日前，我校五年级开展的外语节“中国精神”英文主题演讲活动落下帷幕。该活动指向提高学生的英语核心素养，充分发挥学生的主体能动作用，释放自身潜能，在积极探究中发展思维能力。全年级共有40余名学生参与演讲初选，历时两周时间，共15名学生脱颖而出。    

活动中，学生积极搜集资料、广泛学习语言，反复练习演讲，有效地提升了综合语言运用能力。在演讲过程中，学生们有的聚焦顽强拼搏的奥运体育精神，有的关注勇于攀登科学高峰的航天精神，有的弘扬万众一心众志成城的抗疫精神，有的歌颂敢为人先的科学家探索精神。这些榜样激发了学生们的学习斗志，深化了爱国主义情怀。让我们共同欣赏一下学生们的演讲作品吧！

杂交水稻之父袁隆平热爱祖国、朴实无华的高贵品质，勇于创新、勇攀高峰的科学家精神不断激励着五年级（3）班的刘乐意。

白衣执甲，医药为兵，钟南山亲自挂帅出征一线，既有国士的担当，又有战士的勇猛；这样无私奉献、无畏牺牲的精神深深鼓舞着五年级（1）班的史诺同学。

今年2月，中国成功举办了2022北京冬奥会。奥林匹克运动精神内涵丰富，更快更高更强更团结的奥运精神在北京冬奥会中体现得淋漓尽致。五年级（9）班徐圣尧、五年级（1）班的潘邦文、五年级（3）班的冯睿宸为大家讲述了鼓舞人心的中国奥运精神。

本届残奥会上，运动员们身残志坚，勇敢超越，顽强拼搏的精神深深感动了五年级（1）班后爱同学。

中国上下五千年的历史，像一首古老的诗篇。古有屈原“路漫漫其修远兮，吾将上下而求索”的执著，文天祥“人生自古谁无死，留取丹心照汗青”的赤诚；今有疫情面前钟南山“捐躯赴国难，视死忽如归”的英雄气概。北京冬奥会完美体现了“双奥之城”的大气，大国气魄挺起了中国人的脊梁。来听一听五年级（4）班的周辰雨的激情演讲！

“神州十三”成为中国航天新的里程碑，我国步伐坚定地迈向太空强国。中国载人航天精神，是艰苦奋斗的精神；中国载人航天精神，是勇于攻坚的精神；中国载人航天精神，是开拓创新的精神！五年级（4）班辛子萱为我们讲述中国航天精神！

通过本次活动，学生们不仅积累了丰富的英语语言知识，还能够在相互切磋和交流中集思广益，相互促进！徐圣尧、史诺在活动后记录了自己的收获和感受。

During the winter vacation, I watched the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics with great excitement. China has achieved the best result in history at this Winter Olympic Games. I was very proud of it!

Last month, my English teacher told us, there would be a public speaking competition about expressing the spirit of China to the world. Immediately, one of the outstanding athletes named Eileen Gu came to my mind. The 18-year-old skier has dominated the year’s Olympics like no one else. Without a doubt, I wanted to tell her story to my classmates.

In my speech, I told my classmates that Eileen Gu is not only an excellent athlete, but also a super scholar, she trains and studies very hard, and she also has shown tremendous mental fortitude, which are the real Chinese spirit.

My speech met with warm applause from my classmates, at that moment, I realized that my classmates had been touched by the real Chinese spirit. Meanwhile, I understood the meaning of the speech.

What a fantastic experience!                                                                                                                             Shengyao Xv, Class 9 Grade 5

“We live in an increasingly powerful new China, and there are countless precious spiritual wealth.” That‘s the summary of my whole speech, “Express China to the world”.

Last month, I heard that our school is going to hold up a speech contest and my teacher asked me if I’d like to take part in. I was really excited when I knew that and decided to try.

I choose one or two famous people from the big events that is happening now like :Academician Zhong Nanshan and President Zhang Dingyu, who were fighting against the epidemic in the front line; Chinese athlete Wu Dajing, who has the belief that shows the Chinese team spirit; And also our hybrid rice expert, Yuan Longping. They are only the ones who’s famous, but there are also lots and lots of nameless heroes.

When I give the speech to my class, it achieved a success. I learned a lot from it and it was an amazing experience that will always be remembered in my mind.
