Sustainable waste management requires organizations to design products that use fewer materials; use processes that produce less waste; put waste to good use through re-use, recycling, composting and using waste as fuel; and to choose products made from recycled materials. In waste and resources management, Enviros provides strategic, technical and economic solutions throughout the UK, Ireland and the rest of Europe.

可持續(xù)廢物管理要求各個(gè)公司和組織設(shè)計(jì)出使用材料比較少的產(chǎn)品，采用產(chǎn)生廢物比較少的流程，通過再次使用、回收使用、堆化土料、變廢料為燃料的方法，利用廢物，并且選用回收使用的材料作為原材料。在廢物和資源管理方面，Enviros提供戰(zhàn)略、技術(shù)和經(jīng)濟(jì)解決方案，在英國、愛爾蘭和歐洲各地服務(wù)。

We have an enviable record of the environmental management of land and water assets for major landholders. With an increasing need to regenerate "brown field" sites, a solutions-based approach to land and water resources has created an unrivalled reputation in the field of contaminated land, redevelopment and its associated disciplines. Decisions on environmental protection require knowledge of how potential hazards would be affected by changes in management practices.

我們擁有令人羨慕的業(yè)績，在為大面積土地?fù)碛姓咛峁┩恋睾退Y產(chǎn)環(huán)保管理方面，成績卓著。由于治理“棕色土地”的需要不斷增加，以解決方案為主的土地和水資源管理為我們帶來了無可比擬的聲譽(yù)，在受污染土地、重新開發(fā)，以及相關(guān)領(lǐng)域都出類拔萃。考慮環(huán)保方面的決定時(shí)，需要知道潛在危害與改變管理做法之間的關(guān)系。

With respect to storage and disposal facilities for radio-active and other hazardous wastes, it is crucial to understand how contaminants move through the geosphere and how long-term performance of disposal facilities can be affected by geological and climatic changes over time. Alongside its UK offices, the group has an office in Barcelona which serves the main local and international waste management agencies as well as key industrial multinational companies.

至于放射性和其他有害廢物的儲存和處理設(shè)施，關(guān)鍵是了解污染物如何在陸界中移動(dòng)，以及這些處理設(shè)施的性能會(huì)隨著時(shí)間的推移，受到地質(zhì)和氣候的影響。除了英國辦事處之外，我們在巴塞羅那有個(gè)辦事處，服務(wù)于當(dāng)?shù)氐暮蛧H上的大型廢物管理機(jī)構(gòu)，以及主要跨國工業(yè)公司。

單元27 富戴勞公司(英音)

In 1884 Joseph and Jules Fuerst established in London an international trading company. It traded as Fuerst Brothers until 1957 when it was acquired by Mrs. Eileen Day Lawson. Trading thereafter as Fuerst Day Lawson the company prospered and expanded into many of the fields covered by the present Group.

1884年，Joseph和Jules Fuerst在倫敦成立了一家國際貿(mào)易公司。以富爾斯特兄弟為名營業(yè)到1957年，然后被戴•勞森太太收購。收購后，以富爾斯特•戴•勞森為名，公司繁榮發(fā)展，擴(kuò)展到現(xiàn)有集團(tuán)經(jīng)營的許多領(lǐng)域。

Organic growth was supplemented by the acquisition of other trading companies in related product areas including Union Merchants Overseas in 1968, Fox Roy Merchants and R. Verney in 1972 and J. C. Duffus in 1978. During the 1980's separate trading identities were created. An increasing involvement in fruit juices led to the formation of Fuerst Day Lawson Citrus and was followed by moves into generic pharmaceuticals, food additives and honey.

自我增長之外，我們還收購了其他相關(guān)產(chǎn)品領(lǐng)域的貿(mào)易公司，其中包括1968年收購聯(lián)合海外商品公司，1972年收購Fox Roy商品公司和R. Verney公司，1978年收購J.C.Duffus公司。80年代，建立了不同的貿(mào)易品牌。果汁方面的業(yè)務(wù)越來越多，于是成立了富爾斯特•戴•勞森柑橘公司，接著進(jìn)入普通醫(yī)藥、食品添加劑和蜂蜜行業(yè)。

In 1984 more open policies in China encouraged a substantial development of the Group's business with the world's most populous country and a representative office in Shanghai was opened. In 1987 and after 14 years in the business, Maurice Day Lawson became Group Chief Executive and the majority shareholder. In 1992 the Group acquired part of the activities of the London Export Corporation, adding a liaison office in Beijing to its existing office in Shanghai.

1984年，中國改革開放，促進(jìn)了我們集團(tuán)與這個(gè)世界上人口最多的國家的業(yè)務(wù)，我們在上海成立了代表處。1987年，在工作14年之后，莫里斯•戴•勞森成為首席執(zhí)行官和多數(shù)股票股東。1992年，我們集團(tuán)收購了倫敦出口總公司的部分業(yè)務(wù)，在北京增設(shè)了聯(lián)絡(luò)處。

By the end of 1996 annual sales exceeded 220 million US dollars. Following significant growth it was decided in 1997 to simplify the operational and trading structure of the Group into divisions under the Fuerst Day Lawson name. The Holding Company, Fuerst Day Lawson Holdings Ltd, provides strategic direction and other services to its subsidiary companies. Its principal subsidiary, Fuerst Day Lawson Ltd, comprises six specialist divisions.

1996年底，我們的營業(yè)額已經(jīng)超過了2.2億美元。在強(qiáng)力增長之后，我們在1997年決定簡化集團(tuán)的運(yùn)營和貿(mào)易結(jié)構(gòu)，在富爾斯特•戴•勞森的名下分部經(jīng)營?？毓晒緸楦粻査固?bull;戴•勞森持股有限公司，負(fù)責(zé)向子公司提供戰(zhàn)略方向及其他服務(wù)。其主要子公司富爾斯特•戴•勞森有限公司由六個(gè)專業(yè)部門組成。

While each division has its own logistics department providing contract administration, it can also draw on Group services. These include the Group's leverage in the international freight market, giving competitive costs of carriage, and a tracking system which can identify the location of a single container and determine its shipment and arrival time to within 24 hours. The Group also provides centralized computer and communications services supported by a team of Information Technology experts.

每個(gè)部門都有自己的物流部，負(fù)責(zé)合同執(zhí)行上的管理工作，但也可以獲得集團(tuán)服務(wù)的支持。其中包括集團(tuán)在國際運(yùn)輸市場中的力量，可以提供有競爭力的運(yùn)費(fèi);還有一個(gè)跟蹤系統(tǒng)，可以確定某一個(gè)集裝箱的地點(diǎn)、起運(yùn)和到達(dá)時(shí)間，誤差不超過24小時(shí)。我們集團(tuán)還提供中央電腦和通訊服務(wù)，由一組信息技術(shù)專家負(fù)責(zé)。

The key to FDL's success is its people, skills, knowledge and experience. Over 50% of the account executives and directors have been with the Group for more than ten years. The successful selection, development and training of personnel is critical to FDL's ability to provide a high standard of service to its customers and to respond t otheir needs. The Group therefore provides bonus, profit share and incentive schemes to aid staff motivation, to strengthen personal commitment and to build teams which embrace with enthusiasm both personal and corporate objectives.

富戴勞成功的關(guān)鍵在于我們的員工、技能、知識和經(jīng)驗(yàn)。多半數(shù)的客戶經(jīng)理和董事都已經(jīng)在集團(tuán)內(nèi)工作了十多年。成功地選擇、發(fā)展、培訓(xùn)人員對富戴勞很關(guān)鍵，使我們能夠?yàn)轭櫩吞峁└咚疁?zhǔn)的服務(wù)，對他們的需要做出反應(yīng)。我們集團(tuán)提供獎(jiǎng)金、利潤分成和獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)措施，提高員工的積極性，加強(qiáng)員工的忠誠度，建立熱情擁抱個(gè)人和公司目標(biāo)的團(tuán)隊(duì)。

As a market leader, FDL is able to attract quality staff. It actively seeks out those who are energetic, persistent, and sensitive to other nations' cultures and good communicator. The FDL account executive is enthusiastic, committed and ready to board an airplane at a moment's notice to manage the consequences of floods and droughts, local politics and customs, and the complexities of currencies and rising markets in order to deliver security to FDL customers 365 days a year.

作為市場龍頭企業(yè)，富戴勞還能吸引高質(zhì)量的員工。我們積極尋找那些干勁大、堅(jiān)持不懈、對其他民族的文化敏感、善于溝通的員工。富戴勞的客戶經(jīng)理都積極熱情，忠于職守，隨時(shí)可以跳上飛機(jī)，幾乎不需要提前通知，前往現(xiàn)場，處理洪水、干旱、地方政治和海關(guān)干擾、復(fù)雜的匯率、看漲的市場，以便為公司的顧客帶來安全感。一年365天，天天如此。

Individual training programmes are regularly monitored and updated to ensure that staff widen their knowledge of trading, business and management practices. Staff als are encouraged to keep abreast of innovations in the markets in which they operate. Investment in the development of personnel at all levels is one of the processes which enables FDL to maintain a high quality service for its customers and to ensure its own continued success and growth.

個(gè)人培訓(xùn)計(jì)劃得到定期監(jiān)督、修訂，以確保員工能擴(kuò)大知識，更多地了解貿(mào)易、商業(yè)和管理上的做法。我們還鼓勵(lì)員工隨時(shí)掌握他們業(yè)務(wù)所在的市場中的革新。在個(gè)人發(fā)展的各個(gè)層次投資，這種過程使得富戴能夠不斷為顧客提供高質(zhì)量服務(wù)，并確保自身不為獲得成功，不斷發(fā)展。

單元28 廣東招商介紹

我很高興今天有機(jī)會(huì)與各位朋友同聚一堂，共商經(jīng)貿(mào)合作。我愿向各位朋友介紹廣東的經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展情況以及未來經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展的戰(zhàn)略和規(guī)劃，希望有助于增進(jìn)各位朋友對廣東的了解。

I'm delighted to have the opportunity today to be here with you and to talk about economic and trade relationships I'd like to tell you about the economic development in Guangdong, and our strategy and plans for the future. I hope this will help you to understand Guangdong better.

廣東是中國大陸最南端的省份，擁有17.8萬平方公里的土地和7700多萬人口，瀕臨南海，毗鄰港澳，僑胞眾多，人才匯集，對外交往便利，對外貿(mào)易歷史悠久，全省形成了多層次、寬領(lǐng)域、全方位的對外開放格局。

Guangdong is at the southern end of China, covering an area of 178,000 square kilometers, with a population of over 77 million. We are next to the South China Sea, close to Hong Kong and Macao SARs, with a large population of overseas Chinese. We have an abundant supply of talents, excellent external communications and a long history in foreign trade. Our contact with the outside world is multi-leveled and multi-dimensional.

經(jīng)過20多年的改革開放，廣東已從原來一個(gè)經(jīng)濟(jì)比較落后的邊陲省份，一躍成為大陸經(jīng)濟(jì)最發(fā)達(dá)的省份之一。全省GDP由1978年的185.85億元增至2001年的10556.47億元，增長57倍，地方財(cái)政增長15.1倍，社會(huì)消費(fèi)增長39.6倍，城鄉(xiāng)居民儲蓄存款余額增長428.8倍。

After 20 years of reform and opening up, Guangdong has developed from a relatively backward border province, to one of the most developed economies in China. Our GPD grew from 18.5 billion yuan in 1978 to 1055 billion yuan in 2001, a 57-fold increase. Our tax revenue increased by over 15 folds, consumption 39.6 times, savings 428.8 times, savings 428.8 times.

By the end of 2..1, we had invested over 40 billion yuan in the urban infrastructure. Our water supply capacity was more than 2.37 million cubic meters per day. There were 868.94 kilometers of new roads in the city and 135 new bridges. Our gas utilization had reached 93.93%. Our green coverage was 33.73%. Guangzhou has been awarded the title of "International Garden City" by the International Garden Association.

廣東基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施有了長足的發(fā)展，公路、高速公路、民航旅客運(yùn)輸量、吞吐量均居全國首位。2001年交通運(yùn)輸建設(shè)投資271.24億元，建成了一大批公路、航道、站場、港口、碼頭等設(shè)施。全省擁有一類口岸51個(gè)，二類口岸99個(gè)。

Guangdong has come a long way in its infrastructure development. It's number one in China in highways, motorways, passenger and cargo transport. In 2001, we invested 27 billion yuan in our transport system, developed many roads, routes, stations, ports and docks. We have 51 class-one ports and 99 class-two ports.

對外貿(mào)易。2001年全省進(jìn)出口總額1764.95億美元，傳統(tǒng)出口市場穩(wěn)步發(fā)展，開拓新興市場初見成效，對美國、歐盟、日本市場出口穩(wěn)步增長;對非洲、東盟、印度、俄羅斯出口的增長更快。

In terms of foreign trade, our total exports in 2001 stood at 176.495 billion US dollars. We have seen steady growth in our traditional export market, and initial results in our newly developed markets. Our exports to the US, EU and Japan have been increasing steadily. Our exports to Africa, ASEAN, India and Russia have been growing even faster.

廣東省十分注重環(huán)境保護(hù)。2001年廣東省建成投產(chǎn)項(xiàng)目“三同時(shí)”執(zhí)行合格率97.8%，建設(shè)項(xiàng)目環(huán)境影響評價(jià)制度執(zhí)行率99.8%，全省五縣被列為國家級生態(tài)示范區(qū)建設(shè)試點(diǎn)縣，城市環(huán)境綜合整治定量考核范圍擴(kuò)大到52個(gè)建制市。

Guangdong takes environmental protection very seriously. In 2001, we invested in the project of "three concurrencies". The rate of implementation has been 97.8%. 99.8% of the development projects have done their environmental impact assessment as required. 5 counties of the province have been included in a pilot project to establish National Ecological Demonstration Areas. The quantitative assessment of the integrated improvement of urban environments has now been extended to cover 52 municipalities.

廣東省已確定了跨世紀(jì)改革和發(fā)展的宏圖，主要是實(shí)施外向帶動(dòng)戰(zhàn)略、科教興粵和可持續(xù)發(fā)展戰(zhàn)略。戰(zhàn)略主要體現(xiàn)在科技先行，教育為本。我們需要吸引大量技術(shù)和人才到廣東，實(shí)行科技和生產(chǎn)緊密結(jié)合，使高新技術(shù)產(chǎn)業(yè)成為廣東經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展的第一增長點(diǎn)。

Guangdong has decided on its blueprint for reform and development in the new century. The core components are the strategy of an externally driven economy, science and education led, and sustainable development. The strategy will be embodied mainly in the priority given to science and technology, and to education. We need to attract a large number of technical and other types of talents to Guangdong, to integrate technology and production, to make hi-tech and new-tech industry the priority area of growth in our economy development.

單元29 惠普公司(美音)

It all began in the garage and a pie shop. In 1939, Stanford University classmates Bill Hewlett and Dave Packard founded HP. The company's first product, built in a Palo Alto garage, was an audio oscillator--an electronic test instrument used y sound engineers. One of HP's first customers was Walt Disney Studios, which purchased eight oscillators to develop and test an innovative sound system for the movie, "Fantasia". Compaq Computer Corporation was formed after a 1982 meeting in a Houston, Texas, pie shop.

一切都從一個(gè)車庫和一個(gè)餡餅店開始。1939年，斯坦福大家的同學(xué)休利特和帕卡德創(chuàng)立了惠普。公司的第一個(gè)產(chǎn)品是在帕洛阿爾托的車庫里生產(chǎn)的，是個(gè)聲擺，是音響技術(shù)員用的電子測試工具?；萜盏脑缙陬櫩椭皇堑纤鼓嶂破瑥S。他們購買了8個(gè)聲擺，用來開發(fā)、測試一種創(chuàng)新的音響系統(tǒng)，用于一部叫《狂想曲》的電影。康柏電腦總公司始創(chuàng)于1982年德州休斯頓的一家餡餅店中的一次會(huì)晤之后。

單元30 福建招商介紹

首先向大家介紹一下我們福建的概況。然后談?wù)劯＝ń窈蟀l(fā)展的主要內(nèi)容。福建是中國加快發(fā)展的重點(diǎn)地區(qū)之一。福建地處中國東南沿海，毗鄰浙江、江西、廣東，與臺灣隔海相望，是中國大陸距離東南亞最近的省份之一。

Firstly, I'd like to give you a general introduction to Fujian. Then, I'll talk about the main activities of our future plans. Fujian is one of the priority development areas of China. It is along the southeast coast of China, bordering Zhejiang, Jiangxi, and Guangdong. It faces Taiwan across the sea. It is one of the closest provinces to Southeast Asia.

福建省是中國與世界交往的重要窗口和基地。境內(nèi)溫暖濕潤，年平均溫度17到21攝氏度。平均降雨量1400到2000毫米。全省土地面積12.14萬平方公里。較大港灣22處，可建萬噸深水港口。

Fujian is an important gateway between China and the rest of the world. Fujian has a mild and humid climate. Temperatures average 17-21 degrees centigrade. The average rainfall is 1,400--2,000mm. Fujian covers an area of 120,140 square kilometers. It has 22 deep ports where ten-thousand-ton docks can be built.

到2000年為止，全省常住人口達(dá)到3470萬人。福建又是著名僑鄉(xiāng)和臺胞祖籍地，旅居海外的華人、華僑達(dá)800多萬人。臺灣同胞中80%祖籍福建。福建省海域遼闊，海岸線長達(dá)3300多公里，有大小島嶼1400多個(gè)。

In the year 2000, Fujian's population stood at 34.7 million. Fujian is well-known as the home for overseas Chinese. It is also the ancestor land for people in Taiwan. More than 8 million overseas Chinese as well as 80% of the people in Taiwan can trace their roots back to Fujian. Fujian has a long coastline of more than 3,300 kilometers with over 1,400 islands both large and small.

福建海域是東海和南海的過渡海區(qū)，屬亞熱帶。水產(chǎn)資源相當(dāng)豐富。全省可作業(yè)的海洋漁場面積12.5萬平方公里。適宜海產(chǎn)品養(yǎng)殖的面積達(dá)2700平方公里。魚類達(dá)500多種，是我國主要產(chǎn)魚區(qū)。

The East China Sea and the South China Sea converge off the coast of Fujian, a subtropical zone with rich fishing resources. 125,000 square kilometers of sea are suitable for fishing. 2,700 square kilometers of sea are suitable for seafood farming. There are over 500 species of fish. Fujian is one of the main fishing areas in China.

福建地下水資源也很豐富，已發(fā)現(xiàn)的溫泉有100多處，大多為40至60度的中溫?zé)崴８＝ㄊ侵袊拇罅謪^(qū)之一，林地面積達(dá)600多萬公頃，木材蓄積量近4億立方米，產(chǎn)量居全國第三。森林覆蓋率達(dá)52.4%，居全國首位。

Fujian has very rich underground water resources. There are over 100 hot springs. Most hold warm water at between 40-60 degrees centigrade. Fujian has one of the four largest forests in China, with over 6 million hectares of forest and nearly 400 million cubic meters of timber reserve. Its timber output is number 3 in China. Its forest coverage is 52.4%, number one in China.

1978至1998年，福建的國民經(jīng)濟(jì)和社會(huì)發(fā)展發(fā)生了歷史性的變化。經(jīng)濟(jì)實(shí)力顯著增強(qiáng)，國民生產(chǎn)總值居全國的位次從1978年的第23位上升到目前的第11位。福建的人均國內(nèi)生產(chǎn)總值已經(jīng)從全國的第22位上升到第6位。

Between 1978 and 1998, there was fundamental change in Fujian's economy and social development. Its economic strength improved substantially. GDP rose from number 23 in 1978 to number 11 now. Per capita GDP rose from number 22 to number 6.

城鄉(xiāng)居民收入顯著提高，生活水平明顯改善。福建的對外開放向高層次、寬領(lǐng)域、縱深化推進(jìn)。全省已初步形成了經(jīng)濟(jì)特區(qū)、沿海開放城市、經(jīng)濟(jì)技術(shù)開發(fā)區(qū)、臺商投資區(qū)、保稅區(qū)、高科技園區(qū)等多層次、多方位的對外開放格局。

The people in both urban and rural areas have seen their incomes increase and their standards of living improve. Fujian is opening up deeper and wider to the outside world. It has special economic zones, open cities along the coast, economic and technological development zones, investment zones for Taiwanese business, tax exemption zones and hi-tech parks. This is truly multi-level and multi-dimensional development.

我們培育和發(fā)展了適應(yīng)市場經(jīng)濟(jì)、符合國際慣例的商品和要素市場。為充分發(fā)揮福建在對外開放，特別是吸收外商投資等方面的窗口和紐帶作用，國家把中國唯一的、以招商引資為主的投資促進(jìn)活動(dòng)定在福建省廈門市舉行。

We have developed a market economy in line with international practices. To enable Fujian to benefit fully, and to attract foreign investment, the Chinese government holds China's only inward investment and trade fair in Xiamen, Fujian Province.
