Support for human rights and human dignity is ingrained in America. Our nation is made up of immigrants from every part of the world. We have protected our unity and struggled to perfect our union by extending basic rights to all our people. And those rights include the freedom to speak your mind, to worship your God, and to choose your leaders. These are not things that we seek to impose—— this is who we are. It guides our openness to one another and to the world.　　在美国，人们对**与人类尊严的拥护根深蒂固。美国是一个由来自世界各地的移民组成的国家。我们保障所有公民的基本权利，维护国家统一并努力使我们的合众国尽善尽美。这些权利包括**、宗教信仰自由和选举自由。但我们并不寻求将自己的民族特性强加给别人。它能引导我们对彼此打开心扉，向世界敞开胸怀。 　　China has its own distinct story that shapes its own worldview. And Americans know the richness of China's history because it helped to shape the world and it helped to shape America. We know the talent of the Chinese people because they have helped to create this great country. My own Cabinet contains two Chinese Americans. And we know that despite our differences, America is enriched through deeper ties with a country of 1.3 billion people that is at once ancient and dynamic —— ties that can be forged through increased exchanges among our people, and constructive bilateral relations between our governments. That is how we will narrow our divisions.

　　中国以其独特的经历形成了自己的世界观。美国人民了解中国丰富的历史底蕴，因为它对塑造世界、塑造美国做出了贡献。我们了解中国人民的聪明才智，因为他们参与创建了美国这个伟大的国家。我的内阁中就有两位美籍华人。我们知道，拥有13亿人口的中国历史悠久且充满活力。尽管我们两国之间存在分歧，但随着两国人民日益频繁的交流，政府间建设性双边关系的不断增强，两国关系不断深入，这使美国获益匪浅。在此基础上，我们之间的分歧将会缩小。
