3. That being said

本身是承上啟下的過渡，有時候引導(dǎo)一種矛盾、對立的關(guān)系，常用來翻譯 “但是”、“也”、“同時”、“另一方面”。在句子中刪掉往往也不太影響句意，所以有時候，也可以適當“強行使用”，凸顯邏輯關(guān)系，也適當給譯文加分。

我們也注意到，國際上有的人宣稱，中國發(fā)展起來后會走“國強必霸”的老路。
That being said, we have also taken note of the claim by some （一些人） that a stronger China is bound to follow the beaten path to seek hegemony and pose a so-called “threat” to other countries.

同時，世界仍然很不安寧，傳統(tǒng)與非傳統(tǒng)安全威脅相互交織，金融風(fēng)險、氣候變化、糧食安全、網(wǎng)絡(luò)安全等全球性問題更加突出。
That being said, the world remains far from tranquil. Traditional and non-traditional security threats are entwined. Financial risks, climate change, food security, cyber security and other global issues are becoming more acute.

4. Secure

基本的意思有“安全的”、“牢固的”，時政漢譯英時常用它的“爭取到”的意思，表示某種行為產(chǎn)生的結(jié)果，常用來翻譯 “實現(xiàn)”等意義，替換 obtain/achieve/maitain。

聯(lián)邦政府的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人們繼續(xù)他們爭取?；鸬呐?。
Federal leaders continued their efforts to secure a ceasefire.

以公平原則固本強基，以合作手段驅(qū)動發(fā)展。
The principle of fairness secures a strong foundation, a cooperative approach generates momentum for development

一年來，我國經(jīng)濟社會發(fā)展總體平穩(wěn)，穩(wěn)中有進。
During the past year, China has, overall, achieved a stable performance while at the same time securing progress in its economic and social development.

以這樣的速度保持較長時期發(fā)展，實現(xiàn)現(xiàn)代化的物質(zhì)基礎(chǔ)就會更加雄厚。
If China’s economy can grow at this rate for a relatively long time, we will secure a more solid material foundation for modernization.

繼續(xù)促進教育公平。
We continued to make progress in securing fair access to education.
