How should a college student participate in the 2010 Shanghai World Expo?

For reference:

1. The International Industrial Products Exhibition held in London, England in 1851 marked the first World Expo and has a history of more than 150 years. Almost all past World Expos were monopolized by developed Western countries, especially the United States, France and the United Kingdom. Why? Because our Qing government and the Nationalist government were too poor, too backward, too ignorant, and had no place in the world.

Today, our country is strong and we are capable of hosting the Olympic Games and the World Expo.

Have we really become a world power? The answer is no. We still have a long way to go and a lot to do.

What we need to do now is the many inadvertent bad habits in life that have been left over for thousands of years. This bad habit is common among Chinese people and among Shanghainese people. The World Expo will be held in Shanghai. Shanghainese people have the first responsibility and obligation to start with themselves, start with small things, and change the bad habits listed here.

What bad habits do we have?

To list some:

1. Failure to obey traffic rules. The fines for car drivers remain high, including drunk driving, illegal parking, forced overtaking, etc.; violations of traffic rules on motorcycles, mopeds, and bicycles are even more common.

2. Offer cigarettes and drinks. In the subconscious mind of most of us, it seems that offering cigarettes and drinking alcohol is a sign of respecting others, but this is not the case. In many places, there is a custom of not being drunk enough to make enough friends.

3. Littering and littering. It is not uncommon for many people to throw away debris regardless of the occasion, such as gatherings, watching games, performances, shopping, eating snacks, etc.

4. Posters and graffiti. Black advertisements are flying all over the place and are banned repeatedly. There is still a lot of graffiti in the public toilets.

5. Defecating and urinating anywhere. Especially at night in residential areas, this phenomenon often occurs. All kinds of pets are included.

There are many more, so I won’t list them all.

More than 200 countries and regions will participate in the 2010 Shanghai World Expo, and the number of visitors will reach an unprecedented 70 million. The image of Shanghai is the image of China, and the image of Shanghai people is the image of the Chinese people. , we have no reason not to do well. This is also the unshirkable responsibility of every conscientious and caring citizen.

The 2010 Shanghai World Expo is a grand event that explores human urban life. It presents to the world not only 184 days of wonderful exhibitions, but also conveys to people all over the world " "Understanding, communication, gathering, cooperation" is a symphony with innovation and integration as the main theme. It will convey to the world the vision of a better life about green environmental protection and scientific and technological innovation. It will become a wonderful dialogue for human civilization. .

The World Expo has a long history. In 1851, the first World Expo was successfully held at the Crystal Palace in Hyde Park, London, England. The success of the World Expo was the first time in the world that many countries were brought together to exchange different ideas for a peaceful purpose. Cultural and scientific and technological achievements were unprecedented. The European Industrial Revolution and the rapid development of science and technology brought about tremendous changes in human life. The Crystal Palace is filled with colorful flags from all over the world, and a variety of exquisite crafts, art sculptures, and the latest scientific and technological inventions from various countries are dazzling. Chinese products participated in the first World Expo and won awards.

In the past 150 years, the World Expo has become the largest event of human creativity in the world today. Many of the world's latest technologies, concepts, and cultures began at the World Expo. Major inventions such as automobiles, televisions, electric lights, and elevators were all originated from the World Expo. For the first time, visitors can experience the latest scientific and technological achievements and development concepts. Each country will showcase its most advanced development concepts, most successful explorations and practices around the theme.

The theme of the 2010 Shanghai World Expo: Better City, Better Life. This will become the most exciting and unforgettable event in history. We will welcome friendly people from all over the world to witness Yao Minming's height, Liu Xiang's speed, Ding Junhui's precision, and Wang Liqin's arc in Shanghai with them. , the world's height of Jin Mao Tower, the world's speed of maglev, and the enthusiasm of Shanghai people.

However, as a junior high school student in Shanghai, while I am excited and excited, I am also thinking quietly, what can I do for the World Expo? In addition to intense study, I actively participated in Shanghai youth science and technology innovation activities. As a member of the Youth Talent Club of the Shanghai Association for Science and Technology, I actively participated in exploratory research on environmental science and water pollution in Shanghai. My personal thesis won the 24th place in Shanghai. The second prize in the environmental science category of the Intel Innovation Competition and the first prize in the Shanghai Middle School Student Biological Science Essay Competition. During the scientific exploration, I took water samples from eight points along the Taopu River. We conducted experiments on ten aspects including taste, solid mass, sedimentation percentage concentration, pH value, small organism survival test, chloride ion sulfate ion detection, and microscope observation, and took on-site photos. We found many problems from the on-site and experimental data. We are currently There are still weak links in the improvement of water quality pollution. There are also phenomena of random dumping of domestic garbage into the river and direct discharge of sewage. River water pollution caused by untreated rainwater from rainwater pumping stations is discharged directly into the river. There is still a need for technical improvement. The protection of the water environment still needs to be improved. There are many existing problems that need to be solved. The advancement of environmental protection technology and environmental protection publicity are very important. Protecting water resources and protecting the environment is also the responsibility of every middle school student.

The 2010 World Expo is the first time in the history of the World Expo to focus on "cities". It guides people to think quietly. When more than half of the world's population already lives in cities, mankind is facing increasing and increasingly serious urbanization. Derived issues need to be discussed and solved together. Urban residents and urban environment ecological protection, resource conservation and reuse, there are many issues of common concern to mankind that need to be dealt with and solved. As a junior high school student, I have a Beautiful wishes, I hope that Shanghai’s sky will be bluer and its water will be clearer, and it will develop into a green and sustainable ecological city. Let us hold hands with each other and work together for a better tomorrow.

3. The World Expo is not only an exchange of cultures between countries, but also an exchange of hearts and minds of people of all countries. People will always remember the harmonious coexistence of our people during the World Expo, no, in the days to come. They will also remember the unity and friendship of our Chinese sons and daughters, and the unremitting relaxation of our teenagers. To this end, as the future successors of our motherland, what should we do for the 2010 World Expo? Did you throw the empty can everywhere after drinking the drink? Is it trampling on the lawn and climbing and breaking flowers and trees? Or are you addicted to online games and staying up all night? No, since the World Expo is held in our country, then we should fulfill our obligations as little masters, be competent little envoys of etiquette and civilized envoys, and do our best for the World Expo, and for the country and the people. We build a bridge of communication with the people and add our own brilliance to the colorful picture of "Better City, Better Life".

In 2010, when the World Expo opened, I might have been studying the Four Books and Five Classics to prepare for the high school entrance examination, but I would still silently bless the World Expo and wait until the summer vacation to become a volunteer. , dedicate my strength to the World Expo...

4. China, you are an ancient country; China, you are a beautiful land. China, do you know that the 2010 World Expo will be held here?

What? You already knew it!

It’s no wonder that during this period, people are busy working around as if they were on stimulants, and the smell of excitement can even be smelled in the air.

At the intersection, the big brothers holding small red flags worked very hard to maintain traffic. A lot of sweat flowed from their faces, but their dark faces still showed brilliant smiles. smile. On the street, several old ladies wearing red armbands were struggling to pick up rubbish. When they solemnly walked to the trash can and threw away the rubbish, their serious expressions and bright red armbands made the old ladies look like tall and straight trees. The ancient pine trees are covered with red cloth and fluttering in the wind. In the shopping mall, a group of immature children took firm steps and handed out leaflets in their sweaty little hands to every passerby. I was wondering: Why did the children also send out the annoying leaflets? But when I picked up a piece of paper and took a look, a blue sea treasure suddenly waved and smiled at me on the paper! I turned around happily, and a red face gave me a bright smile!

On the days leading up to the World Expo, people were full of energy and made Shanghai look civilized.

And how can I fall behind?

So, I picked up the broom and prepared to clean the corridor. But once the door was opened, the corridor was spotlessly clean.

I was shocked and dumbfounded: Could it be that the kind and hard-working snail girl came down to earth to benefit the world? Just as I was thinking about it, the aunt downstairs patted me on the shoulder and brought me back to the real world from my fantasy: "Hey, are you coming to sweep the stairs too? What a pity, what a pity, I just finished mopping the floor tiles and there is no dust left. "You kid, you should go use sandpaper to clean the wall!" The aunt behind her grinned, and I couldn't close my mouth, not only because of happiness, but also because of my sincere admiration!

In the days leading up to the World Expo, people are working hard to decorate our hometown, Shanghai. We should also do something within our power, such as protecting the environment around us, not using disposable chopsticks, etc... …Of course, we should not forget our “own job”—study.

Let us work together to welcome the World Expo!

5. Gradually, gradually... listen! The World Expo is getting closer; look! The preparations for the World Expo are getting better and better; smell! The flavor of the World Expo overflows in our lives... Let us follow its footsteps, accompany its changes, capture its breath and pursue it in the days of welcoming the World Expo...

In the days of welcoming the World Expo In these days, life has undergone many changes: the grass on the roadside seems to be greener, the flowers seem to be brighter, and the passion of the citizens has burst out.

At home, when the family eats, they often correct each other’s Mandarin accents. Sometimes they even show off a few words in English and compete to see who knows more about the World Expo. Everyone competes to be the first, not to be outdone, and enjoy themselves together.

In school, the busy study schedule seems unable to withstand the students’ passion for the Expo. Expo knowledge brochures, information leaflets, newspapers and periodicals such as Expo knowledge are all coming one after another. The school also holds an World Expo knowledge contest, and teachers have repeatedly selected students to participate in the highly popular essay contest.

But it is better to say progress than change. Social progress is the greatest. Nowadays, civilized communities are being built everywhere in Shanghai. Long flower beds have been built next to the uneven green trees. Cleaners often spray wash and trim the greenery. Promotion of the Expo is everywhere, and there are signs of the Expo on the buses. Little knowledge, good people give up their seats to the elderly and good things happen frequently; many images of Haibao are created on the lawn of the highway, seeming to observe the orderly traffic; there are also enthusiastic students next to the shops giving directions to foreigners...

During the summer vacation, I visited the models in the World Expo exhibition area. They are all representatives of previous World Expos, and they vividly display the concept of the World Expo. When I stand on the highest point of the Lupu Bridge and overlook Shanghai, I feel that it is so great. The long Huangpu River is sparkling. It is waiting for the World Expo, waiting for the World Expo to add splendid brilliance to it.

Yes, the World Expo is a big stage to show the progress of our civilization. The world has given China a chance, and Shanghai, China will definitely give back a surprise to the world. I believe that during the period of welcoming the World Expo, all of us will All the efforts you make will be rewarded perfectly.

Gradually... we saw the World Expo waving to us not far away...

6. "When Shanghai hosts the World Expo, I believe Shanghai will have a makeover. Shanghai will become more civilized." People become more qualified.”

This is what my father said.

But I don’t understand. Is the World Expo really so magical? I'm always dubious.

Time is passing quietly like water flowing from the gaps between our fingers. In the blink of an eye, the yellow plum season has become a thing of the past, the weather is refreshing again, and the sun's face is also much cheerful. Maybe my mood was affected by the weather. Even though today is Monday, I am not as lazy as before. I feel refreshed when I walk out of the house and go to school. Walking on the gravel road leading to the gate of the community, when I looked left and right, I saw two trees that I would silently greet in my heart like old friends every day. But today I noticed something strange, as if their backs straightened overnight, their leaves spread out, and they were in a good mood when they greeted me. Suddenly, I understood that today they were liberated - they were usually used by residents to dry their quilts. Today, the rope connecting them is missing. But I don't want to go into it, as long as my friend is free. I hope this will always be the case. A gust of wind blew, and the leaves made a "rustle" sound again. They were singing happily. I took a deep breath and felt the air was particularly fresh. "This is great!" I thought.

As soon as I arrived at the gate of the community, I saw an old lady, dressed in red, walking past in a hurry.

The doorman joked: "Grandma Wang, you are late today." "Yes, so I have to walk faster." I was very curious. In this outfit, it looks like he is going to dance, but so early? "These old ladies are so real. Going to dance is like doing something important." "Then you are wrong. You didn't see that each of them is very energetic and seems to be much younger. This is because they feel that they too I'm happy to be able to work hard for the Expo. You don't know how excited my family was when they came back yesterday. "Working hard for the Expo?" What does their dancing have to do with the World Expo? While I was walking mechanically in confusion, the melody of the song "Backgammon" suddenly came to me. I moved forward eagerly. What catches the eye is a large area of ??red, a red fan, red clothes and pants, and even a red ribbon on his head. It turned out to be some old ladies doing a fan dance. Come to think of it, the old lady just now must be in there too. Maybe it's still early, and they haven't jumped up neatly yet. Some of them are just practicing, twisting, and pressing their legs. It seems that everyone is busy. I believe that when they dance together later, it will be very graceful and magnificent.

Looking at this group of old people, but full of vitality, I understood their efforts to contribute to the success of the Expo by showing the spiritual outlook of our Shanghai old people.

I don’t know how many years I have been walking on this road from my home to school, but I can still see how many trees there are on the side of the road. Where is the cleanest place and where is the smell. But today this road felt both familiar and strange to me. Along the way, the road became clean and tidy. Some of the graffiti on the buildings disappeared. The paint on the guardrails was no longer gray or even peeling off quickly. The new paint was on The morning light was shining brightly, and even the flowers and grass on the roadside seemed to have been put on new clothes. Everything was full of vitality and hope. "There shouldn't be any festivals next, why is it that everything seems to be welcoming something?" I came to the school with confusion.

I walked into the classroom. As soon as I sat down, my deskmate stood up. At the end, I turned off all the lights in the classroom. I said strangely: "What are you doing? You turned on the light as soon as it was turned on, and you even ran over to turn it off." "The students who came to school early turned on the light because they thought the classroom was dark. Now that the classroom is so bright, there is no need to turn it on." "There are only a few lights, it doesn't matter," I said disapprovingly. "That's not what I say. Even if there are only a few lights, it is still a waste. Shanghai will host the World Expo next year. We should start from ourselves and start with small things to make our World Expo a success." It was a few words, but it made me blush.

In the evening, when I got home, we had dinner as usual. My parents and I chatted about the trivial matters of the day. I accidentally talked about today’s discoveries and doubts. But my mother blushed and said, "I have done this kind of thing before, but from now on, I will never dry myself in bed like this again." "Oh?" I looked at my mother in confusion. When my mother saw my expression, she seemed to have misunderstood. She hurriedly said: "The countdown to the World Expo has already entered. If I do this again, it will really be a disgrace to us Shanghainese." "Fortunately, we have entered the countdown to the World Expo." During the World Expo, when your mother was doing this, she wouldn't listen no matter what I said to her." Dad took the opportunity to joke. "You didn't say anything..." Looking at the "tit-for-tat" between my parents, what my father said back then inadvertently hit my heart. It was not until now that I truly understood the extraordinary significance of Shanghai's hosting of the World Expo for the first time.

The hosting of the World Expo is not just about showing the city’s economic construction, it covers all aspects, including the civilization, quality, and cultivation of our citizens... To successfully host the World Expo, it is also important for each of us to Shanghainese have an unshirkable responsibility.

In the days leading up to the World Expo

Expo is no longer an unattainable dream; World Expo has changed from an abstract term to something more and more important. It is becoming clearer and clearer; Expo, we are all changing for you, in the days leading up to the Expo.

Every morning, I bike to school, and I must pass that road every time. Although the road is relatively narrow and there are traffic jams during rush hours, I am used to everything on this road. Watching the trees on both sides of the road sprout buds in spring, form green shade in summer, and turn into patches of withered yellow in autumn.

The uncle who eats breakfast on the road every day, his steps are always in such a hurry; the auntie who is the cleaner, she works so hard every day, I can always see the clean road and her busy figure; and there are several elderly people , holding the vegetables they just bought in their hands, they loudly discussed what dishes to cook today and which supermarket was offering promotions. They sometimes also talked about interesting things about their families, and their laughter echoed in the air. Every plant, every tree, every person and thing on this road makes me feel so familiar and friendly.

This harmony was destroyed last year. One day, I was riding along that road as usual, and a yellow sign caught my attention. The general idea is that the road will be rebuilt for the construction of the World Expo and will be closed starting next week. What? Expo construction? Road closure? A series of questions increased my anger. Isn't the purpose of hosting the World Expo to improve the quality of life of citizens? Now that we have to close the road, won't it affect the lives of citizens? The road has been dug into potholes, which has brought more inconvenience to travel; the roadside is piled with cement bricks, dust is flying every day, and the fresh air is gone.

For the first time, my resistance and disgust towards the World Expo was so strong.

Finally, after hoping again and again and being disappointed again and again, I welcomed hope. A few months is not too long, but when I see the newly built road and ride my bicycle on the wider and flatter road, I feel as excited as a wanderer returning home.

The old people passed by me again, and this time, they changed the topic. "The government is so good! Although it was not convenient during the road construction period, the road is so wide now!" "Yes, we need our support to welcome the World Expo!" Listening to their discussion, I suddenly felt that I childish and selfish. I only thought about my own convenience and just complained blindly. I did not think about the hardships of the road construction workers, nor did I realize that in the days leading up to the World Expo, our understanding of all World Expo construction is the greatest support for the World Expo.

In the days leading up to the Expo, there will be joy, troubles, sweat and gains. As the World Expo approaches, all of this will become the best wishes for the World Expo - city, make life better!

8. The World Expo is getting closer and closer to us, and World Expo slogans and promotional slogans are all over the streets. The participation of all people in the Expo and sharing of the Expo has become the most popular theme.

As a member of society, our whole family participated in the activities to welcome the World Expo and gained unexpected happiness.

During the summer vacation, the community organized the "Family Come to the Game" art party to welcome the World Expo. As a community activist, my family responded positively.

Grandpa is an expert in painting. His task is to draw promotional prints for my family’s competition. The sea treasures of different shapes become lifelike under his pen. The living room is filled with Haibao, and it has become a Haibao exhibition hall. In the end, the work of three generations of Haibao holding hands to welcome the World Expo won. We were so impressed by our grandfather's painting skills that his interest in participating became even higher.

Mom’s entry is an introduction to the first two World Expos. My mother was very busy collecting information about the 2005 Aichi Expo in Japan and the 2008 Zaragoza Expo in Spain, making slides, selecting pictures, matching backgrounds, and writing introductions! Although busy, but very happy. During the simulated explanation at home, our whole family and neighbors became her first audience, and the promotion of World Expo knowledge started at my home. Knowledge is spreading and elements of happiness are spreading.

I am the main attacker in this competition. I participate in the World Expo Knowledge Competition and the main points are mine. There is no room for carelessness when shouldering a heavy responsibility. The scope of the Expo's knowledge is so vast that I was a little at a loss for the moment. My father gave me a lot of help. We found a lot of test questions from the Internet and newspapers. My father bought me the "Shanghai World Expo Citizen Reader" and took me to Huaihai Road to visit the World Expo exhibition hall and listen to the volunteers' speeches in person. Lectures. With these preparations, I feel more confident. I organized, sorted, and classified these materials, and the World Expo knowledge was finalized in my mind. Time is passing by day by day, and I don’t want my grandfather and mother’s efforts to go to waste. I am very happy to be immersed in these fields of World Expo knowledge every day! In the process of participating, I gained knowledge and happiness. I understand more about responsibility and the mutual care between relatives.

The results of the competition are of course satisfactory. In this event, many families showed their talents and used various forms to promote World Expo knowledge to community residents, allowing everyone to enjoy a meal at the World Expo. Big meal.

The results are not important. The key is that in the process of participation, we have a deeper understanding of the World Expo and its knowledge. Although I cannot make a greater contribution to this World Expo, as a member of society, it is everyone's obligation to participate in the promotion of World Expo knowledge.

I participate and I am happy.
