我在中央书记处开会的时候讲过，这几年，总的来说不是路线错误。
At a meeting of the Secretariat of the Party Central Committee, I said that, on the whole, we had kept to the correct line in the past few years.
我们有不少成绩，但是也有大量的缺点，而且教训应该看得严重一点，深刻一点，应该吸取。
We have achieved a great deal but also made many mistakes.
We should draw lessons from our mistakes and take these lessons seriously.
这几年的毛病、责任不是你们担，耀邦同志讲，你们有份，比如刮“共产风”，你们有份。
You are not being held responsible for the mistakes made in those years.
Comrade Yaobang said that you should be held partly responsible for the tendency towards effecting a premature leap towards Communism.
但是，这几年，各级团组织总是在各级党委领导下努力做工作。
As the Youth League organizations at all levels have been working hard under the leadership of the Party committees at various levels over the years,
党也一样，你们也一样，是努力的嘛。
as have all the Party organizations,
这些错误，这些缺点，主要不是团的问题。
it is not for you to bear the major responsibility for the mistakes and shortcomings.
你们检查这一点也好，全党的教训，青年团也吸取嘛，有份无份都要知道嘛。
However, it will be to your benefit to look into them.
Anyway, the Youth League should keep in mind the lessons drawn by the Party.
这次会议，你们进一步讨论团怎样做工作，有些问题这次也搞清楚了。
At this conference, you have had more discussion on how the Youth League should do its work, and some questions in this connection have been clarified.
现在我想提出这么一个问题，就是青年团本身领导方面的问题。
Now I should like to raise a question concerning the leadership of the Youth League.
根据这几年做的和现在肯定的，团的工作无非两部分：一是参加全党全国范围内的各种工作，在同级党委领导下面，努力奋斗；一是属于青年团本身的特殊性质的工作，青年团应该有自己的系统领导。
As has been done in the past few years and confirmed at this conference, the work of the Youth League organizations comprises no more than two aspects.
One, under the leadership of the Party committees at the corresponding levels, to take an active part in various kinds of work of the Party and the state; two, do their own specific work.
The Youth League should have its own system of leadership.
对于系统领导这一点，应该说过去讲得不够明确，这一次把它讲明确好。
This point was not made very clear in the past, and it is best to make it clear at this time.
当然，所谓系统领导，比如团中央发一个指示，各级团委在具体执行中，还要跟同级党委商量，同级党委根据当地的条件，什么时候做，如何做，统一加以安排。
For instance, in carrying out a directive given by the Central Committee of the Youth League, Youth League committees at various levels should consult with Party committees at the corresponding levels so that the latter can make unified arrangements as to when and how to implement this directive in light of local conditions.
这样，就把团的系统领导和党的统一领导结合起来了。
In this way the League's system of leadership can be combined with the Party's unified leadership.
系统领导的作法不能完全像过去那样。
The Youth League's system of leadership should not function entirely the same way as it did before.
比如青年团单独来一个号召，在全国搞一个什么运动，有没有？
For instance, did the Youth League not independently issue calls to conduct nationwide movements?
过去有些号召是必要的，我们并不否定团对全国青年可以有单独的号召。
Some calls issued in the past were necessary and we do not want to deprive the Youth League of the right to issue its own calls to the youth throughout the country.
问题是这种形式怎么用法，什么时候用，在什么问题上用，哪些用法对，哪些用法不对。
The question is when and how and on what matters to issue calls, and we should also examine which calls are correct and which are not.
不但青年团有这个问题，党也有这个问题。
These questions should be considered not only by the League but also by the Party.
比如党向全国号召搞丰产方，于是青年团就搞个青年丰产方，妇联就搞个妇女丰产方，结果都搞得不好。
For example, the Party once issued a call nationwide to experiment with high-yield farm plots, which was answered by organizations of the Youth League and of the Women's Federation, but the results were not satisfactory.
这当然不只是你们青年团的事，你们也是根据党的号召。
Of course, you are not entirely to blame because you acted in response to the call of the Party.
比如青年团号召青年种树，这总是不错的，问题是由团单独地搞，又没有好好地领导，成活率很低，这个教训要吸取。
In another example, the Youth League called on young people to plant trees, which was not a bad idea.
The problem was that is was done only by Youth League members and, moreover, the Youth League organization did not provide effective leadership over this job.
Consequently, the survival rate of saplings was very low, which should teach us a lesson.
青年报发表社论，提出号召，不要搞一般号召，而是扎扎实实地告诉青年怎么做法。
When newspapers of youth issue calls through editorials, these should not be general calls; they should also specifically tell young people the correct approach to carrying them out.
这样的号召，可能会产生好的效果。
In this way the calls may achieve good results.
这种属于号召青年应该努力奋斗的事情还有的是。
There are many things for which the Youth League can call on the youth to work hard.
