中英文奧運演講稿:綠色奧運我參與

　　I am the part of the Green Olympics

　　Ladies and gentlemen:

　　good morning!

　　Today, my speech is "I am the part of the Green Olympics".

　　"Green Olympics" is one of the Three Themes of Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. Therefore the Beijing government had made a great effort in order to protect the environment, build more "Green project", keep the ecological balance, push the recycling economy, and protect the water resource. But if only the government take the action to realize the Green Olympics in 2008, it’s not enough. As a Beijing high school student, we should play an active role in the actions aimed at the realization of Green Olympics. So we should start it from ourselves, our family, our friends and other people around us.

　　In 2001, in the Moscow world trade center, when the former chairman of the International Olympic Committee, Samaranch had said: "Beijing, China!" As a Beijing citizen, as a Chinese, I had a great joy for my city, for my home country from the bottom of my heart! But after the excitement that Beijing had been succeed in the race to host the Olympic Game in 2008. I started to worry about the dusty air, the sandstorm, the polluted rivers and lakes; the streets without any green and whether we could successfully host the Olympic Games in 2008.

　　Four years later, today, we can see 229 day blue sky in one year, we can hardly catch a glimpse of the sandstorm, groups of wild duck comes back to Shishahai Lake in the spring, and all the streets are dressed in green. All these make me deeply believe that Beijing will surely succeed in 2008! And all these achievements are not only the result that made by the Beijing government, but also by the 14 millions Beijing citizens. As one of the 14 millions normal citizens, I am also adding my contribution to our Green Olympic!

　　I used to have a habit, which is to take two longtime showers every day. It was a big waste of water. One day, I saw a piece of news in Beijing Daily that about the lack of the Beijing water resource. It’s said every year Beijing use up about 3.7 billions cubic meter of water. But Miyun reservoir only contains 0.77 billions cubic meter of water, and Guanting reservoir only contains 0.19 billion cubic meter of water. This shows we are really short of water now! After reading this news, Istart to change my habit, and only take one quick shower each day. I have calculated that if everyone economizes one cubic meter of water during they are taking the shower in a month; the Beijing citizens will economize 14 million cubic meter of water in only one month! In 2004, as the Beijing Irrigation Apartment reported that since 2001 Beijing has succeeded in the application of hosting the Olympic game in 2008. Beijing government had started 26 programs in order to economize the water resource. After 3 years doing this, these programs have saved 0.437 billions cubic meter of water. It’s as big as a four-sized Huairou reservoir! And now, in my daily life, in my family, we always think about protecting the environment and saving the resource whenever we doing what. The batteries, the aged newspapers, the empty glass bottles and all the recyclable garbage, we will classify them then put them in different trash cans; we make the most use of the nature light and shut off the electrical light conveniently; and when we shopping, we will bring a nylon bag with us instead of plastic bags; during the feast, I do not send any card in order to protect the forest resource; after washing the clothes, we won’t dump the used water but use it to flash the toilet… All in all, we should start from every little thing around us to truly realize the "Green Olympic".

　　I still remember clearly that in the Athens 2004 Olympic Games, when Liu Xiang stood up on the award platform, he was wearing a coronet, which made by olive branch. Does this green olive branch stand for the "Green Olympic" Olive branch is the symbol of peace, and the Olympic Game is the carrier of the "peace". We should not just simply think, "No war is the meaning of peace". "Nature and human beings living in harmony" is also the root meaning of "peace". "Save the resource, protect the environment", this kind action of pursuing "Nature and human beings living in harmony", is the way that shows the core of the Olympian spirit. So we say, peace is the spirit of Olympic, Olympic is the carrier of peace, and "Green Olympic" means that we are standing in a higher platform to seek the peace.

　　So the "Green Olympic" should be started from every little things in our daily life, start form me, from the people that around me. Express the spirit of Olympic, publicize the theme of "Green Olympic", and let Beijing really reaches the "Green Olympic" in 2008. This is the responsibility of anyone who loves peace. And it is also the responsibility of our Beijing high school students!

　　Thank you!

　　綠色奧運我參與

　　尊敬的各位評委們、女士們、先生們：

　　大家好！今天我演講的題目是"綠色奧運我參與"。

　　綠色奧運是北京2008 年奧運會的三大理念之一。為此北京市政府無論是在環境的治理、綠化的建設、生態的保護、循環經濟和水資源的保護與利用，都做了大量的工作。但實現"綠色奧 運"僅僅靠政府行為是遠遠不夠的，作為北京的中學生更應該積極的投身到"綠色奧運"的建設與宣傳當中去。從我做起，從我的家庭做起，從我身邊的朋友、同學 做起。

　　2001年，當前國際奧委會主席薩馬蘭奇在莫斯科高聲宣讀："Beijing， China"的時候，作為一個北京人，一個中國人，我發自心底的為我們的祖國，我們的首都感到高興。但在高興之餘，那灰濛濛的天空，那漫天的沙塵暴，那污 綠的護城河，那見不到一絲綠色的街道，又使我深為北京能否在2008年成功辦好奧運而感到擔心。

　　四年之後的今天，一年之中有了229天湛藍的 天空，那滾滾的黃塵也早已不見，那一群群久違的野鴨也在春天飛回了北京的什剎海，街道也被綠色裝點的生機勃勃。這一切不知不覺的變化都在回答着我，北京一 定能辦好2008年的奧運！而所有這些變化不僅僅是北京市政府的努力，更是在政府領導下的無數北京市民們努力的結果。作為這一千多萬普通北京市民的一員， 我也在為我們的綠色奧運貢獻出自己的一份力量。

　　以前我曾有個習慣，每天早晚沖澡兩次，而且沖洗時間特別長，很浪費水。一天，我在北京日報上看 到了一則關於北京水資源短缺的文章，說北京市每年用水量大概是37億立方米，而密雲水庫的蓄水量僅有7.7億立方米，官廳水庫的蓄水量僅有1.9億立方 米，水資源的供需矛盾十分尖銳。看到這則報道后，我開始改變我的習慣，每天只洗一次澡，盡量在很短的時間內洗完。我算了一筆帳，每人每月洗澡節約一噸水， 北京市1400萬人口將節約1400萬噸水。據北京市水利局2003年統計數字錶明，從2001年申辦奧運成功后，開始實施市政府制定的26項節水措施， 3年來節水達到4.37億立方米，相當於4個懷柔水庫。現在，在我的生活中，在我的家庭里，環保、節約的思想和行為時常都有體現。電池、報紙、玻璃瓶、油 壺等可回收物，我們是分別處理、存放；購物、買菜的口袋使用尼龍口袋，基本不使用塑料袋；洗衣的水重複使用於沖洗馬桶……而實現綠色奧運也正是應該從身邊 的這些小事做起。

　　我們清楚的記得在2004年的雅典奧運會上，當劉翔登上領獎台時，他頭上戴了一個由橄欖枝編成的頭環。這綠色的橄欖枝不 正是代表着"綠色奧運"嗎？橄欖枝象徵著和平，而奧運正是傳遞"和平"的載體，我們不能簡單的理解"沒有戰爭就是和平"。"人與自然和諧相處"也是"和平 "最本質的含義。"節約資源、保護環境"這種追求"人與自然和諧相處"的具體行為正是奧林匹克精神的具體體現。所以我們說：和平是奧運的靈魂，奧運是和平 的載體，綠色奧運是我們從更高的境界在追求和平。當偉大的精神被"平凡"廣泛的具體化以後，這種精神就被弘揚和光大了。

　　看來"綠色奧運"應該從點滴做起，從我做起，從我周邊的人做起。弘揚奧林匹克精神，宣傳綠色奧運理念，讓2008北京奧運真正做到"綠色奧運"。這正是每一個愛好和平、追求和平人們的義不容辭的責任。也是我們北京中學生的一種思想境界和追求。

　　我的演講結束，謝謝大家！
