游向和平英文演讲稿 　　2004年1月8日 星期四 　　昨晚，纽约吉大校友会会长吴跃东、谷新英来看我，天气寒冷，情谊融融。我们到就近一家意大利餐馆，一边吃面条一边落实活动计划。最后确定，张万鑫联系新闻发布会场所、布置会场。吴跃东联系纽约冬泳协会，落实冬泳交流活动。谷新英联系中国驻纽约总领馆，安排拜见事宜。拉开了美国冬泳活动序幕。 晚上久久未能入睡，除了时差原因，就是心情太激动。早晨3时30分，醒了。爬起来冲了个凉，开始准备英文新闻发布会演讲稿。 　　我从78年上大学开始学英语。我用英语通过了硕士、博士入学、毕业考试，用半半咔咔的英语敲开了通往南极的大门。这次，我又突发奇想，用英语在美国新闻发布会上演讲，挑战自己的英语水平。我先起草了中文讲稿，然后翻译成英文，再反复修改。我手头连英汉词典也没有，只能靠记忆回忆英语单词和句子结构。稿子用了两个小时终于完成了，我暗暗惊喜，王刚义你可真是策划大师，太棒了！我开始一遍又一遍地朗读，调整着声调的语调。我打算先用英文演讲，然后再用中文演讲。 　　On Swimming For Peace Ladies and Gentlemen: 　　Before swimming in North Atlantic in winter and recalling Titanic, I come here, great the United States, from my motherland China for pushing on peace.
