Distinguished leaders, students:

　　Hello everyone! The topic of my speech today is "Xia spirit inspire me forever".

　　During the summer vacation, I read "why Xu Xiake in contemporary popular" this book, this book is for us to delineate the true image of Xu Xiake and his famous legend, he has made great achievements, I see the benefit.

　　Xu Xiake is Jiangyin people, China Ming travelers, geographers, essayist. China to travel as the first mission in life.

　　He after 30 years of writing 60 words "the travels of Xu Xiake", opened up a new direction for natural, natural observation system on geography; both systematic investigation of geological geographical classics country landform, and describe the Chinese landscape tourism resources giant article, or text graceful literature work, has the profound influence in China outside. "The travels of Xu Xiake" as the main achievement of Xu Xiake's life in diary form, a detailed record of the what one sees and hears his travel career, including the mountains and rivers, climate, custom and human feelings, both literary, but also has the important scientific value. Description of China, karst limestone area in the book detailed system, and it is the earliest one on the karst landscape works. A man, a book, Xu Xiake to his feet of life measure, but also write an eternal legend.

　　The scientific spirit of his seek truth from facts worthy of our study.

　　He Months and years pass by., regardless, climb the mountains, go in the wilderness, not only accept the ordeal of nature but also from time to time by the various human factors challenges. Study on the trip, Xu Xiake had three stolen, four of food, to the "no" wire ", hungry. However, these difficulties are nothing to shake Xu Xiake's will and faith. He is still firm and indomitable spirit to complete the southwest motherland long study. In extremely difficult circumstances, some people have been in good faith to persuade Xu Xiake not to risk going to inspect, or as early as possible go. If he went back to his hometown of words, they can be prepared for. Xu Xiake is as important to the cause, and unswervingly said: "if I encounter difficulties on the end of investigation to return home, to come back after the investigation, the wife and her children will not agree. I will continue to study cannot change.

　　Xu Xiake persevere, not afraid of difficulties of the dauntless spirit, it is fundamental to the success he achieved. Xia spirit each of us should be Chinese should have the spirit, no matter what industry you are in, what kind of work. Only in this way because we have ability to go beyond themselves, beyond the others. Our country to progress, our life can be happier.

　　We have a beautiful dream of their own, want to have a happy life, our young people is the lack of the spirit of Xu Xiake. Most people are not willing to endure hardship, just want to "free ride, attain the highest level in one step," I think one's success is a few shortcuts! We have to learn from Xu Xiake, a friend and problems, more, I firmly believe that: only through wind and rain, to see the rainbow! Let Xia spirit will always inspire me to go forward!

　　Finished my speech, thank you!
