non-discrimination principle 非歧視原則

a: we can infer that the non-discrimination principle is one of the most important principles of wto agreement. this principle requires equal treatment of domestic and foreign enterprise. does the principle also apply to domestic enterprise of different ownerships?

b: yes, it does. domestic enterprises of different ownerships enjoy equal rights, for the non-discrimination principle grants equal rights to enterprises, regardless of their nationality and ownership. i have found that although changes of china's economic policies are numerous, these changes are largely based on the most important economic principle of wto agreement—non-discrimination principle. such an understanding of principle of the changes may help us not only to have a good insight into the changes but also to foresee the tendency of the new changes of china's economic policies.

重點講解:

1. discrimination n. 歧視 (+against)

discrimination against blacks is still common. 歧視黑人仍是普遍現(xiàn)象。

racial discrimination 種族歧視

2. infer vt. 推斷，推論 [(+from)][+(that)]

to infer a conclusion from the facts 根據(jù)事實推斷出結論

i infer that my proposal has been accepted. 我推測我的建議已被接受。

3. grant vt.同意;給予;授予;承認

he grant his neighbour a licence to use his field. 他許可他的鄰居使用他的一塊地。

4. foresee vt. 預見;預知 [+v-ing][+(that)][+wh-]

it is hard to foresee what will happen. 很難預知將會發(fā)生之事。

a: 我們可以斷定非歧視原則是世貿(mào)協(xié)議中最重要的。這些原則要求平等對待本土企業(yè)和外國企業(yè)。這些原則同樣適合那些不同所有制的國內(nèi)企業(yè)嗎?

b: 是的。不同性質(zhì)的國內(nèi)企業(yè)享有平等的權利，因為非歧視性原則賦予所有企業(yè)平等的權利，不管他們是國內(nèi)還是國外的。我發(fā)現(xiàn)盡管中國經(jīng)濟政策的變化是巨大的，這些變化是基于世貿(mào)協(xié)議重要原則——非歧視原則。就像對政策變化的理解不僅能幫我們洞悉這些變化，同時也可以預測中國經(jīng)濟政策變化的趨勢。
