十月的中国有两件大事备受国人瞩目,也备受世界瞩目。一是中共十七大在北京召开,二是中国首颗探月卫星“嫦娥一号”发射升空。这两件事情的分量,使得中国人充满信心和自豪感,使得中国在世界主流媒体的重要版面上,吸引了众多眼球。因为前者将决定中国未来五年的发展方向、发展速度和发展质量,后者则反映了中国的实力、潜力和竞争力。 There are two major events in China in October that are drawing much attention from the people of China and attracting world attention. First, the 17th CPC National Congress was held in Beijing; second, China’s first lunar probe “Chang’e One” was launched. The weight of these two things makes the Chinese full of confidence and pride, which has attracted many eyeballs in the important forum of the mainstream media in the world. Because the former will determine China’s development direction, development speed and quality of development over the next five years, the latter reflects China’s strength, potential and competitiveness.
