國家主席習(xí)近平呼吁世界二十大經(jīng)濟(jì)體的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人在加速經(jīng)濟(jì)增長時避免“清談”。

President Xi said the global economy was at a "crucial juncture" due to volatile markets and feeble trade.

習(xí)近平主席在G20峰會上指出，知行合一，采取務(wù)實行動。承諾一千，不如落實一件。我們應(yīng)該讓二十國集團(tuán)成為行動隊，而不是清談館。BBC報道將“清談”翻譯成empty talk，avoid empty talk意思是少說空話多干實事。英語中的習(xí)慣說法Talking the talk is not as good as walking the walk用在這里也是很合適的。

習(xí)主席指出，因為市場動蕩(volatile markets)與貿(mào)易低迷(feeble trade)，世界經(jīng)濟(jì)正處于“關(guān)鍵當(dāng)口”(crucial juncture)。因此國際社會對本次杭州G20峰會抱有很高期待(have high expectations)，可見此次杭州峰會的重要性。
