迎奧運(yùn)演講稿:行動(dòng)起來，為北京添彩

　　Creating a brilliant Beijing: Time for Action

　　Ladies and Gentlemen:

　　My topic is on creating a brilliant Beijing: Time for Action

　　2008 is such a common number, but many Chinese will get excited when they mention it. How can a common number attract such a strange fascination? The answer is simple and obvious: the twenty-ninth Olympic Game will be held in Beijing in the year 2008. At that time, the whole world will focus their attentions on Beijing. As the hostess, Beijing will show her beauty to the guests from all over the world.

　　The Beijing Olympic Games will be a Green Olympic, a high technology Olympic, and a people's Olympic. Among them, a Green Olympic is the most important concept. It will show the world the determination, the ability, and the confidence of the Chinese people and their government to successfully hold a Green Olympic. To achieve such a goal, however, it needs a lot of hard work.

　　As middle school students in Beijing, we should take on more responsibilities for our capital city's environment. Any action we take will affect the appearance of the city. Therefore, we should start with ourselves, act now, and make every possible effort. But how? You may ask.

　　There are a lot of things we can do in our daily lives. We all know the fact that

　　Beijing is frequently assaulted by sand storms every year. Forests and lands have been degraded by agricultural and industrial activities. To revive those desert lands is beyond our ability, but we can plant trees around our schools or in our neighborhood communities. If everybody does so, there will be a green Beijing and we will have a Green Olympic.

　　I don't know whether you've noticed that some students don't want to walk to school; their parents have to drive them to school every day. But nowadays, the air is polluted with automobile exhausts. What can we do about it? Ride on your bike to school and enjoy exercise! It will not only have significant benefits for your health, but also help improving our environment. In addition, if you don't drive cars, you will not go to the car wash. That will save large amount of water. If everybody does something, there will be a green Beijing and we will have a Green Olympic.

　　Think it over, my friends. The things we can do are definitely not unrealistic. Although we cannot provide with a clean energy source, achieve a better sewage treatment system, or stop any industry from using hazardous chemicals and releasing hazardous wastes, we can save every drop of water and protect every patch of green. Make Beijing a more beautiful city, where green patches are everywhere and blue sky can be seen clearly above our heads.

　　A Green Beijing Olympic is asking for action. Act now.

　　Thank you!

　　行動(dòng)起來，為北京添彩

　　2008，一個(gè)再普通不過的數(shù)字，但是，一提到它，會(huì)讓多少中國人熱血沸騰！一個(gè)數(shù)字怎么會(huì)有如此大的魔力？答案是簡單而神圣的，在這一年里，北京將舉辦第29屆奧林匹克運(yùn)動(dòng)會(huì)，那時(shí)，世界的目光將齊聚北京，而北京，也將以主人的身份，展現(xiàn)她最美麗的風(fēng)采！

　　2008，北京的奧運(yùn)將是一屆綠色的奧運(yùn)、科技的奧運(yùn)、人文的奧運(yùn)。其中，"綠色奧運(yùn)"是三個(gè)最重要的理念之一。這充分表現(xiàn)出我們要辦好一屆環(huán)保奧運(yùn)的決心和信心！然而，要實(shí)現(xiàn)這一目標(biāo)，我們要走的路還十分艱辛。

　　我想，作為一名北京的中學(xué)生，我們更有責(zé)任，也更有義務(wù)積極地投入到環(huán)保行動(dòng)中。我們的一舉手，一投足，都會(huì)給首都的市容環(huán)境帶來影響。因此，我們要從我做起，從身邊做起，從小事做起，努力為北京爭光添彩。那么，怎樣才能從小事做起呢？

　　其實(shí)生活中我們能做得也有很多。近年來沙塵暴肆虐北京，大家一定都有體會(huì)。過度放牧和采伐森林使土地沙漠化，雖然我們無力使所有退化土地重新成為綠洲，但至少我們可以在我們的學(xué)校植樹，在我們的小區(qū)植樹，如果人人都能行動(dòng)起來，北京將成為綠色的北京，2008將成為綠色的奧運(yùn)。

　　不知道同學(xué)們有沒有這樣的經(jīng)歷，自己由于懶惰不肯走路上學(xué)，于是天天讓父母用汽車接送�？墒乾F(xiàn)在北京汽車尾氣已經(jīng)嚴(yán)重污染了大氣，難道我們應(yīng)該視而不見嗎？所以，停掉你家的汽車，蹬上自行車，讓我們享受運(yùn)動(dòng)的快樂吧！

　　仔細(xì)想想，我們能為北京2008做的，還遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)不止這些，我們雖然不能像一些科學(xué)家那樣研究不污染的清潔能源，或是污水處理系統(tǒng)，也不能去制止所有工廠停止使用危險(xiǎn)化學(xué)品或向天空排放廢氣，但我們可以節(jié)約每一滴水，保護(hù)每一片綠地，為環(huán)保盡一份微薄的力量。讓2008年的北京，不論是在二環(huán)還是五環(huán)，都能看到湛藍(lán)的天空和茵茵綠草。

　　謝謝大家！
