  Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. Today I would like to begin with a story.
  下午好,女士们,先生们。今天,我首先想用一个小故事。  
  There was once a physical therapist who traveled all the way from America to Africa to do a census about mountain gorillas. These gorillas are a main attraction to tourists from all over the world; this put them severely under threat of poachingand being put into the zoo. She went there out of curiosity, but what she saw strengthened her determination to devote her whole life to fighting for those beautiful creatures. She witnessed a scene, a scene taking us to a place we never imaged we’ve ever been, where in the very depth of the African rainforest, surrounded by trees, flowers and butterflies, the mother gorillas cuddledtheir babies。 
  从前有一个临床医学家,专程从美国到非洲做关于山岳大猩猩调查。这些大猩猩是主要吸引游客从世界各地,这使他们的威胁下,严重偷猎和被放进了动物园。她去那里出于好奇,但她看到她决心投入加强她的一生为这些美丽的生物战斗。她亲眼目睹的场景,一个场景带我们到一个地方,我们从来没有影像我们以前好多了,凡在非洲热带雨林非常深入,树木环绕,鲜花和蝴蝶,母亲大猩猩拥抱婴儿。
  Yes, that’s a memorable scene in one of my favorite movies, called Gorillas in the Mist, based on a true story of Mrs. Dian Fossey, who spent most of bet lifetime in Rwanda to protect the ecoenvironment there until the very end of her life.
  是的,这是一个在我最喜欢的电影之一难忘的场景,被称为大猩猩在雾中的基础上,迪安弗塞夫人,谁花了卢旺达投注一生中最保护,直到她生命的最后的生态环境有真实的故事。
  To me, the movie not only presents an unforgettable scene but also acts as a timeless reminder that we should not develop the tourist industry at the cost of our ecoenvironment.
  在我看来,电影不仅提出了一个难忘的场景,而且作为一个给我们永恒的提醒,我们不应该在我们发展生态环境成本旅游业的行为。
  Today, we live in a world of prosperity but still threatened by so many new problems. On the one hand, tourism, as one of the most promising industries in the 21st century, provides people with the great opportunity to see everything there is to see and to go any place there is to go. It has become a lifestyle for some people, and has turned out to be the driving force in GDP growth. It has the magic to turn a backward town into a wonderland of prosperity. But on the other hand, many problems can occur---natural scenes aren’t natural anymore. Deforestation to heat lodges is devastating Nepal. Oil spills from tourist boats are polluting Antarctica. Tribal people are forsaking their native music and dress to listen to U2 on Walkman and wear Nike and Reeboks.
  今天,我们生活在一个繁荣的世界,但仍受到这么多的新问题的威胁。一方面,旅游业在21世纪最有前途的产业之一,提供了极好的机会,看看那里的人都看到,是去任何地方有去。它已成为一些人的生活方式,并已被证明是在国内生产总值增长的推动力。它具有魔力,把一个繁荣仙境一个落后小镇。但在另一方面,许多问题都可以发生的自然场景---不自然了。砍伐森林对热小屋是毁灭性的尼泊尔。溢油污染是从南极旅游船。部落的人放弃自己的本土音乐和服饰,听取他们对随身听U2和穿耐克和锐步。
