As we see also from the excellent range of speakers you have today, leadership is required in every sphere of our daily life — in politics, in business, in community work, in civil society, in arts and culture, in urban development, in the creative industries — just to name a few. 今日的讲者来自不同界别。由此可见,领袖在生活不同范畴,例如政治、商业、社区及民间工作、文化艺术、市区发展、创意工业等,都是不可或缺的。

The Bauhinia Foundation itself is a leader in the sphere of public policy research in Hong Kong — and here I must congratulate the Foundation on its 5th anniversary this year, and for providing such a wealth of policy perspectives during that time. The work of the Foundation and other think-thanks is not just a useful reference point for the government — it contributes significantly to the knowledge bank of experience and ideas on which the public and media can draw when discussing important issues facing our society. So, on this occasion, I must thank the Foundation and its members for all of the thought leadership you have provided for Hong Kong’s benefit since your inception in 2006. 智经研究中心本身,就是本港公共政策研究方面的领袖。我在此祝贺智经成立五周年,感谢各位在这段日子提出大量政策观点。智经和其他智库的工作,不单对政府有参考作用,亦为公众和传媒在讨论重要社会议题时,提供丰富的经验和意见。智经及其成员自中心于二○○六年成立以来,以香港的利益为大前提,为我们提供思维上的领导,我藉此衷心致谢。

香港特首曾荫权智经研究中心领袖论坛致辞2

Leadership is a subject that has featured in the news quite a bit lately — and I am sure it will continue to be featured even more in the next nine months or so as we choose our next Chief Executive. So, this conference and workshop today and tomorrow come at a rather interesting time. 领袖近日亦成为媒体的热门话题。我相信,在下任行政长官选举前未来九个月,都会继续成为城中热话。因此,论坛和工作坊在今明两天举行,时间的配合实在巧妙。

Indeed, having heard and read so much lately about my style of governance for Hong Kong, some might say that the Foundation have been charitable in asking me to talk to you on the topic of leadership. Or perhaps it shows the Foundation’sperceptiveness and objectivity in trying to study this subject against a larger canvas of global political evolution from the past, to the present, and peeking into the future. 的确,近来已有许多关于我治港风格的论述。有人看过和听过后或者会说,智经中心真是包容,竟然邀请特首谈论领袖之道。也许这正好表现智经的洞察力和客观态度,把研究这个课题放在全球政治演化的大背景上,做到回顾过去,透视现在,展望将来。

I have been careful inframing the context of what I am talking about today. I do not want there to be any doubt that what I say is anything other than my own personal reflections on leadership in the public sector of Hong Kong. It is not a recipe for success for universal application. It is not a list of pre-requisites. It is a distillation of my own experience over almost 45 years of government and political work in Hong Kong — my hopes, my failures, my disappointments and, dare I say, my occasional triumphs in my own home town. 在准备今天演讲内容时,我经过一番考虑。我想与各位分享我在香港公营界别作领导的个人反思。所以,我所说的不是什么全球通用的领袖成功要素,也不是领袖先决条件的清单。我和大家分享的,是过去差不多四十五年里,自己在香港政府及政界的经验总结,包括我的希冀、失败和挫折、及容许我这样说,偶尔的成功。

重点词汇:

1. in every sphere of our daily life:在我们生活的各个方面,领域。

The scientist is distinguished in many spheresof knowledge.

这位科学家在许多知识领域中都是杰出的。

2. just to name a few: 仅以这些为例。

3. the knowledge bank of experience and ideas: 丰富的经验和意见。

bank: 有一系列,一排的意思。在本句中引申为“许多,大量”,相当于“a lot of”。

还有关于bank的一个用法:

You can take it to the bank.

我所说的是真的,不是闹着玩的。

记得电影John Q 里面就有这么一句,这句话就相当于“What I'm saying is correct.

4. have heard and read so much about: 听说或者读过很多关于...的

I've heard so much about you.

久仰久仰。

5. from the past, to the present, and peeking into the future.

回顾过去,透视现在,展望将来。

这句完全可以用到作文中的,可以学一下它的句式。

6. dare I say: 容我这样说。
