China has devoted much efforts and scored satisfactory achievements when it comes to human rights in recent years, wrote an article published on the People’s Daily on Wednesday.

周三發(fā)表在《人民日報》上的一篇文章中說，一談到人權(quán)，近年來，中國付出了很多努力，獲得了令人滿意的成績。

According to the article titled “New Progress in China’s Human Rights,” from 2012 to 2015 China’s GDP volume increased by 7.4 percent on average annually, and disposable income of urban residents grew by 7.5 percent on average every year. Net income of rural residents saw an average of 9.2 percent raise per year.

As a result, millions of jobs were created in cities while 66.63 million rural residents were lifted out of poverty.

因此，成百上千萬的城市工作機(jī)會應(yīng)運而生，6663萬農(nóng)村居民擺脫貧困。

More than 95 percent of people in China have basic medical insurance while 80 percent are covered by social security, the article read.

文章稱，超過95%的中國人擁有基礎(chǔ)醫(yī)療保險，80%的人有社保。

According to data from the article, the number of impoverished people in Ningxia, Xinjiangand six other ethnic minority regions in China was reduced from 31.21 million to 18.13million from 2012 to 2015.

The percentage of female deputies in the 12th National People’s Congress, China’s parliament, went up by 2.07 percent, and the national sex ratio at birth in 2015 dropped to113.5 males for every 100 females, the article wrote.

By 2015, there were 105,000 nursing homes across the country, a 138 percent increase from 2012. Meanwhile, home-care was available in all urban communities and over half of rural communities, according to the article.

2015年，全國有105000家療養(yǎng)院，比2012年上漲138%。與此同時，文章稱，所有城市社區(qū)，一般農(nóng)村社區(qū)都有家庭護(hù)理。

As for disabled people in China, the article noted that in urban and rural areas 10.88 million received a basic living allowance. Nearly 22.3 million disabled people were covered by social security and 30.23 million were insured for basic medical care.

China has also pledged its commitment to human rights issues on multiple occasions.During the 32nd session of the UN Human Rights Council on Monday, Ma Zhaoxu, Chinese Permanent Representative to the UN Office at Geneva and Other International Organizations in Switzerland, put forward seven principles for promoting global human rights discussion and cooperation.

中國還在很多場合就人權(quán)問題許下諾言。在周一的第三十二屆聯(lián)合國人權(quán)委員會期間，中國駐聯(lián)合國日內(nèi)瓦辦事處和其它瑞士國際組織的永久代表馬朝旭提出了七項促進(jìn)全球人權(quán)討論和合作的原則，

Early this year, China also emphasized human rights cooperation in joint statements with Switzerland, the Czech Republic and other European countries.

今年初，中國還在和瑞士，捷克和其它歐洲國家的一份聯(lián)合聲明中強(qiáng)調(diào)了人權(quán)合作。

“I’d like to see the West begin to recognize China’s human right achievements and Chinabegin to reject Western-tinged conspiracy theories,” said Robert Lawrence Kuhn, a US political/economics analyst and international corporate strategist.

美國政治經(jīng)濟(jì)分析家，國際合作戰(zhàn)略家 Robert Lawrence Kuhn說：“我希望西方開始意識到中國人權(quán)取得的進(jìn)步，中國開始拒絕西方色彩的陰謀論。”

Citing China’s extensive judiciary reform in 2014 and abolishment of organ donations from executed prisoners in 2015, Kuhn stated these are historic improvements in China’shuman rights.

援引中國2014年的廣泛司法改革和取消死刑犯人器官捐獻(xiàn)等事例，Kuhn說這是中國在人權(quán)問題上取得的歷史性進(jìn)步。
