Title: The Power of Dreams
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, honorable judges, and fellow contestants. I am honored to stand here today and share with you a topic that is of great importance to all of us - the power of dreams.
Dreams are the fuel that drives us forward. They give us a sense of purpose, motivate us to overcome obstacles, and inspire us to achieve greatness. However, dreams are not only personal aspirations; they also hold the power to change the world.
Imagine a world without dreamers. There would be no innovative inventions, no groundbreaking discoveries, and no progress. It is the dreamers who challenge the status quo, who dare to imagine a better future, and who work tirelessly to turn their dreams into reality.
Take Steve Jobs, for example. He dreamed of creating a personal computer that would revolutionize the way we live and work. Despite facing numerous setbacks, he never gave up on his dream. Eventually, his vision became a reality with the introduction of the Macintosh computer, forever changing the landscape of technology.
Dreams also have the power to unite people. They transcend borders, cultures, and languages. Nelson Mandela, a man who fought tirelessly for equality and justice, had a dream of a South Africa free from apartheid. His dream resonated with millions of people around the world, inspiring them to join the fight for freedom and equality.
But dreams are not only reserved for the famous or the extraordinary. Each and every one of us has the power to dream and make a difference. It is through our dreams that we discover our true potential and find the courage to pursue our passions.
So, how can we harness the power of dreams in our own lives? Firstly, we must dare to dream big. Do not let fear or self-doubt limit your aspirations. Believe in yourself and your abilities to achieve greatness.
Secondly, take action. Dreams without action are merely fantasies. Set goals, make plans, and take the necessary steps to turn your dreams into reality. Remember, the journey may be challenging, but the rewards will be worth it.
Lastly, never forget the importance of perseverance. Dreams rarely come true overnight. It takes patience, persistence, and a never-give-up attitude to overcome obstacles and achieve success.
In conclusion, dreams are not just whimsical fantasies; they are powerful catalysts for change. They have the power to inspire, unite, and transform lives. So, let us embrace the power of dreams and dare to imagine a better world for ourselves and future generations. Thank you.

Title: The Importance of Cultural Exchange in a Globalized World
Good morning, esteemed judges, fellow contestants, and distinguished guests. Today, I stand before you to discuss a topic that is of utmost significance in our increasingly globalized world - the importance of cultural exchange.
Cultural exchange refers to the interaction and sharing of ideas, customs, and traditions between different cultures. It plays a crucial role in fostering understanding, tolerance, and respect among individuals from diverse backgrounds.
Firstly, cultural exchange promotes mutual understanding. By exposing ourselves to different cultures, we gain insights into the beliefs, values, and customs of others. This understanding helps to break down stereotypes, reduce prejudice, and build bridges between people who may otherwise have little in common.
Secondly, cultural exchange cultivates tolerance and respect. When we engage with different cultures, we learn to appreciate and accept differences. We realize that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to life, and that diversity should be celebrated rather than feared. This acceptance of diversity fosters a sense of unity and harmony among individuals, regardless of their cultural backgrounds.
Furthermore, cultural exchange sparks creativity and innovation. Exposing ourselves to different ideas and perspectives expands our minds and challenges our preconceived notions. It encourages us to think outside the box, embrace new experiences, and develop innovative solutions to global issues. Just look at the numerous advancements in technology, art, and science that have been inspired by cross-cultural exchanges throughout history.
In addition, cultural exchange has economic benefits. In a globalized world, businesses operate on an international scale. Understanding different cultures and customs is essential for successful business ventures. By embracing cultural exchange, individuals and organizations can tap into new markets, establish meaningful connections, and foster economic growth.
However, cultural exchange is not without its challenges. Language barriers, cultural misunderstandings, and stereotypes can hinder effective communication and hinder cross-cultural collaboration. It is crucial that we approach cultural exchange with an open mind, a willingness to learn, and a genuine desire to bridge cultural divides.
So, what can we do to promote cultural exchange in our everyday lives? Firstly, we can engage in cultural activities such as language classes, study abroad programs, and cultural festivals. These experiences allow us to immerse ourselves in different cultures and gain firsthand knowledge.
Secondly, we can foster cultural exchange through digital platforms and social media. The internet has made it easier than ever to connect with individuals from different cultures. We can engage in online discussions, share perspectives, and learn from one another.
In conclusion, cultural exchange is an essential component of our interconnected world. It promotes understanding, tolerance, and respect among diverse individuals and contributes to social, economic, and intellectual growth. Let us embrace cultural exchange and strive for a world where diversity is celebrated and differences are seen as a source of strength. Thank you.

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. 《全国大
