新故相推,日生不滞,凉秋暮晚,周盈始盛。在九月不算凉爽的秋风中,协和双语学校七年级的新生们,迎来了期待已久的军训。

New and old things change and do not remain stagnant over time. The hottest weather is over the temperatures are starting to turn cooler and it is the most beautiful autumn day with the best moon. In the not-so-cool autumn breeze of September, the new S7 students of SUIS HF welcomed the long-awaited military training.

 

 

烈日灼灼,操场上一眼望去,是穿着整齐的学生队列,是身姿飒爽的教官身影,是洋溢的青春气息。本以为这样毒辣的阳光,会给同学们一个大大的下马威,会让他们产生逃避、退缩的心理。但可喜的是,怯弱、易弃等这些代名词在军训下一步步地转变为坚强、勇敢。

The scorching sun, a glance from the playground, is neatly dressed students in formation, is the valiant figure of the instructor, is overflowing with youthfulness. We thought that such a hot sunshine would give students a big downward spiral, which would make them have the psychology of escaping and retreating. However, it is encouraging to note that these synonyms such as timid and weak, easy to give up, etc. have been transformed step by step into strength and bravery under the military training.

 

风拂过,热浪袭来,但操场上时而是教官循循善诱的教导声,时而是学生如地震般的踏步声,时而是学生穿云裂石的口号声。他们笔直地立在训练场上,站如松,就连夏日撒下的阳光都显得黯淡几分。

The wind is blowing, the heat wave is coming, but on the playground is sometimes the sound of the instructor’s teaching, sometimes it is the sound of the students’ footsteps like earthquakes, sometimes it is the sound of the students’ slogans through the clouds and rocks. They stand straight on the training ground, standing like a pine, even the summer sunshine seems to be a little bit dim.

 

 

苏轼有云:古之立大事者,不惟有超世之才,亦必有坚忍不拔之志。艰苦的环境最能磨砺坚强的品格,修炼超凡的气质。

Su Shi has a saying: Since ancient times, anyone who has done great things not only has outstanding talent, but also must have the will of perseverance. Tough environments are best for sharpening strong character and cultivating extraordinary temperament.

 

经过一番训练,同学们在军训最后一天的汇报演出中,完美完成了队列动作。喻霞校长看过后,非常欣慰,鼓励同学们:今日沙场点兵,明日学海泛舟。愿同学们在今后的学习、生活中,能够延续军人的优秀品质,乘风破浪,直挂云帆!

After a lot of training, the students perfectly completed the formation movement in the debriefing performance on the last day of military training. Principle Wendy Yu was very pleased after seeing the performance and encouraged the students: Today we are on the battlefield, tomorrow we will be sailing on the sea of learning. May the students continue the excellent qualities of soldiers in their future study and life, riding the wind and waves, and sailing on the clouds!

 

 

“天将降大任于斯人也,必先苦其心志,劳其筋骨,饿其体肤,空乏其身,行拂乱其所为,所以动心忍性,曾益其所不能。”作为一名新时代的青年,军训是我们成长中的必修课。不仅能增强体魄,锻炼意志,而且还能让我们懂得“国家兴亡,匹夫有责”的道理,明白军人对于一个国家与民族的意义。唯有不怕苦,不怕累才能锻炼出一份坚韧不拔的毅力,成为一名合格的社会主义接班人!

“In order for heaven to send a great mission upon such a man, it is necessary first to afflict his heart, to strain his sinews and bones, to subject him to hunger, to make him suffer poverty, and to make him work without success. After this way his heart is convulsed, his character is strengthened, and his talents are increased which he does not have.” As a new era of youth, military training is a necessary course in our growth. Not only can enhance physical fitness, exercise will, but also allows us to understand “every civilian is responsible for the rise and fall of the nation” reasoning, understand the significance of the military for a country and the nation. Only by not being afraid of suffering, not being afraid of tiredness can we exercise a perseverance and become a qualified successor to socialism!

 

追风赶月莫停留,平芜尽处是春山!

When striving, don’t be obsessed with the scenery of the journey. When pursuing the goal, do not stop, even if there are still many obstacles with the goal, efforts will be rewarded, spring mountain is at the end of the flat barren.
