Dear members:
高雄市左派舞蹈協會在七月份有兩場的出國前的表演
會推介這支舞的原因是,有3/1的時間是有說書人出來說故事.
但是最主要的原因事故事是用英文而非國語.
這支舞名叫對弈,講的是項羽 劉備 虞姬的故事
想知道如何用英文來講這故事那就一定要去看喔!

2008/06/17 Roger Chen's C4 Speach
C4 speech (How to say it, 5 to 7 minutes) by Roger Chen
Title: Oh! Virus! Delivered on 2008/6/17(AMTC)
Objective:
• Select the right words and sentence structure to communicate your ideas clearly, accurately and vividly.
• Use rhetorical devices to enhance and emphasize ideas.
• Eliminate jargon and unnecessary words. Use correct grammar.
(Opening)
One day, you turn on your computer, and you found the computer starts acting differently, it getting slow and slow or you can see a window pop up with messages that you don’t understand. Warming! Your computer might infected by virus.
(Body)
Good evening, my dear fellow members,
What is a computer virus? A virus is a program that "infects" files in a computer. When one of infected files is opened, the virus will start working on your computer. The intention of virus is to cause chaos and destruction to the computer. Some viruses are relatively harmless, and will only delete some files from your hard drive. However some viruses are very dangerous, and can do permanent damage to your computer.
In addition, some viruses will duplicate itself, which enables it to infect other computers. Once a virus starts to spread, it can very quickly infect a large number of computers - creating a big problem all around the world. How do viruses spread from one computer to another? The majority of viruses are spread through e-mail attachments.
So the most simple and basic way to keep away from virus is not to open any attachment that you are uncertain about, even the mail is from your friends. Because many viruses 'steal' e-mail addresses from your Outlook or Yahoo address book, and then send themselves to all your friends in your address book. I suggest you can try the ‘Google mail’, it is the most powerful mail server I ever used. The gmail can block virus mails as well as garbage mails through its novel filter system. And the most exciting function to me is that you can open most office files, such as word files or excel files, without download them to your computer. The gmail will show the file content in your browser windows, that means you can minimize the risk from download files to your computer. The action ‘download’ will make chaos to your computer if you open a file with virus, so please don’t download files as possible as you can.
Another way to protect your computer away from virus, in my opinion, is to execute virus scan before you plug-in USB flash drives (we used called as big thumb). USB Flash drives have become popular during recent times. It is a convenient way to copy files from one computer to another, we used to copy mp3 or office files through USB Flash drives. So it is a good media to computer viruses and the Windows always auto execute files in flash drives when you plug-in. As consequence, the viruses will infect your computer. So, please do not use the autorun function in Windows.
(Conclusion)
Almost every computer has antivirus software but we still face the risk from viruses. Because new viruses are produced everyday, no one antivirus software can block or kill all viruses. Therefore, to keep good habits in computer use are very important. Many friends usually ask me : what is the ultimately way to avoid virus infection? My answer is: backup your files frequently! Once virus destroys your system, you still keep your files!

2008/05/06 Jenny Hung's C7 Speech
C7 speech（research your topic, 5 to 7 minutes） by Jenny Hung
Title: turn off the light Delivered on 2008/05/06
What is the global warming? Recently, this is the hot issue. The news widely report it, the scientists extensively research it, and we, the human being, notice it. In short, by burning fossil fuels such as coal and oil and cutting down forests, we have drastically increased the amount of carbon dioxide on atmosphere and make the temperatures risen. This is the global warming, and it will causes climate change involving extreme weather, epidemics and so on beyond anything we have ever experienced
In fact, we’re already seeing the changes. The flow of ice from glaciers has more than doubled over the past decade to let sea levels rise by more than 20 feet with the loss of shelf ice in Greenland and Antarctica. More than a million species worldwide could be driven to extinction, and the number of severe storms and droughts is increasing. All of those things are just parts of the changes we can see, but still something beneath the gloss of the changes that we don’t know.
2004, the movie, “The Day After Tomorrow”, depicted the catastrophic effects of global cooling. How could we face the nature's revenge? At that time, somebody would still think it was impossible and incredible.
2006, “An Inconvenient Truth”, former Vice President Al Gore delivered his speech to show the facts, the truth about global warming. He focused on a last-ditch, and paid all-out effort to help save the planet from irrevocable change. So far, his words are still ringing in our mind.
Global warming is real, and it’s already happening. Nowadays, global warming is not only about science, it is a political issue. It is a moral issue and we have a responsibility to do something. There are lots of ways to reduce global warming. For example, take transportation or ride bicycle to replace drive cars, use the fan not air-condition etc. But now, how many members ride bike here? We still drive and have air-conditioner.
There is a simple change I think it’s easy to do and that will collectively make a difference – turn off the light as soon as you don’t need it. On March 31st 2007, Sydney made a powerful statement about the greatest contributor to global warming by turning off the lights for one hour. Over 2.2 million Sydney residents and over 2,100 businesses switched off, leading to a 10.2% energy reduction across the city. We call it as “Earth Hour”. Earth Hour uses the simple action of turning off the lights for one hour to deliver a powerful message about the need for action on global warming.
It’s easy, right? Just turn off the light before we leave or when we are not using it. Do it now, we have the power to make a difference to solve this problem. In fact, we have moral obligation to do so. Small changes to our daily routine can make big differences by helping stop global warming. Now is the time. Take the action- Turn off the Light
