英语演讲稿:Farewell, Indifference

Farewell, Indifference

Who was the most well-known figure in China last month? Its Ma JiaJuethe college student who murdered 4 of his roommates. Many people attributed his crime to his poverty and deficient education. In my opinion, his crime also has much to do with his classmates indifference.

Indifference is a terrible disease in todays colleges and the whole society. Its not rare that two students who have studied together for 4 years have never spoken to each other. Its not rare that a student who has been absent from class for several days is not noticed at all. Its also not rare that a student who has severe psychological problems is not cared about at all.

Some people may say What the students with psychological problems like Ma JiaJue need is not care but psychotherapy. However, when people are ill, what they need most is not only medical treatment, but also care from people around them. Every smile and every caring word will bring sunshine to their life.

I once heard one of my roommates who was an introverted girl sobbing at mid-night. Being afraid of disturbing her, I sent a text message to comfort her. The next day, she told me that she was crying for not being invited to one of her friends birthday party. She thought she was neglected by others. But my message was really comforting which told her someone still cared about her.

What can we do to prevent the tragedy of Ma JiaJue from happening again? Some people may say Lets open more psychological courses in schools. and other people may say Lets donate more money for the poor students. But Ill say My fellow student, lets give more love and care to our roommates, our classmates and every person around us!
