2004全国英语演讲比赛第四名王冠演讲稿
Five years ago,I went to the Sunshine Coast,in Australia and took my first advanture to an underwater world,at the beginning I had a hard time adapting my eyes to the water pressure,but after a while,when I open my eyes again,I was in a paradise!I was amazed at the brilliance of the tropical fish,the beauty of the sea horses and the awesome power of the sharks.Although safe with my instructor,I strongly felt the impending force of sharks and it made me muzzled.
How can those smaller fishes survive?Alongside this apparently dominant species?But later I saw what’s really happening,the smaller fishes were living off the ferocious sharks by eating their dead skin and waste,with each needing the other to survive.The structor then told me it’s only through the co-existence of different species that is under water paradise can stay so wonderful.
That experience in australia five years ago,left me with a strong desire our human world to also become so peaceful and harmonious,I know it may take a long time to realize my dream,but today I want to share with you my tow hopes to perhaps make it come sooner.
My first hopes is the beijing olympics will bring the whole world together under the banner of one world one dream.Two years ago in Athens olympics,the Iraqi soccer team made history by qualifying for the semifinal for the first time.That struck the world,because sports could maintain such a privileged position in the heart of a country even devastated by war,fragmented by battles for power,the sporting spirit displayed by Iraqi soccer players reminded us of something larger than hatred.Something larger than power and something larger than our difference,I hope the beijing olympics will again tell the whole world,that the power of love can overcome the love of power and tell the whole world that our difference matters,but our common humanity matters more.I also hope the communication between the nations can extend to culture and art.Now there are many western people are enchanted by the Chinese music like the twelve girls band,and many Chinese are struck by the western music.So how about the two joining hands in a round-world tour every year.Performing on one stage to the world’s audience.
And recently China celebrated the Year of Russia,we have the Russian ballet,opera,classical music broadcasted on our TV,and the next year will be the Year of China in Russia.I hope there will be more cultural exchanges of such kind so the communication of many different nations will be enhanced.
It seems like only yesterday when I look back at the underwater paradise,it offers me a timeless reminder that our best future lies in hormonious coexistence of many different nations and many different cultures.
Let’s remember what Mahatma Gandhi once said,that no nation and no culture in this world can live if it attempts to be exclusive.And so,let us remember,no matter whether we are from the east or west south or north,the one true direction for all of us should be towards each other.
