im grateful that ive been given this opportunity, at such a historic moment, to stand here as a spokesman of my generation and to take a serious look back at the past 15 years, a crucial period for every one of us and for this nation as well.
though it is only within my power to tell about my personal experience, and only a tiny fragment of it at that, it still represents, i believe, the root of a spirit which has been essential to me and to all the people bred by the past 15 years.
in my elementary years, there was a little girl in the class who worked very hard but somehow could never do satisfactorily in her lessons. the teacher asked me to help her, and it was obvious that she expected a lot from me. but as a young boy, restless, thoughtless, i always tried to evade her so as to get more time to enjoy myself.
one day before the final exam, she came up to me and said, could you please explain this to mei want very much to do better this time. i started explaining, and finished in a hurry. pretending not to notice her still confused eyes, i ran off quickly. nat surprisingly, she again did very badly in the exam. and two months later, at the beginning of the new semester, word came of her death of blood cancer. no one ever knew about the little task i failed to fulfill, but i couldnt forgive myself. i simply couldnt forget her eyes, which seem to be asking, why didnt you do a little more to help me, when it was so easy for youwhy didnt you understand a little better the trust placed in you, so that i would not have to leave this world in such pain and regreti was about eight or nine years old at that time, but in a way it was the very starting point of my life, for i began to understand the word responsibility and to learn to always do my duties faithfully and devotedly, for the implications of that sacred word has dawned on me: the mutual need and trust of people, the co-operation and inter-reliance which are the very foundation of human society.
later in my life, i continued to experience many failures. but never again did i feel that regret which struck me at the death of the girl, for it makes my heart satisfied to think that i have always done everything in my power to fulfill my responsibilities as best i can. words like individuality and creativity are getting more emphasis and more people are rewarded for their hard work and efforts. such is the era in which this generation ,grows and matures.
such is the era in which this generation will take over the nation from our fathers and learn to run it. yet in the meantime, many problems still exist.
we learn that crimes take place in broad daylight with crowds of people looking on and not assisting. we hear that there are still about 1 million
children in this country who cant even afford to go to elementary schools while enormous sums of money are being squandered away on dinner parties and luxury cars.
we buy shoddy medicines, or merely worthless junk in the name of medicines, that aggravate, rather than alleviate our diseases since money, many people believe, is the most important thing in the world that must be made, even at the expense of morality and responsibility. such an era, furthermore, demands, that we are a generation with a clear perception of our historical responsibility and an aggressive will to take action and solve the problems. history has long been preparing these qualities in this generation and it is now calling us forward to give testimony to our patriotism and heroism towards this nation and all humanity.
standing here now, i think of the past 15 years of my life as an ordinary student. probably ill be an ordinary man for the rest of my life. but this doesnt discourage me any, for i know that with my sense of responsibility and devoted efforts to always strive, for the best, its going to be a meaningful and worthwhile life that i will be living. i cant ever forget that little girl in my class who couldnt had the same opportunities as any of us here to enjoy a wonderful life today and a hopeful world tomorrow.
it is the sacred responsibility of this generation to face up to the challenges of the new century and to devote our sweat and blood, our wisdom and passion, to the historic cause of making this nation a greater and happier land for every one of us.
we are not going to evade that responsibility. we are going to let people down. and people, far and near, will hear of us. frost will be brought to their backbones and tears to their eyes when our stories are told and retold, so let us go forth, my fellow members of this luckily chosen generation, and meet the new century in victory and glory.at£oè1ú′óéúó¢óó¢óY2±èèüμúò1Yí Y2

a scene to remember
gu qiubei
shanghai international studies university
advisor: gong longsheng
good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. today i would like to begin with a story.
there was once a physical 1) therapist who traveled all the way from america to africa to do a 2) census about mountain 3) gorillas. these gorillas are a main attraction to tourists from all over the world; this put them severely under threat of 4) 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 weve ever been, where in the very depth of the african rainforest, surrounded by trees, flowers and butterflies, the mother gorillas 5) cuddled their babies.
yes, thats a memorable scene in one of my favorite movies, called gorillas in the mist, based on a true story of mrs. dian fossey, who spent most of bet 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 6) timeless reminder that we should not develop the tourist industry at the cost of our ecoenvironment.
all these 7) appalling(áèeaμ) 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 8) eroding(ê′) our resources. encouragingly, the explosive growth of global travel has put tourism again in the spotlight, which is why the united nations has made 2002 the year of ecotourism, for the first time to bring to the worlds attention the benefits of tourism, but also its capacity to destroy our ecoenvironment.
now every year, many local ecoenvironmental protection organizations an: receiving donations--big notes, small notes or even coins--from housewives, 9) plumbers(1ü1¤è), ambulance drivers, salesmen, teachers, children and 10)invalids(2D2è), some of them can not 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. whybecause they care. because they still want their mother nature back. because they know it still belongs to them.
the other night, as l 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 some- thing else, someplace else. a place
remembered, a place untouched, a field of grass where no one seem to have been except the deer.
and no matter who we are, what we do and where we go, in our mind, theres always a scene to remember, a scene worth our effort to protect it and fight for it.
thank you very much.aèy£oè1úó¢óY2±èèüòμè±,a′ó2ü·á ó¢óY2
our future: a battle between dreams and reality
good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen:
when i was in the primary school, i have a dream. i want to invent a device which could bring you from one place to another in no time at all. when i was in the secondary school, my dream was to study in
my ideal university. and when eventually i got into the university, my dream was to graduate.
ladies and gentlemen, the reality is not real. it is a barrier keeping us from all the possible fantasies. flying, for example, had been a dream to mankind for thousands of years. a hundred years ago, man could not fly was still regarded as the reality. now if that was really the reality, what did the wright brothers dohow did some of you get to macauonly when we believe that the reality is not real can we soar with our dreams.
people say that our future is a battle between the reality and our dreams. and if, unfortunately, mr. reality wins this war, then i see no future of mankind at all. aids will never be curable as this is the reality; people living in the undeveloped countries will suffer from starvation forever as this is the reality; 4)disputes among different countries would never be settled as this misunderstandings and intolerance is the reality.
÷3è£othank you.
2ü·á£othank you.
êìa£onow in the age of the internet,reading books does not seem as important as it once was.do you think people can learn as much on the internet as they can by reading bookswhich method do you prefer ′e£othank you very much.and hello again ladies and gentlemen.actually,i dont really agree with the first sentence of this topic:in the age of the internet,reading books does not seem as important as it was once.whywhy is it the casewhy is it the situation,ladies and gentlemenactually,internet or books are just like tea or coffee.they are similar,but they are different.unibersity students nowdays love to use the internet to search for information when they are working with their essays.like,last semester,when i was working with my physics essay,i logged into google and i searched for newton and all the laws and theories of newton just popped out and i can choose whichever one i like to use.but when i walked into the library,all the books came out and i have to choose which one to read.how inconvenient!maybe you can say at this moment,oh,internet is better,books no use.so i have to use internet,rightbut lets see the things in another way.i love traveling a lot and i love to bring a book with me.and i love to read my da vinci code when i was having my trip on a bus or on a ship.actually,whenever it is,wherever you go,whatever you are doing,you can take out a book and read if you feel like doing so.now who will bother to take a laptop and switch it on,and search for the internet connection,and look for stories to read.how inconvenient!so at this very moment i think its quite dangerous for me,because i think im unable to answer the question in the topicwhich method do you prefer,internet or booksbecause i love the feeling of
conjuring a hundred pages of harry potter,more than scrolling down the screen;but at the same time i love the feeling of searching the things,the speed of my searching for things on the internet,more than wasting my time in the library.so in this age of internet,in this age of modernization,in this age of civilization,why do you have to force someone to choose between internet and booksi prefer using both of them.thank you very much.
êìa£ocontestant no.13.thank you very much for encouraging us to be uealistic dreamers(thank you) and not surrender to mr.reality.(hehe..) with the traffic jam getting worse--especially in big cities--im actually very interested in your childhood dream:to invent a device that can move people around easily.is this still your dreamif not,why do you give it upis it because it is considered uealisticthank you. êìa£othank you very much for your speeches.talding about internet,i just want to know your view.do you believe everything is ture on the internetif not,why not
′e£othank you very much.i dont believe everything is true in the internet.this is a straight forward answer.and if not,why notbecause i dont believe them.and i have an experience of meeting someone on the internet who claims to be a girl.yes and,a very sad,sorry story for me.but yes,for this reason,i think i dont believe that everything on the internet is true.but i will try my best to discover if that was true or not,or that was falsified or not.thank you very much.
êìa£ocontestant no.13.thank you very much for your speeches.you were talking about dreams being realistic or uealistic and your current dream is to graduate from law school.but what is your realistic or uealistic dream after thatwhat do you want to use your graduation in law for′e£othank you very much.actually,my dream,as mentioned in the last part of my speech,is to share my feelings,share my dreams with the globe.and when all the people in this earth have my dream,they will work hard for the social betterment,i believe in that.so after ive graduated from law school,i think i will try my best to persuade the others to,to accept my dream,and that is exactly why i am here.i am here trying to persuade you all,i think you all,after listening to my speech,hopefully,you can try to understand my dream and that we are all a member of the global village,and we have to try our best to work hard for the social betterment of all.this is why i want to be,saying,speaking something here,and that is my goal--or realistic or uealistic dream after ive graduated.i think i will try my best to du what ive said before.thank you very much.
