【冠军视频+独家专访】陈麒羽：从江苏亚军到全国冠军背后的秘密
3月26日，第22届中国日报社“21世纪·可口可乐杯”全国英语演讲比赛总决赛的舞台上，最后一位（海外选手除外）出场的选手白色衬衣加一袭红裙，外表素净淡雅，却因声音的力量焕发着夺目耀眼的光芒。
自信、张扬、激情，是站在演讲台上的她给人最直观的感受。然而这位冠军选手却将平日里的自己定位为一个安静的人。她调侃抽到最后一位签的自己相对于其他选手最大的优势是运气，但其实从三年级参加第一场演讲比赛开始她从无数实战中总结出了相当实用的临场技巧。对语言的纯熟掌握让她能到直接而深刻地接触西方世界，然而聊到个人爱好她却对京剧这门中国传统文化情有独钟。
她是“21世纪杯”全国英语演讲比赛冠军陈麒羽。
感性+理性
从幼儿园开始学习英语，陈麒羽觉得英语是一件很有意思的事儿，能和外国人聊天很“酷炫”。从三年级的首次登台到“21世纪杯”，她参加过大大小小十五次英语演讲比赛，对于演讲的各种套路有着自己驾轻就熟的各种招式。她的观点是已备演讲和即席演讲采取感性加理性的方式：已备演讲体现情感，穿插幽默点，让听众感同身受，即席演讲则从理性出发，力求逻辑清晰。
“已备演讲的话题通常是那种很有深度的，可以做成论文来剖析的主题，要分析透彻需要长篇大论，演讲台上的三四分钟显然远远不够。”于是比赛中面对“Globalization: Enough is enough?”的“大”话题，她以自身祖孙三代的例子，生动风趣地向大家阐释了她对于“全球化”这一概念的理解。对于很多人最犯怵的问答环节，陈麒羽给出了两种思路：要么以逻辑取胜，构建框架，要么侧重谈自己的个人感受。
阅读的力量
陈麒羽高中时就曾参加过“21世纪杯”，遗憾惜败于来自同一学校的选手获得江苏亚军，错失参加全国总决赛的机会。从省亚军到全国冠军，陈麒羽将这一飞跃性进步归结于课堂教育和阅读的力量。“我们清华外文系特别注重阅读，大一时就读了《中国哲学简史》和《西方哲学史》。”陈麒羽谦虚地表示并没有读透彻这些书，但大量的阅读充分锻炼了自己的逻辑思辨能力。
英语研究的另一种可能
“21世纪杯”是一项赛事，更是一个机会，一个窗口。参加本届比赛之前，陈麒羽对未来的规划是读博、搞学术。比赛之后她对未来有了很多新想法，特别是在思享会听到夏鹏和刘欣的发言，她发现其实英语研究并不是单纯的理论，也可以和社会接轨，比如夏鹏创业，刘欣做主持人。目前她正在申请大三去美国交换学习。“文化差异会导致语言习惯的不同。”所以她计划去英语的母语国家呆一段时间，以西方的思维习惯去打磨自己的英语水平。

演讲稿：
Globalization: enough is enough?
My grandpa was among the first group of English teachers sent to Australia by the Chinese government in the 1980s, when our country first opened its door. Off the plane, a hospitable Australian taxi driver asked him, “Where are you going today?” “Where to die?” My grandpa was shocked. With very limited access to authentic English, he had no idea of the Australian pronunciation for the word “today”.
My mom was much luckier in the 1990s when she went to college. She had recorded tapes of BBC and VOA news to listen to. When she stepped on the soil of England, she was much more confident. The first day after arrival, hungry and tired after a long flight, and with a Chinese stomach longing for hot food and drink, her only wish was to have a big breakfast. The British waitress approached her asked with a British accent completely comprehensible to her well trained ear, “Madam, would you like a Continental breakfast or an English breakfast?” Well, the European continent is much bigger than England, so must be the breakfast. She responded: “Continental Breakfast, please.” The waitress took the order and Mom was very satisfied about herself until she discovered the tiny breakfast of cold milk and iced juice, instead of fried bacon and also fried sausages.
I went to an American university for a summer program last year. After watching a movie, I decided to take a bus back to my apartment. However the bus didn’t arrive as scheduled. After waiting for about 20 minutes in the darkness, I was very uneasy and also scared. I stood there, staring into the direction which the bus should come from. But there was no bus but a street singer singing some unknown songs with his noisy guitar. The wind brought a feeling of chill, and as more and more stores closed and fewer and fewer people passed by, I couldn’t help shivering in the cold darkness. Suddenly, a piece of familiar music flowed into my ear. It was the best-known Chinese folk song: the Jasmine Flower! He was playing the Jasmine Flower with his guitar. Automatically, I tuned my Chinese ears to the familiar and nostalgic melody, with my heart warmed and my eyes wet. He played that music again and again until the bus came and I went aboard .
From strangeness, misunderstanding to cross cultural resonance, it takes three generations. The driving force behind the change is globalization, which offers opportunities for cultures to meet, to break down barriers between countries, and to bring peoples together. When the Chinese folk song played by an American street singer got me through coldness and fear, I also came to realize that intimate connection brought about by globalization and also cross cultural resonance can also help the world get through difficulties and disputes.
Ladies and gentlemen, if you would ask me whether globalization is enough, I will definitely say “no”. Globalization is a powerful force available to us, enabling people to communicate, to help, and to warm, just like what the American street singer did to me at that cold and dark night.
