The 2013 State of the Union Address THE PRESIDENT: Mr. Speaker, Mr. Vice President, members of Congress, fellow citizens: 议长先生，副总统先生，国会议员们，美国人民： Fifty-one years ago, John F. Kennedy declared to this chamber that “the Constitution makes us not rivals for power but partners for progress.” (Applause.) “It is my task,” he said, “to report the State of the Union -- to improve it is the task of us all.” 51年前，约翰-F-肯尼迪在这里宣布“宪法让我们成为进步的伙伴而不是权利的对手，”(掌声)他说，“发表国情咨文是我的任务，但是完善国情却是我们所有人的任务。” Tonight, thanks to the grit and determination of the American people, there is much progress to report.

(Applause.) 所以，在一起，我们清除了危机的废墟。而且，我们可以说，通过新的信心，我们国家的状态更强有力了。(掌声) But we gather here knowing that there are millions of Americans whose hard work and dedication have not yet been rewarded.

Corporate profits have skyrocketed to all-time highs -- but for more than a decade, wages and incomes have barely budged. 但是我们来到这里，知道还有数百万的美国人，通过辛苦的工作和奉献，并没有得到回报。我们的经济正在创造就业岗位——但仍然有许多人不能找到全职工作。企业利润飙升到了新高度——但十多年来，薪资和收入几乎从未上升。 It is our generation’s task, then, to reignite the true engine of America’s economic growth -- a rising, t
