上一点wiki上的背景知识，想学习的朋友们可以看看

Treaty of San Francisco旧金山对日和约

The Treaty of Peace with Japan (commonly known as the Treaty of San Francisco or San Francisco Peace Treaty), between Japan and part of the Allied Powers, was officially signed by 48 nations on September 8, 1951, at the War Memorial Opera House in San Francisco, California. It came into force on April 28, 1952.
This treaty served to end officially World War II, to end formally Japan's position as an imperial power, and to allocate compensation to Allied civilians and former prisoners of war who had suffered Japanese war crimes. This treaty made extensive use of the UN Charter and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights to enunciate the Allies' goals.
This treaty, along with the Security Treaty signed that same year, is said to mark the beginning of the "San Francisco System"; this term, coined by historian John W. Dower, signifies the effects of Japan's relationship with the United States and its role in the international arena as determined by these two treaties and is used to discuss the ways in which these effects have governed Japan's post-war history.

ANZUS 澳纽美条约

The Australia, New Zealand, United States Security Treaty (ANZUS or ANZUS Treaty) is the military alliance which binds Australia and New Zealand and, separately, Australia and the United States to cooperate on defence matters in the Pacific Ocean area, though today the treaty is understood to relate to attacks in any area.

Pax Americana 美国霸权主导下的世界和平

Pax Americana (Latin for "American Peace") is an appellation applied to the historical concept of relative peace in theWestern hemisphere and, later, the Western world, resulting from the preponderance of power enjoyed by the United States of Americastarting around the turn of the 20th century. Although the term finds its primary utility in the later half of the 20th century, it has been used in various places and eras, such as the post United States Civil War Era in North America[4] and globally during the time between the Great World Wars.[2]
Pax Americana is primarily used in its modern connotations concerning the peace established after the end of World War II in 1945. In this modern sense, the term has come to indicate the military and economic position of the United States in relation to other nations. The term derives from and is inspired by the Pax Romana of the Roman empire, the Pax Britannica of the British Empire and the Pax Mongolica of the Mongol Empire.

这几句没有译？？
As for Taiwan, a formal alliance lapsed after America recognised the government in Beijing in 1979. But this week’s row over arms sales has shown how even the most China-friendly administration in Taiwan since the civil war still cleaves to the informal American alliance.

convert its growing economic clout into strategic reassurance.
大意：把它经济增长的大好势头换成他国过中国的信心
不用安抚吧

“But this week’s row over arms sales has shown how even the most China-friendly administration in Taiwan since the civil war still cleaves to the informal American alliance”
但是这周围绕着对台军售产生的争论显示了即使是目前自内战结束以来最亲华的台湾当局也仍然依赖着和美国的非正式同盟关系。

个人意见，请楼主参考！

a few bouts of tinkering aside, is still fundamentally in place
除了少数改动之外，大体都没变

你的翻译应该是 despite a few bouts of tinkering, it had eventually served its purpose。is fundamentally in place 没有这个意思。

Some of China’s apparently inept diplomacy may be a result of poorly co-ordinated foreign policy

inept其实就是foolish的意思，形容文章上一段所描述的中国的一些举动
