【正文】 quo。ll be on a journey between who you think you are and who yo can key is to allow yourself to continue the journey in the ocean of the books.”。and i do learn a lot from books: i know the geometry of euclid, logic of
　　aristotle, fable of aesop known to children around the world. well, no offense to all those great authors of the books, but during my three years at my university, i do realize that personal experience through practice means more to me. as we are in this global information age where both economic growth and individual opportunity are based on ideas, a mitment to providing all human beings the golden opportunity to develop themselves is so vital, not only to the people here, but all around. as we are in this transformational age where munications and merce are global, investments are mobile, technology is almost magical, and the ambition for a better life is now universal, and i think this is why we are here today. we want to earn our personal experience through practicing our oral english, sharing our opinions of tourism and ecology with all the judges and audience here. and i think we are so lucky to be alive at this moment of the history. never before have our nation enjoyed so much prospertity and so much social progress with so little internal never before have our young people had so much great opportunity to practice ourselves and, therefore, have a profound obligation to build a more perfect nation of our ancestoramp。rsquo。s dream. and i think our government had provided us young people with the tools and condition to build the future of our dreams. even if we know some rules, some regulations, or experiences from our books, we still simply cannot graft it onto todayamp。rsquo。s busier, more impersonal,plicated world. instead, our challenges is to arrive at a consensus values and mon vision of what we can do today individually andcollectively to build a strong family and strong munity, and above all, make the world a better place for us to live. thank you very much. contestant18, in your speech, you talked about ecotourism. could you explain to us difference between ordinary tourists and etourists, or ecotourists?
　　answer: thank you for your question. and i think the key issue is the differences between our awareness. fot example, if you want to go to a place to have a trip, enjoy your trip. and i think before you get on board, get on the bus, you can have the awareness that “。iamp。rsquo。m not a polluter, but an environment keeper.”。 weamp。rsquo。re not go to all those scenic spots to estroy all those beautiful scenes but we to appreciate the mother nature giving us so much things. thank you very much.
　　contestant 18,now that information technology is being more and more accessible to people in china, do you think books will bee less and less important?
　　answer: well, i think, maybe, umm, i donamp。rsquo。t think that all those echnologies can replace the importance of books. weamp。rsquo。re in our modern village where so many new industries。it industries, tourism ndustries。crop up every day and this brave new world seem a little bit dehumanizing and inhospitable to a lot of world can no longer be defined as a place on a map or list or people in organizations but i think the true value, the essence of our village remains the is the network of values relationship that support our lives and we can learn those things from our books because books is the very first beginning stage of what we learn. thank you very much.
　　iamp。rsquo。d like to ask you a question about your prepared speech,please. you mention that the un has declated the year XX, i think it was, “。the year of ecotourism.”。 do you think that such gestures really serve a purpose? answer: and i think one of my teachers said to me, when i prepared my prepared speech, and he tells me that if we pay more attention to omething like environmental protection or ecotourism, it is more, it is better for us to bear in mind we should learn something in our hearts, we should have something about the awareness about how to pay more respect to our environment, not to talk about something orally but to bear something in our hearts. follow our hearts, our environment can be you very much.
