朱镕基：也就是说，各级政府机关除了必要的规费以外，不允许巧立名目向人民群众收费。
朱彤：That is to say,except for some necessary and proscribed fees,the government institutions at various levels are prohibited from levying various charges or fees from the people in various kinds of names.
proscribe:剥夺...的公权；放逐
levy:征收（税等）；强索
朱镕基：最后，我还要讲一句，就是本届政府认为，科技兴国是本届政府的最大任务。科教兴国。
朱彤：Finally,I'd like to add that this government maintains that to revitalize China through science and education will be the most important task for the government.
revitalize:使恢复生气；使复活；使复兴
朱镕基：江泽民主席非常重视这个问题，多次地阐明科教兴国的重要性。但是，我们为什么贯彻得不好呢？没有钱。钱到哪儿去了呢？第一，我们政府机关庞大，吃饭财政，把钱都吃光了。
朱彤：President Jiang Ze-min attaches at importance to this issue and he has repeatedly emphasized the importance of science and education to China's development.But why hasn't this been implemented well?ause there is no money.And where has all the money gone?We have,you know,currently a very unwieldy government organization and government institutions,so we call,it's like eating finance or eating budget.That is to say,most,a large proportion of the budget have been ear-marked for paying the salaries of the government functionaries,so all the money acctually have been eaten up.
unwieldy:不灵便的；使用不便的；笨重的；庞大的
朱镕基：第二，在各级政府的干预底下，进行了不少的盲目的重复建设。几十亿、几百亿的一个项目投产以后没得市场。相反，把原有的一些企业又挤跨了。这就是中央的财政，包括我们的都拿不出钱来支持科教兴国，把钱浪费了。
朱彤：And secondly,under the intervention of governments at various levels,there have been a lot of indiscriminate and duplicated construtions.Some projects which have absorbed billions or tens of billions of RMB yuan of investment,as soon as they are put into operation,they actually they can't find any market for their projects,and some existing enterprises have to be closed or be suspended ause of these newly set-up projects.That's the main reason why the central government and including various state-owned banks do not have enough money to support the strategy of revitaliaing the country through science and technology,ause a lot of money has been *squandered.
indiscriminate:不加区别的，无差别的；不分皂白的
squander:浪费，挥霍
朱镕基：因此本届政府决心精简政府结构，减掉一半的人。同时进一步贯彻制止重复建设的方针，不允许进行重复建设，把钱省下来。科技兴国的方针就能够贯彻了。科教兴国。
朱彤：So,the current government has every resolve to streamline and simplify the government institutions,and to cut the staff by half,and we will continue to implement the policy of prohibiting and stopping all the duplicated constructions.So that we will be able to channel more money and to save more money for implementing the strategy of revitalizing China through science and education.
