看、讲、话’

Huang Tingting, you are right, this report is about internet as a media. The report listed top 10 news of 2006, including: 科学发展观，构建和谐社会, 经济社会发展的宏伟蓝图, 两岸经贸论坛,青藏铁路全线建成通车,2006年中国股市大牛市行情完美收官, etc.
So far what I can see from this text is 'great vitality'.
