The following is the model essay of the first prize speech of the National College English Speech Contest that I carefully edited for you. I hope it helps you! For more exciting content, please visit the relevant columns, thank you!
Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. Today I want to start with a story.
Once a physiotherapist came to Africa from the United States not far from Wan Li to conduct a general survey of mountain gorillas. These gorillas are the main reason for attracting tourists from all over the world; This makes them seriously threatened by poaching and being put in zoos. She went there out of curiosity, but what she saw strengthened her determination to fight for those beautiful creatures all her life. She witnessed a scene, which took us to a place we never imagined. In the deepest part of the African rainforest, surrounded by trees, flowers and butterflies, mother gorillas were holding their babies.
Yes, this is an unforgettable scene in one of my favorite movies, Gorilla in the Fog. This movie is based on the true story of Mrs. dian fossey, who spent most of her life in Rwanda to protect the ecological environment there until the last moment of her life.
For me, this film not only presents an unforgettable scene, but also serves as an eternal reminder that we should not develop tourism at the expense of the ecological environment.
Today, we live in a prosperous world, but we are still threatened by many new problems. On the one hand, tourism is one of the most promising industries in 2 1 century, which provides people with a good opportunity to visit all the things they should see and go anywhere they should go. It has become the lifestyle of some people and the driving force of gdp growth. It has the magic power to turn a backward town into a prosperous fairyland. But on the other hand, many problems will happen-natural scenes are no longer natural. Deforestation and heating are destroying Nepal. Oil spilled from tourist boats is polluting Antarctica. Tribal residents gave up their local music and costumes and listened to u2 with walkman instead, wearing Nike and Reebok.
All these appalling (shocking) facts make us realize that we can no longer stand by and do nothing, because this idea has been eroding our resources.
Encouragingly, the explosive growth of global tourism has made tourism once again the focus of people's attention, which is why the United Nations designated XX as the year of ecotourism, which made the world pay attention to the benefits of tourism and its ability to destroy the ecological environment for the first time.
Now every year, many local eco-environmental protection organizations receive donations from housewives, plumbers, ambulance drivers, salesmen, teachers, children and disabled soldiers-large denominations, small denominations and even coins. Some people donate even though they can't afford the money. These people drive taxis, work as nurses in hospitals and suffer ecological damage in their communities. Why? Because they care. Because they still want their mother nature back. Because they know it still belongs to them.
Ladies and gentlemen, my feeling is that when it feels like it, smells like it and looks like it, it comes from a scene to remember, a scene to remember and cherish.
One night, when I saw the moon hovering on the earth, before it disappeared, my mind was full of songs. I found myself humming softly, not to the music, but to something else, somewhere else. A remembered place, an untouched place, a meadow where no one seems to have been except deer.
All these unforgettable scenes reinforce the feeling that it is time to do something for ourselves and our next generation. I once again think of Mrs Diane Fauci-because it is with her spirit, passion, courage and strong awareness of our ecological environment that we have taken the next step towards the world.
No matter who we are, what we do and where we go, there is always a scene to remember in our minds, a scene worthy of our efforts to protect and fight for.
Thank you very much.
Thank you # 18. The topic of your impromptu speech is: which is more important to you, book knowledge or personal experience? Answer: Thank you. I remember, on the first day I entered my favorite university, one of my professors said to me? From now on, what about you? You will embark on a journey between who you think you are and who you can be. The key is to let yourself continue your journey in the ocean of books. ? I really learned a lot from books: I know Euclid's geometry and logic.
Aristotle, Aesop's fable known to children all over the world. I don't mean to offend the great authors of these books, but during my three years in college, I did realize that personal experience gained through practice is more important to me. In this global information age in which we live, economic growth and personal opportunities are based on ideas. It is so important to promise to provide everyone with a golden opportunity to develop themselves, not only for people here, but also for people around them. We are in an era of change. Communication and commerce are global, investment is fluid, technology is almost incredible, and the desire for a better life is universal now. I think this is why we are here today. We want to gain our personal experience by practicing our spoken English and share our views on tourism and ecology with all the judges and audiences. I think we are lucky to live in this historical moment. Our country has never been so prosperous, with such rapid social progress and so few internal crises. Our young people have never had the opportunity to exercise themselves like this, so we have the responsibility to build a more perfect country for our ancestors? Dream of. I think our government provides tools and conditions for our young people to build our dream future. Even if we know some rules, regulations or experiences from books, we still can't simply transplant them to today? This is a busier, more impersonal and more complicated world. On the contrary, the challenge we face is to agree on the values and common vision of what we can do individually and collectively today to build a strong family and a strong community, and most importantly, to make the world a better place for us to live. Thank you very much. Contestant # 18, in your speech, you talked about ecotourism. Can you explain to us the difference between ordinary tourists and electronic tourists or eco-tourists?
Answer: Thank you for your question. I think the key problem is the difference in our consciousness. For example, if you want to travel to a place, enjoy your trip. I think before you get on the bus, you can realize. Me? I am not a polluter, but an environmentalist. ? we? We went to those scenic spots not to destroy those beautiful scenery, but to thank nature for giving us so many things. Thank you very much.
Contestant # 18, now people in China are more and more accessible to information technology. Do you think books will become less and less important?
Answer: Well, I think maybe, well, I don't know? I don't think all these technologies can replace the importance of books. we? Where do you have so many new industries in our modern village? Information industry, tourism? The world can no longer be defined as a place on a map or a person in an organization, but I think the real value and the essence of our village are still the same. It is the network of value relations that supports our life. We can learn these things from books, because books are the first beginning stage of our study. Thank you very much.
Me? I want to ask you a question about your prepared speech. You mentioned that the United Nations declared XX years, I think so. Ecotourism year. ? Do you think this gesture is really useful? A: I think one of my teachers told me that when I prepared my prepared speech, he told me that if we pay more attention to things like environmental protection or eco-tourism, we'd better remember that we should learn something in our hearts, and we should have some awareness about how to respect our environment more, not verbally, but mentally. Follow our hearts and our environment will be better. I really appreciate it．
