1、 演讲稿:自然是我们的母亲By Tan Ying(谭英 湖南大学) 专家点评:文章开头较有新意，全文贯穿环保意识，主题鲜亮、有剧烈的时代感。 Let me begin my speech with a replay of scenes familiar to most, if not all, of those present here today. “Mum, I”m sorry, but I need 3,000 yuan for my tuition this year.“ “Mum, it is my friend”s birthday tomorrow, I must buy her
2、 a present.“ “Mum, this jacket was out of fashion long ago, would you do me a favor? “ Take. Take. Take. The relationship between a mother and a child always seems to follow such a pattern. I know my mother is always there for me, providing me with everything I need; from food to clothing, from tuit
3、ion to pocket money. I never thought twice about all she did until one day she said, “Will there be a time that you”ll say you have taken enough from me? “ Like a child endlessly asking, we humans, throughout history, have been continually demanding what we desire from nature. We enjoy the comfort a
4、nd beauty of our furniture, yet we never bother to think about the serious soil erosion caused by deforestation. We take it for granted that we must warm ourselves in winter times, yet we seldom realize the burning away of precious natural resources. We appreciate all the prosperity from the develop
5、ment of modern industry, yet few would give the slightest consideration to the global air and water pollution caused by industrial wastes. Our ruthless exploitation has permanently impaired our mother earth. As we tragically learned from last summer”s floods. we cannot continue our carelessness. Fin
6、ally, standing here at the threshold of the 21st century, we cannot help thinking of our posterity. Nature is not only the mother of the present generation, but also the mother of the generations to come. How severely our descendents will criticize us if we leave them a barren and lifeless mother? H
7、ow much more they will appreciate us if we give them a world of harmony to inherit? Let us start respecting and caring for nature from now on. Let us start the campaign of creating a mutually beneficial relationship between people and nature right from this moment. With this new start, I firmly beli

9、。母亲和孩子的关系好像永久都是这一种形式。我知道母亲总是我的靠山，给我一切需要的东西，从食物到衣服，从学费到零用钱。我觉得她所做的一切都是理所固然的，直到有一天，她说:“会不会有这么一天你对我说我已经索取够了? 就像孩子无止境的要求一样，我们人类，从古到今，也始终在向自然索求以满意欲望。我们享受家具的漂亮与舒适，但我们从来就不愿去想一想由于采伐树林而引起的严峻的土壤侵蚀问题。我们认为冬天要取暖是理所固然的事情，却未曾意识到珍贵的自然资源就这样被烧掉。我们快乐地看到现代工业进展带来了富强，但很少人会对由于工业废物导致的全球空气和水质污染问题稍加考虑。我们无情的剥削已经永久地损害了地球母亲。我们从去年夏天的洪灾悲剧中已经熟悉到，我们不能再连续漠不关怀下去了。 最终，站在21世纪的门槛上，我们不禁展望着富强兴盛。自然不仅是现在这一代人的母亲，更是将来一代人的母亲。假如我们留给他们的是一位贫瘩、毫无生气的母亲，那么我们会受到子孙们何等严峻的批判?假如我们留给他们的遗产是一个和谐的世界，他们会对我们作出何等的赞扬?让我们从现在开头敬重、关爱自然。让我们立即开展一场建立人类与自然互惠互利关系的运动。我坚信，有了这个新的开头，我们的孩子、孩子的孩子必将生活在一个绿树青葱、空气清爽、水碧天蓝的崭新世纪，一个前景更加绚烂的世界!
