New Type of 'Pirates' at Sea
yǐ qián以前 ,dà hǎi大海shì是mào yì贸易hé和hé zuò合作de的dì fāng地方 ,xiàn zài现在yī xiē一些guó jiā国家yòng用zì jǐ自己de的lì liàng力量zài在hǎi shàng海上qiǎng duó抢夺bié rén别人de的dōng xī东西 。
In the past, the sea was a place for trade and cooperation, but now some countries use their power to seize others' belongings at sea.
tā men他们bù zài不再yòng用hēi qí黑旗 ,ér shì而是yòng用fǎ lǜ法律hé和guó jiā国家de的míng yì名义lái来zuò做zhè xiē这些shì事 。
They no longer use black flags, but act in the name of law and the state to do these things.
yǐ qián以前de的hǎi dào海盗huì会zhí jiē直接qiǎng抢chuán船 ,xiàn zài现在de的 “xīn新hǎi dào海盗 ”yòng用fǎ lǜ法律 、jūn duì军队hé和jì shù技术lái来qiǎng抢shí yóu石油 、tiān rán qì天然气hé和zhòng yào重要de的zī yuán资源 。
Old pirates would directly rob ships, but the 'new pirates' use laws, military, and technology to seize oil, natural gas, and important resources.
rú guǒ如果yǒu有lì liàng力量de的guó jiā国家kě yǐ可以suí yì随意qiǎng抢dōng xī东西 ,qí tā其他guó jiā国家yě也huì会xué学zhe着zuò做 ,zhè yàng这样shì jiè世界jiù就huì会biàn dé变得gèng更wēi xiǎn危险 。
If powerful countries can take things at will, other countries will learn to do the same, making the world more dangerous.
mào yì贸易huì会biàn变guì贵 ,pǔ tōng rén普通人huì会shòu dào受到yǐng xiǎng影响 。
Trade will become more expensive, and ordinary people will be affected.
lì shǐ历史shàng上wǒ men我们jiàn见guò过zhè yàng这样de的qíng kuàng情况 ,xiàn zài现在zhǐ shì只是yòng用xīn新de的fāng fǎ方法chū xiàn出现le了 。
We have seen such situations in history; now it just appears in new ways.
wǒ men我们yào要míng bái明白 ,zhēn zhèng真正de的guī zé规则yīng gāi应该bǎo hù保护měi gè rén每个人 ,ér而bú shì不是zhǐ只bǎo hù保护qiáng guó强国 。
We must understand that true rules should protect everyone, not just strong countries.
