honorable judges, ladies and gentlemen, good morning.

first of all, let me take this chance to present to you a set of data that i hope won't bore you since the source is china daily.

china's tourism revenue last year reached 500 billion rmb, an increase of 10.5 percent from the year before, and comprised more than 5% of china's gdp. according to experts, this number will grow to 8% in the coming ten years and more than 40 million jobs will be created.

as a student majoring in economics, i can't be more sensitive to the essential meanings behind these numbers. they mean progress, prosperity, employment and stability.

however, as a conscientious chinese and citizen of the world, i can't help but care more about the losses incurred in this transaction, by which i mean the disturbing images of environmental destruction, which leads to ecological crisis. the global environment has changed for the worse during the past few years, and tourism is partly to blame. take china for example, in order to attract tourists, many unknown places are built into resorts. forests are cleared, prairies trampled, rivers and lakes 6)contaminated, wild animals are driven away, plants jeopardized and secluded populations disturbed.

if this seems too remote and abstract, my own traveling experience may speak louder here. last year i took a tour around emei mountain in sichuan province. like most tourists, i was eager to embrace nature and enjoy its beauty. however, as soon as i got on the bus, the stench of gasoline and the noise of the engine tainted my appreciation of the wonderful scenery and the tranquility of the country road. when we finally arrived, what i saw was not a beautiful landscape but crowds of people; what i heard was not the melodious singing of birds, but yelling and bargaining from the gift shops; what i smelled was not the fresh mountain air, but stinking suffocating smoke coming out of small dirty restaurants. moreover, i could not understand why the lovely monkeys living there had to take photos with tourists all day; why the beautiful butterflies and flowers had become lifeless samples in shop windows; why the strongest impressions i had was trash scattered everywhere on the ground.

however, this is not the end of the story. before i left emei, i met a group of kids in an ecotourism program with the slogan: “experiencing, learning and protecting.” when i saw their young hands picking up trash from the ground, when i felt their enjoyment and harmonious relationship with the animals, when i found their purest eyes filled with passion and love for nature, i realized to my great satisfaction that there doesn't have to be a tradeoff between tourism and ecology, because deep within us is an inclination toward natural beauty and a desire to protect it. yes, environmental problems will eventually ease with the advancement of science and technology and improvement of our management system. however, an increase of ecological education and hands-on environmental involvement of our fellow citizens will do even better. to realize this, the best way for us lies in tourism itself because nothing other than nature can teach us how to love and cherish our sweetest home. at the end of my speech, please let me quote bob dylan:

how many roads must a man walk down before you call him a man?

how many times must a man look up before he can see the sky?

how many years can a mountain exist before it's washed to the sea?

the answer, my friend, is not in the wind-the answer is ours! thank you!

【參考譯文】

尊敬的評委，女士們，先生們，早上好。

首先，讓我藉此機會向你提出一套，我希望不會給你因爲源是中國日報的數據。

中國去年的旅遊收入達5000億元，同比增長百分之10.5，包括超過5%的中國國內生產總值。據專家介紹，這一數字將在未來十年內增長到8%，將創造超過4000萬個就業機會。

作爲一名經濟學專業的學生，我不能對這些數字背後的基本含義更加敏感。他們的意思是進步，繁榮，就業和穩定。

然而，作爲一個認真的中國人和世界公民，我不能不關心更多的損失，在這項交易中，我的意思是干擾圖像的環境破壞，從而導致生態危機。在過去的幾年裏，全球環境惡化了，旅遊業也難辭其咎。以中國爲例，爲了吸引遊客，許多未知的地方建成度假村。森林被清除，草原被踐踏，河流和湖泊6)被污染，野生動物被驅趕，植物受到破壞，被隔離的人羣擾亂。

如果這似乎太遙遠和抽象，我自己的'旅行經驗可能會大聲這裏。去年我遊覽了四川峨眉山。和大多數遊客一樣，我渴望擁抱大自然，欣賞大自然的美景。然而，我一上公共汽車，汽油的惡臭和引擎的噪音玷污了我對鄉村美景和寧靜的欣賞。當我們終於來到，我看到的不是一個美麗的景觀，但人羣;我聽到的不是鳥兒的歌聲悠揚，但“談判從禮品店;我聞到的不是山中的新鮮空氣，但臭令人窒息的煙霧出來的骯髒的小餐館。此外，我不明白爲什麼生活在那裏的可愛的猴子不得不整天與遊客拍照，爲什麼美麗的蝴蝶和鮮花已成爲無生氣的樣品在商店櫥窗，爲什麼我最強烈的印象是垃圾散落在地上。

然而，這並不是故事的結局。在我離開峨眉，我的口號是一個生態旅遊項目遇到了一羣孩子：“體驗、學習和保護。“當我看到他們的年輕的手從地上揀起垃圾，當我覺得自己的享受和與動物和諧的關係，當我發現他們的眼神充滿了激情和愛自然，我意識到我很滿意，也不必是一個旅遊和生態之間的權衡，因爲在我們的內心深處是一個傾向於自然美和渴望保護它。是的，隨着科技的進步和管理體制的完善，環境問題最終會緩解。然而，增加生態教育和實際的環境參與我們的同胞會做得更好。要做到這一點，對我們最好的方式在於旅遊本身，因爲沒有什麼比自然可以教我們如何愛和珍惜我們最甜蜜的家。在我的演講結束時，請允許我引用鮑布狄倫：

一個人要走多少路才能叫他男人?

一個人要仰望多少次才能看到天空?

一座山在被沖刷到大海之前能存在多少年?

我的朋友，答案不在風中，答案是我們的!謝謝您!
