新中国成立之后，在频繁的国际交往中，各国领导人、官方、民间组织和知名人士，馈赠我国领导人、政府和群众团体大量珍贵礼品。我们从中精选了一部分具有重要纪念意义和较高艺术价值的礼品在此展出。
这批来自五大洲的珍贵礼物，是中国人民同世界各国人民之间友谊的象征，同时概括地反映了各国的民族特点、文化传统和独特的艺术风格。中国人民视之为昆山片玉，随侯之珠，珍藏之，陈列之，藉以扩大视野，了望世界，以便从中获得教益和借鉴。
Exhibition of Invaluable Gifts throughout the World
Since the founding of the People’s Republic of China, either the country leaders, or the governments of different periods, or mass organizations of different sorts have received, through frequent international contact, plenty of valuable gifts from state leaders, governmental or mass organisations, or renowned people. Presented here is a fine collection of gifts of memorable significance and artistic values.
They are an emblem of relationship between Chinese people and people throughout the world, reflecting characteristic nationalities, traditional culture, and individual styles of art, that are all so treasured by our Chinese people that we hope to gain something from them while broadening our vision of the world.

Your title is
"Exhibition of Invaluable Gifts throughout the World"
Are these priceless gifts going on a world tour or is this an exhibition
being hosted in a fix location somewhere in China ?
Your title seems to imply a tour.

I think the title should be made a bit less misleading.
It wasn't clear from the present title whether it
is an "Exhbition of gift that have been received from
all over the world" or " A (throughout the world=world tour of) Exhibition of a collection of gifts.

根据我对原文的理解，应该是“an exhibition of gifts that have been received from all over the world”

After the founding of the PRC , our leaders, government officials, celebraties and various organizations have, during the course of international contacts, received large quantities of triple x gifts (ha, ha, just a joke, eXotic , eXquisite and eXpensive) from their counterparts in various countries. For this exhibition, we have selected pieces that carry special signficances as well as those that are of high artistic values.
( Comment about this line:
我们从中精选了一部分具有重要纪念意义和较高艺术价值的礼品在此展
出。
(IMHO this implies that there are some gifts that are of less significance and less artistic, I wonder if
some people may be too sensitive and get offended. )
These priceless treasures represent the token of appreciation ( or token of friendship) between our people and those
of the rest of the world. The form and style of each piece reflects the unique cultural,
nationalistic and artistic characters of its country of origin. etc..(I have no opinion on the rest of the text)

拙译未经仔细推敲，只落得个贻笑大方。足证翻译非瞬间可就之事，起码非领导们想象中的“小菜一碟”！！！

"qun2 zhong4 tuan2 ti3" - NGOs?

I think NGOs (non-governmental org.)is better than the word "mass organization"
used in your traslation. What do you think?

yes, you're right! Or "civil society" which is on vogue now.
