【正文】 s, of course, very powerful. But when people are sitting so close, they are living so close to one another, it39。s not a large distance, we shouldn39。s just sitting on the other side of my office. I bring up this example because I believe it shows well the advantages and disadvantages the Internet serves as a tool for people municating. Of course, if two people are very distant away from one another, when they are very far away from one another, is a very important powerful tool. The Internet serves as a very good powerful tool. If you need to tell the other person something, you just type in words and write an . And then, within seconds, the is sent to the other side of the earth. That39。t use Internet so much as a municating tool. Take my example that I mentioned earlier, employers, they have to send s back and forth even when they are sitting in the same office, when they are supposed to walk just a few steps away and tell the other person what they would like to tell them. But they, instead, send s. And we have to check the every now and then because every five minutes or every ten minutes we get information to tell us what we are supposed to do. Of course, what this will lead us to is low efficiency when you are working, also not concentrated when you are working. It also leads to a munication breakdown. Cartoon topic issueWhat do you think of cosmetic surgery? Is it a good thing or a bad thing?Hu Minxia 2003 （決賽1分鐘） It’s an interesting topic, isn’t it? Here firstly, I would like to define cosmetic surgery. By cosmetic surgery, we exclude those who are severely injured or burned and have to receive medical treatments. We only refer to those who are physical healthy and just want to look better by deliberately seeking thing. First, to be natural is beautiful,. We should cherish what has been given to us and we should value our uniqueness. Just imagine, if every man in the world looks like David Beckham, and if every woman looks like Princess Diana, what a horrible world it would be! And secondly, I would say, to be healthy is to be beautiful. How properly we can sleep, we can eat, and how much exercises we do, and also what kind of life style we live is more important than surgeries. Thank you. General statementGod never made an ordinary human being. Yu Li 2005 （半決賽3分鐘） Thank you all. In the Old Testament of Holy Bible, Chapter Number 1 the Genesis, we are told that God made Adam in his own image, and endowed with him the omnipotence, the potentiality of that divinity in tem. And from the barbaric and primitive stage to a now prosperous society, and from the abyss of darkness and ignorance to the dis, we see a lot of people with intelligence, and from that kind of darkness to a now the night dodges with lights, God has seen us through all the vicissitudes of life.

As is found out in mountain climber who had weathered the storm and see the beautiful sky with the exposure to the majestic look around him unfettered by that kind of confinements, you mean, you know what kind of fortitude you have. The fourth is poise. Poise is the readiness to accept any change, to, so you will not get perplexed and disturbed by the fast changes in society, the pace we will be catch up with. The fifth is style. Style means you have not only been a manufacturing power house, but you have that dimension of literature, that kind of wealth, of spring of mental wealth. The sixth is individuality. That’s why we are making this speech. So we are different. And that’s what makes me extraordinary, made me extraordinary. The seventh is passion. Right, you got passion again. Because passion in twice as importance as much as anything else. Without passion, I’m standing here I would like, make a speech like automation.
