Whichshouldreceivepriorityinchina,economicgrowthorenvironmentalprotection?正方一辩:从人类发展的终极目标看,我们要彻底地解决环境问题,必须要标本兼治。要治本,必须优先发展经济,从根本上优化经济结构堵住产生环境问题的源头,要治标,同样要优先发展经济,为解决眼前的环境问题提供技术、资金等支持,只有这样,才能为人类生存和发展提供环境保障。Fromtheultimategoalofhumandevelopment,weneedtoaddressboththesymptomsandrootcausestosolvetheenvironmentalproblemsthoroughly.Toeffectapermanentcure,wemustgivefirstprioritytothedevelopmentofeconomy,andoptimizetheeconomicstructurefundamentallytoblockthesourceoftheenvironmentproblems;Totaketemporarysolution,wealsoshouldgiveprioritytothedevelopmentofeconomy,sothatwehavethetechnology,capitalandothersupportsforsolvingtheenvironmentalproblems.Onlyinthiswaycanenvironmentprotectionbeprovidedforhumansurvivalanddevelopment.反方一辩:经济发展是指社会能够提供丰裕的商品来改善人类的物质生活,环境保护则是采取一定的政策措施来保护生态平衡。经济要发展意味着企业需要更多的厂房与原材料来保障商品的供应——那便存在一个问题:自然分给人类的土地与原材料是有限,经济优先发展就一定会侵占原本不属于人类的自然资源。Theeconomicdevelopmentreferstosocietycanprovideabundantcommoditytoimprovehumanmateriallife;environmentalprotectionistotakecertainpolicymeasurestoprotecttheecologicalbalance.economicdevelopmentmeansthatcompaniesneedmoreworkshopandrawmaterialstoensurethesupplyofgoods——thenthereisaproblem,thatisnaturelandandrawmaterialstohumanislimited,economicprioritydevelopmentwilloccupynatureresourceswhichoriginallydonotbelongtothehuman.二辩盘问Twodebatequestioned反方二辩:请问对方二辩,经济是一时之事,环境是万代之事,哪个重要?经济发展慢了,人们还可以吃到饭,环境没了,还能生存吗?Myfellowdebaters,pleaseallowmetoask.Theeconomyisthetemporarymatter,buttheenvironmentisofthetenthousandgeneration,whichoneismoreimportant?WhenEconomicdevelopsslowly,peoplecanalsoeatrice;howcanwestillsurviveifthereisnoenvironment.正方二辩:不好意思对方辩友,恐怕我们今天讨论的重点是优先权。并不是说经济优先就不搞环保了,只是环保处于较次的位置,跟中国现状一样,政策虽然说要重视环保,但一般县区还是经济发展优先的,也就有资本的大城市才比较重视搞环保,相信大家心知肚明Sorry,I'mafraidthekeypointswedebatetodayaretherightofpriority.Economydevelopmentfirstdoesnotmeantotallyignoretheenvironmentalprotection,theenvironmentalprotectionisjustintheinferiorposition.JustlikethepresentChina,althoughthepolicyattachgreatimportancetoenvironmentalprotection,economicdevelopmentreceivepriorityinthegeneralcounties,thereisonlycapitalcitieswouldlikelytakeitseriouslytoenvironmentalprotection,everybodyknowitinourownheart.反方二辩:请问正方三辩,如果发展经济优先的话,很可能造成环境成本大于经济效益的情况,这样的经济是发展还是倒退?Excuseme,myfellowdebaters.Ifeconomicdevelopmentreceivesprioritythenitislikelytocausetheenvironmentalcoststobelargerthantheeconomicefficiency,sucheconomydevelopsorbacksup?正方三辩:这种情况确实有存在,但并不是每时每刻都存在。各个行业情况不同,我们不能以偏概全。但按你的意思,这种情况下经济效益是负的,那我们改行环境保护优先,就能转亏为盈?我不这么觉得。Thiskindofsituationistheretruly,butnoteverymoment.Thesituationineachindustryisdifferent;wecannotdrawconclusionsfromonepart.Butaccordingtoyourpoint,inthiscasetheeconomicbenefitisnegative,thenifwechangedenvironmentfirst,wecanturnitintoprofit?Idon'tthinkso.正方二辩:我们知道环境的保护是预防为主,防治结合,而预防和治理都要依靠技术的发展,那请问对方二辩,如果没有强有力的经济基础支持科学技术发展,那么以科技为支撑的环保从何谈起呢?Weknowthattheprotectionoftheenvironmentismainlyprevention,andweshouldcombinepreventionwithtreatment,andthepreventionandcontroldependsonthedevelopmentoftechnology,thenmyfellowdebaters,ifthereisnostrongeconomicbasisforscienceandtechnologydevelopment,thendon’tmentiontheenvironmentalprotectionsupportedbythescienceandtechnology.反方二辩:你的问题未免抽象了点。科技发展无止尽,经济发展也没尽头,什么时候算得上是“强有力”呢?但是环境保护是迫在眉睫,耽误不起。Yourquestionisalittleabstract.Scienceandtechnologydevelopsendlessly,sodoseeconomicdevelopment,whenwillitbeconsideredas“strong?Butenvironmentalprotectionisimminent,whichcan'taffordtodelay.正方二辩:请问反方三辩,经济发展是让人们享受到丰富的生活内容,包括衣食住行娱乐,这难道不是现在社会上人们的普遍愿望吗?Excuseme,myfellowdebaters.Theresponsibilityofeconomicdevelopmentistoletpeopleenjoyarichlife,includingthebasicnecessitiesandentertainment,isn'titnowthepeople'suniversaldesire?反方三辩:人们喜欢的期望的不一定都是好的。我相信,人们更倾向于在一个既能享受到生活乐趣,同时又是一个健康和谐自然的环境中生存。People`sexpectationisnotnecessarilythatgood.Ibelievethatpeopletendtoliveinalifeofhappiness,andatthesametime,surviveinahealthyandharmoniousnaturalenvironment自由辩论正方一辩:请问对方辩友,原始社会的人类祖先们环境保护工作做得可谓好了吧,而他们经济发展很落后,所所以才一直过着钻木取火、茹毛饮血的生活,按你们的意思我们应该回归这种生活吗?Excuseme,myfellowfriends.Intheprimitivesociety,humanancestor`senvironmentalprotectionworkisgood,buttothemEconomicdevelopmentisverybackward,soithasbeenlivingalifeoftheearliestpeople,shouldwereturntothiskindoflifeaccordingtoyourmeaning?反方一辩:人类祖先确实需要发展经济,但若是在这个过程中砍完了森林,污染了河流,使衣食都不再有保障,恐怕也无法发展下去了。我想问的是,核电站是经济发展的产物,但众所周知,几次核电站的泄漏带来了环境的极度恶化,请问你怎么看?Humanancestorsdoneedtodeveloptheeconomy,butifcutouttheforests,pollutetheriver,makingFoodandclothingarenolongerguaranteedinthisprocess,I’mafraiditcannotdevelopanylonger.WhatIwanttoaskis,nuclearpowerstationistheoutcomeoftheeconomicdevelopment,butitiswellknownthatafewtimesnuclearpowerleakagehasbroughttheenvironmentextremelyworsened,whatdoyouthinkofit?正方二辩:首先,我方并没有承诺经济发展就一定会破坏到环境;其次,对方所说的情况只是凤毛麟角;第三,核电站泄漏是科技不力,而经济是科学研究的基础。First,wehaveneverpledgethattheeconomicdevelopmentcertainlywilldestroytheenvironment;second,thesituationyousaidisonlyrare;third,nuclearpowerstationleakagebecausethetechnologyisnotstrong.Buteconomyisthefoundationofscientificresearch.反方二辩:但是核电站可以再建,那些污染了的土地和地下水怎么办?没有了这些,我们的生活怎么办?你愿意生活在核电站附近,还是一片山清水秀之间?Butthenucl
