英语演讲稿:缘 2009 grievesoulLadies and gentlemen, People remain puzzled in spite of their great effort to understand the endless questions, so they invented the all-embracing word---“predestination”. In order to be more precise, different combinations were derived from it: love predestination, sinful predestination, evil predestination, and kind predestination etc., hence we have the sayings like: “Predestination will definitely bring you together despite the great distance while without predestination, you’ll never know each other even though you are standing fact to face” “A distant couple is tied up with the thread of predestination” and even the phrases and expressions like “the god of marriage”, “predestination without luck”, “luck without predestination”, “Coming across each other is a kind of predestination”, “Enemies are bound to meet on a narrow road”, “They shall not marry each other unless they are predestined lovers”. If people still can not find answers, they turn to “reincarnation” for help. Lin Daiyu is always in tears just for repaying for the water Jia Baoyu had given her when she was a plant in her previous life in A Dream of the Red Mansions.In fact, the so-called “predestination” is often a kind of coincidence or chance encounter, even a kind of accident. If you don’t meet this person, you’ll surely meet some one else. But people insist on adding some colors of emotions or superstition, thus generating various religious factions, the main theories of which are no more than that of “reincarnation”, “heaven and hell” and “the ever-lasting soul” etc.But does anyone know anything about his previous life or his after life? What could he do even if he knew them? If he can’t grasp the present life, what’s the benefit of commenting on the visionary after life? Giving up today is the same as giving up tomorrow, for they are closely connected. How absurd it is to work like the horse or cattle in the present life in order to be above others in the next life.Have you ever seen emperor Qinshihuang reincarnate? Have you ever heard of Emperor Wudi of the Han Dynasty going into another life? Where is now Monk Xuanzang of the Tang Dynasty (What we know is the Big Wild Goose Pagoda)? Where is the Monkey King (The Flower and Fruit Mountain does exist, though)? And where can we find those great emperors such as Yao, Shun Yu and the influential philosophers like Confucius, Laozi and Zhuangzi?How many heavens do we find? Are they also divided into the oriental and the occidental world? Is God a Chinese or westerner? Which is the greatest religion among Buddhism, Daoism, Christianity, Catholicity and Islamism? All religions advocate doing good deeds and not killing, but why do they keep contending against each other, even fighting and killing among themselves? Is the paradise the same one in all religions? There’s only one sun in the sky, and there should be only one emperor in a country, but do all religions believe in the same God, or do they have different gods of their own? If all of us expected God’s help, wouldn’t God be too busy and too tired?Does God respect science? If not, why does he allow computers and telecommunications to run rampant? If it is God who created human beings, then doesn’t He feel out of control of what the human being are doing now (the nuclear weapons and bio-chemical weapons, etc.)?We human beings have an origin, and is it the same with God? Does God get married? Is God hereditary, or is it the same ever-lasting one? We have all those questions but who can answer them?.Predestination needs us to strive for; friendship needs us to maintain; good will needs us to treasure and future needs us to create. There is no Savior, nor Goddess of Mercy who once saved people in the past but cannot do anything to help the people at the present. The world is developing too fast.People have to work together and associate with each other. Talking about predestination, it’s just a kind of explanation about what has happened, and I’m afraid nobody can predict it before hand. From ancient times till the 1980’s, once getting married, the couple had to stick to each other for their whole life. Can we say it is because of their life-long predestination? It is just because of the marriage system. In the western countries, life-long marriage is rare. Can we say it is because their predestination makes it so? It is actually the result of human nature. The color of love could be attached to predestination, but not the color of superstition. Predestination is a lovely word which we should treasure and respect. In the present world, we should always follow the win-win or multi-win policy, instead of being single-handed. In order to achieve success, we must gain mass support instead of indulging in self-admiration. We might as well call the communication, the cooperation, the common concerns and the common aspirations of human beings “predestination”. 缘人世间有许多东西即没有答案，也解释不清。例如几十亿的人类，为什么就你们俩结为夫妻？为什么天天在一起没感情，素不相识的会一见钟情？为什么一家人会天天吵架，又吵而不散？为什么看去很般配的又不能结为连理？为什么一个为另一个付出的太多？为什么多情总被无情弃？……百思不得其解，于是人们创造了“缘”这个包罗万象、包容万物的词汇。为了左右逢缘，人们又派生了“情缘”、“孽缘”、“善缘”、“恶缘”等几大支脉。诸如：“有缘千里来相会，无缘对面不相识”，“千里姻缘一线牵”，甚至还创造了“月下佬”、“有缘无份”、“有份无缘”、“相逢即是缘”，“冤家路窄”，“不是冤家不聚头”等。再解释不通，那就求助于“前生后世”了。连林黛玉流泪都是为了还前世欠贾宝玉的浇灌之情。其实所谓“缘份”，经常是一种巧合、偶遇，甚至误打误撞。你不遇到这个人，你也会遇到别的人。但人们执意将其加上感情色彩，甚至迷信色彩。由此竟引出了无数的宗教门派。其主要理论无非是“前生后世”之说，“天堂地狱”之说，和“精神不灭”之说。可是前生谁知道？知道又怎样？后世谁予知？知道又怎样？今天在眼前的尚不能把握，还谈什么虚无飘渺的后世？放弃今天，其实无异于放弃明天，因为二者是连续的。为了来世高人一等，宁愿今世当牛做马，是很荒唐的。谁见过秦始皇转世？谁听说过汉武帝托生？唐僧今在哪里（空余大雁塔）？孙悟空又在何方（花果山确有其名）？三皇五帝至于今，包括孔子、老子、庄子等诸子，我们还能在哪里找到他们的身影？天堂有几个？是否也分东西方？上帝是中国人、还是外国人？佛教、道教、基督教、天主教、伊斯兰教……哪个教更正确？哪个教更伟大？各教都主张行善、不杀生，为什么彼此、甚至内部仍争斗不休、甚至打打杀杀？西方极乐世界是各教共享吗？天无二日，国无二主，上帝是大家一个，还是各教不一？都希望上帝保佑，上帝是否太忙，太累？上帝是否崇尚科学？如不，怎么会允许电脑、电讯泛滥？如果是上帝造人，现在人们的所作所为（核武器、化学武器等）是否让上帝感到失控？人有起源，上帝是否也有起源？上帝有无婚姻？是世袭，还是千古一帝？ 许多问题也只能是问问，谁能作答？缘份也要争取，友情也要维护。恩赐也要珍惜，未来全靠创造。没有救世主。观世音能救古代人，帮不了现代人。世界发展太快了。人们总要共事，总要交往。说缘，也只是事后的解释，事前谁能予料？中国古代，乃至八十年代前，基本上一婚到底，能说就都是一世的缘？不过是中国的婚姻制度使然。而西方很少一婚到底的，你能说就都是缘本肤浅？其实是生活逻辑的自然体现。缘份可以加进感情色彩，但不必添加迷信份额。“缘份”这个词是蛮可爱的，要珍惜和维护。当代世界，任何事情都应该是双赢或多赢，而不应是唯我独享。事业要成功，就一定要搞浩浩荡荡，不能搞孤家寡人。我们不如就把人们这种沟通、这种共识、这种合作、这种情感叫作“缘”。

环境（Environment） Like all other living beings, humans have clearly changed their environment, but they have done so generally on a grander scale than have other species. Some of these changes-such as the destruction of the world's tropical rain forests to create grazing land for cattle or the drying up of almost three-quarters of the Aral Sea, once the world's fourth-largest freshwater lake, for irrigation purposes-have led to altered climate patterns, which in turn have changed the distribution of species of animals and plants. Scientists are working to understand the long-term consequences that human actions have on ecosystems, while environmentalists-professionals in various fields, as well as concerned citizens in the United States and other countries-are struggling to lessen the impact of human activity on the natural world. Population Growth（人口增长） Human population growth may be seen to be at the root of virtually all of the world's environmental problems. Increasingly large numbers of people are being added to the world every year. As the number of people increases, more pollution is generated, more habitats are destroyed, and more natural resources are used up. Even if new technological advances were able to cut in half the environmental impact that each person had, as soon as the world's population size doubled, the earth would be no better off than before. The Population Division of the United Nations predicts that the 5.63 billion humans alive in 1994 will increase to 6.23 billion in the year 2000, 8.47 billion in 2025, and 10.02 billion in 2050. The UN's estimate assumes that population will peak and stabilize at 11.6 billion in 2200. Although it is true that rates of population increase are now much slower in the developed world than in the developing world, it would be a mistake to assume that the population growth problem is primarily a problem of developing countries. In fact, because larger amounts of resources per person are used in the developed nations, each citizen from the developed world has a much greater environmental impact than does a citizen from a developing country. Evidence now exists suggesting that the most important factors necessary to lower population growth rates in the developing world are democracy and social justice. Studies show that population growth rates have fallen in areas where several social conditions have been met. In these areas, literacy rates have increased, and women are given economic status equal to that of men and thus are able to hold jobs and own property; also, birth control information is more widely available, and women are free to make their own reproductive decisions. Global Warming（全球变暖） Like the glass panes in a greenhouse, certain gases in the earth's atmosphere permit the sun's radiation to heat the earth but retard the escape into space of the infrared energy radiated back out by the earth. This process is referred to as the greenhouse effect. These gases, primarily carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and water vapor, insulate the earth's surface, helping to maintain warm temperatures. If the concentration of these gases were higher, more heat would be trapped within the atmosphere, and worldwide temperatures would rise. Within the last century, the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has increased dramatically, largely because of the practice of burning fossil fuels-coal and petroleum and its derivatives. Atmospheric scientists have now concluded that at least half of that increase can be attributed to human activity, and they have predicted that unless dramatic action is taken, temperature will continue to rise by between 1° and 3.5° C over the next century. The consequences of such a modest increase in temperature may well be devastating. Sea levels will rise, completely inundating a number of low-lying island nations and flooding many coastal cities such as New York and Miami. Many plant and animal species will probably be driven into extinction, agricultural regions will be disrupted, and the frequency of severe hurricanes and droughts is likely to increase. Depletion of the ozone layer（臭氧层变薄） The ozone layer, a thin band in the stratosphere （a layer in the upper atmosphere）, serves to shield the earth from the sun's harmful ultraviolet rays. In the 1970s, scientists discovered that the layer was being attacked by chlorofluorocarbons （CFCs）, chemicals used in refrigeration, air-conditioning systems, cleaning solvents, and aerosol sprays. The consequences of the depletion of the ozone layer are dramatic. Increased ultraviolet radiation will lead to a growing number of skin cancers and cataracts and also reduce the ability of people's immune systems to respond to infection. Additionally, the growth rates of the world's oceanic plankton, the base of most marine food chains, will be negatively affected, perhaps leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide and thus to global warming. Predicting the rate of ozone depletion is difficult. Optimists claim that if international agreements for the phasing out of ozone-depleting chemicals agreed to in Montréal in 1987 are followed, ozone loss will peak in the year 2000. With many of the world's fastest growing countries in the process of industrializing and modernizing, there is reason to believe that destruction will continue to increase well beyond that year. Air pollution（空气污染） A significant portion of industry and transportation is based on the burning of fossil fuels, such as gasoline. As these fuels are burned, chemicals and particulate matter are released into the atmosphere. These chemicals interact with one another and with ultraviolet radiation in sunlight in various dangerous ways. Smog, usually found in urban areas with large numbers of automobiles, can cause serious health problems. Acid rain is a serious global problem because few species are capable of surviving in the face of such acidic conditions. Acid rain has made numerous lakes so acidic that they no longer support fish populations. Acid rain is also thought to be responsible for the decline of many forest ecosystems worldwide. Water pollution（水污染） Estimates suggest that nearly 1.5 billion people lack safe drinking water and that at least 5 million deaths per year can be attributed to waterborne diseases. Water pollution may come from point or nonpoint sources. Point sources discharge pollutants at specific locations-from, for example, factories, sewage treatment plants, or oil tankers. The technology exists for point sources of pollution to be monitored and regulated, although political factors may complicate matters. Nonpoint sources-runoff water containing pesticides and fertilizers from acres of agricultural land, for example-are much more difficult to control. Pollution arising from nonpoint sources accounts for a majority of the contaminants in streams and lakes. With almost 80 percent of the planet covered by oceans, people have long acted as if those bodies of water could serve as a limitless dumping ground for wastes. Raw sewage, garbage, and oil spills have begun to overwhelm the diluting capabilities of the oceans, and most coastal waters are now polluted. Beaches around the world are closed regularly, often because of high amounts of bacteria from sewage disposal, and marine wildlife is beginning to suffer. Groundwater pollution（地下水污染） Water that seeps through porous rocks and is stored beneath the ground is called groundwater. Although groundwater is a renewable resource, reserves are replenished relatively slowly. When groundwater is depleted in coastal regions, oceanic salt water commonly intrudes into freshwater supplies. Saltwater intrusion is threatening the drinking water of many areas along the Gulf and Atlantic coasts. The EPA has estimated that, on average, 25 percent of usable groundwater is contaminated, although in some areas as much as 75 percent is contaminated. Contamination arises from leaking underground storage tanks, poorly designed industrial waste ponds, and seepage from the deep-well injection of hazardous wastes into underground geologic formations. Because groundwater is recharged and flows so slowly, once polluted it will remain contaminated for extended periods. Habitat Destruction and Species Extinction（居住环境破坏与物种灭绝） It is difficult to estimate the rate at which humans are driving species extinct because scientists believe that only a small percentage of the earth's species have been described. What is clear is that species are dying out at an unprecedented rate; minimum estimates are at least 4000 species per year, although some scientists believe the number may be as high as 50,000 per year. The leading cause of extinction is habitat destruction, particularly of the world's richest ecosystems-tropical rain forests and coral reefs. At the current rate at which the world's rain forests are being cut down, they may completely disappear by the year 2030. If growing population size puts even more pressure on these habitats, they might well be destroyed sooner. This loss is critical from several perspectives. The economic value of species lost and of natural products and drugs that never will be discovered or produced is incalculable. Similarly, it is impossible to place either a moral or an aesthetic value on our growing list of extinct species. As habitats are destroyed and species lost, the world is increasingly losing threads from the interconnected fabric of life. Chemical Risks（化学成分污染） Pesticide residues on crops and mercury in fish are examples of toxic substances that may be encountered in daily life. Many industrially produced chemicals may cause cancer, birth defects, genetic mutations, or death. Although a growing list of chemicals has been found to pose serious health risks to humans, the vast majority of substances have never been fully tested. Environmental Racism（环境歧视） Studies have shown that not all individuals are equally exposed to pollution. Three of the five largest commercial hazardous waste landfills in America are in predominantly black or Hispanic neighborhoods, and three out of every five black and Hispanic Americans live in the vicinity of an uncontrolled toxic waste site. The fact that the wealth of a community is not nearly as good a predictor of hazardous-waste locations as is the ethnic background of the residents reinforces the conclusion that racism is involved in the selection of sites for hazardous-waste disposal. Environmental racism takes international forms as well. Dangerous chemicals banned in the United States often continue to be produced and shipped to developing countries. Additionally, the developed world has shipped large amounts of toxic waste to developing countries for less-than-safe disposal. Energy Production（能源问题） The world cannot continue to rely on the burning of fossil fuels for much of its industrial production and transportation. Fossil fuels are in limited supply; in addition, when burned they contribute to global warming, air pollution, and acid rain. Nuclear energy as an alternative is opposed by many because of the massive devastation an accident can cause. The accident at the Chernobyl' nuclear power plant in 1986 scattered radioactive contamination over a large part of Europe. Approximately 135,000 people were evacuated, and human health has been dramatically affected. The World Health Organization released a report in late 1995 attributing the "explosive increase" in childhood thyroid cancer in Belarus, Ukraine, and Russia directly to the accident. One reasonable solution is to combine conservation strategies with the increased use of solar energy. The price of solar energy relative to traditional fuels has been dropping steadily, and if environmental concerns were factored into the cost, solar power would already be significantly cheaper. Although it is desirable to have a wider range of energy options, other alternative sources of power （such as wind, geothermal, or hydroelectric） are not likely to provide large-scale solutions in the forseeable future. Conclusion Global environmental collapse is not inevitable. But the developed world must work with the developing world to ensure that new industrialized economies do not add to the world's environmental problems. Politicians must think of sustainable development rather than economic expansion
