◆ 瘋狂實戰(zhàn)
Ladies and Gentlemen:
女士們，先生們：
[1] Good morning! It’s my great honor to be elected as the chairman of the Green Earth Society. Words can not express how much I appreciate this honor. Thank you all for your support and for your confidence in me. As I take this position, I’ll do my best, together with all our volunteer members of this organization, to promote environmental protection locally and globally, and to make more and more people become eco-conscious.
[1] 早上好！獲選綠色地球協(xié)會的主席，我感到非常榮幸。言語表達(dá)不了我對此榮譽的萬分感激。非常感謝大家的支持和信任。在我就職之后，我會盡自己的最大努力，與本組織的所有志愿者會員一起，促進(jìn)地區(qū)和全球范圍內(nèi)的環(huán)境保護(hù)，并使越來越多的人樹立環(huán)保意識。
[2] “Why should I be eco-conscious?” you ask. There is a very simple reason: We live on one earth, and this is the only place we can live right now. We can't live in space, we don't have the food growing capacity out there yet for lots of people to survive. If we treat the earth like the city dump it becomes dirty and unlivable. If we treat it well by being eco-conscious, the earth stays a clean place, perfect for living, for ourselves and for our children.
[2] 你們可能會問，“我們?yōu)槭裁匆协h(huán)保意識？”原因很簡單：我們生活地球上，而且這是目前我們唯一可以居住的地方。我們無法去太空生活，我們無法在那里生產(chǎn)足夠的食品供很多人生存。如果我們把地球當(dāng)作城市垃圾堆一樣對待，地球會變得骯臟不堪，無法生存。如果我們個個都有環(huán)保意識，好好地對待地球，那么地球會保持干凈，非常適合生活，不僅適合我們，也適合我們的子孫。
[3] We are now living in a highly industrialized world. The expanding industries are providing us with more and more convenience and comfort. But I want to remind you that, owing to overdeveloping of natural resources, our earth is facing a disaster. Our air is being poisoned everyday by car fumes, our oceans polluted with toxic wastes, and our beautiful rainforests are being destroyed.
[3] 我們生活在一個高度工業(yè)化的世界。不斷膨脹的工業(yè)給我們提供了很多方便和舒適。但我想提醒大家，由于自然資源的過度開發(fā)，我們的地球正面臨一場災(zāi)難。我們的空氣每天都受到汽車燃?xì)獾亩净?，我們的海洋遭到有毒廢物的污染，而我們美麗的熱帶雨林也遭到破壞。
[4] We all moan and groan about the loss of the quality of life through the destruction of our ecology, and yet each one of us, in our own little comfortable ways, contributes daily to that destruction. It's time now to awaken in each one of us the respect and attention our beloved mother deserves.
[4] 我們都抱怨由于生態(tài)破壞造成的生活質(zhì)量下降，然而，我們每個人，由于貪圖自己的一點點舒適，每天都在加劇這種破壞?，F(xiàn)在是我們每個人都要喚醒心中對地球的尊敬與關(guān)注的時候了，這是我們深愛的母親所應(yīng)受的。
[5] So, I ask all of you present to join hands in finding ways to make the earth a better place to live. Let’s work hard to improve our society. Ask not what our society can do for you, ask what you can do for our society.
[5] 因此，我要求在座各位攜起手來，想盡辦法使我們的地球變成一個更適合生活的地方。讓我們一起努力來改善我們這個社會。不要問社會能為你做什么，而要問你能為社會做什么。
[6] I sincerely hope that, with our joint effort, we will start our days differently –– we wake up in the morning with the sun shining, trees bursting with strength, and flowers smiling at us. And when I say this, I know I speak for every human resident on this planet.
[6] 我衷心希望，通過我們的共同努力，我們的生活將會大變樣——早上起來，陽光明媚，樹木蔥蔥，生機(jī)勃勃，花兒朝我們微笑。我知道，我這么說是代表這個地球上每一個人的心聲。
[7] Thank you for your support and effort. Your contribution means a great deal not only to this organization, but also to the whole world.
[7] 感謝你們的支持與努力。你們的貢獻(xiàn)意義重大，不僅是對于這個協(xié)會，而且對于整個世界。
[8] Finally, I wish you the best luck in everything you do!
[8] 最后，我衷心祝愿各位萬事如意！
