大题目 Culture Smart or Science Intelligent？
小题目To be or not to be
Half a minute, thirty seconds, one of us die from suicide.Suicide has become the primary death cause among people 15-34 years old in China.One million people commit suicide worldwide each year, and 30 percent of those are from china.Ladies and gentlemen, have you ever thought about why so many people choose suicide to end their life? Have you ever had this idea come up into your mind?
Those people who commit suicide mainly suffer psychological problems which cause them anxiety, depreion, mental disorder or even suicide.Therefore, to be healthy psychologically is much more important than to be healthy physically.How to maintain psychological health, we may resort to culture.When I was a very little boy, I was so innocent to believe that man could have immortal life.When I grew up, I realized man definitely will die one day.It’s just a matter of time.When I became a teenager and felt so desperate sometimes, I even thought about suicide.At that time, I regarded suicide as the quickest way to solve all the problems.But, fortunately, I didn't do it.I didn't do it for a simple traditional saying “ A living dog is better than a dead lion.” Maybe you wouldn’t believe it, why such a simple sentence can save your life? But actually, it does.It changed my attitude towards life, no matter how hard the life is, once you are alive, there is hope.If you die, there is nothing but grave.The eence of our culture lies in its language which makes people how to talk, how to think, how to work.Through language, we maintain the correct values and worldview which is the key point for our mental health.Ladies and gentlemen, science can build us a healthy, strong body, but can it prevent people from suicide? What people need most is the care and love.How to show our care and love, apart from material support, we should provide spiritual support.Mark Twain once said “I can live for two months on a good compliment.” So go to talk to them, use warm, positive words to encourage them to live on instead of irritating them.Maybe more lives could have been saved and will be saved in the future.Our culture inspire us to be happy with what you have and have a peaceful mind towards everything.So my friends, when you are impulsive, think about “Enduring for a while, you shall appease the dispute;Retreating a step, you will get a broadened mind.” when you are desperate, think about “When all else is lost the future still remains.” when you are depreed and even want to attempt suicide, think about “To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world.” At least, you can live for that person.To be or not to be, that is not a question any more.
