2015两会代表精彩语录之九

I fully support the central government's decision to reduce senior executives' salary. I used to earn 1.2 to 1.3 million yuan ($192,000 to $208,000) before tax a year, and now my salary dropped the most in my company. I don't have a problem about it. I have had a high salary for many years. I have a house and a car. I could survive even if I was not paid for two years.

“中央决定这么做是对的，我是拥护的，已经带头把工资降下来了。我过去含税一年120、130万元人民币，现在我是公司降得最多的，但是也没意见，因为过去（高薪）拿了这么多年了，房子也有了，还配着车……别说降下来，就是两年不发也够吃够喝。”

If the wife of a leader chases after vanity and often says to her husband, "why do other leaders have houses and cars while we have nothing?", the leader may take risks to accept bribes to satisfy his wife out of shame. Conversely, if the wife refuses to take any gifts even when someone sends a gift to their house, the leader will be immune (from duty crimes).

领导的妻子虚荣、攀比，天天唠叨说同样是领导别人有车有房为什么我们没有，作为领导肯定脸上过不去，这样就很容易诱发犯罪。如果有人送礼到家里，妻子拒收，显然这个领导所处环境就安全。

The proportion of flights being punctual in our country dropped from 72 percent in 2013 to 68 percent last year, which indicates that the traditional airspace management system has hindered the development of the civil aviation industry and has to be reformed as soon as possible.

2014年，我国民航航班正点率为68%，比上一年的72%有所降低。旧的空域管理体制影响了民航业的发展，的确到了“不改不行，非改不可”的地步。

Establishing free education in high schools is helpful for the adjustment and transformation of the economic structure, and is particularly beneficial for attracting investment. It will be good for economic growth and will ease employment pressure if the government invests 300 billion yuan ($48 billion) in the initiative.

实行高中免费义务教育，对我们现在的经济结构调整转型、特别是投资拉动也有重要作用。多投入3000多个亿，对经济社会增长有一定积极作用，还有就是可以有效缓解当前的就业压力。

It is a must to pay attention to the increasingly serious problem of abandoned infants. About 100,000 babies are abandoned every year, and 99 percent of them are disabled or have diseases. I suggested providing free physical checks for pregnant women and building a national registration system for children with disabilities or disease.

弃婴已成为重大社会问题。我国每年弃婴10万名，“婴儿安全岛”内99％为残疾弃婴、弃童。建议政府在全国范围内对户籍人口、流动人口的“产前筛查”实施免费，并建立病残儿童国家登记制度。

Innovation will not be a problem if students start attending innovation courses and receive training on imagination and independent thinking starting in primary school. The reason why innovation seems so hard is that people's thinking is confined while receiving education. Children in China lag behind in the ability to find breakthroughs in thinking and imagination compared with their foreign counterparts.

如果现在小学、中学、大学都有很好的创新创业课程，锻炼学生的想象力，锻炼学生独立思考能力和突破能力，那么未来中国的创新就不是一个问题。为什么中国现在的创新那么难，是因为从小到大的教育过程使思维受到了局限。中国孩子的突破性思维能力和颠覆性思维能力以及想象力跟国外的孩子比，还是要差一点。

In recent years, there have been a series of public protests in China against paraxylene projects, citing concerns that the petrochemical is toxic. Although there is great demand in the country for the product and it must be imported to meet the demand, lots of legitimate projects were shut down, causing great loss of State funds just because of the false beliefs. These incidents reflect that popularization of scientific knowledge among the public should be further strengthened.

近年来，在我国面临PX大量进口的前提下，一些地方在PX项目建设过程中，由于公众坚信“PX剧毒”和其他原因，连续引起多起大规模群体事件，陷入“一闹就停”的尴尬局面，给国家带来巨大损失。这些现象背后，反映出的实质问题是我国公民科学素质有待提高。
