The Dream Came True I wanna welcome everybody here in this cheer team. Thank you for coming here this morning to stand on my side cheering me on. It’s my dream to have the opportunity to challenge all the foreign athletes to the championship at this great occasion: 2008 Olympic Games. Now, the dream came true. As an athlete of China, I’m here to win the gold medal of orienteering for our motherland. I’m so proud of being one of the best players in the world. But could you believe I had been a lazy girl when I was in Junior High. I’m not kidding! At that time, running was my last favorite. I really don’t know how to describe the first time I was on the track. It was horrible. When I started to run, I was simply out of breath. And while I touched the finishing line, I really didn’t know if I was still alive. It’s so funny, huh? But it’s true, I did. Well, something happened and changed the situation. We won the right of holding the Olympic Games in 2008. After that, sports became a kind of game in campus. And there are many sports clubs in school. One day someone asked me:“are you gonna try one of those?”First I felt so wired. “Try to get into sports clubs? Are you kidding?” I said. And she goes: “Why not?? It’s not hard at all, and so fascinating!” So I did tried one and I was so lucky to become one of those who did orienteering. That is a fantastic sport! You need to run and find where to go just by using a map and a compass. It’s wasn’t popular in China at first. But when we heard it might become a new event in 2008, we did practiced hard, and aimed to win the first Champion of orienteering in the world. When we practiced, there were a lot of troubles. You know, sometimes you need to go with your feet, but sometimes you need to go with your heart. In some situations, we faced the difficulties and problems. And we need to solve that through teamwork and strong willpower. So we can run faster, go higher and be stronger. That is what we say—Olympic spirit. Now the dream came true. I’m standing here with all my body and my heart put in sports. So do the people from all over the world to HERE at the Olympic Games. It’s the Olympic Games that make us together. We are here for a big day of sport; we are here for a dream of sports. We are here for a spirit of sport that encourages us to face the difficulties of today and tomorrow.
中学生英语演讲比赛演讲稿
一、活动过程与效果
比赛共由来自大一的5位选手以及大二英语系的四位学姐评委组成。比赛中选手们依次进行了自己的演讲。
比赛共分为两轮，第一轮分为两个小版块，包括自我介绍和自己准备的小短文朗读，这一轮比赛满分为5分，每一位选手-演讲结束后都会有评委进行打分（评分制度：去掉最高分和最低分取中间的平均值），所有选手都进行过一轮后会有五分钟的休息时间，然后进行第二轮比赛，第二轮比赛满分为10分，选手要进行主题演讲(我们已经提前把演讲题目告知给给参赛选手)，然后由评为进行打分。所有的打分结束后统计出前三名，最终由数字媒体专业的谢正亚，王燕，以及影动的李冯同学分别获得前三名的佳绩。
本次的演讲大体上来说不是很成功，虽然大家也为比赛准备了，但是不难看出来由于时间原因还是没有准备的很充足。
二、活动中出现的问题
1）活动通知以及举办时间比较紧，整个演讲比赛显得准备不够充分。
2）部分同学不够重视这次比赛，甚至连比赛的制度都不知道，制度在比赛之前已经给各位选手看过。
3）比赛当天院里有职业规划大赛，在时间上我们处于劣势，很多同学也是因为这个原因没有前来观看我们的比赛，导致比赛很冷清。
三、活动经验总结
这次活动我们大家还是有很大收获的，英语就在我们的日常生活中，用第二种语言进行交流我们会发现更多的乐趣，也丰富的大家的课余时间。另外，我们的活动应该做到分工明确且考虑到各种问题以及小细节等，保证每一个小点都不会出错，并且要有良好的心理素质面对突发事件，比如有选手没来参赛，迟到等等。最重要的一点，不要和其他活动的时间有冲突，起码要保证自己的活动有一定的观众。

“诚信、感恩” 演讲比赛总结
Someone said "we are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book, whose pages are infinite". I don't know who wrote these words, but I've always liked them as a reminder that the future can be anything we want it to be. We are all in the position of the farmers. If we plant a good seed ,we reap a good harvest. If we plant nothing at all, we harvest nothing at all.
We are young. "How to spend the youth?" It is a meaningful question. To answer it, first I have to ask "what do you understand by the word youth?" Youth is not a time of life, it's a state of mind. It's not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips or supple knees. It's the matter of the will. It's the freshness of the deep spring of life.
A poet said "To see a world in a grain of sand, and a heaven in a wild flower, hold infinity in the palm of your hand, and eternity in an hour. "Several days ago, I had a chance to listen to a lecture. I learnt a lot there. I'd like to share it with all of you. Let's show our right palms. We can see three lines that show how our love.career and life is. I have a short line of life. What about yours? I wondered whether we could see our future in this way. Well, let's make a fist. Where is our future? Where is our love, career, and life? Tell me.Yeah, it is in our hands. It is held in ourselves.
We all want the future to be better than the past. But the future can go better itself. Don't cry because it is over, smile because it happened. From the past, we've learnt that the life is tough, but we are tougher. We've learnt that we can't choose how we feel, but we can choose what about it. Failure doesn't mean you don't have it, it does mean you should do it in a different way. Failure doesn't mean you should give up, it does mean you must try harder.
As what I said at the beginning, "we are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book, whose pages are infinite"。 The past has gone. Nothing we do will change it. But the future is in front of us. Believe that what we give to the world, the world will give to us. And from today on, let's be the owners of ourselves, and speak out "We are the world, we are the future."
译文：
一些人说“我们正在读一本无穷的书中的第一章的第一节。”我不知道谁写了这些话，但是我一直很喜欢它，因为它提醒了我，我们能够创造我们想要的未来。
我们都是农夫。如果我们播下好的种子，我们将会丰收。如果我们的种子很差，有很多草籽，收割的将是无用的庄稼。如果我们什么也不播种，什么收获也没有。
我们是年轻的。“怎样度过青春？”这是个有意义的问题。为了去回答它，我首先要问“从‘青春’这个词中你能理解到什么？” 青春不是人生的一个时期，而是精神的一种状态。青春不是桃面、丹唇、柔膝，而是深沉的意志，。青春是生命的深泉在涌流。
一位诗人说“从一粒沙看世界，从一朵花看天堂，把无限放在你的手掌，永恒在一刹那里收藏”。几天前，我有了一个听讲座的机会，从中我学到了很多东西。现在，我想把这些与大家共享。让我们伸出右手，我们可以看到手掌中的展示我们的爱，事业和生活的三条线。我在生活方面这条线很短，那你们的呢？我想知道我们是否可以用这种办法去看我们的未来。好的，让我们一起握拳。我们的未来在哪儿？我们的爱、事业和生活在哪儿？告诉我！是的，它们就在我们的手中。它们被我们自己掌握着。

专家点评:引用文学大师的诗句作为开场白，与结束语首尾呼应，颇有感染力。东西方文化的融合表现得十分鲜明
，意味深长，是篇优秀的演讲。
good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. the title of my speech today is "crossing the sea" . an english poet by the name of rudyard kipling once wrote in this poem "we and they" :
all the people like us are we
and everyone else is they
we live over the sea
while they live over the way
we eat pork and beef with cow horn-handled knives
they who gobble their rice off a leaf
are horrified out of their lives.
when these lines first caught my eyes, i was shocked--how could two people remain so isolated and ignorant of each other in the past? today's society, of course, is an entirely different picture. those people who used to eat with gobble their rice might be as well have taken to fish and chips.
indeed, just take china as example; our modern life has been influenced by western style of living in so many ways that it's no longer surprising to see teenagers going crazy about rock-and-roll, whole families dining out at mcdonald's and even rather elderly people dressed in apple jeans.
however, these are only some expressions of the cultural changes taking place in our society today. what is really going on is a subtle but significant restructuring of the nation's mentality. just look around.
how many college graduates are ready to compete aggressively for every job opportunity, whereas not long ago they were asked just to sit idle and wait for whatever was to be assigned to them by the government?
how many young people are now eager to seek for an independent life whereas only two decades ago they would rely totally on their parents to arrange for their future? ask anyone who participates in today's speech contest. who has not come with a will to fight and who has not come determined to achieve self-fulfillment in winning the game? and i'm quite certain that if confucius had lived to see today's china, he would have been horrified to see young lovers kissing each other in public places in an unreserved expression of their passion.
it is therefore evident that we as descendants of an ancient eastern civilization are already living under strong influence of the western culture. but it is not only in china that we find the incorporation of the two cultures.
take the united states as an example: during the 1980s, in face of the overwhelming competition from japan, many american companies such as the ford began to adopt a teamwork management from their rivals, the essence of which, lay at the very core of eastern culture.
take the chinese acupuncture as another example: this traditional treatment of diseases is finally finding its way to the west and hence the underlying notion that illness is resulted from the imbalance between yin and yang within the body--an idea which would strike any westerner as incredible in the past!
ladies and gentlemen, we live in a great epoch when the global integration of economy and the information revolution have brought cultures of the world closer than ever before. we live in a particular era when countries, east and west, find themselves in need of readjusting their traditional values. we live, at the same time, at a critical juncture of our evolution because such problems as ethnic conflicts and regional unrest are increasingly posing a threat to the peace and happiness of the whole human race.to cope with such an era and to embrace an even brighter future, we need to learn to live more harmoniously in a world community which is becoming smaller and smaller. my dear fellow students, our command of the english language render sit possible for us to gain an insight into western culture while retaining our own cultural identity.
therefore, it is our sacred responsibility to promote the cultural exchanges and hence the mutual understanding between china and the rest of the world.
it is my happiest dream that new generation of chinese will not only grow up drinking coca cola and watching hollywood, but also be blessed with the far-reaching benefits of multiple cultures; benefits that our forefathers had never, ever dreamed of.
to end my speech, i would like to quote rudyard kipling again:
all the people like us are we
and everyone else is they
but once you cross over the sea
you will end by looking on we
as only a sort of they.
thank you.
译文:穿越海洋
女士们、先生们，晚上好。今天，我演讲的题目是:《穿越海洋》。
英国诗人罗得雅德·吉卜林曾写过一首诗，名叫《我们与他们》，其中写道:
像我们的人是我们
其余的人是他们
我们生活在海这边
他们生活在路那边
我们用牛角柄的刀叉吃猪牛肉
吞吃粽叶包饭的他们
吓得要死。
第一次读到这首诗，我很震惊——过去两个民族何以如此疏离、彼此陌生?当然今日的社会呈现出完全不同的情景
:那些过去吃米饭的人们也开始喜欢吃鱼和薯条。
的确如此，就拿中国来说，西方的生活方式已经广泛地影响了我们的现代生活，以致对于年轻人对摇滚乐着
迷，全家去吃麦当劳，老年人穿苹果牌牛仔裤，大家都已习以为常。
然而，这不过是我们当今社会中所发生的文化变迁的表面现象而已，真正发生的却是我们的民族心理开始了微妙
而又有重大意义的重建，大家只要看看周围就会清楚。
不久以前，大学生还只是束手空坐，等待政府给他们分配工作;如今，又有多少大学生正在做充分准备，为争取任
何工作机会而激烈角逐?
20年前年轻人还完全依靠父母为他们安排未来，今天又有多少年轻人在急切地寻求一种独立的生活?试问今天参加
演讲比赛的诸位，谁不是带着志在一搏的心情来到这里?谁不是铁下心来赢得这场比赛以实现自我?如今年轻人毫无顾
忌地宣泄情感当众亲吻，我确信，倘若孔子在世，他必被吓坏。
很明显，我们这些东方古老文明的后裔们早已生活在西方文化的强烈影响之下，然而出现这种异质文化合流的
现象不止是在中国。
以美国为例，20世纪80年代，面对来自日本的强大竞争压力，许多美国公司如福特公司开始采用对手的集体合作
管理方式，而这种方式正是东方文化核心之精华。
再以中华针灸为例，这种传统的医疗方法以及这种疗法的依据——即人体阴阳失调导致疾病最终得到西方社会的
承认，而在过去，西方人还认为这是无稽之谈。
女士们，先生们，我们恰逢一个伟大的时代:全球经济一体化、信息革命使得世界各种文化联系比以往更加紧密;
我们恰逢一个特殊的年代:无论是东方国家还是西方国家都意识到自身急需调整传统价值。与此同时，我们正生活在发
展的关键时刻:种族冲突，地区动荡正越来越威胁着整个人类的和平与幸福。如何对待这一时代，拥抱更加灿烂的未来
，我们需要学会在越来越小的世界大家庭中更加和睦地生活。
亲爱的同学们，我们掌握英语，得以了解西方文化，与此同时，又不失本民族的文化特征。
因此，促进中国与世界的文化交流与相互理解是我们神圣的责任。
我有一个美好的梦想，我梦想中国的年轻一代不仅仅在喝可口可乐、看好莱坞影片中成长，而且还受益于我们的
父辈所从未梦想过的多元文化所带来的深远影响。
最后，再次以罗得雅德·吉卜林的诗作为我此次演讲的结尾:
像我们的人是我们
其余的人是他们
然而一旦你们穿洋越海
就不会再把我们
To me March 28th was a lucky day. It was on that particular evening that I found myself at central stage, in the spotlight. Winning the 21st Century·Ericsson Cup Seventh National English Speaking Competition is a memory that I shall treasure and one that will surely stay. More important than winning the Cup is the friendship that has been established and developed among the contestants, and the chance to communicate offstage in addition to competing onstage. Also the competition helps boost public speaking in China, a skill hitherto undervalued. For me, though, the competition is a more personal experience. Habitually shy, I had been reluctant to take part in any such activities. Encouraged by my friends, however, I made a last-minute decision to give it a try. In the course of preparation I somehow rediscovered myself, a truer me. I found that, after all, I like communicating with other people; that exchanging views can be so much fun—and so much rewarding, both emotionally and intellectually; that public speaking is most effective when you are least guarded; and that it is essential to success in every walk of life. At a more practical level, I realized knowing what you are going to say and how you are going to say it are equally important. To take the original ideas out of your head and transplant them, so to speak, to that of others, you need to have an organized mind. This ability improves with training. Yet there should not be any loss or addition or distortion in the process. Those ideas that finally find their way into another head need to be recognizably yours. Language is a means to transmit information, not a means to obstruct communication. It should be lucid to be penetrating. In China, certain public speaking skills have been unduly emphasized. Will it really help, we are compelled to ask, to bang at the podium or yell at the top of your lungs, if you have come with a poorly organized speech, a muddled mind, and unwillingness to truly share your views? Above all, the single most important thing I learnt was that as a public speaker, you need to pay attention, first and foremost, to the content of your speech. And second, the structure of your speech: how one idea relates and progresses to another. Only after these come delivery and non-verbal communication: speed control, platform manner, and so on. Pronunciation is important, yet of greater importance is this: Is your language competent enough to express your ideas exactly the way you intend them to be understood? I was informed afterwards that I was chosen to be the winner for my appropriately worded speech, excellent presence and quick-witted response. In so remarking, the judges clearly showed their preference: they come to listen for meaningful ideas, not for loose judgments, nor easy laughters. Some contestants failed to address their questions head on. Some were able to, but did not know where to stop—the dragging on betrayed their lack of confidence. The root cause was that they did not listen attentively to the questions. Or they were thinking of what they had prepared. As I said in my speech, It is vitally important that we young people do more serious thinking ... to take them [issues like globalization] on and give them honest thinking is the first step to be prepared for both opportunities and challenges coming our way. We need to respond honestly. A competition like this draws talented students from all over the country. And of course, I learnt more things than just about public speaking. Since in th final analysis, public speaking is all about effective communication. And this goes true for all communications, whatever their setting. And the following is the final version of my speech: GLOBALIZATION: OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGES FOR CHINAS YOUNGER GENERATION Thirty years ago, American President Richard Nixon made an epoch-making visit to China, a country still isolated at that time. Premier Zhou Enlai said to him, Your handshake came over the vastest ocean in the world—twenty-five years of no communication. Thirty years since, China and America have exchanged many handshakes. The fundamental implication of this example is that the need to communicate across differences in culture and ideology is not only felt by the two countries but by many other nations as well. As we can see today, environmentalists from different countries are making joint efforts to address the issue of global warming, economists are seeking solutions to financial crises that rage in a particular region but nonetheless cripple the world economy, and politicians and diplomats are getting together to discuss the issue of combating terrorism. Peace and prosperity has become a common goal that we are striving for all over the world. Underlying this mighty trend of global communication is the echo of E. M. Forsters words Only connect! With the IT revolution, traditional boundaries of human society fall away. Our culture, politics, society and commerce are being sloshed into one large melting pot of humanity. In this interlinked world, there are no outsiders, for a disturbance in one place is likely to impact other parts of the globe. We have begun to realize that a world divided cannot endure. China is now actively integrating into the world. Our recent entry to the WTO is a good example. For decades, we have taken pride in being self-reliant, but now we realize the importance of participating in and contributing to a broader economic order. From a precarious role in the world arena to our present WTO membership, we have come a long way. But what does the way ahead look like? In some parts of the world people are demonstrating against globalization. Are they justified, then, in criticizing the globalizing world? Instead of narrowing the gap between the rich and the poor, they say, globalization enables the developed nations to swallow the developing nations wealth in debts and interest. Globalization, they argue, should be about a common interest in every other nations economic health. We are reminded by Karl Marx that capital goes beyond national borders and eludes control from any other entity. This has become a reality. Multinational corporations are seeking the lowest cost, the largest market, and the most favourable policy. They are often powerful lobbyists in government decision-making, ruthless expansionists in the global market and a devastating presence to local businesses. For China, still more challenges exist. How are we going to ensure a smooth transition from the planned economy to a market-based one? How to construct a legal system that is sound enough and broad enough to respond to the needs of a dynamic society? How to maintain our cultural identity in an increasingly homogeneous world? And how to define greatness in our rise as a peace-loving nation? Globalization entails questions that concern us all. Like many young people my age in China, I want to see my country get prosperous and enjoy respect in t e international community. But it seems to me that mere patriotism is not just enough. It is vitally important that we young people do more serious thinking and broaden our mind to bigger issues. There might never be easy answers to those issues such as globalization, but to take them on and give them honest thinking is the first step to be prepared for both opportunities and challenges coming our way. This is also one of the thoughts that came to me while preparing this speech.

Win Competition of Environment Protection for Beijing
Although the 2008 Olympics are still three years away， another special competition has already started in Beijing. This time， the competitors are not the athletes from all over the world， but the people living in Beijing. The special competition is not held in a stadium， but in every street and every corner of Beijing. I suppose some of you may have already guessed what the special competition is. Yes， it is the competition of protecting our environment and creating a green Beijing for the 2008 Olympic Games.
Someone may ask who is our rival in this competition? The modern Los Angeles， the charming Sydney， or the historic Athens? No， none of them. The real rival is ourselves. It is our bad habits of neglecting to protect environment in our daily life.
Several years ago， I was very lucky to have an opportunity to live in the United States for about two years. I not only enjoyed the beautiful environment there， but also appreciated the American people's active way of protecting their environment. Now， whenever the environment protection is mentioned， a beautiful view of California will arise in my mind: white clouds flying acrothe blue sky， green grassplot sprinkled with colorful flowers and small animals playing happily among the trees.
I remember that at the beginning of my coming to America， I often went to my father's working place， the United States Geological Survey， to have fun. Each time I found a lot of people riding bicycles to their offices. Among the cyclists， an old man with white hair attracted my attention. Curiously， I asked my father，" Why does the old man ride his bike to work every day? Doesn't he have enough money to buy a car?" Father laughed， "No， not because of money. Actually， he is one of the greatest scientists in the world. He can afford to buy a motorcade if he likes. He is just an environmentalist and usually doesn't drive unlegoing shopping， or in bad weather. In America， there are a lot of environmentalists， who actively protect their environment. For example， in Palo Alto city we are living now， there is even a bicycle-to-work day on May 19th every year to encourage people to decrease air pollution caused by cars".
Later， I also learnt another interesting fact of environment protection there. In some states of America， in order to decrease air pollution， save energy and reduce traffic jams， state governments encourage people to take buses to work or to share a car among several people. They even set special "diamond lanes" in some main streets， which are only for the vehicles with 2 or more people.
The positive actions of American people and the effective measures the American government takes in environment protection fully won my respects and deeply affected my consciousnein environment protection.
When I was back in China， people often asked me: " What do you think of America?" I always bolt out:" Wonderful， especially the beautiful environment." Frankly speaking， after several years， the faces of my American teachers and friends have gradually faded away from my mind， but the blue sky， green graand lovely animals in California often arise in my mind， and became my dream of visiting there again.
The 2008 Olympics provide us with the opportunity to publicize and practise environment protection in Beijing. Is it possible for Beijing to Is it possible for Beijing to become as beautiful as California? The answer is "yes"， but the dream needs every Beijing citizen's full support and active moves to accomplish.
From now on， if every student who is driven to school can take bus or ride bicycle to school once a week， if every car owner goes to work in a car pool once a week， we can make a difference. If everyone can actively protect the environment in our daily life， the blue sky， green graand lovely animals in California will appear in Beijing.
Although the 2008 Olympics are still three years away, another special competition has already started in Nanchang. This time, the competitors are not the athletes from all over the world, but the people living in Nanchang. The special competition is not held in a stadium, but in every street and every corner of Nanchang. I suppose some of you may have already guessed what the special competition is. Yes, it is the competition of protecting our environment and creating a green Nanchang for the 2008 Olympic Games.

If everyone can actively protect the environment in our daily life, the blue sky, green grass and lovely animals in California will appear in Nanchang.
Tiny streams can combine into a vast ocean, small trees can together be an immense forest. Nanchang is often described as a beautiful and aged picture. If every Nanchang citizen adds a trait of green on the picture, the whole Nanchang will become an ocean of green. Let us unite together to win the competition of environment protection in Nanchang, and present the world a big gold medal. That is "Green Nanchang, Great Olympics "
The 2008 Olympics provide us with the opportunity to publicize and practise environment protection in Nanchang. Is it possible for Nanchang to Is it possible for Nanchang to become as beautiful as California? The answer is "yes", but the dream needs every Nanchang citizen's full support and active moves to accomplish.
有人可能会问我们在这种竞争对手是谁?现代的洛杉矶,迷人的悉尼,还是历史雅典?不,没有一个人。真正的对手是自己。这是我们的坏习惯忽视保护环境在我们的日常生活中。
虽然2008年奥运会仍然是三年,南昌的另一个特殊的竞争已经开始。这次的对手不是运动员来自世界各地,但是人民生活在南昌。特殊的竞争不是在体育场举行,但是在每条街道和南昌的每个角落。我想你们中的一些人可能已经猜到了什么特殊的竞争。是的,这是保护我们的环境,创造一个绿色的竞争南昌2008年奥运会。
几年前,我很幸运有机会住在美国两年了。我不仅喜欢那里的环境优美,但也感谢美国人民积极的方式保护他们的环境。现在,每当提到环境保护时,加州美丽的景色将会出现在我的脑海里:白云飞过蓝天,绿草地上散布着五颜六色的花和小动物在树林里快乐地玩。
积极行动的美国人民和美国政府采取有效措施在环境保护完全赢得了我的尊重和深深影响我在环境保护意识。
我回到中国的时候,人们经常问我:“你觉得美国吗?在精益生产工具,其中最普遍引用相关文献的�“坦率地说,几年后,我的美国老师和朋友的面孔已经逐渐从我脑海中消失了,但蓝天,绿草和可爱的动物在加州经常出现在我的脑海里,并再次成为来访的有我的梦想。
我记得我初来美国,我经常去我父亲的工作地点,美国地质调查局,玩得开心。每次我发现很多人骑自行车到他们的办公室。骑自行车的人,一个老人白发吸引了我的注意。奇怪的是,我问父亲:“为什么老人每天骑他的自行车去上班吗?他没有足够的钱买一辆小汽车吗?”父亲笑着说:“不,不是因为钱。实际上,他是世界上最伟大的科学家之一。他能买得起一个车队如果他喜欢。他仅仅是一个环保主义者,通常不会开车,除非去购物,或在恶劣的天气。在美国,有很多的环保人士,他们积极地保护环境。例如,在帕洛阿尔托市我们现在生活,甚至有一天骑车上班每年5月19日鼓励人们减少汽车造成空气污染”。
后来,我也学会了保护环境的另一个有趣的事实。在美国一些州,为了减少空气污染,节约能源,减少交通堵塞,政府鼓励人们坐公交车上班或在几个人之间共享一辆车。他们甚至设置特殊的“钻石车道”在一些主要街道,为车辆提供只有2或更多的人。
从现在开始,如果每个学生都是驱动可以乘公共汽车或骑自行车来学校一周一次,如果每个车主在汽车上班池一周一次,我们可以改变。如果每个人都能积极地保护环境在我们的日常生活中,蓝天,绿草和可爱的动物在加利福尼亚将出现在南昌。
小溪流可以结合变成一个巨大的海洋,小树一起可以是一个巨大的森林。南昌通常被描述为一个美丽的和年龄的画面。如果每个南昌市民增加了一个绿色的特点,整个南昌将会是一片绿色的海洋。让我们团结在一起,在南昌赢得竞争的环境保护,和现在世界上大的金牌。这是“绿色南昌,新奥运”
