丰文社区演讲稿

第一篇：丰文社区演讲稿

尊敬的各位领导、各位评委：

大家好，我今天演讲的题目是《欲建“文明城”，先育“文明人”》。

我认为建设一座繁华文明的城市，人的文明意识是重要的动力。城市，是人类社会几千年文明发展史的里程碑和主线。人在建设与管理城市的过程中，不断促进各种文明要素的和谐统一，只有先有了人的文明，才会有一座城市的文明。市民作为城市的主人，也是城市的第一形象，其文明素质的高低是衡量城市文明水平的重要标尺。

陈家桥街道随着城市化进程的推进，城市的面貌正在以“一年一个样，三年大变样”的节奏发生着巨变，从过去一条街的陈家桥镇到现在高楼林立，小区纷呈的西部名街，从下田种地的农民到住进现代化小区楼房的居民，陈家桥街道正发生着翻天覆地的变化，市民也经历着身份和意识的转换。然而，市民文明意识却难以跟上城市化快速发展的步伐。激增近十万人的陈家桥街道，有近70%的市民都是从农民转市民，从城郊到城市，长期形成的小农意识、小生产者意识仍然根深蒂固。一些“新市民”公德意识、集体观念淡薄，法制意识不强，随地吐痰、乱扔乱倒，损毁市政设施，不遵守交通秩序，以及市场交易不公平、诚信缺失等问题依然存在，这与快速变化的新城市面貌是不相称的。

如何保持人的发展与城市发展的同步，实现物质文明与精神文明双重共赢？转型发展中的新城，如何提升市民素质，巩固文明创建成果，实现文明城市长效管理，真正构建文明和谐社会呢？

我认为应该从以下几个方面来逐步提高市民素质：

一、多渠道、多角度宣传，营造正确的舆论导向。

要充分利用报纸、广播、电视和互联网，以及电子显示屏、社区板报宣传栏等方式，加大对市民文明素质提升的宣传教育，通过交流评论、典型弘扬、舆论曝光等形式，最大限度地让全社会各年龄、各阶层的市民都能参与到文明行动中来，若还在我们的报纸、广场LED屏、电视上，把那些文明与不文明的行为播放出来，逐步形成市民热议的话题，让舆论引导人们树立文明意识。

二、重文、重教，形成良好的文化氛围。

在清晨和傍晚的广场，小区，路边可以看到一群群人，或是跳舞，或是舞剑，或是乐器，在他们脸上都洋溢着欢快的笑容。在好人好事的评选中，在文明家庭，文明经营户的评选中，那些得奖的人们如此的自豪，参与的人们带着羡慕的神情。文化娱乐生活不仅能带给人们以精神寄托，还潜移默化的带动人们团结自律，谦虚礼让、和睦友爱。若还把文明行为和不文明行为搬上舞台，让市民自编自演，相信更具有意义。因此我们应该多方面，多角度，多层次的开展文化娱乐活动。

三、强化环保理念，营造良好城市环境。

当我们走在干净整洁的道路上，会不自觉的捏紧手中的果皮纸屑；当我们看到花木葱郁的小区，会不自觉的绕道而行；当我们看到在健身器材旁锻炼身体的人群时，我们会发自内心的感叹“生活好了，锻炼身体很重要”。因此加大对城市基础设施的投入，营造良好的城市环境，这些都是促进市民素质提升的基础。

四、以人为本，就业与教育相结合。

“仓廪实而知礼节，衣食足而知荣辱。”新城市的建设中，我们的市民大部分是失地农民，无就业技能、无就业经验，就业就成了难题。因此有针对的开展就业技能的培训，职业操守的教育，法制的学习都是这些新市民稳定生活的重要条件。而把企业单位和社区以及街道联合起来开展文明活动，让市民不仅在家里在日常生活中接受文明教育，在工作中也接受教育，这将更加有效的提升市民的自身素质。

城市的文明，市民素质的提升，不是一时之计，也许我们需要几年、几十年、甚至是一代人的努力，可是只要我们能够从我们自己做起，从我们身边的人做起，建立长期有效的素质提升机制，相信我们市民的素质提升能够与我们城市的发展同步！让我们一起争做陈家桥文明人，共建陈家桥文明城。

我的演讲完毕，谢谢大家！

第三篇：施工现场报道 文丰掠影

文丰掠影

唐山文丰启源管业有限公司年产50万吨ERW直缝焊管项目，总投资17亿元，项目采用先进的ERW焊管成型技术，辅以固态高频焊接、在线中频焊缝热处理、在线超声波检测、水压试验工艺，使ERW直缝焊管达到无缝钢所要求的技术性能指标，满足各种中高档钢管性能要求，该项目被列入河北省重点项目。

2008年6月，管道设备安装公司中标文丰ERW焊管355生产线工程，地处唐海至曹妃甸路唐山市唐海县城南侧,青林公路东侧，场区用地面积为4.137hm2，建筑面积33879.62m2。土建混凝土工程量预计约10000立方米，钢筋量约：800t，钢结构约4000t，设备安装2000t，管道10000m。2009年8月投产使用，项目达产后，预计年销售额5.832亿元，利税0.583亿元。

到唐海文丰直缝管项目去采访，初衷既缘于公司总经理钱文光同志指导该项目会议上提出的“精细化、规范化、格式化和程序化” 管理模式，要求运作的总公司目前最大的项目。

此前，企业新闻动态里已有该项目报道：2008年12月24日，公司董事长郑绍丰和书记王小平同志冒雪来文丰项目视察工作，听取了项目部有关同志关于焊管生产线建设施工计划，在施工现场，郑董事长详细了解了工程各项工作开展情况，在听取工程进展情况汇报后，他对文丰焊管工程项目部给予了充分肯定，并对施工安全质量提出了具体要求，对下一步工作做出重要指示：第一，要建立和完善各类台帐。文丰项目是个新组建的项目，从一开始就要抓好台帐管理，按照公司规定把该建立的台帐建立起来，加强各项工作的控制。第二，要切实加强施工生产管理。文丰项目是公司历史上第一次施工焊管类的项目，要加强过程控制，加快工程进度，努力缩短工期。郑总指出，大家不要认为焊管项目不如炼钢项目，项目好不好关键在项目领导和项目管理。王书记也要求工程技术人员要“白天一把锁，晚上一盏灯”,把现场技术工作抓好，把内业资料做好。第三，要切实加强责任成本控制。外包单价不能死搬定额，要到现场去看，真正了解现场，根据现场实际进行测算。第四，要加强团结，相互补台。只有一个团结的班子，一个有战斗力的班子，才能把工作干好。班子成员之间以及部门之间都要相互配合，本着干好项目这个共同目标而努力奋斗。

时间一闪到了2009年6月，文丰项目运作情况怎样？工程进展如何？等等，都受到人们关注。为此，我们决定前往文丰工业园区，对公司在文丰市场的焊管项目进行一个较为全面的报道。

6月27日清晨，管道设备安装公司领导钱文辉前往文丰现场指导工作，我与之同行。汽车到达文丰现场，项目部总经王庆军接待了我们，略略打过招呼后，我们被告知现场项目副经理邢玉明与项目总工曾万里在施工厂房内检查。

进厂区后，“邢哥，怎么瘦了这么多？”邢玉明较之4月初在公司总部开会时我见到的样子，整个瘦了一圈。

“呵呵，最近工程上不去有点睡不好。”邢玉明爽朗的笑说道，招呼我们进入厂区一个较干净的房间落座。

曾万里一边拿纸杯，一边告诉我们：“刑经理最近因为工程进度上不去，可是没少操心。”

“应该的，应该的，大家都没少操心。”邢玉明推说着。

钱文辉毕竟是看着邢玉明成长起来的，有些心疼的说“小邢，最近这边设备不进厂，无法安装也不能怪你，身体要紧，多让小曾他们分担点，他也是把好手。”邢玉明笑了笑，向我们简单介绍了一下情况。

唐海文丰焊管项目自去年6月进点以来，受到开工建设前期道路不通和施工周边地区材料匮乏等因素影响，工期一度吃紧。

7月末，钱文辉为此进驻现场，指导项目部直接对分包施工人员、工序等进行了调整，项目迅速确定了“全面开拓作业面，以优质施工创造高品质上层建筑”的工作思路，积极筹措、精心安排，较好地克服了部分困难，项目班子成员钱文辉侧重于生产与外部协调；副经理邢玉明和总工程师曾万里分别驻扎施工区上，在现场直接抓施工进度；项目总经济师王庆军和总调度于大威也都在尽力为争取项目的最大效益默默工作。

“好歹截止8月中旬，我们项目的各单项工程都已经全面打开施工作业面。”

“在以后的施工中，各施工队伍的磨合都进入了最佳状态，为了体现我们润丰高素质高管理的企业形象，我们拿出了百分之百的精力，为前期的工程滞后打了一个漂亮的翻身仗，对于业主来说我们高质量高素质的形象是不可磨灭的。” 今年3月11日，唐山市委书记赵勇在市宣传部、唐海县政府、文丰启源有限公司领导的陪同下，亲临ERW焊管355生产线段施工现场，视察“焊管生产线”施工情况，了解施工过程中存在的问题与困难。对当前“焊管生产线”建设的进度、工程质量、安全生产情况感到满意，肯定了文丰启源有限公司和中冶润丰建设有限公司前阶段所做的工作。

“哎，说来真头痛，设备安装已接近尾声，可一台主要设备迟迟不进厂，没法进行试车，时间长了，真怕施工队伍思想涣散，铁打的形象不能因为这点小问题弄出个虎头蛇尾呀，但我们一定会保证工期，在7月底交工。” 邢玉明的笑容里多少有些无奈，但话语中却透着坚韧刚强。

“别太为难，业主造成的问题不会强加过来的，那我们的报道主要放在哪个点上呢？”我问道。

“毕竟工程现在有些小困难，项目的盈利和效益情况都还不能用前期作出的乐观判断来衡量，报道还是多反映员工精神风貌和施工项目状况的角度切入，以基层年轻人任劳任怨的精神为契机吧。”钱文辉略微思考了一下说道。我在施工技术员刘集川的陪同下，前往一处设备安装现场，一边走刘集川一边向我介绍一些具体施工情况。

“别看现在这厂房一马平川，刚开始做大型基础时，基础开挖、回填都有意识的控制到小时，更别提灌浆了，知道为什么吗？主要是遇上一场雨，就容易坍塌。”

“这里经常下雨吗？”我问。

“是的，典型的海洋气候，雨来的急，来的大，但也走的快。给我们施工造成很大的困难。尤其是土方施工。眼看着又要进入真正的雨季了，想起那时就觉得紧张，白天黑夜的看着雨，不是滋味呀。”

看着他深邃的眼神，我在镜头里给了刘集川一个特写，我们曾经在海鑫转炉炼钢项目部一起共事过，那时刚毕业的他透着朴实的干练。在工程介绍时，那神情中透露出的自信让人不由自主的要受到感染，而一旦问及他对自己工作的评价时，他的脸色微赫了，直摇头，说自己并没有把工作做得更好些，这份态度，又岂只是单纯的对工作的负责？ 安装现场，几个工人正在做设备调整和基础灌浆。十分明显地给人一种捉襟见肘的感觉：地坪都已施工完毕，平坦的地坪上兼夹摆放着零星的设备。不远处一个熟悉的身影映入眼帘，田琪正俯身做设备的精准测量，我笑着走过去招呼到“田琪，你不是资料 员吗，怎么也干起测量了。”

田琪放下手头的活过来握手“又来做采访的吧，我可是有测量证的，别不相信我的能力。这不是监理要求的严嘛，验收标准要求设备误差±0.5mm,，前些天监理考虑到这项目毕竟是国内第一次设计、制造、施工，强制要求设备误差必须达到±0.2mm，这不，调好的设备还得从新再来一遍，我和小刘这些天天天搞测量，误差太小不好调的，还要赶工期，争取过半月后联动试车。”

“那资料呢，该做交工资料了吧，你那头忙的怎么样了？”我问。

“资料按照上个月付主席和贾总的视察安排，已经做了进一步的调整，积极制定危险源、环境因素辨识预案，紧急预案；做好技术交底、安全交底，进一步做好生产技术服务工作，已经着手作交工资料的修改，争取一次性通过交工资料验收。”田琪回答的语气中流露着自信。

于此，我们得知这方面情况：

根据项目计划书，因该项目是国内设计院第一次设计，生产线主要设备是国内第一次制造，同时也是中冶润丰第一次施工此类生产线工程，三个第一无疑给工程的未知性扣上了一个大大的问号，为此，甲方代表和监理本着严格把控未知危险，再施工中祢补设计不足的原则，强制提高验收标准，无疑对中冶润丰是一次严格的挑战。文丰项目部对此表态，克服困难，打造出一个精品工程。

回到项目部，看到预算员夏梦超正在王庆军的带领下，为外协队伍彩板工程做施工结算及最后的审批。夏梦超在管道设备安装分公司两年多预结算工作中，已经成为公司得力的预算人员，先后为山西海鑫转炉炼钢工程、包头北重360项目和唐海文丰项目编制预结算；尤其在本项目的锻炼，及时参加成本分析，在实际的施工过程中，根据现场的实际情况，对定额编制的工料含量的高低水平作出适当科学合理化的调整，为该项目节约成本。

我的镜头再次对准曾万里时，已是下午5时，他正在例行会议上为项目部做每日汇报：设备，在工地各项工作要加快进度，加紧液压连接和管件设备连接，最后提出对于施工现场的安全保卫工作要加强夜间警卫工作。

会后，钱文辉用手揉了揉太阳穴，使我回想起两星期前的一段话，那是付主席和贾总等安全检查组来视察项目情况时的情景，检查组对工程提出一些文明施工要求，问他个人怎么看待项目现状时，“印象，印象十分重要。不如各位在今后的半个月内再来我们项目上感观下。”钱文辉认真的回答。

事实上，项目部的工作没有让钱文辉失言。

我仍清晰地记得上午我跟着钱文辉去工地，在厂房门口，正碰上两名监理在做现场质量检查。我的镜头里两名监理与钱文辉握手，并诚恳的说项目文明施工最近有了明显改善，整个项目的单项工程无论是安全，还是文明施工都控制得比较好。

“这也离不开你们对我们工作的大力支持啊，你们对我们报检，都是随时报随时检的。”钱文辉真诚的向监理致谢。“应该的，应该的，一个项目做下来，我们都是一个利益体嘛，呵呵。你们要多关心下基层干部，尤其是现场的年轻技术员，责任心强了，干什么都能干好。” “的确，我们做一个项目下来，不仅仅担负着经济盈利的责任，还要肩负起培养人才的使命。”钱文辉复述了一把公司年初王总书记对公司建设一再强调的观念。在文丰项目，一天的采访中，我还了解到，管道设备安装公司书记李建伟绕项目生产经营和企业改革管理中的重点、难点、疑点和热点，通过富有针对性的思想引导、现 场鼓动和组织约束，从细节抓党建工作，初见成效，员工队伍精神风貌、施工生产状态和项目内部环境呈现良好态势。在此基础上，钱文辉又结合上次检查组的意见，提出了“三个一”。“每天一巡”，项目部领导班子成员在各自分管的项目队上坚持每天都要到每一个单项工程施工点上查看进展和员工状况，把“发现问题——找出症结——解决问题”的项目工作做到“有的放矢”，有针对性地解决问题。“每天一会”是项目部扎实有效的工作方法之一，每天下班前利用15分钟时间，项目副经理邢玉明听取项目部成员汇报一天来的工作情况及现场总体情况，提高管理岗位责任心，协调各方面事宜。

“每周一谈”是项目部班子成员增强与外协队伍的凝聚力，做好“一人一事”的日常具体工作。注重与项目外协队伍思想动态交流，努力营造尊重工人，热心为施工人员排忧解难办实事，支持施工现场的和谐内部环境。

文丰项目部在钱总经理指导下和钱文辉的带领下，正朝着以良好的信誉、超值的服务、一流的质量，实现“干一项工程，赢一方信任，交一方朋友，占一片市场”的目标努力前行。

军、最具潜力选手和“澳门之星”杯三项大奖，这是清华选手自参加全国大学生英语演讲比赛以来取得的最好成绩。以下为曹丰的演讲稿：

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.How pathetic!When we grow up, we dream less and become more realistic.Why? Why do we have to change our dreams, so, so in order to let it be “fulfilled”? Why do we have to surrender to the so-called “reality”? What is the reality actually?

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 do? How did some of you get to Macao? Only 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;Disputes among different countries would never be settled as this misunderstandings and intolerance IS the reality.Ladies and gentlemen, how many of you have a dream of being able to make a lot of money? Please raise your hands.Oh, quite a number of you!Actually, ladies and gentlemen, this is not a dream, but a task.Every one of us has to make a living, right? Anyway I hope your task will be accomplished.How many of you think that you have already fulfilled your dream and that you don't dream anymore? Dear adjudicators, what do you think? C.S.Lewis once said, “You are never too old to dream a new dream.” So for our future, please dream and be unrealistic.Now that I am a university student, my goal is to graduate with excellences.But at the same time, I have a dream deeply rooted in our future.One day, people living in the areas now sweltering with the horror of wars will

able to sit with their families and enjoy their every moment.One day, people from the rich countries are willing to share what they have with those from the poor countries and those from the poor countries will eventually be able to make their own happy living themselves.One day, different cultures in this age of globalization will coexist with tolerance and the unfriendly confrontations among them will be eliminated.One day, the globe will share the dream with me and we will all contribute to making our dream come true.One day, our dream will defeat the reality!Thank you very much.主持人：Thank you.曹丰：Thand you.ASK：Now 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 books? Which method do you prefer? ANSWER：Thank you very much.And hello again ladies and gentlemen.Actually, I don't 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.”Why? Why is it the case? Why is it the situation, ladies and gentlemen? Actually, Internet or books are just like tea or coffee.They are similar, but they are different.University students nowadays 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 the Internet,right?But let's 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 it's quite dangerous for me, because I think I'm unable to answer the question in the topic ”Which method do you prefer, Internet or books?" because 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，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 the Internet and books? I prefer using both of them.Thank you very much.ASK：Contestant No.13.Thank you very much for encouraging us to be unrealistic dreamers(Thank you)and not surrender to Mr.Reality.(hehe..)With the traffic jam getting worse--especially in big cities--I'm actually very interested in your childhood dream:T o invent a device that can move people around easily.Is this still your dream? If not,why do you give it up? Is it because it is considered unrealistic? Thank you.ANSWER：Thank you very much.This is not my dream now.Not because it is(not), unrealistic.Maybe you can say it's unrealistic.But if I,my interest is still inventing this device, I will keep on trying my best to invent this decive.My changing of my dreams is because of the fact that I realized my interest does not lie in science.Now I am a law school student.But last semester, as I've just mentioned, I was working on my physics essay paper and actually last semester I was a student in the school of aerospace.Oh my god, aerospace!And I've changed my major to law school.And so the changing of my dream is actually because of the fact that I realize my interest lies in, maybe communicating with others, or having interactions with the others.Science is very fantastic, but it's not my piece of cake.Yes, so that's the reason.Thank you very much.ASK：Thank you very much for your speeches.Talding about Internet,I just want to know your view.Do you believe everything is ture on the Internet?If not,why not?

ANSWER：.Thank you very much.I don't believe everything is true in the Internet.This is a straight forward answer.And if not,why not?Because I don't 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 don't 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.ASK：Contestant No.13.Thank you very much for your speeches.You were talking about dreams being realistic or unrealistic and your current dream is to graduate from law school.But what is your realistic or unrealistic dream after that?What do you want to use your graduation in law for? ANSWER：Thank 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 I've 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 unrealistic dream after I've graduated.I think I will try my best to du what I've said before.Thank you very much.

第五篇：曹丰演讲稿

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.（personal anecdote）

How pathetic!When we grow up, we dream less and become more realistic.Why? Why do we have to change our dreams, so, so in order to let it be “fulfilled”? Why do we have to surrender to the so-called “reality”? What IS the reality actually? Ladies and gentlemen, the reality is not real.It is a barrier keeping us from all the possible fantasies.（main arguments）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 do? How did some of you get to Macau? Only 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.（counterargument）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.Ladies and gentlemen, how many of you have a dream of being able to make a lot of money? Please raise your hands.Oh, quite a number of you!Actually, ladies and

gentlemen, this is not a dream, but a task.Every one of us has to make a living, right? Anyway I hope your task will be accomplished.How many of you think that you have already fulfilled your dream and that you don't dream anymore? Dear 5)adjudicators,what do you think? C.S.Lewis once said, “You are never too old to dream a new dream.” So for our future, please dream and be unrealistic.（call to action）

Now that I am a university student, my goal is to graduate with excellences.But at the same time, I have a dream deeply rooted in our future.One day, people living in the areas now 6)sweltering with the horror of wars will be able to sit with their families and enjoy their every moment.One day, people from the rich countries are willing to share what they have with those from the poor countries and those from the poor countries will eventually be able to make their own happy living themselves.One day, different cultures in this age of globalization will coexist with tolerance and the unfriendly confrontations among them will be 7)eliminated.One day, the globe will share the dream with me and we will all contribute to making our dream come true.One day, our dream will defeat the reality!（Conclusion）Thank you very much.My Tour Agency

This morning, I would like to argue for true ecological tourism, or, ecotourism.To me, a true ecotour is a tour that allows us to express our passion for nature and for our cultural heritage.（No introduction）

I love traveling.One of my most memorable trips was climbing the Great Wall.There, I cherished seeing people of all races and ages gathered on this ancient edifice.I cherished

seeing these people smiling at each other, making way for each other, and reminding each other to watch their steps.While I love traveling, I'm also sad to see the damage tourism has done to nature and to our historical relics.Many tour agencies like to label their business “ecotours”.But they have cut down trees and filled up rivers in order to build roads, hotels and cable cars so as to attract tourists.And on their tours, some people pick flowers, catch birds and throw away food that might poison animals.This is not ecotourism at all.True ecotourism involves responsibility.While we enjoy the beauty of nature, we should also help protect it.Here let me share an experience.Once, I joined others as young volunteers in an outing.The excursion took us to the peak of a mountain where we got a beautiful view of the city.We were, however, not ordinary tourists.As we were climbing, we were also picking up the trash left on the ground by other climbers.Finally, we carried, in large bags, all the trash down the mountain.The excursion was exhausting, but I believe, after this experience, not a single one of us will ever litter any tourist spot.Moreover, when we were cleaning up the mountain slope, we caught eyes of many others.Some of them might see us as foolish, but more of them, I believe, will take note of the need to protect the environment.My experience was one of an ecotourist.We took, but we also gave.However, on the idea of ecotourism, there are many misunderstandings.I once

telephoned several travel agencies to inquire about ecotours.And here is how it went:“Hello!”

“Hi, I'm interested in the ecotour you've advertised.”

“Oh, yeah, ecotour.”

“I'm wondering if we should do anything special as ecotourists.”

“I'm sorry? Oh, nothing… Just enjoy the scenery.”

Every conversation ended up with “enjoying the scenery.” No one mentioned “protecting the wildlife,” “respecting local customs,” or “preparing a bag for garbage.” None of them made any mention of the obligation and responsibility on the part of tourists.Like other students, I have had many dreams of what I would like to do after graduation.One of these dreams is to run a travel agency.In this travel agency, I would do three things: call to action

First, I would like to have a staff of people who love nature as they love their mothers and can pass on to the customers the same kind of love.Second, I would like to let the customers appreciate the beauty of nature in those natural reservations, safari parks and wild forests, and show them how they can contribute in return for the air, water and nourishment that nature provides.Last but not least, I'd encourage the customers to work as volunteers as I once did.They would live close to nature by cleaning up the natural resorts and planting trees as mementos of their visit.I still remember when I was standing on the top of the Great Wall, I could see in some distance many bare mountains with no trees, nothing green.It is my dream that one day I would organize tours for areas that are suffering from erosion and deforestation, and we would plant trees there.Ecotourism should be an experience of learning and offering-it

should not be just seeing the famous sites and posing for photos.On the flag of my agency, I would like to print this motto:!

Take nothing away except memory;leave nothing behind except your trees.Join my tour, my dear friends!It will make China green-and make this world a better place to live.Thank you very much.What was the Topic of the speech?What was the style of Intro?Style of Body?

A student asked me a couple of questions which I answered hurriedly as I was going to another class.They were good questions, so I thought I'd restate my answers for the class.Student Question:Do we have to come up with a new argument for Body III, counter-argument?

Teacher Response:No.Remember that your counter argument in Body III is about giving a retort to a counter-argument to your topic.So, in Body I and II you have 2 arguments and supporting statements regarding your topic.This is different than Body III.In Body III you don't have to give a new argument to support your topic.In Body III,you do have to explain why the counter-argument is wrong.You can do this by using a narrative figure(ex.historical or famous person narrative)or statistics or other facts.Example-

Topic:Do your homework

Argument I:If you do your homework you will be smarter.Argument II:If you do your homework you will get a better job.Counter Argument: Some studies say, doing homework is a waste of time.A Harvard study claims that doing homework is a waste of time and you can't learn from doing homework.Retort to Counter Argument: 1)This study is wrong.Have you heard of Albert Einstein?Einstein read books and research papers and calculated formulas everynight.He called it his homework.That's how Einstein discovered the theory of relativity.OR2)Yale and Princeton studies show that doing homework for 3 hrs every night is the best way to learn.Student Question:What is the difference between my arguments(Body I&II)and my practical steps(Body IV)?

Teacher Response:topic.Your practical steps are different and they are not arguments.Example-

Topic:Do your homework

Argument I:If you do your homework you will be smarter.(General Statement)Support to Argument I:

Argument II:If you do your homework you will get a better job.(General Statement)Support to Argument II:

Counter Argument:(see above)

Practical Steps: Now that you know how doing homework will help you in life, you may ask yourself how do I do it?1)Set a daily schedule.Make a set time everynight for at least 3 hrs for study.2)Get a course curriculum from a teacher at the beginning of classes.For each chapter, Preview.Study.Review.------------------

Of course.My examples are short.In your actual speech you will have to be more detailed.Hope this helps.Cheers,Arthur
