1、3分钟英语演讲稿：milkman vs mailman下面是XX为你精心编辑整理的3分钟英语演讲稿：milkman vs mailman，希望你能喜欢with the development of science and technology, change has penetrated into every aspect of our daily life. to illustrate that, id like to make a parison of these two seemingly insignificant things: milkman and mailman, whose
2、differences indicate our changing way of living with the times.home milk delivery has almost gone extinct in china now, also gone with it are the milkmen, who once delivered bottled fresh milk door-to-door. on the other hand, mailmans business or the courier service has thrived as online shopping ga
3、ins popularity. however, in retrospect, i find something has been lost in this transition, something shakespeare called as “the milk of human kindness”。when i was a kid, milk wasnt for sale everywhere. for the families who need it, they depended on the milkmen to take it from the local dairy farms t
4、o their houses. in our neighborhood, there was such a milkman, whose arrival was much anticipated by the children and always brought us laughter and joy. he knew the name of every kid and could easily see through our tricks. if we didnt behave, he would side with our parents and threaten to rob us o
5、f the nutritious drink. the entire neighborhood was acquainted with him; saw him as a member of the munity just like the many residents or street vendors. there was a bond between all of us for it was not only the modities that been transacted, but also a sense of caring and dependability. and that
6、small box fixed onto our door, other than being a drop-off point for milk; it was a munication junction between the people as we took the initiative to reach out to others.fast forward to today, milk is ubiquitous with no dedicated delivery system. but the convenience level of our live has gone up a
7、 notch. almost everything is for sale online, which spares us all the travelling and talking. with a few ready clicks, shopping is done. the rest is left for those speed delivery panies. usually its a grumpy mailman, who reaches us through cell phone, urging everyone to pick up their parcels as soon
8、 as possible. and the minute the receipt is signed, we rush back to unpack while the courier dashes to the next destination. there is barely a conversation carried out, nor do we feel the need to talk to such a stranger, who changes from time to time frequently. it seems that people are always in a
9、hurry now, though we have more conveniences, still we run short of time to stop and stare, to speak and share.call me an old-timer, but i think the personal touch represented by the milkman is what has been missing in the modern society. william wordsworth once wrote that “getting and spending, we l
10、ay waste our powers.” modern technology may have multiplied our possessions or gave us more conveniences, but we run the risk of reducing our values if we lay waste our power of interpersonal relationships.随着科学技术的发展，变化已经渗透到我们日常生活的方方面面。要说明的是，我想让这两个看似不起眼的东西比较：牛奶，邮递员，其差异表明我们与时代生活方式的改变。家里的牛奶几乎已经灭绝，现在在中国
11、，它也消失了的送奶工，曾送瓶装草原鲜奶送货上门。另一方面，邮递员的业务或快递服务的蓬勃发展，网上购物的普及。然而，回想起来，我发现在这一转变中，有了一些东西，莎士比亚称之为“人类之奶”。当我还是个孩子的时候，牛奶不是到处都卖。对于那些有需要的家庭来说，他们只能依靠送奶工把它从当地的乳品农场房子。在我们的附近，有这样一个送牛奶的人，他们的到来，是孩子们期待已久的，总是给我们带来笑声和欢乐。他知道每一个孩子的名字，可以很容易地通过我们的把戏。如果我们不守规矩，他会和我们的父母一起威胁要抢我们的营养饮料。整个社区都与他熟识，他认为他是社会上的一员，就像许多居民和街头小贩一样。有一个我们之间的结合不仅
12、是被交易的商品，也有关心和信任。和那个小盒子固定在我们的门，而不是一个下降点牛奶，它是一个沟通的人之间的交界处，我们采取了主动接触其他人。快速前进到今天，牛奶是无处不在的没有专门的交付系统。但是我们的生活便利程度已经上升了一个缺口。几乎所有的东西都在网上出售，这使我们所有的旅行和谈话都有了。用几点准备，购物就完成了。其余的则是留给那些快速交货的公司。它通常是一个脾气暴躁的邮递员，他通过手机与我们联系，希望每个人都拿起他们的包裹尽快。和一分钟的收据签字，我们赶回来打开而快递冲到下一个目的地。我们几乎没有进行一次谈话，也不觉得有必要对这样一个陌生人说话，他经常改变时间。似乎人们总是在匆匆忙忙的现在，虽然我们有更多的方便，但我们却没有时间停下来盯着，说，分享。叫我老古董，但我认为送奶工为代表的个人风格是什么一直在现代社会中失踪。华兹华斯威廉曾写道：“获取和消费，我们浪费我们的权力。”现代科技可能会增加我们的财产，或者给我们更多的便利，但是我们冒风险的减少我们的价值，如果我们浪费我们的人际关系的力量。
