记得我大学时，疯狂练习口语，当时找到了顾秋蓓的演讲，此篇演讲水平很高，她也获得了当时爱立信杯全国大学生演讲比赛冠军，我模仿了她的发音，并且整篇演讲我倒背如流，以后参加的很多演讲比赛均用这篇讲稿，当然得了不少奖。 后来参加了一个演讲比赛，决赛时被一位给克林顿做过口译的英语老师发现了，结果出局，呵呵。现在已经没有当年的激情了。 不过还是分享出来，希望对爱好者有用，我的建议是，这篇演讲适合背诵和模仿，尤其是她的发音和连读，很值得模仿。 http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XNDU5NzA4MzI=.html 顾秋蓓：1981年出生于上海。上海外国语大学国际经济贸易管理学院国际会计专业99级学生，获得管理学学士学位。后跨专业直升上外英语语言学文学专业，攻读硕士学位。2003年获得第八届“21世纪·爱立信杯”全国英语演讲比赛冠军。在顾秋蓓看来：语言不是找到好工作、有个好前途的工具，而是一种文化与智慧的外现。语言，为你打开一片广阔灿烂的新天地。从语言中，你可以学到许许多多超出语言之外的东西。在这样一种潜移默化、润物细无声般的过程中，你的思想、你的智慧会得到不断的提升和完善。 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 we've 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, that's 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. 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 is devastating Nepal. Oil spills from tourist boats are polluting Antarctica. Tribal people are forsaking their native music and dress to listen to U2 on Walkman and wear Nike and Reeboks. All these 7) appalling(令人震惊的) 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(侵蚀) 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 world's 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(水管工人), ambulance drivers, salesmen, teachers, children and 10) invalids(残疾人), 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. Why? Because they care. Because they still want their Mother Nature back. 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 remember, a scene to recall and to cherish. 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 all those unforgettable scenes strengthened the feeling that it's lime for us to do something, for our own and our coming generation. Once again, I have come to think of Mrs. Dian Fossey be- cause it's 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 mind, there's always a scene to remember, a scene worth our effort to protect it and fight for it. Thank you very much.
