北京中加学校庆祝建国七十周年系列：初二年级长沙研学旅行(二)

　　10月27号，小雨转中雨，师生心情大好，今天我们一天的行程都是在雨中度过的，蒙蒙细雨中，我们感受着浓浓的湖湘文化。

　　今天的第一站是韶山，韶山是伟大领袖的故乡，也是他青少年时期生活，学习，劳动和从事革命活动的地方，第一项，我们来到了铜像广场，全体师生举行献花篮仪式，缅怀伟人，在主持人的的引领下，全体师生跟随兵哥哥矫健的步伐，一步步坚定的走在红毯上，敬献花篮，向伟人鞠躬!这样的经历让学生们具有强烈的仪式感，激发学生的爱国热情。

　　To celebrate the 70th anniversary of the foundation of the People’s Republic of China, to follow the footsteps of great men and to inherit the spirit of revolution, students of Grade 8 traveled to Changsha. (Day 2)

　　It rained the whole day, but teachers and students are in a good mood. In the drizzle, we shared the strong Hunan culture. The first stop of today is Shaoshan, which is the hometown of the great leader Zedong Mao and where the great man spent his teenage life, studied, worked and engaged in revolutionary activities. First, we went to visit the Bronze Statue Square, where with the lead of the host, all the teachers and students followed the soldiers, firmly walked on the red carpet step by step, offered flower basket respectfully and bowed to the great man! The experience inspired students’ strong patriotic enthusiasm.

　　故居，在此了解到孩提时代的故事，了解到其衣食住行的乡土文化，进一步了解到湖湘文化的精髓，对学生的爱国主义情怀教育起到了关键作用。

　　Then we visited the former residence of Zedong Mao, where we learned the story of his childhood and the local culture. We further understood the essence of Huxiang culture, which played a key role in the education of students’ patriotism.

　　午饭过后我们来到了的母校-东山书院，别具风雅的内院，简单古朴的教室都展示了这个曾经孕育了一代伟人的书院独特的气韵，给全体师生留下了深刻的印象，对启发学生的学习兴趣，激发学生的学习热情起到了至关重要的作用，意义深远。

　　After lunch we went to Zedong Mao’s primary school---Dongshan Academy, which has the elegant yard. The simple and primitive classrooms show the unique artistic conception, which gave birth to the great man. It left a deep impression to all the teachers and students and has played a vital role in inspiring students’ interest in learning and stimulating students’ enthusiasm for learning.

　　今天的行程在一个安静的自习后画上了完美的句号，好好休息，明天又是美好的一天。

　　Today’s journey ended up with a perfect full stop in a quiet self-study. Have a good rest, and tomorrow will be a beautiful day.
