【Transcript】

A: “I’ll prepare a hundred coffins1, 99 for corrupt2 officials and one for myself.” Who said so impressive words?

B: Of course our former premier3 Zhu Rongji.

A: Really? I like him very much!

B:“My criticism is sometimes too severe and that is not good.” he once said, “But why do you have to wait until your leader flies into a rage before starting to do your work? It’s not that you can’t do it, rather that you won’t do it.”

A: Although he graduated from a prestigious4 university of science and engineering—Tsinghua University in Beijing and majored in electrical engineering, he is smart at words.

B: Yes, and he also has a good command of English. He is rarely seen speaking from a script. His eloquent5 speech has always retained the attention of his listeners.

【注】corrupt a. 腐败的;script n. 脚本

【Translation】

A:“我已经准备好了一百口棺材,九十九副留给贪官,一副留给我自己!”是谁说了这么令人敬佩的话?

B:当然是我们的前总理朱镕基了。

A:真的吗?我非常喜欢他!

B:“我有时批评过于严厉,这不是很好。”他曾经说过,“但为什么要等到领导暴跳如雷之后,才开始做你的工作呢?这并不是你不能做,而是你不做。”

A:虽然他毕业于著名的理工科大学——清华大学,学习电气工程,但却善于言辞。

B:是的,朱总理英语水平也很高。他很少看着讲稿发言,他雄辩的演说始终吸引着听众
