It is positive that many nations are willing to take on global responsibilities. Together, the EU and China can contribute to solving the problems the world is facing. Relations between EU and China are good and dynamic. We have developed on strategic partnership in which we cooperate on numerous issues. We are currently claborating a partnership and cooperation agreement, to better reflect how our relations have developed and to boost those relations for the future.

People-to-people exchanges have increased. Our bilateral trade has grown. Today China is the most important source of imports for the EU, and the EU is China's largest trading partner. Earlier this spring, I headed the biggest commission delegation ever to travel to a third country for a meeting with Premier Wen Jiabao to strengthen EU-China cooperation on sustainable development and trade. Indeed, new vistas of cooperation were opened up on that occasion.

参考答案

许多国家准备并愿意承担责任，这将产生积极影响。欧盟和中国能够共同为解决世界面临的问题作出贡献，欧盟和中国之间的关系是良好而有活力的。我们建立了战略伙伴关系，在众多事务上展开了合作。目前，我们正在细化伙伴合作协议，以更好地反映我们业已存在的关系并着眼未来推动这些关系的发展。

双方人员交流已得到加强，双边贸易也得到了扩大。今天中国已成为欧盟最重要的进口商品来源国。而欧盟则是中国最大的合作伙伴。今年初春，我率领欧盟历史上最大规模的出访第三国的代表团来到中国，与温家宝总理进行了会谈，讨论如何加强欧盟与中国在可持续发展和贸易方面的合作。事实上，那次会议已经为中欧之间的合作开启了新的前景。
