Mr. Speaker, Mr. Vice President, members of Congress, my fellow Americans:

议长先生，副总统先生，国会议员们，美国同胞们：

Today in America, a teacher spent extra time with a student who needed it, and did her part to lift America's graduation rate to its highest level in more than three decades. 今天，在美国教师会花费额外时间帮助有需要的学生，并为将美国学生的毕业率提高到30多年来的最高水平尽职尽责。

An entrepreneur flipped on the lights in her tech startup, and did her part to add to the more than 8 million new jobs our businesses have created over the past four years. 企业家在其技术创业公司夜以继日，为过去4年来增加800万新的就业岗位尽职尽责。

An autoworker fine-tuned some of the best, most fuel-efficient cars in the world, and did his part to help America wean itself off foreign oil.

汽车工人在改进世界上最好最节油的汽车，为帮助美国减少对外国石油的依赖尽职尽责。

A farmer prepared for the spring after the strongest five-year stretch of farm exports in our history. A rural doctor gave a young child the first prescription to treat asthma that his mother could afford. A man took the bus home from the graveyard shift, bone-tired but dreaming big dreams for his son. And in tight-knit communities across America, fathers and mothers will tuck in their kids, put an arm around their spouse, remember fallen comrades, and give thanks for being home from a war that, after twelve long years, is finally coming to an end.

农民在我国历史上5年来最强劲的农业出口后准备春耕。农村医生为幼儿开出他妈妈承担得起的药方，治疗哮喘。男人下班回家虽精疲力竭，但却怀着对儿子更大的希望。在美国各地的社区，父母为孩子盖好被子，与自己的伴侣互相拥抱。人们缅怀逝去的同事，感谢那场12年的战争终于结束，终于平安回到家中。

Tonight, this chamber speaks with one voice to the people we represent: It is you, our citizens, who make the state of our union strong.

今晚，这个大厅用一个声音对我们代表的人民说，正是你们——我们的公民——创造了我们强大的联邦。

Here are the results of your efforts: The lowest unemployment rate in over five years.

A rebounding housing market. A manufacturing sector that's adding jobs for the first time since the 1990s. More oil produced at home than we buy from the rest of the world - the first time that's happened in nearly 20 years. Our deficits - cut by more than half. And for the first time in over a decade, business leaders around the world have declared that China is no longer the world's No. 1 place to invest; America is. 这是你们奋斗的结果：失业率5年来最低、房地产市场反弹、制造业的就业岗位自上世纪90年代以来首次增加、近20年来国产石油产量首次超过进口。我们的赤字削减一半还多。10年来，世界商界领袖第一次宣布世界首选投资地点是美国而非中国。

That's why I believe this can be a breakthrough year for America. After five years of grit and determined effort, the United States is better-positioned for the 21st century
