一、英譯中：請將下面這段英文譯成正確、流暢的中文。On June 23, the US House of Representatives unanimously passed the Taiwan Non-Discrimination Act to support Taiwan’s return to the International Monetary Fund (IMF), underscoring Taiwan’s vital role in the global economy. The bill calls for Taiwan’s participation in the IMF’s regular surveillance activities, the inclusion of Taiwanese nationals in IMF employment opportunities, and Taiwan’s access to IMF technical assistance and training. “Taiwan doesn’t just deserve a seat at the table at the IMF. The free world needs Taiwan at the IMF,” said Congresswoman Kim in a press release. “We cannot be complicit as international organizations cede leverage to Beijing and silence Taiwan’s voice,” she added. Congressman Green called support for Taiwan’s participation in the IMF a “commonsense, bipartisan measure” that “furthers the long-term interests of both Taiwan and the United States” “Taiwan’s expertise developing one of the largest and most complex economies in the world would bring a valuable perspective to multilateral economic organizations,” he said.
