good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. the title of my speech today is "crossing the sea" . an english poet by the name of rudyard kipling once wrote in this poem "we and they" :all the people like us are weand everyone else is theywe live over the seawhile they live over the waywe eat pork and beef with cow horn-handled knivesthey who gobble their rice off a leafare horrified out of their lives.when these lines first caught my eyes, i was shocked--how could two people remain so isolated and ignorant of each other in the past? today´s society, of course, is an entirely different picture. those people who used to eat with gobble their rice might be as well have taken to fish and chips.indeed, just take china as example; our modern life has been influenced by western style of living in so many ways that it´s no longer surprising to see teenagers going crazy about rock-and-roll, whole families dining out at mc donald´s and even rather elderly people dressed in apple jeans.however, these are only some expressions of the cultural changes taking place in our society today. what is really going on is a subtle but significant restructuring of the nation´s mentalit y. just look around.how many college graduates are ready to compete aggressively for every job opportunity, whereas not long ago they were asked just to sit idle and wait for whatever was to be assigned to them by the government?how many young people are now eager to seek for an independent life whereas only two decades ago they would rely totally on their parents to arrange for their future? ask anyone who participates in today´s speech contest. who has not come with a will to fight and who has not come determined to achieve self-fulfillment in winning the game? and i´m quite certain that if confucius had lived to see today´s china, he would have been horrified to see young lovers kissing each other in public places in an unreserved expression of their passion.it is therefore evident that we as descendants of an ancient eastern civilization are already living under strong influence of the western culture. but it is not only in china that we find the incorporation of the two cultures.take the united states as an example: during the 1980s, in face of the overwhelming competition from japan, many american companies such as the ford began to adopt a teamwork management from their rivals, the essence of which, lay at the very core of eastern culture.take the chinese acupuncture as another example: this traditional treatment of diseases is finally finding its way to the west and hence the underlying notion that illness is resulted from the imbalance between yin and yang within the body--an idea which would strike any westerner as incredible in the past!ladies and gentlemen, we live in a great epoch when the global integration of economy and the information revolution have brought cultures of the world closer than ever before. we live in aparticular era when countries, east and west, find themselves in need of readjusting their traditional values. we live, at the same time, at a critical juncture of our evolution because such problems as ethnic conflicts and regional unrest are increasingly posing a threat to the peace and happiness of the whole human race.to cope with such an era and to embrace an even brighter future, we need to learn to live more harmoniously in a world community which is becoming smaller and smaller. my dear fellow students, our command of the english language render sit possible for us to gain an insight into western culture while retaining our own cultural identity.therefore, it is our sacred responsibility to promote the cultural exchanges and hence the mutual understanding between china and the rest of the world.it is my happiest dream that new generation of chinese will not only grow up drinking coca cola and watching hollywood, but also be blessed with the far-reaching benefits of multiple cultures; benefits that our forefathers had never, ever dreamed of.to end my speech, i would like to quote rudyard kipling again:all the people like us are weand everyone else is theybut once you cross over the seayou will end by looking on weas only a sort of they.thank you.译文:穿越海洋女士们、先生们,晚上好。
夏鹏英语演讲稿篇一:夏鹏的演讲稿第十届“21世纪杯”全国英语演讲比赛冠军夏鹏的演讲稿From Walls to BridgesI'm studying in a city famous for its walls. All visitors to my city are amazed by the imposing sight of the city walls, silhouetted by the setting sun with gold and shining lines. With old, cracked bricks patched with lichen, the walls are weather-beaten guards, standing still for centuries in protecting the city.Our ancestors liked to build walls. They built walls in Beijing, Xi'an, Nanjing and many other cities, and they built the Great Wall, which snakes through half of our country. They built walls to ward off enemies and evil spirits. This tradition has been maintained to this day as we still have many parks and schools walled off from the public. I grew up at the foot of the city walls, and I've loved them since my childhood.For a long time, walls were one of the most natural things in the world.My perception, however, changed after a hiking trip to the Eastern Suburbs, a scenic area of my city. My classmates and I were walking with some international students. As we walked out of the city, we found ourselves flanked by taller and taller trees, which formed a huge canopy above our heads. Suddenly an international student asked me, "Where is the entrance to the Eastern Suburbs""We're already in the Eastern Suburbs," I replied.He seemed taken aback, "I thought you Chinese have walls for everything." His remark set off a heated debate. At one point, he likened our walled cities to "jails," while I insisted that the Eastern Suburbs were one of the many places in China that had no walls.That debate had no winners, but I did learn a lot from this international student. For instance, he told me that universities like Oxford and Cambridge were not surrounded by walls; the campuses were just part of the cities. I have to admit that we do have many walls inChina, and as we are developing our country, we must carefully examine them, whether they are physical or intangible. We will keep some walls but tear down those that impede China's development.Let me give you an example.A year ago, when I was working on a term paper, I needed a book on business law and found a copy in the law school library. However, the librarian turned down my request with a cold shoulder, saying, "You can't borrow this book, you are not a student here." In the end, I had to spend 200 yuan buying a copy; meanwhile, the copy in law school was gathering dust on the shelf. At the beginning of this semester, I heard that my university has started not only to unify its libraries but also link them up with libraries of other universities, so my experience will not be repeated. Barriers will be replaced by bridges. Through an inter-library loan system, we will have access to books from any library. With globalization, with China integrated into the world, I believe many of these intangible walls will be knocked down.I know globalization is a controversial issue, and it is hard to say whether it is good or bad. But one thing is for sure: it draws our attention to China's tangible and intangible walls and forces us to examine their roles in the modern world.And how about the ancient walls in my city and other cities Should we tear them down Just the opposite. My city, like Beijing and other cities, is actually making a great effort to preserve the walls. These walls attract not only historians and archeologists but also many schoolchildren trying to study our history and cultural heritage. Walls have turned into bridges to our past and to the rest of the world.

All visitors to my city are amazed by the imposing sight of the city walls, silhouetted by the setting sun with gold and shining lines. With cold, cracked bricks patched with lichen. The walls are weather-beaten guards, standing still for centuries in protecting the century. Our ancestors liked to build walls. They built walls in Beijing, Xi’an, Nanjing and many other cities and they built the Great Wall, which snakes through half of our country. They built walls to ward off the enemies and evil spirits. This tradition has been maintained to this day as we still have many schools and parks walled off the public. I grew up at the foot of the city walls and I have loving them since my childhood. For a long time, walls were one of the most natural things in the world. My perception changed after a hiking trip to the Eastern Suburbs, a scenic area of my city. My classmates and I were walking with some international students. As we walked out of the city, we found ourselves flanked by taller and taller trees, which formed a huge canopy above our heads.

At one point, he likened our walled cities to “jails”, while I insisted that the Eastern Suburbs was one of the many places in China that had no walls. That debate had no winners, but I did learn a lot from this international student. For instant, he told me, universities like Oxford and Cambridge were not surrounded by walls. The campuses were just the part of the cities. I have to admit we do have many walls in China, and as we are developing our country, we must carefully examine them, whether they are physical or intangible. We will tear down some walls and we will keep some of them. Let me give you an example.

With globalization, with China integrated into the world, I believe many of these intangible walls will be knocked down. I know that globalization is a controversial issue, and it’s hard for us to say whether it is good or bad. But one thing is for sure, it draws our attention to China’s physical and intangible walls and forces us to examine their roles in the modern world. Then what about the walls in my cities and inother cities Should we tear them down Just the opposite. My city, like Beijing and other cities, is making great effort to preserve the walls. These walls now attracted not only historians and archaeologist but also our school children trying to study our history and cultural heritage. The walls have turned into bridges to our past and to the rest of the world. If the ancient builders of these walls were still alivetoday, they would be proud to see such a great change in the roles of their walls. They are now cultural bridges that link East and West, South and North, and all the countries of the world. Our cultural heritage will survive our globalization. Thank you very much, ladies and gentlemen.篇三:全国英语演讲赛冠军-夏鹏演讲稿Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen:Today I would like to begin with a story. There was once a physical therapist who traveled all the way from America to Africa to do a census about mountain gorillas. These gorillas are a main attraction to tourists from all over the world; this put them severely under threat of poaching and being put into the zoo. She went there out of curiosity, but what she saw strengthened her determination to devote her whole life to fighting for those beautiful creatures. She witnessed a scene, a scene taking us to a place we never imaged we've ever been, where in the very depth of the African rainforest, surrounded by trees, flowers and butterflies, the mother gorillas cuddled their babies.Yes, that's a memorable scene in one of my favorite movies, called Gorillas in the Mist, based on a true story of Mrs. Diana Fossey, who spent most of her lifetime in Rwanda to protect the ecoenvironment there until the very end of her life.To me, the movie not only presents an unforgettable scene but also acts as a timeless reminder that we should not develop the tourist industry at the cost of our eco-environment.Today, we live in a world of prosperity but still threatened by so many new problems. On the one hand, tourism, as one of the most promising industries in the 21st century, provides people with the great opportunity to see everything there is to see and to go any place there is to go. It has become a lifestyle for some people, and has turned out to be the driving force in GDP growth. It has the magic to turn a backward town into a wonderland of prosperity. But on the other hand, many problems can occur - natural scenes aren't natural anymore. Deforestation to heat lodges are devastating Nepal. Oil spills from tourist boats arepolluting Antarctica. Tribal people are forsaking their native music and dress to listen to U2 on Walkman and wear Nike and Reeboks.All these appalling facts have brought us to the realization that we can no longer stand by and do nothing, because the very thought of it has been eroding our resources. Encouragingly, the explosive growth of global travel has put tourism again in the spotlight, which is why the United Nations has made XX the year of ecotourism, for the first time to bring to the world's attention the benefits of tourism, but also its capacity to destroy our ecoenvironment.Now every year, many local ecoenvironmental protection organizations are receiving donations - big notes, small notes or even coins - from housewives, plumbers, ambulance drivers, salesmen, teachers, children and invalids. Some of them cannot afford to send the money but they do. These are the ones who drive the cabs, who nurse in hospitals, who are suffering from ecological damage in their neighborhood. Why Because they care. Because they still want their Mother Natureback. Because they know it still belongs to them.This kind of feeling that I have, ladies and gentlemen, is when it feels like it, smells like it, and looks like it , it's all coming from a scene to be remembered, a scene to recall and to cherish.The other night, as I saw the moon linger over the land and before it was sent into the invisible, my mind was filled with songs. I found myself humming softly, not to the music, but to something else, someplace else, a place remembered, a place untouched, a field of grass where no one seemed to have been except the deer.And all those unforgettable scenes strengthened the feeling that it's time for us to do something, for our own and our coming generation.Once again, I have come to think of Mrs. Diana Fossey because it is with her spirit, passion, courage and strong sense of our ecoenvironment that we are taking our next step into the world.And no matter who we are, what we do and where we go, in our minds, there's always a scene to remember,a scene worth our effort to protect it and fight for it.Thank you very much.From Walls to BridgesI'm studying in a city famous for its walls.

英语演讲稿-穿越海洋英语演讲稿:穿越海洋Indeed,just take China as example;Our modern life has been influenced by Western style of living in so many ways that it’s no longer surprising to see teenagers going crazy about rock-and-roll,whole families dining out at McDonald’s and even rather elderly people dressed in AppleJeans.However,these are only some expressions of thecultural changes taking place in our society today.What is really going on is a subtle but significant restructuring of the nation’s mentality.Just look ar ound.How many college graduates are ready to pete aggressively for every job opportunity,whereas not long ago they were asked just to sit idle and wait for whatever was to be assigned to them by the government?How many young people are now eager to seek for an independent life whereas only two decades ago they would rely totally on their parents to arrange for their future?Ask anyone who participates in today’s speech contest.Who has not e with a will to fight and who has not e determined to achieve self-fu lfillment in winning the game?And I’m quite certain that if Confucius had lived to see today’s China,he would have been horrified to see young lovers kissing each other in public places in an unreserved expression of theirpassion.It is therefore evident that we as descendants of an ancient Eastern civilization are already living under strong influence of the Western culture.But it is not only in China that we find the incorporation of the two cultures.Take the United States as an example: During the 1980s,in face of the overwhelming petition from Japan,many American panies such as the Ford began to adopt a teamwork management from their rivals,the essence of which,lay at the very core of Eastern culture.Take the Chinese acupuncture as another example: This traditional treatment of diseases is finally finding its way to the West and hence the underlying notion that illness is resulted from the imbalance between yin and yang within the body--an idea which would strike any Westerner as incredible in the past!Ladies and Gentlemen,we live in a great epoch when the global integration of economy and the information revolution have brought cultures of the world closer than ever before.We live in a particular era when countries,East and West,find themselves in need of readjusting their traditional values.We live,at the same time,at a critical juncture of our evolution because such problems as ethnic conflicts and regional unrest are increasingly posing athreat to the peace and happiness of the whole human race.To cope with such an era and to embrace an even brighterfuture,we need to learn to live more harmoniously in a worldmunity which is being smaller and smaller.My dear fellow students,our mand of the English language render sit possible for us to gain an insight into Western culture while retaining our own cultural identity.Therefore,it is our sacred responsibility to promote the cultural exchanges and hence the mutual understanding between China and the rest of the world.It is my happiest dream that new generation of Chinese will not only grow up drinking Coca cola and watching Hollywood,but also be blessed with the far-reaching benefits of multiple cultures;benefits that our forefathers had never,ever dreamed of.To end my speech,I would like to quote Rudyard Kipling again:All the people like us are WeAnd everyone else is TheyBut once you cross over the seaYou will end by looking on WeAs only a sort of They.Thank you.《英语演讲稿:穿越海洋》附送:英语演讲稿-青年人荣誉的标志英语演讲稿:青年人荣誉的标志时间自己玩。
Crossing the Sea穿越海洋Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. The title of my speech today is "Crossing the Sea" .女士们、先生们,晚上好。
今天,我演讲的题目是:《穿越海洋》。
An English poet by the name of Rudyard Kipling once wrote in this poem "We and They" :英国诗人罗得雅德·吉卜林曾写过一首诗,名叫《我们与他们》,其中写道All the people like us are We像我们的人是我们and everyone else is They其余的人是他们We live over the sea我们生活在海这边While They live over the way他们生活在路那边We eat pork and beef with cow horn-handled knives我们用牛角柄的刀叉吃猪牛肉They who gobble their rice off a leaf吞吃粽叶包饭的他们Are horrified out of their lives. 吓得要死。
When these lines first caught my eyes, I was shocked--how could two people remain so isolated and ignorant of each other in the past?第一次读到这首诗,我很震惊——过去两个民族何以如此疏离、彼此陌生?Today´s society, of course, is an entirely different picture.当然今日的社会呈现出完全不同的情景Those people who used to eat with gobble their rice might be as well have taken to fish and chips. :那些过去吃米饭的人们也开始喜欢吃鱼和薯条。

And Im quite certain that if Confucius had lived to see todays China, he would have been horrified to see young lovers kissing each 2 / 3other in public places in an unreserved expression of their passion.It is therefore evident that we as descendants of an ancient Eastern civilization are already living under strong influence of the Western culture.But it is not only in China that we find the incorporation of the two cultures.Take the United States as an example: During the 1980s, in face of the overwhelming competition from Japan, many American companies such as the Ford began to adopt a teamwork management from their rivals, the essence of which, lay at the very core of Eastern culture.3 / 3。

海洋英文演讲稿Ladies and gentlemen, good morning!Today, I am honored to stand here and talk about the topic of the ocean. The ocean, covering more than 70% of the Earth's surface, is the largest habitat on our planet. It is a source of life, a driving force for weather and climate, and a vital part of the global economy. The ocean is truly a treasure that we need to protect and cherish.First and foremost, the ocean is home to a wide variety of marine life. From the smallest plankton to the largest whales, the ocean supports an incredible diversity of organisms. It provides food and resources for millions of people around the world, and it plays a crucial role in maintaining the balance of ecosystems. However, human activities such as overfishing, pollution, and habitat destruction have put immense pressure on marine life, leading to a decline in biodiversity and the collapse of fish stocks. It is our responsibility to take action to protect the ocean and the creatures that call it home.In addition to its ecological importance, the ocean also plays a key role in regulating the Earth's climate. The ocean absorbs a large amount of the sun's heat and helps to distribute it around the globe, influencing weather patterns and climate systems. Furthermore, the ocean acts as a carbon sink, absorbing a significant portion of the carbon dioxide emitted by human activities. However, the increasing levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere have led to ocean acidification, posing a serious threat to marine life and ecosystems. We must work together to reduce carbon emissions and mitigate the impacts of climate change on the ocean.Moreover, the ocean is a valuable source of economic opportunities. It supports a wide range of industries, including shipping, fishing, tourism, and energy production. The ocean economy generates trillions of dollars in revenue and provides employment for millions of people worldwide. However, unsustainable practices and the exploitation of marine resources have led to the degradation of the ocean's ecosystems and the loss of livelihoods for coastal communities. We need to promote sustainable development andresponsible management of the ocean's resources to ensure the long-term prosperity of our planet.In conclusion, the ocean is a critical component of our planet's life support system. It sustains life, regulates the climate, and drives economic growth. However, it is facing unprecedented challenges due to human activities. We must take urgent and decisive action to protect the ocean and ensure its health and vitality for future generations. By working together, we can make a positive impact and secure a sustainable future for the ocean and all its inhabitants.Thank you for your attention. Let's join hands to protect and preserve our ocean!。
英语演讲比赛冠军穿越海洋Ladies and gentlemen,Today, I stand before you as the champion of the English speaking contest and I would like to take this opportunity to share with you my journey of crossing the ocean. Just like everyone else, I was faced with challenges and obstacles, but I learned that with determination and a strong will, we can achieve anything we set our minds to.Crossing the ocean, both figuratively and literally, was not an easy task. As I embarked on this journey, I faced countless waves of self-doubt. Would I be able to overcome the language barrier? Would I be able to compete against native English speakers? Doubts swirled in my mind like a tempestuous sea, threatening to capsized my dreams.But I refused to let those doubts drown me. I realized that the only way to conquer the ocean - both the vast body of water and the language challenge - was to dive right in. And so, armed with determination and a thirst for knowledge, I began my voyage.The first step to crossing the ocean was to immerse myself in the language. I watched English movies, read English books, and listened to English podcasts. I practiced my pronunciation and grammar every chance I got. I surrounded myself with English speakers and engaged in conversations, even if it meant stumbling over words and making mistakes. I learned that mistakes are not failures, but rather stepping stones to success.Gradually, just like a sailor navigating the sea, I became more comfortable with the ebb and flow of English. The tides of uncertainty and fear receded, and clarity washed over me. I began to feel a sense of accomplishment as I built bridges of understanding with others through this universal language.But crossing the ocean was not just about mastering the language; it was also about self-discovery and personal growth. As I sailed further into uncharted waters, I encountered storms of cultural differences and challenging situations. This journey allowed me to broaden my horizons, develop a deep sense of empathy, and appreciate diverse perspectives.The ocean became more than just a physical boundary; it became a symbol of my resilience and determination. Each wave that crashed against my ship represented a lesson learned, a moment of growth, and a reminder to keep moving forward.And now, as I stand here as the champion of this English speaking contest, I realize that crossing the ocean was not just about winning a competition. It was about breaking free from the confines of my comfort zone, defying limitations, and reaching for the stars.So, I urge all of you to embark on your own journey of crossing the ocean. Whether it's learning a new language, pursuing your dreams, or stepping out of your comfort zone, remember that the ocean only seems vast until you set sail. Embrace the challenges, navigate the unknown, and let the tides of courage and perseverance carry you towards your own triumphs.Thank you.。
英文海洋演讲稿Ladies and gentlemen, good morning!Today, I am honored to stand here and talk about the magnificent and mysterious world of the ocean. The ocean, covering more than 70% of the Earth's surface, is a vital part of our planet. It is not only home to a diverse range of marine life but also plays a crucial role in regulating the Earth's climate and providing valuable resources for human beings.First and foremost, the ocean is home to an incredible array of marine life. From the smallest plankton to the largest whales, the ocean supports a complex and interconnected ecosystem. It is estimated that more than 80% of life on Earth is found in the ocean, making it the largest habitat for living organisms. The diversity of marine life is truly astounding, and each species plays a unique role in maintaining the balance of the ocean ecosystem.Furthermore, the ocean plays a critical role in regulating the Earth's climate. The ocean absorbs a significant amount of the sun's heat, helping to stabilize the Earth's temperature. Additionally, the ocean's currents and circulation patterns play a key role in distributing heat around the globe, influencing weather patterns and climate systems. Without the ocean, the Earth's climate would be vastly different, and the planet would be much less hospitable to life.In addition to its ecological importance, the ocean also provides a wide range of valuable resources for human beings. The ocean is a vital source of food, with millions of people around the world relying on fish and other marine life as their primary source of protein. In addition to food, the ocean also provides resources such as oil, natural gas, and minerals, which are essential for many aspects of modern life. Furthermore, the ocean offers opportunities for recreation and tourism, attracting millions of visitors each year to enjoy activities such as swimming, surfing, and scuba diving.Despite its immense importance, the ocean is facing numerous threats from human activities. Pollution, overfishing, and climate change are putting immense pressure on the ocean and its delicate ecosystem. Plastic waste, in particular, has become a major issue, with millions of tons of plastic entering the ocean each year, causing harm to marine life and ecosystems. It is crucial that we take action to address these threats and protect the ocean for future generations.In conclusion, the ocean is a vast and wondrous part of our planet, and it is essential that we recognize and appreciate its importance. From its incredible biodiversity to its role in regulating the Earth's climate and providing valuable resources, the ocean is truly indispensable. It is up to all of us to take responsibility for protecting the ocean and ensuring its health and vitality for generations to come.Thank you.。
奇妙海洋:Ted英语演讲稿UnderwaterAstonishment中海洋科学探秘Ladies and gentlemen, good afternoon.It's my great honor to be here today to talk about the amazing world underneath the sea: the ocean. As we all know, the ocean covers over 70% of the Earth's surface and contains more than 95% of the world's living species. However, people still know very little about what is under the surface of the ocean and how the ocean affects our daily life. Therefore, in my speech today, I will introduce some of the mostfascinating discoveries and achievements in the field of ocean exploration in recent years.Firstly, let's talk about the ocean floor. According to the latest research, the ocean floor is much more complex and vibrant than we have ever imagined. For instance, it is home to a rich diversity of microorganisms, many of which arestill unknown to us, but have been found to play an important role in shaping the ocean's ecosystem. Moreover, the ocean floor is not a flat and barren landscape, but a mountainous and rocky terrain full of exotic creatures like giant tubeworms, deep-sea crabs, and even shrimp that can see infrared light.Secondly, the ocean is considered to be the largest carbon sink on Earth, absorbing over 25% of the carbon dioxide emitted by human activities. However, with the increase of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, the ocean's pH value has been decreasing, which is known as ocean acidification. This process has severe consequences for the ocean's ecosystem, as it can harm or even kill many marine organisms and disrupt the entire food web. Therefore, scientists are working hard to find solutions to prevent or reduce ocean acidification, including developing new technologies to capture carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and injecting it into the ocean floor.Thirdly, the ocean also plays a crucial role in regulating our climate. For example, the Gulf Stream, a warm current in the Atlantic Ocean, carries heat from the tropics to Europe and warms the continent. Without this current, the climate in Europe would be much colder and harsher. However, the Gulf Stream is also vulnerable to climate change. If the ocean temperature rises too much, it can cause the Greenlandice sheet to melt rapidly, which would disrupt the Gulf Stream and have a devastating impact on the global climate.Lastly, let me talk about one of the most exciting discoveries in the field of ocean exploration: hydrothermal vents. These vents are found on the ocean floor and emit hot water that reaches temperatures of up to 400掳C, along with many minerals and chemicals. What is even more astonishing is the fact that these vents harbor a unique and diverse ecosystem of living organisms, some of which have never been seen before. For example, giant tubeworms with a length of over 2 meters, or the "yeti crab" that has furry arms that bacteria grow on and helps the crab feed. These creatures have adapted to live in an environment that was previously thought to be inhospitable to life, and their presence has challenged our understanding of life itself.To conclude, I hope that my speech has given you an insight into the mysterious and wonderful world of the ocean. As technology advances and more resources are invested in ocean exploration, we are sure to discover more secrets and marvels in this vast and diverse ecosystem. It's our responsibility to protect and preserve the ocean for the sake of future generations, for the ocean not only provides uswith resources and energy but also gives us a sense of wonder and enchantment that can never be found elsewhere.Thank you for listening.。

good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. the title of my speech today is “crossing the sea”. an english poet by the name of rudyard kipling once wrote in this poem “we and they” :all the people like us are weand everyone else is theywe live over the seawhile they live over the waywe eat pork and beef with cow horn-handled knivesthey who gobble their rice off a leafare horrified out of their lives.when these lines first caught my eyes, i was shocked--how could two people remain so isolated and ignorant of each other in the past? today’s society, of course, is an entirely different picture. those people who used to eat with gobble their rice might be as well have taken to fish and chips. indeed, just take china as example; our modern life has been influenced by western style of living in so many ways that it’s no longer surprisingto see teenagers going crazy about rock-and-roll, whole families dining out at mcdonald’s and even rather elderly people dressed in apple jeans.however, these are only some expressions of the cultural changes taking place in our society today. what is really going on is a subtle but significant restructuring of the nation’s mentality. just look around.how many college graduates are ready to compete aggressively for every job opportunity, whereas not long ago they were asked just to sit idle and wait for whatever was to be assigned to them by the government?how many young people are now eager to seek for an independent life whereas only two decades ago they would rely totally on their parents to arrange for their future? ask anyone who participates in today’s speech contest. who has not come with a will to fight and who has not come determined to achieve self-fulfillment in winning the game? and i’m quite certain that if confucius had lived to see today’s china, he would have been horrified to see young lovers kissing each other in public places in an unreserved expression of their passion.it is therefore evident that we as descendants of an ancient eastern civilization are already living under strong influence of the western culture. but it is not only in china that we find the incorporation of the two cultures.take the united states as an example: during the 1980s, in face of the overwhelming competition from japan, many american companies such as the ford began to adopt a teamwork management from their rivals, the essence of which, lay at the very core of eastern culture.take the chinese acupuncture as another example: this traditional treatment of diseases is finally finding its way to the west and hence the underlying notion that illness is resulted from the imbalance between yin and yang within the body--an idea which would strike any westerner as incredible in the past!ladies and gentlemen, we live in a great epoch when the global integration of economy and the information revolution have brought cultures of the world closer than ever before. we live in a particular era when countries, east and west, find themselves in need of readjusting their traditional values. we live, at the same time, at a critical juncture of our evolution because such problems as ethnic conflicts and regional unrest are increasingly posing a threat to the peace and happiness of the whole human race.to cope with such an era and to embrace an even brighter future, we need to learn to live more harmoniously in a world community which is becoming smaller and smaller. my dear fellow students, our command of the english language render sit possible for us to gain an insight into western culture while retaining our own cultural identity.therefore, it is our sacred responsibility to promote the cultural exchanges and hence the mutual understanding between china and the rest of the world.it is my happiest dream that new generation of chinese will not only grow up drinking coca cola and watching hollywood, but also be blessed with the far-reaching benefits of multiple cultures; benefits that our forefathers had never, ever dreamed of.to end my speech, i would like to quote rudyard kipling again:all the people like us are weand everyone else is theybut once you cross over the seayou will end by looking on weas only a sort of they.thank you.译文:穿越海洋女士们、先生们,晚上好。
今天,我演讲的题目是:《穿越海洋》。
英国诗人罗得雅德·吉卜林曾写过一首诗,名叫《我们与他们》,其中写道:像我们的人是我们其余的人是他们我们生活在海这边他们生活在路那边我们用牛角柄的刀叉吃猪牛肉吞吃粽叶包饭的他们吓得要死。
